this country is so much money represented

lago rents for 10,000 a year, while the cost
if building and maintaining one In uppro

Newport Is a resort only tor mo weaiiuy.
rhe town Is possessed by millionaires.
From Its situation it Is comparatively In
icccsalble, nnd therefore exclusive, and the
rich men who summer there are deter
mined to keep It so. There are no prices
jr conveniences for those who are In mod
irate circumstances. There are no street
jars. If you wish to ride you must tako a
sarrlnge. An electric rnllwuy, which was
bitterly opposed by the summer residents,
Is the only modo of popular convvyiiuce.
The superb turnouts und traps In wincn
the smart sot rides come from handsome
itables In keeping with the costly cottages
f which they aro tho adjuncts. Every
where are tho Indications of an almost
royal luxury.

Is that In the heart of the town, directly
opposlto the Casino, owned by James Gor-
ion Bennett, but now closed, it is a urnve
old mansion of graystoue, whose plUaro
ire overrun by honeysuckles and wjioso
rounds are kept in tho most perfect order.
A block or so down Bellevue avenue is
the villa owned by the Duchess de Dlno,
formerly , Mrs. Fred Stevens, who relin
quished all tho Joys of Newport nnd Its so
cial prestige for an uneventful Europenn
existence.
A raagulflcent mansion Is that occupied
by ex-Governor Georgo Peabody Wetmore.
It Is of grnystone, surrounded by acres of
lawn dotted with grand old trees of every
variety. It Is Inclosed by a stone wall, but
not of sufficient height to conceal ono of
tho most beautiful of Newport homes. Tho
mansion Is estimated to have cost fCOO.000.
and costs $30,000 a year to keep it up.
The house once the property of Vice
President Morton, but now belonging to
J. Townsond Bunion, is always pointed
out to visitors. Mr. Burden proposes to
make It over another season. Very near
are the Astor villas, und plumped between
them Is the white marble pnlaco of Wll-

As we makoa turn on Uellovue avenue,
Just beyond tho residence of Fred Vander

wealthy retired banker of New York! then
comes the magnificent estate of II M.

the homiw In Nowport this is thu most ar

Inchlquln, built by Banker O'Brien for
Ills daughter, Mrs. C. F. Mvyrmoru, It Is
of graystouu and stands on an eminence
overlooking Its neighbors.
On the Ocean drlvo Is tho villa of Ross

Ham K. Vanderbilt, now In process of con
struction, and which will cost over three
millions. Thero Is nothing beautiful
about it. It Is simply a huge pile of mar
ble and represents tho Vanderbilt dollars.
Seen from the ocean tho Vanderbilt pal
ace Is effective against the blue sky, but a
closer inspection falls to discover any art
or beauty about It. It Is Greek, but modi
fied to suit the requirements or moucrn
life, and In that adaptation loses the
strength of the original style. Then there
Is an extremely ugly white marble wall
about the place surmounted by marble
urns, and tho whole effect Is that of a
necropolis rather than a dwelling. Tho
grounds nro small, also, which makos a
bad Impression.
One of tho most Imposing villas at New
port Is that of Henry Clews, named The
Cliffs. Situated on n high bluff over
looking tho restlcs-j sea, Its many towers
and gables can be seen from far and near.
The main body of the villa Is of wood,
while the towers are of stone. It costs

What a Steamer Captain Saw.
An uuusual spectacle Is said to havo
been witnessed the other night by Captain
Otis Ingraham, of tho steamer Penobscot,
off tho Maine coast. The air was very
clear and the sky was cloudless. The cap
tain could see the lights on Thatcher's
Island, Isle of Shoals, Boone Island, York
harbor, Cape Elizabeth, Seguln island and
Monhegan something unprecedented In
his experience. As the distance from
Thatcher's Island to Monhegan Is eighty-
seven miles, the clearness of the atmos
phere can be Imagined. The only time
when all these lights were reported to have
been seen beforo was by Captain Itolx a
number of years ago.
THE HOME OF 8ECRETARV rROCTOH.
In Vermont the secretary of war Is liest
known as the "Guv'nor," and that Is what
he Is willed by all the men In tho imarrles.

It is a brown house with sldo piuzza, front

entrance piazza loading into tho big hall.
Tho secretary and his family go there early
In the spring and leave only at thu last call

Mrs. Proctor Is a careful housewife and
a thorough homebody, always to bo found
lu tier own kingdom. She has qultu enough
room to look after. From tho hall on the
right opens a largo music room with a
couple of pianos. Behind is a smaller
room not unlike a prlvnte office, and still
farther back is the sleeping room of the
secretary. On the left of the hall is tho re
ception room and connected with it Is the
dining room. On the t-econd floor tho plan
Is plain enough; plenty of sleeping rooms
aud what was formerly tho nursery and
school room of tho children, which Is used
