Krumbholz, of the Ruisseamont. The banquet in connection with the annual meeting was held in the Ruisseaumont cafe, in an inclosure made of balsam boughs interspersed with autumn leaves. From the ceiling were hung jack-o'-lanterns, giving the room the appearance of an Adirondack camp. The waiters were dressed in the costume of the Adirondack guide. It was a typical and beautiful North Woods scene. The repast was voted one of the most excellent in the history of the association, and worthy of the fame of Mr. Krumbholz and his splendid hotel. President Stevens presided at the banquet table and Mr. Krumbholz was toastmaster. Interesting remarks were made by Colonel Mills, D. W. Riddle, John Harding, Edwin H. Lee, F. K. Barbour, general agent of the N. Y. C. R. R., and others. The guests enjoyed an excursion during the day on Lake Placid in the launches of Mr. Krumbholz and Mr. Stevens.
