A PLEASANT EXCURSION.
A Sunday Trip from the City to the Con-

A Sunday Trip from the City to the Con-
necticut Coast.
One of the most delightful outings to
be had in this vicinity is afforded by
Kastendiek's Sunday excursions to
Bridgeport on the elegant steamer
Cygnus, OF the Iron Steamboat Company's
line. A charming sail up the Sound, with
its invigorating air and fine scenery,
brings the excursionists to Bridgeport at
midday, where q stop of an hour or so in
this interesting Yankee town, with its
shady streets and genial air of content
ment, forms q pleasant feature of the
days enjoyment. The cooling breezes Of
the Sound are ~eXhilarating and make the
sail a most desirable one for family par
ties. Moreover, K~astendiek's excursions
are admirably conducted and orderly,
and the kindly services of an attentive
stewardess are duly appreciated by ladies
and children.
Excellent music is furnished through
out the trip by Dittmar's full orchestra.
A march, tour Commodore" dedicated
to the genial and popular Commodore
Kastendiek, is particularly worthy of
mention. A copy of this march will he
presented each lady or the excursion next
Sunday as q souvenir, it being the last
trip of the season to Bridgeport. Begin

tendiek will run the .palatial steamer ST.

HIGH SPEED ON THE RAILS.
A Train on the Bound Brook Route
Makes Ninety Miles an Hour.

A Train on the Bound Brook Route
Makes Ninety Miles an Hour.
A single mile in thirty-nine seconds,
and eight miles covered at this
prodigious speed, was the record made
the other day on the Bound Brook
Railroad by engine No. 206, of the
Wotten pattern, that drew the fast
train which leaves Philadelphia at
7:3O a. IN. There were five "a r in
the train, and John Hogan, a veteran
massive Strong locomotive, which
has recently been tried on the Read
ing Railroad, took the fast express to
New York for q number of days, and
when No. 206 made it's remarkable run
it was trying to surpass the record OF
its rival. The speed recorded is equiv
alent to a rate OF over ninety miles an
hour The record is probably the
fastest aver made in this part OF the
country.
Some years ago Long Tom,n IA New
Jersey Central locomotive, drew a
train carrying Chester a.. Arthur,
then President, and a party OF friends
at the rate of a mile in thirty-seven
seconds, as it was claimed, but the
achievement was regarded with some
doubt. Another performance has
been recalled by the record OF No.
206. The Shaw engine, which has
lately been running on the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, made a trial
of speed some years ago before
the Ohio Railroad Commissioners.
A mile was made in forty
seven seconds, and for six miles a
rate of seventy-two miles an hour was
attained without the maximum OF
performance being reached. 1t Is
likely that this Shaw locomotive will
make an attempt to secure the record
either on the Baltimore and Ohio or
the Atlantic City Railroad.
1t has been decided by the Pennsyl-
yania Railroad to send u OF its best
engines, perhaps "Long-Legged No.

A Wife's Deception.

There is at least one man in this
country who believes in that legend
airy statute of the early days of New
Jersey which makes it a criminal
offence for any young woman to en-
snare a swain by means of high heels
or other artificial aids to beauty. He
is a farmer named Pheylan, and he
lives out in Michigan. Loves young
dream is over for him, for he has dis
covered that his wife's hair is false,
and he cannot believe longer that her
heart is true. Both husband and wife
now have suits for divorce pending.
That of the wife is based ON the more
prosaic ground of desertion.
The case seems a peculiarly aggra-
waited one, so far as the husband is
concerned. 1t was his wife's beautiful
head of golden hair which first won
his heart. Such locks are rarely seen,
except in pictures showing the won
derful effects of hair restorers.
Mr.. Pheylan was one of those hus-
bands who are fond of patting their
wives ON the head. Many wives do
not like this style of caress because it
is apt to disarrange their hair, but
they put up with it on account of the
masculine ignorance of their hus-
bands. Mrs. Pheylan tried to repress
her feelings, but could not entirely
repress a symptom of nervousness.
MI. Pheylan' suspicious were aroused,
and he committed the fault of hus-
bands who are suspicious. He
watched.
The result was shocking. He saw
his wife making her toilet. Those
beautiful locks we're hanging from a
nail, while, like the Lorelei, she
combed them, and, worse, she herself
was bald as a billiard ball. That sight
killed his love and he fled from the
house.
While, no doubt, it was wrong in
the wife to deceive him, still it should
be considered that she would never
have won him for a husband had he
known the truth, and when she
bought the wig she may have re
garded it as a last desperate device to
get married.
