We left Philadelphia on Tuesday at
1 Molook, arriving in New York about
2.90, going direct to the Holland House,
where we stayed until next morning.
The Holland House isn't so large as the
Waldorf-A..4mA, but as my companion
remarked in her own peculiar eament,
"Yon cannot make a mistaketin coming
to the Holland Houpe-it is immensely
proper." When I signed a ohs& for my
own dinner for $5,95 that night, I
thought it ought to be "immensely
proper" for I ordered a very eimple din-
ner in order to be economical for the
family, far they instated on securing a
room for me alone -they are ahvays do-
ing things like that. They had friends
to dinner that night, and you oan
imagine what it course dinner for four
would coat at that rate.
Next morning we drove to the wharf
and when the gang plank was lifted.
Hrs. R. flame around and said :-"Well,
they can't get you now -you're off to
Europe um until September," for we
were all sure that the eubstitute for the

The "Teutonic" is it nice little boat,

be and 1 haven't had the slightest no-
tices of being gerteick. The first day out
we made 415 miles ; eeeond day, 421
miles; thira day, 416 miles, and yester-
day in the face of a good N. E, wind, 434
miles. The paesengere walk about the
deok for exercise, morning, noon ana
nigIst. People who never think of get-
ting up and going for a witlk before
breakfast at home, rise and religiously
promenade the deck for half au hour or
more before going to the dining room.
Onr second day out we sailed into a
regular "sollool" of whales; their spouts
oould be seen on all aidee and everybody
wall gazing over the rail watching the
monstere oome to the eurface to breathe
and then dealt off after their frightened
prey -porpoises -which we saw darting
through the water with lightning -like
rapidity. It created a great, deal of ex-
oitement and was a pleasant break in
Otto monotony.
The third day was of still greater in-
terest, The sky was dull and leaden in
appearance and it looked as though rain
would surely fall. Juat after luncheon
X looked out of my stateroom and away
to the North I saw a white etreak seem-
ingly come out of the olouda and get
larger and larger. Soon everyone saw
it, and a sailor ventbred the information
that it was a "water -spout." Later an-
other broke about three miles away and
we could see it very plainly so it must
'have been of immense size, and in 70 few
minutes we all shauted, ''Look out I

Savoy Hotel, Embankment Gardens,
London, July 8th.
Dear Horne Folk 2-0.0 yon see frorn
Otto above. I have arrived in the o a old
oily of London, and have seated myself
to write you about the rest of my voyage.
We had a delightful trip, the weather
was all that could be deeired, and tbe
ocean at times was almost as smooth
as a sheet of glaes. The 4th of July
was celebrated on board by the Amer -
Mans present, in the usual way, minus
Otto fireoracke.s. It wae ended by a "tug
of war," eix Americans againet six
Englishmen- and excitement ran ht.&
aud wheu at the aid of the first Mel,
Otto Amerioans pulled the Englishmen
over the line the cheers went up from
many loyal throats, and one big fat
American whom I heard arty be weighed
195 pounde, ran out and threw hie arma
about the neck of their "auohor"
big fellow 6 foot 3 inches tall and
weighing about 225 pounds-aud (Moot-
ed, "Olt Billy you're the stuff I" "Billy"
pioked him up in emit arms and lifted
him about three feet off the deck and
we all laughed, even two young English-
men who had looked pretty glum. Mre.
It. came 'wound and said "Oh -you
aren't cheering are you ?"-"My turn is
coining Mrs. R., and if it doesn't, I'd
rather be dofoatel with old England
them win with Uncle Sam, good fellow
thoogh he is," said I.
But my turn did come when they
°hanged places, and I followed them
down the deok and cheered too, with
my two glum Englishmen at my side,
and sure enough the Yanks had to come,
"Billy" too, little by little, while we
shouted -"they're corning boys, you've
got them I" until we were hoarse. Yon
oan imagine the excitement at the 3rd
trial. A celebrated lawyer of New
York, who is English by birth and had
shown little interest in the eports called
to a more athletic fellow than himself ;
-"Say, going to poll ?" "Yea, think
so." "Well here take my rubber soled
shoes, they bold bettee than youre.''
And off oame the shoes and on they went
on the feel of hie friend. I told him to
keep Mrs. It. in her chair while I went
to see how it came oft; at first it seemed
pretty even but those title thick set,
musonlar inglishmen hung on like bull
dogs, and when eve saw the first sign of
Otto tag coming over to their side we
raised an encouraging shout; I beard a
tense "Pull boys pull, for Heaven's sake
pull I" and looking around I eaw one of
my glum friends bending over the guard
rope with white face and alinched hands,
evidently oompletelyl lost to everything
but that game. We won just the same,
and I got my shout in after all and I
told Mr. W. that hie shoes did it -
"They never did better work" said be,
and then he told me that he used to own
O villa at Alexandria Bay. "And say do
you know I used to row over to Brook-
ville jug to see a Union Jack?" Here
he was a reeident of New 'York for 15
years, married to one of New York's
eFonr Hundred," all of his ioterests in
U. S. and yet deep down in his heart he
was loyal to that libels sea girt island.
At dinner that night the Oaptain asked
no all to rise and :dog ',My country 'tie
of Thee" and they did -Then someone
proposed "God save the King" and one
more we sane. Toasts to President
Roosevelt and King Edward VII follow.
