OUT FOR A HOLIDAY.
The drive up Royal Mountains is a very
enjoyable one, and as we took it on st.
Peter and st. Paul's day we had an oppor-
tunity of seeing many of the people enjoying
the holiday in families in picnic fashion. At
the summit we found a pavilion with various
Indian and other curiosities for sale, but the
far-reaUh1ng view in which the Adirondacks
and Beloiel Mountain the noble st. Lawrence,
with the Lachine Rapids and the great city
at our feet, were all parts of q beautiful pam
Drama, absorbed all our thoughts.
On our return our driver took US
through the Catholic Cemetery, stopping at
resenting the stations of the cross. The
figures in colored bisque apparently, are
under glass and very effective. Not knowing
what We were approaching, it was with
feelings of reverential awe that we
came in sight of this representation
siGe stood three crosses, 90 feet in height,
the figures on them and of the two Marys
standing at the base of life size. A group
of young people kneeling at prayer added to
the 1mpressiyeness of the scene.
We have no time left to tell of the Gray
pleasant impressions of the model Windsor
Hotel. We left it with regret and hopes
that We might some day again sojourn
within its hospitable walls. J. L. o.

SEEN FROM THE RIVER BOATS.
Much taste is displayed in the arrange
ment of the camps now to be seen along the
Monongahela. Often a neat picket fence fs
built along the bank in front of the camp
and nicely whitewashed. Over the gateway
is an inscription with the name of the camp.
flight of steps from the gate to the waters
edge is made by digging steps into the bank,
and on either side erecting a railing. Upon
the beach and banks are made figures Of
animals, fishes, anchors, stars, ETC., with
shells or whitewashed stones, which look
very pretty to the passengers on the r1yer

q little German, who had seen picture in
one OF the Pittsburg papers of a well-known
statesman fishing, had produced the picture
in effigy. A pair of blue overalls, q pink
shirt yellow seersucker coat, rubber boots,
paper collar and flaming necktie and an
old straw hat which had seen its best days
ana perhaps worse completed the figure
which was labeled with a name that had
been the battle cry of great political party.

shore and hold suspended in the air rod
and line to which was attached q good-sized
perch.
The camp always displays its patriotic
spirit by hoisting the national colors in a
conspicuous place. The great event of the
day is the arrival OF the boat, which is re-
celyed with Il salute from the cannon which
is an appendage of every camp. The river
mail IS the principal means of communica-
tlon with home, and there are usually letters
for some of the campers. Then there are
fresh supplies and perhaps some new luxury

Upon the whole, for real pleasure and
recreation, inexpensiveness and access
lDlllty, there is no other field that offers
wider latitude for enjoyment and ease than
the fishing camps along the Monongahela
river, and this assertion Is supported by the
TACT that the camps are becoming more
numerous each season.

usually large influx Of guests this week and
things are beginning to grow decidedly
livelier. There is a great deal of driving
being done, and several tallyho parties have
been given. One given by little Lawrence

all tho tables are in use. Among the best
players are Judge and Russell Houston, Of
Louisville, Ky; Prof. ana Mrs. A. II. Gal

to.the children. The grounds are turf, which

The number OF guests at the varioussum-
mer resorts has been steadily increasing up
TO she present time, but this week may be
said 90 be the greatest OF the season. 1t is
likely that the gay pleasure seekers will look
homeward soon and n gradual falling Off
may be expected, though frost will doubt
less find many still enjoying their outing.
In spite OF the rainy and cool weather this
season the exodus to the pleasure resorts
has bean as great as ever and there can be
no doubt that the annual outing has come

the resorts do not seem as crowded this year
as of old, it IS because more accommodations
have been provided; and those who have in
vested in hotels at the resorts have no
reason to contemplate tearing them down.
The American people will have their outing.

IN THE FISHING CAMP.
Pretty Sights Along the MonongaheIa River
This Time of Year.

CORRESPONDENCE OF THE DIsPATcH.l
WEST ELIZABETH, Pa, Aug. S.-Of the army
of pleasure seekers who escape the dust and
heat of the city at this season of the year, a
goodly portion affect the fishing camp and
the Monongahela river seems the most de-
sirable retreat. 1t is really surprising how
popular the fishing camp has become along
this river within the past decade. A trip by
boat from Pittsburg to Morgantown dis
closes at intervals of every mile or so camps
or sites of fabandonedcamps. These campers
come from all classes and professions. In
some instances the camp is a family camp,
where the whole family goes out for a week
or month of pleasure. Sometimes the camp
is made up OF the members OF some lodge
or OF fellow workmen in some mill or fact
ory. Occasionally q minister will take
part of his flock for an outing.
Because it is fishing camp It does not
follow that the chief and sole object Is to
catch fish, far from it. There, they may en-
Joy the fresh country air, and healthful river
breezes; bathing and boat excursions; fish
ing. If any wish, and all the other pleasures
attendant to camp life. The camp has a
captain or commissariat. who has general
oversight of affairs. He keeps the funds and
purchases all provisions An assessment is
made upon the members of the camp when
the funds become low and each contributes
his share to replenish the treasury. The
average cost per member in camps where
the best OF fare is served is not over four
dollars per week; sometimes much less.
Sometimes outsiders are taken as boarders
Mt the rate OF 81 per week and friends who
make the camp flying visits are entertained
at the expense of the camp.
WELL UP THE RIVER.
The banks of the fifth and sixth pools
are the most in favor for good loca-
tions. A high level plot of ground out of
reach of any sudden rise of-the riverin some
beautiful little grove or clump of willows
makes a desirable site. The camp is not
usually located in the immediate vicinity of
any dwelling, but generally within mile or
two of some river town, where a supply Of
provisions may be easily had. Some camps,
however make arrangements before leaving
nome to have fresh provisions sent upon the
boat each day.
Having arrived at the camping place, a
cooking shed Is built, in which n stove is set
up Rude shelves are arranged about the
sides of the shed to accommodate cooking
utensils. A rude cupboard, well-filled with
seryiceable dishes, completes the kitchen
