SARANAC LAKE.
George Fuller Golden, the famous monologist, who has been in Saranac Lake since his return from his Australian trip, has bought one of the largest cottages in the village and will make his permanent home here at least during the summer months. Mr. Golden left for a short stay in New York Saturday evening. It is hoped that he may be persuaded to give a monologue here later, in the season, as his appearance at the San Francisco benefit made him immensely popular with the visitors as well as the residents who were fortunate enough to hear him.
