The Governor general and party certainly spent a restful time while here. For the nonce, officialism was cast off and Earl and Lady grey and their daughters and enjoyed themselves just like other humans. There were no formalities of any kind, even the luncheons given by Sir Thomas Shaughnessy and Sir William Van Horne being unmarked by any display. We hope that they will be able to come this way again.

The governor-general before leaving the Algonquin hotel passed a high compliment upon the excellent management of Mr. Allerton. He said it was the best kept hotel he had ever been in. This is high praise, coming from such a source. Guests—His Excellency the governor-general, her Excellency Countess Grey, Lady Sybil, Grey, Lady Evelyn Grey, A. V. Sladen, Capt. D. C. Newton.

Governor-General of Canada Visits SA
In the dawning of the morning of Saturday last, Earl Grey, Governor General of Canada, and party steamed in to St. Andrews from St. John remained in their private car well until 9:20 o’clock when by appointment his Excellency received Mayor Snodgrass and the members of the town council. Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, who was present, also introduced a few citizens to the governor –general.
            His Excellency was in good humor and chatted pleasantly for a few minutes with his visitors. During the brief reception a magnificent big Newfoundland dog persisted in leaping about the Earl, showing affection that was honestly genuine. After breakfast the party entered the carriages of Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, Mr. C. R. Hosmer and Mr. F. W. Thompson, of Montreal, and were driven to the Algonquin hotel. The forenoon was quietly spent, a run out to the Algonquin golf links being the chief feature. The party partook of luncheon at Sir Thomas Shaughnessy’s residence, returning to the hotel afterwards. A large tent was erected on the bowling green for the informal reception at 4 o’clock, but the rain beginning to fall, the tend idea was abandoned, and the reception was held in the drawing room of the hotel. It was of a very informal character. Almost all the hotel guest attended. Among others were Sir William Van Horne, Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, G. W. Ganong, M. P. George, J. Clarke, M. P. P. W. C. H. Grimmer, M. P. P Mayor Teed of SS; Mayor Snodgrass, Aldermen Cockburn, Hanson, Cummings, Doon, Rigby, Horsnell, McDowell, and Greenlaw, Sheriff Stuart, Mrs. Stuart, Miss Stuart, Judge Cockburn, Mrs. Cockburn, F. H. Grimmer, Miss Grimmer, R. E. Armstrong, Miss Armstrong, Mrs. Very Whitman, Misses Maloney, Miss Gordon, R. Walter Clarke, Mrs. Clarke, Mrs N M. Clarke, T. R. Wren, Miss Freda Wren and W. F. Kennedy. A feature of the reception was the presentation of a handsome bouquet to her Excellency by Master Whitman, on behalf of the American visitors, and also one by little Miss Farmer.
            Saturday evening after the shower was over the governor-general and his aide strolled about town. On Sunday morning their Excellencies worshipped in All Saints’ church and listened to a good sermon by the Rev. R. R. J. Langford. As they passed out of the church, the choir sang the national anthem. After church they were driven to Minister’s Island, where they lunched with Sir William Van Horne. The party entered their car at 9 o’clock Sunday night and retired. On Monday morning, the car was attached to the regular express and proceeded to Point du Chene. After a trip through PEI Earl Grey will return to the capital.

Who’s Who
What Some of our Summer Residents Do at Home
Sir William Van Horne is first of all a good citizen; incidentally, it might be mentioned that the late Queen Victoria, of honoured memory, created him a Knight commander of the Order of St. Michael and St. George; also that he is chairman of the Canadian pacific Railway, Co., the head of the Cuban railway system, and is identified with a score of other enterprises of a more or less stupendous character.
            Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, K.C.V.O., is President of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company, which ought to be glory enough for one man. In looking after the multitudinous interests of this great corporation his time is so fully occupied that St. Andrews sees all too little of him.
            Charles F. Smith, who has recently become a permanent summer resident, is president of the James McCready Shoe Company, Ltd., of Montreal, a director of the Merchants’ Bank, of the Laurentide Paper Co., and of other mammoth corporations. He is a man of charming personality and a welcome addition to the cottage population of St. Andrews.
            Hon. Robert Mackay, of Montreal, is a Senator of Canada, and one of its wealthiest capitalists. He is associated with a large number of industrial and financial enterprises.
            D. Blakely Hoar, of Brookline, Mass., is a member of the legal firm of Brandeis, Dunbar and Nutter, of Boston.
            Mr. E. L. Pease, who is registered at the Algonquin, is the general manager of the Royal Bank of Canada.
            Mr. George B. Hopkins, banker, broker, yachtsman and good fellow generally, is a citizen of New York, and a warm advocate of St. Andrews as a summer and yachting resort.
            Mr. Thomas R. Wheelock is a retired merchant of Shanghai, China, who resides in Boston when he is not occupying his beautiful summer home in St. Andrews.
            Mr. C. R. Hosmer is President of the Ogilvie Flour and Mills Company, a director of the CPR and of several other large corporations. A man of great energy, and of a winning personality. Regarded as one of the wealthiest residents of Montreal.
            Mr. F. W. Thompson is vice-president and managing director of the Ogilvie Flour Mills Company.

