GREAT THINGS AT COMFY IsLASp--A DISCOURAGED

GREAT THINGS AT COMFY IsIAND--A DISCOURAGED
ELEPHANT AND SATISFIED INYKEEpERs.
The woe begone runt of an elephant that
stands daily in front of the big dime museum at West
Brighton. Coney Island looked more woebegonc and
more abiecty miserable than yesterday He could
hardly keep up courage enough to wag his left ear
once hour, and as for his tail,
IL was symbol OF washedout melancholy. The
elephant was awfully warm. hot wave had struck
him and all Coney Island, and had driven his tail to the
tip end Of his proboscs and then it seemed about
to melt of.
Everybody hut the elephant, however, seemed bound
to Ne happy. And everybody fully 10000 strong,
numbering those stretched all along from
piebeian West End to the stately and
aristocratic Oriental Hotel. There was hardly
a foot OF space at West Brighton. which was
not trnmped and retrampled by scurryng feet People
poured IN from the Sea Beach road and from the iron
steamboats, by the thousand The number Of babies was
sufficient TO make bachelor stand aghas and married
man to look proudly superior These bcnediets also
showed their watchfulness in observing the children
flying around the carousals. The dust was
thick that any with mouth half
open could eat his peck OF dirt in ten
minutes and have nearly enough left TO start potato
patch with. People ebowed and logged each other
While the prOpret0rs or places where anything potable
never ending smile. The Coney Island cheap pro-
priet9r who was not happy yesterday never VIII be.
prletor Dodge, OF the Hotel Brighton walked about with
the conscious air of man who has struck
IL rich" And then he talked enthusiastically.
Ono OF the busiest at Manhattan Beach Thomas
Ryan, who keeping his eye all mt time the Long
Island Railroad, the Pedestal Fund concert and on
tie Illuminated fountain TO be flowing at the bath
ing pavilion. lie had found that the Introduction OF an
elevated road In Brooklyn had stirred up Sunday travel
IN the City OF Churches to s h extent that the Long
Island road taken by drprise and actually could
not accommodate all the people who wanted
make exodus to Manhattan Beach. The corridors
vcrandas Of the hotel were 40 hick thronged that
ebowroom was considered special privilege to be used
for q second only.
Gilmores Band had an Immense audience, and the
Pedestal Fund considerably enlarged by the money
OF those who paid 10 enter the amphitheatre, in
order to the musicians well as to hear them:
MANY visitors wandered away toward the Oriental
Hotel. Bat unlil toward evening the sun poured down
so savagely upon the wooden promenades that those
who venturcd upon them got shelte: in hurry,
Toward evening delicious GOODNESS fell upon the beach
and great majority OF people fingered for the latest
trains In order 10 enjoy tho refreshing air..
The only noteworthy police Incident OF tho day up to
D. IN. was the arrest of lightning photographer who
attempted &c make customer see lightning straight
from the shoulder. Both were Dailed.

ScOurged Into Paradise.

True. my son, do not like to drive a
man into heaven by terror of he fire. 1t
is not a manly or dignified way to come
into heaven on run and jump, with
a face distorted by fright, like man
banged into his house just ahead of a
thunder storm. But still, isn't it better
to scare him into heaven on the up, like
a scared dog, rather thar leave him out
altogether? If man can't be got to
turn his face heavenward any other way,
l say shake him over the pit till he
smells birthstone. am not so good man
my boy, that am liable to be translated.
My goodness is not So excessively great
that it hurts me to carry it round. But
l want to be better every day. L want
to go to heaven some day. l hope will.
And if some good, big souled, strong
lunged, loud+singing old Baptist revival
list, like Elder Swan-God bless him-Or
Knapp or Raymond, should get after me
and chase me into heaven with fire
brand, after 1 got in 1 would turn around
and thank him and bless him for a thous-
and years. All my son. after we get to
heaven thousands and millions Of us
will show each other our backs to show
how we were scourged into paradise.
