IMrolt lust year had as good a time In Bos
toil, lutt iierhaps that may bo arc )lliittil for
from tliu fact that ho did not quite know
how to go alxHit securing It, for fashion and
custom, It Ih said, art) not alike In the east
and west. We of tho went seem to have the
reputation of being enormously hospitable,
not so conservative nor itilto as stltr as our
eastern friends and relatives. Yet originally
we were all easterners, but we have liecomo
accustomed to having the "stranger within
our gates" and liecomu educaU'd to tho popu
lar Idea of booming and building up our
towns and cities, thereby endeavoring to win
every stranger, to make a resident of him.
In Iloston and the east this state ol affair
does not exist. They do not find It necessary
to look out for strangers. The uverngo visi
tor has no intention of locating nor does tho
average Bostouian core whether ho does.
The city Is large enough and If tho induce
ments are not sulllclent they let him seek
elsewhere he will never bo missed. The
people are very sociable when once acquaint
ed, but they are slow to mako friends and
perhaps its better too lu the end. Thiscoi
dial welcome that everyone receives in the
west almost regardless of past social qualifi
cations often leads to unfortunate results.
Iloston people are rather jmrtlcular who they
meet, when and where, and it is thus that
they have established the reputation abroad
for being cold and clannish. Yet who can
suy tlmt it friend at the hub Is not as warm
and true as anywhere else.
The members of the national editoiiul
association were entertalnl by tho member
of tho city prest, with tho aid of perhaps it
few olllcials such as the governor and muydr.
It was plainly visible that as for the citizens
in general, no great amount of attention was
liestowed upon the visitors and In this re
spect the contrast between that meeting and
tho one at Detroit, last year, wasvery mark
ed. At the latter place everyone seemed
greatly Intel ested In seeing that the editors
wero royally welcomed and nothing was too
good for them. Hut that does not signify
any personal feeling In tho matter sim
ply the difference In customs of the two sec
tions. However, the undivided attention of
tho gentlemanly members of the Boston press
club made up in it measure for all that might
have been missing elsewhere In the program
of tho occasion, and between the very clever
entertainers, Cols. Taylor and McCabe, the
work of seeing to the guests' enjoyment was
never allowed to drag.
Boston thoroughfares In their busiest cen
ter do not represent altogether n series of
puralelled streets. They are laid out in all
directions and in all sort of ways, in curves,
diagonally and otherwise, and the stranger

ed "how far is It to tho common!" they lu
ply "ten minutes walk," but never mention
number of ulocKs, direction, etc.
lu and about Boston much of rare Interest
Is teen. No place lu our country has as
many historical Bpots. In every section of
the city some old landmark shows the visitor
where noble deeds were accomplished by our
forefathers, In other sKts lie tho remains of
Homo renowned person of the past century,
and lu another the antique edlllce which has
remained from tho early days of Boston.
Many arothe very old hotels silll very popu
lar with the public and buildings that have
stood a hundred years or more.
When once out of tho net work of crooked,
curved and diugoualed streets of the city,
many very hcuilsomo thoroughfares anil
beautif ul ruddeuces are noticeable and of tlievj
the hub may well be proud. Their uks are
worthy of particular mention and tho reser
voir from which the city receives Its water
supply Is one of the most attractive and pret
tiest in tho' entire country. The drives aro
delightful, and the one enjoyed by the dele
gates, as a compliment of the governor, will
bo one of tho many pleasantries remembered
in time hereafter.
The harbor and water front Is said to lw
the finest In America and on its waters the
visitors enjoyed a very pleasant afternoon u
guestH of the mayor, skirting tho city and its
various suburbs as well in the resorts near by,
notably Naiitasket, at which point, by the
way, Miss Florence Brown of Mneo'ii, Is en
joying the summer while completing her
course lu voice culture. Several other K)lnts
ofinteiestto tho local resort seeker wero
passed but as the party were nent on seeing
the harbor and as much of tho water as pos
sible, no stops it ere made enroiitu.

The theaters did not quite come up to the

What's the matter, Mr. Bigelow?
The Journal's editorial comments on
pleasure wheels given below is lu keeping
with popular social movement of tho couutiy
In tho uietrojwlitan cities and in centers of
culture and relhiement, the U'tter classes of
society are adopting this great outdoor exer
cise. The.oiiriHif appropriately says:
"The Indies of Lincoln could not do better
than to tuke lessons frouitlwiso of the eastern
cities who have organized bicycle clubs and
appear constantly on the streets lu becoming
W
costumes on their two-wheeled carrluges.
Thooxerolsols very healthful and exhilarat
ing, and Is not so fatiguing as the practice or
tricycling. Let the young ladles take It up
and soon It would lion most popular amuse
ment. It bents horseback riding nil to pieces
after a little practice
Kastern ladies nowadays consider this a
social accomplishment. What is a prettier
sight or more graceful than a lady riding a
safety machine Formerly when tho heavier
machines wero in vogue, ami the tandems,
the bicycles, etc , wero generally used, and
principally by tho sterner sox, there were
reasons for the ladies to stand by and look on.
but now that especial attention has been di
verted to tho manufacture of light, easy run
ning wheels, csiicclally designed and made, for
the fairer ones, the time has come when every
lady should have u "steel horse" of her own
and use It as much as possible.
Speaking of this subject the other day to
Mr. Guthrie, on east O street, ho imparted
some information to Bye-tho-Bye, on this
subject Few xoplo are aware ol the par
ticular kind of exeni-e that Is derived by
using a wheel. People are often heard to
say "I Just as leave walk or run as to ride a
wheel," deeming it just as tiresome. This Is
a grave mistake, for while making one stroke
of the ihsIiiI, the wheel runs over a space of
from twelve to twenty feet. Then again In
riding there are certain muscles exercised
that iitroly ever get action. All this assists
ill developing the body and cieates health
and vigor. Few people appreciate the true
merits of tho wheel, but Its value is becoming
more apparent daily.

(here am many artists whoso merits have
