il carried out, provide commodious and sub

each OF the railroad companies Qake-Shore T.
Michigan Southern and Chicago, Rock

aud the Town of Lake $500, to winch
the Park Commissioners will add S1,500 more.
This sum will build depot which will be an or
nament to the locality, and accommodate the
visitors to the parks who come from the city
over these roads.
