the lake, besides the regular steamers. There
are plenty OF tents at the disposal of camp
ing parties, and excellent meals are pro-
vided at the park dining halls for those who
are not provided with cooking facilities.
\ The great attraction of the place is its
fishing, and, in the proper season, game of
certain kinds is abundant. General Passen-
ger Agent Sargent, of the Pittsburg. She
mango and Lake Erie Railway, has caught
% black bass in one dav, some of which
reached the handsome weight of six pounds.
In the fall 100 ducks have been bagged by
sportsmen in single day, while the sur
rounding country is reported to abound in
woodcocks: quail, snipe and grouse
The railroad company, believing that
Conneaut Lakes high altitude. pie asant
vicinage, pure water, attractions for fisher
men and sportsmen and ease of access from
Pittsburg should make it popular resort
for this city, are preparing to make very
extensive Improvements In the near
future a large hotel, the plans of which
have been prepared, will afford ample ac-
commodations for guests All of the modern
conveniences and facilities will be pro-
vided
A feature of this season will be a series
of polo contests. The Little Missouri live
stock farm is located on the shore of the

which bursts forth in the vicinity of the

thorities show all of these springs to possess
different and valuable medicinal properties.

plains the assorted character of the waters.

The accommodations offered to soiourners
at Bedford are of a high grade, though some
latitude in the matter of expense NAV be
secured. The Bedford Springs Hotel, To-
Gated something more than a mile from
town, will accommodate about 700 guests.
The building proper has half-mile of wide
veranda and is supplied with all of the
modern conveniences. The weekly rates
range from $50 to S25, and from SO to $50 a
month. June Is is the regular opening
date
The Arandale, little nearer the town, is
another handsome and well-appointed hos
telry, which can provide for several hundred
visitors. 1t will open for the season June 1.
The rates range from S12 80 to S17 80 a
week, with the average midway between
those figures. Those who prefer to stay in
the town can secure pleasant quarters at the
Hotel Waverley, a new house with a ca
paclty Of 125 guests, and having easy access
to the Springs, besides full use of the water
of all kinds, fresh supply being constantly
received. The Waverley weekly rates
range from $40 to s14. All of these hostel
ries give especial attention to their cuisine,
and between them they afford considerable
choice in the matter of location and cost.

road systems, pretty town has sprung into
existence and the handsome Hotel Oliver
affords agreeable entertainment for numer-
Gus guests Ellwood introduces itself to
the visitor most pleasantly. The neat little
station; back of it, an eighth of mile of
well-kept lawn, gradually rising to the
broad knoll where stands the hotel, shad-
owed by the grand old oaks of the parks be-
hind it.
Of course, Hotel Oliver has the usual
amusements of a summer resort, but these
are forgotten when once Glen Park has been
seen, with its 400 acres of magnificent gorge.
The surrounding country abounds in pleas
ant drives. Among the low hills there is a
great variety of quiet, pastoral scenery.
The clay soil makes hard, smooth road,
which is especially adapted to bicy cling.
At Slippery Rock, a mile or so away. there
is fishing for the sportsmen and boating for
the oarsmen. One claim made for the place
is that it is so near Pittsburg that business
man can keep his family at the Hotel
Oliver and run out every evening Mr..
Mcpherson, OF Pittsburg, is now putting
an electric line over the Baltimore and
Ohio tracks so that more frequent trips can
be made to Ellwood Junction.
A few miles away is picturesque Rock
Point, the favorite picnic grounds of the
Pennsylvania lines west OF Pittsburg, where

physically out of sorts, while the careful
matron is eager for information as to places
lost adapted for the family, and especially
the children.
''What will 1t cost2" is the query of one
and all.
To answer these inquiries The DISPATCH
INSTITUTED a thorough investigation of the
resorts which are visited bv Pittsburgers or
which are easy of access to its thousands of
readers in Pennsylvania, Ohio and neigh
boring States The angler is informed where
fishing forms one of the chief attractions.
while those who are fond of social pleas
Ures can learn of the resorts most de-
voted to such enioyments. Many prefer
the temperature of the mountains, while
others wish to be alongside of water. Some
desire 4 summer home full of life and actiy-
itv, while Others are seeking perfect quiet.
There are still others, too, who wish to
combine several desired qualities in one
resort. The question of expense enters
largely into the calculations of many,
especially those who contemplate lengthy
stay.
For the benefit of these eager seekers for
Light and the information of the general
public The DISPATCH has in the past few
weeks visited the various resorts and care
fully prepared compendium of their re-
snective claims upon attention, which is
herewith presented:

combine to make it natural resort of the
Central, Western and Southwestern States.
The Put-in-Bay Hotel Company, realizing
that Put-in-Bay has all the advantages and
attractions to make it great pleasure re-
sort, and believing that to commence right
was the surest way to success, determined
to build hotel so large, magnificent and
elegant in all its proportions and fittings,
that it would at once attract the attention
and command the patronage OF the better
class of people of all the vast territory
tributary thereto.
Hotel Victory is 600 feet long by 400 feet
deep, covering nearly six acres of ground.
Its main portion surrounds q court 800 feet
square. The main dining room is capable
of seating 1000 persons. The hotel con-
tains 600 guest chambers, grand parlor,.
with numerous private parIors and re,
ception rooms, and large amusement hall.
with stage and necessary adjuncts for the
entertainment and amusement of guests: n
private library, reading room and billiard
room for ladies. 1t will be fitted and fur-
nished throughout with every modern i'm
provement for the comfort and convenience

