Ing 10 the company, the driver informed
ms. have about recovered from the recent
observation-disclosures the cars have resumed
their regular schedule, and everything Is
going smoothly. Travel Is good on the
| line for the season OF the year, though OF
course the boom caused by the summer
exodus to the suburbs of everybody who
could get away, Is over until next year.
At present, the larger portion OF the
travel Is composed Of children who
come from the. outlying districts TO
the various educational institutions in the
CITY. The morning trips, for an hour or
so. and those in the evening about the
hour that "schoors out" are crowded
with rosy-cheeked, good.humored boys
and girls, whose healthy appearance is
suggestive OF the advantages OF country
. life.
Mr. Kleeh, the genial and capable su-
perintendent, says the road is In good con-
dition, the business in every way satisiae'
tory, and the prospects for the future more
than pleasing.

OF lively people, and hear the merry sound
OF happy sports. The "Jscktown snatch

En- route back to town our reporter
f.. Jumped OF at Mt. Belleview Hotel, and

has in the past season gotten 10 be almost

situated as to permit business men TO come

j. Thing for the boarders, and very good
thing for the Wheeling and Elm Grove

We mentioned to ar. Wilson rumor St
q had heard, 10 the effect that he would rur
the hotel during tie winter. This, he in

n fact, made any plans for the future, anc
= could not say what he might conclude

plans.

greater demand. Mr.. Lists trade reaches
to nearly all parts Of the State and neigh

:, Some 5000 or 5000 hogs, on an average,
I are killed in season, and the work, when

SchenCk & Zoeckler also have about the
