EaFEru-E

The outlook for tire sCmnsr Sd ssou at
Atlantic City was never 50 promising as il
is at present, and the prosperous City by
the Sea was never 50 good condition for
entertaining and amusing lis summer guests.
Entertainment in the sense OF affording
food and shelter is all that is required of the
Atlantic City people Nature furnishes the
rest and she lays sea and sand. sky and
wind under tribute 20 aid in accomplishing
her purpose. The great Seaside City OF
summer pleasure. reSouTcsful as Il j. in all
that Is attractive and beneficial on sea and
lard, could never attain to its high standard
OF popularity If Natures allv, the railroad,
cid not lend its efficient aid In rendering ac-
cess so easy that the average traveller counts
the trip as nothing
The facilities afforded bv the Pennsyl-
vania Railroads sCashore branches will be
greatly improved for the coming season.
They have always been maintained on
scale of Hberality unapproached by those
enjoyed by any other wateTiGgpiace, but
progressive spirit will. this summer. be man
ifested ia many and striking improvements.
The summer schedule will go into effect on
June Goth, and il will present a service of
trains superior in number. speed, ana equip
ment to that of any previous year. The
roadway of both the West jersey and Cam
den and Atlantic roads have been rebal-
lasted aud relaid in many portions in antic-
ipation OF an improved, accelerated, and in
creased service. so that the new schedule
will tind both of the Pennsylvania Atlantic
City lines in prize physical condition. a
large number of exnIess trains are promised,
FEa rfrk Of fran
fore made between the Delaware and the
ocean will be materially reduced.
An innovacation, which hard working
business men will appreciate and the res
idents OF suburban town and neighboring
cities will find most convenient, is q late
evening train from Philadelphia. IL is pro-
posed that this train shall leave Philadel-
phia about 6:3O +. N, after all the afternoon
connections are in and al business is over.
and arrive in Atlantic City for late supper.
II will undoubtedly prove a popular move
ment, and Will oftentimes save much hurry
and annoyance. Another new feature will
be late train up, leaving Atlantic CITY
at 1890 =. VI. for Philadelphia, enabling Wis
itors TO spend the evening with friends and
return the same night. Other fast trains
will run at convenient hours of the day in
both directions, so that every one may find
a leaving and arriving hour to his taste.
/ Two new trains Of considerable impor-
tance have been added To the schedule with
in the past week-one an early Uorning 2
/ train, designed to deliver the newspapers in
Atlantic City before breakfast, and the
other an early train up for the accOmmoda-
tion of those who would be in Philadelphia
3 before nine O'Clock.
/ The equipment sf the summer trains will
be greatly improved by the use Of new
coaches and By the substitution of new
Altoona built Parlor Cars. such as are run
between New York and Washington, for
tie old Woodruff ParlOT Cars that the
march of progress has left behind.
I With these superior facilities, and the adj
! vsntaCes offered by centrally located sta
ton easily accessible from all portions Of
the city, and In direct connection with
Broad Street Station, travel 10 Atlantic
+ City by the Pennsylvania Railroad holds
. out 20 its patrons 10 the strongest induce
ments of promptness, readiness, and COM
fort.