100 acres of highly ornamented grounds,
sloping from the river to a height OF l,ZOO
feet The grounds themselves contain miles
OF walks and drives of rare attractlyeness
and picturesque views. Hundreds OF differ
ent species OF rare and beautiful trees, many
of which are matured to be noble specimens,
abound in every part. Rustic bridges over
wild ravines and winding paths through
avenues of overshadow1ng trees lead to un-
seen beauties, while the surrounding scenery
is not surpassed in all the Allegheny
region.
While the temperature is always cool at
night, the difference is not so great pc
tween the maximum at noon and the mini
mum at midnight as to render the change
uncomfortable. The region abounds IN
more and finer springs than at any point IN
the mountains, Laurel alone containing
over 200 within the space OF few acres;
The buildings consist of main building and
three cottages. They are heated by steam
and lighted with gas, are we'll supplied with
warm and cold water, bathrooms and every
thing necessary to comfort and healthful-
ness. spring high up on the mountain
side supplies delicious water. The sanitary
arrangements are all that can be desired

Der of horses have been trained for the
eastern polo grounds. During the sum-
mer it is expected that there will be mum.
ber OF interesting and exciting events
Mammoth schemes for the head of the
lake are under way. A company with
ample capital has purchased large tract,
with good landing, and is now erecting an
auditorium seating 5000 to 10000 people,
with large exhibition buildings for the
manufacturers to display their wares. The
place will be otherwise embellished, with
the intention of making q grange, fair and
picnic grounds on the style of Williams
Grove and Mt. Gretna. The railroad will
construct track to the new grounds, which
are to be opened in style in August.
The United Presbyterian General
Assembly will hold its session there about
that time. The people who are working in
the -matter are confident that Conneaut
Lake will soon secure prominent place in

fair sex, from the more elderly matrons to
the amusement-loving bellies of the season.
In the evenings superior orchestra floods
the parlors and ballroom with strains which
keep time with the flying feet. The extern
tive piazzas offer tempting hooks where
twilight reigns In the morning a great
swimming pool, with competent instructors,
tempts those who enjoy the water. During
the day there are cycling and riding par
ties, and the ample grounds afford facilities
for all outdoor amusements.
For those fond of fishing and boating there
is charming lake made by the damming
of the Little Yough river, where trout and
black bass await the wiles of the angler.
There are interesting rambles without end.
Nor are the requirements of the children
neglected. The delightful old forest is right
at the doors of the hotel, and its hooks are
just such as the little ones revel in. In the
evenings or during rainy weather the wide
porches afford an ample play ground. The
orchestra is often at their disposal, and the

Railroad and located on its main line, great
attention has been given to securing the
utmost ease of access from all the big cities
of the East and West, and insuring comfort
for travellers. Deer Park and its sister
resorts of Oakland and Mountain Lake Park
are located on the summit of the mountain
range, over 1000 feet above the ocean level,
only few hours ride away. This altitude
insures a cool and refreshing temperature
during the heighth of the heated term.
Deer Park is beautifully endowed by
nature. but art has been called upon to
make it sumptuous summer home. Par
ticular heed is paid to the wishes of the

house in every sense of the word, making
an enjoyable summer home for large num-
ber of Allegheny county people. Ample
bathing facilities, bowling alleys, baseball
grounds and tennis courts furnish abundant
sources of amusement for the guests There
is good fishing, particularly for trout, in the
many mountain streams. and the abundance
of game in forest and field makes it an In
teresting region for sportsmen. The eleva-
tion is such as to insure cool and bracing
atmosphere. There are many pleasant
drives in the surrounding country, and at
Franks Hotel special attention is paid to
the equine accommodations.
A large addition to the hotel, containing
an ample ballroom, is now about completed.
The hotel rates range from SO to SIT 30
week, with special rates for families and

patronized by Pittsburgers. The hotel is
surrounded by an extensive lawn, with a
large grove of native maple and beech to
the south and west, and beyond an extended
view Of mountain scenery The neighbor-
ing country is rolling and of dry, sandy
formation, thus insuring pure, dry atmos-
phere, totally free from malarial influences.
A number of springs of pure water are on
the premises, from which the house is sup
piled.
There are many beautiful drives in
the vicinity, and superior trout brooks can
be found by the enthusiastic angler. There
are tennis courts, croquet and ball grounds
on the lawn, and bowling alleys and other
amusement facilities connected with the
house. The hotel structure is new and SUBJ

The historic old town is easy of access
from Pittsburg. On the north it is con-
nected by the picturesque Huntingdon and
Broadtop Ra;.:oad with the Pennsylvania
main line at huntington, while on the
south the Bedford division of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad makes close connections
with the principal eastern and western
trains of the Baltimore and Ohio, at either
Hyndman or Cumberland Several promi-
nent Allegheny county families have for
years past been in the habit of driving from
Pittsburg to the Springs, and many others
have their favorite horses and eYuipages
shipped to the spot by rail.
Within easy reach of Bedford are many
points of interest Island PARK is three
miles west of town. In it is an isle-dotted

but odorous pine-clad hills. A plentiful

to October 1. A telegraph Office is located
in the building, and the mail and other IA
cilities OF communication are very COM

A few miles from Ligonier and on the
way there is the favorite picnic ground of
Idlewild, with its artificial lake, tennis
courts, ball grounds and other facilities for
insuring pleasant day. An observatory is
now being erected on the top of Old

Youngstown, New Castle and Pittsburg.
Several residents of this city have cottages

with full equipment of shells, working

rapidly developing into q popular place of
resort for those both on health and pleasure
bent. About five years ago there was dis
covered in this village mineral spring of
such health-giving properties that its fame
at once went abroad, so that now the name
OF Cambridge is household word in many
homes in this and other States The waters
OF this spring, named for its discoverer the
Gray Mineral Spring." are noted for their
quick curative effects
Shortly after the discovery of the virtues
of this mineral water mammoth hotel was
erected for the accommodation of guests.
