Tho Fare IL Five Cents, and Many
People Wait II.

One of the finest rides around Seattle is
that afforded by the West street electric
line to Ballard. It carries one on the
crest Of the hill along the water front, and
races over mile or so of trestle at passen-
ger train speed. 1t furnishes a varied
scenery. from the sights ola busy, crowded
city, through beautiful suburbs and
meadows, past railroad shops, overland,
and up the main street of the growing
town of Ballard all for q nickel. This
electric line carries hundreds of people
daily who take the trip as pleasure ex-
cursion, and before they return are i'm
pressed with the wonderful progress which
Ballard has made in the last twelve
months. The sight of hundreds of new
houses going up all over the valley means
that building is going on and the town is
growing.
