THE RUSH OUT OF TOWN.
TIE COMFY ISLAND BEACHES.

A few years ago the whole stretch of shore
off and opposite Sandy Hook called Coney Island;
now It is subdivded into Coney Island. Brighton Beach
and Manhattan Beach. The subdivisions are most ap-
propriate No one who knew Coney Island a few years
ago would recognize eastern end under the sub
divisions of Manhattan Beach and Brighton Beach.
Less than fifteen years ago the whole beach recog.
nzed by these names offered BY the authorities Of
Grayesend to man named Perkins for $780, half cash,
and he refused TO buy 1t. He has not since offered
900 it, but probably that sum multiplied by ten
would not buy 1t at this moment Fifteen years ago the

toward which no woman ever turned her face, and
toward which went only for fishing ana

hors coach occasionally seen ycntufing cautiously
along the uncertain beach, hundred railway cars run
aro-v bour and for every lone fisherman thousand
,aasuraseekers promenade the smooth beach and
ounee IN the magnificent hotels kiosks and bathpay-
ops which almost obsruct the wash OF the ocean. The
,ransformation is something more than marvellous
FIFTY thousand persons visited Coney Island, Brighton
and Manhattan Beach yesterday. 0ne-half OF them
went direct Manhattan Beach. Brighton Beach is too
new and unknown and Coney Island proper Is TOO bar
rem OF new features to attract more people. Brighton
Beach is very handsome though inferior to Manhattan
Beach, and must be content to take for time al ieas'
the overflow OF the greater hotel; Cables ana sanu
