snccial OOTreBpOndence OF the dhheFle'
CuGcAGo, Ill, June 2.-We claim a |
Coney Island, or will after this coming |
summer. A number of intelligent, able
business men have leased Chelyenham
Beach, a delightful spot on Lake Mlchi-
van. ten miles from the heart OF ms
| burg. and we are 30 have Worlo's
pastime Exposition, consisting OF eN-
hints of everything relating 20 pas
! time and pleasure. All populer sports
! Imaginable are fully and ably provided
| for. and we have the fastest bicycle track
In the world here These enterprlslng
gentlemen will keep us busy for years to
come enjoying what their wit has brought
ABOUT Some very amusing things occur
In their Oflce. The manager told me
some, which will retail TO you by way OF
diversion. One min comes TO hlm ue-
string the bathing privilege and suggests
charging extra for salt with sWlni
knowing the absence OF that ingredient
Another with quite as mammoth q brain
proposed the heating of the water by a
system of steam pipes, that bathing
might be carried late into the season.
Still ono more deluded creature wanted
/ TO give clam-chowders and clam-bakes on
I the beach. Needless to remark he is
purely Western man.
a How little these city people know OF
d the taste of really fresh tlsh' see
n countless numbers IN restaurants and
n hotels actually devouring with relisi
fish that come To them from HEAVIER
knows where. But perhaps they are bet
Al ter off, and in their Ignorance lies thei
delight
# our city has been stirred from tn
In depths OF late over the strikes, ana, IN
" deed, we had one horrible night for GU
y police-while half the city wrapped j
re slumbers, our brave men at their posts
"a little knew they of the terror an
slaughter brought about by hali-craHed
nv half-drunken slower classes" But 18th
nv finest" were equal to the emergency, .
he when have they not been, and the oil
nj turbauces were quieted In q snrprisingl
n, short time.
lss Our militia have been under arms, to'
nd but were not required "to move again
the enemy,n and all is presumably Sc
tied aud quiet.
As. our weather Is variable as ever, al
the inhabitants go about with line
busters aud ear muffs, and In certa
locality dodge the stones from the coui
house, which looks nearer ready to tn
bic than Is admitted by the average u
Cagoan.
rye Our balmy spring days nave caus
yer mauy ladies TO appear on the streets
cen the new styles. Very pretty indeed q
Ma are. Everything is bright, light aud
