There is a noticeable Improvement
this year in the running of trains be-
tween st. Paul and the lake over that
OF previous seasons, and one no longer
hears the constant grumbling and COM
plant about delayed trains, which used
to form the chief topic of conversation
and when the double track is completed,
we may look for an almost perfect ser
vice. 1t is true that an occasional lake
bound train gets stalled on the heavy
grade near Hamm'S brewery and the
services of an extra engine are re.
quired, but such delays are not fire.
quent. When the number of trains of
every description that pass and repasS
over this short stretch of "corkscrew''
road, every twenty-four hours, are taken
into consideration, it is almost marvel.
Gus that there are not more accidents.
The 5 o'clock train to the lake We'd
neSday evening was delayed at the
Union depot, but the engineer made I'D
the lost time between that point and
White Bear. The way the cars bumped
and ricochetted around tine curves
especially when the train passed over a
stretch of new track-was calculated to
make the passengers hair stand up
right. Passengers would feel a great
deal safer If the speed were moderated
somewhat and no attempt made to re-
gain lost time.
A gentleman living at Mahtomedi has
added steam launch to the lake craft,
which will run for the benefit of the
public. This makes total of five new
launcheS-three steam and two naptha
placed Oh the lake this season. Al
though this adds much to the gaiety of
life on the water, the constant passage
of the boats to and fro disturbs the fish
ermen in their accustomed haunts, and
they are looked upon with disfavor by
them.
The few parties given at Leip's have
not been a crush, but this is accounted
for by the fact that it has rained almost
every evening for which hop had been
set. Now that the schools are out and
new parties of campers take up their
abode on the shores of the lake, it will
make life gayer in social way. Mean
while the guests at Leip's amuse them
selves with lawn tennis. boating and
fishing, and in listening to the music of
the gentleman quartette who are stop
ping at the hotel. The latest acquisition
to the musical circle here is Miss Daisy
Allen--a young miss of eleven-re-
Gently arrived from New York city. Her
singing is perfectly wonderful for a
child, and her voice is of singular purity,
sweetness and compass.
AT the Williams house progressive
euahre has again broken out and prom
ises to have quite run this summer.
Silence reigns supreme around the
DellwOOd club house, and its curtained
windows and closed doors present a
gloomy aspect, in marked contrast to
the life and gayety of the past two sea-
sons. Here it was that Mrs. Jessie
Bartlett Davis, Miss Mae Murphy, c. A.
Severance and many other singers of
national and local celebrity were wont
to grace the club house with their pres
ence. Oft on a mOonlit evening the
passing b0atman has rested on his oars
as he listened to the full, rich contralto
of Mrs. Jessie Bartlett Davis as she
sang, with pathos, the old favorite of
the MatoSka boys, Sweet Genevieve"
At Mahtomedi many improvements
going forward for the reception of hosts
of visitors during the coming assembly.