The Summer Hotels. The Algonquin and the Inn open Once Again.
“Twenty years old today,” remarked Manager Allerton at the Algonquin hotel smilingly, on Monday last, “and the hotel is bigger and better and more prosperous than ever.” For the twentieth time the Hotel unlocked its doors to the public and unfurled its banner to the breeze, on Saturday. There were no guests to serve on what day, but the Hotel was ready for them, from basement o roof. Since then guest have been dropping in, and before long the hotel will be crowded. The manager states that never before have there been in the history of the house so many bookings as this season. He says he has had to refuse dozens of applications. The interior of the hotel is looking very beautiful and very artistic this season, with its new carpets on the stairways—by the way there are 880 yards of pure Wilton on the stairs—and its other new furnishings. The green room, the red-room, the splendid dining hall, the palm room, every part of the house in fact, are as clean as wax. There is nothing to offend the eye or any other sense, but everything is attractive and fascinating.
            The hotel has been wired for electric lights and these will be turned on about the firs of July. The power station is well advanced, the engine, boilers and dynamos are in position, the big smokestack was put in place on Monday and in another ten days fire will be started and the lights turned on. In the meantime the old form of acetylene gas will be used. The old laundry is also being used
            One external improvement to the Hotel is the fire escapes which have just been added. These were very necessary and should have been put on years ago.
            The grounds about the hotel have been brightened up with flower beds and are looking very attractive.
            the Algonquin staff will be composed of the following—A. Allerton, manager; Spencer Farmer, Chief Clerk; Wm. Woods, Steward; Mrs. H. E. Banks, housekeeper; Jas. S. Hobbs, chef. Irving N. Linnell, Head Waiter. James H. Morrison, Head Porter. Lester Struthers, Head Bellman. Thomas R. Hogan, tonsorial artist. Lillian McEleney, parlor Maid. Miss Horsnell, Stenographer. Miss Eva Barton, News Clerk. Fred. Donald, telegraph Operator. Ira Brown, Engineer and electrician. August Suck and ladies, orchestra. The Algonquin cottages will be tenanted by the following Montreal people—Henry Josephs, Percy P. Cowans, H. S. Hold and f. W. Thompson.

Beautiful Summer Home—Mr. F. W. Thompson Will Have Fine Estate. Detailed article.
What Mr. F. W. Thompson, President and General manger of the Ogilvie Milling Company, does he doe swell and thoroughly. this has marked his whole career, from the time that he began life as a humble bank clerk in one of the Eastern Township banks, supplementing his modest income by doing business printing on a small foot power press, until now that the had become the head of one of the biggest manufacturing concerns of Canada, a director in many of the leading industrial institutions, of the Dominion, and one of the most prominent financier of the country.
            This spirit of thoroughness-this desire to excel—he has manifested in the stately summer residence that he had erected near the Algonquin hotel and which he will occupy with his family during the coming month of June. Not content with having one of the most beautiful dwellings in the place, he proposes that he grounds shall be as beautiful as landscape artists and labor can make them. He has a battalion of men and teams engaged on his place now, digging drains, building terraces and grading up for the pergola which is to be erected at the end of his flower garden and which he expects to be one of the most striking features of his estate. This pergola will be semi-circular stone structure with pillars and open sides and roof. It will be 40 feet across. Flowers, vines and shrubs will be trained up its walls.
            The residence has a frontage of almost 100 feet and commands a beautiful outlook. On the lower floor, entering from the broad verandah on the south west corner, there is a wide hallway which communicates with the large living room. Adjoining the living room, with an eastern outlook, is the library. The dining hall is a splendid room 17 x 30 feet, with a beautiful western prospect. There are two large guest rooms, with baths, on this floor. In the rear are the kitchen, servants’ dining room, etc. On the second floor are six large sleeping rooms every one with a fine outlook. There are also two bath room on this floor. The floor above contains four servants’ chambers. The building will be heated by steam and lighted by either electric lights or acetylene gas.
            A large barn, with living rooms for coachmen and stable help, is now in process of erection.
            The plans for Mr. Thompson’s residence were prepare by Messrs Maxell, on Montreal, who have entrusted the carrying out of them to Mr. Wright McLaren, carpenter. The mason work is being done by Mr. Olssen, of Calais; the plumbing by Mr. Goodwill Douglas, and the painting by Mr. Albert Shaw.

Welcome Mr. Borden!
Mr. Borden, leader of the opposition, is expected in St. Andrews on Saturday.  Though disagreeing with his attitude on reciprocity, we will be glad to welcome him as the leader of a great party and as a distinguished Canadian. We do not apprehend any great change in sentiment as a result of Mr. Borden’s visit. A number of years ago, when Sir John MacDonald, the greatest and most magnetic leader that the conservative party ever had, visited SA, he was given a reception befitting a prince. Bands and banners, badges and buttons, streamers and arches wee much in evidence, but it made no difference in the result. Mr. Gillmor, who stood for closer trade relations with the outside world, ever and always, was returned by a large majority. When we compare the almost fulsome adulation Sir John received at that time with the uncomplimentary remarks that are being made concerning him by former worshippers, we begin to realize the hollowness of many political professions. We hope that Mr. Borden will meet a better fate in this respect than his distinguished predecessor, but we are afraid he will not. Party exigencies, as in the is instance, compel so many right-about-faces on public questions that it is just possible in a few months the very men who are applauding him for the stand he has taken on reciprocity will be upbraiding him as a stupid politician and trade bungler. Such is politics—party politics.

Mr. Borden’s Visit
Mr. R. L. Borden, leader of the Opposition, is expected to arrive in St. Andrews on Saturday morning’s train. He will be met at the station by a reception committee and band and escorted to Mr. F. W. Thompson’s summer residence, where an informal reception will be held from 12 to 1. Following the reception there will be a lunch at Mr. Thompson’s and at 3 o’clock he will deliver as address in Andraeleo Hall.

            Then a procession was formed, composed of the St. Andrews Band, thee auto from SS, the carriages of Sir William Van Horne, Sir Thomas Shaughnessy and a number of local teams, and the distinguished visitor was conveyed to the summer residence of F. W.
Thompson, president of the Ogilvie Milling Company, where a short reception was held. The route of March was decorated with flags, and bunting, and mottoes of various kinds. Quite a number of people attended the reception. The house and grounds were beautifully decorated and looked very attractive.
