Again has the record of passenger traffic
to this city been bnDken East Saturday
and Sunday the twotrailroans brought co.
GOO persons here, more than-awere ever be-
fore carried during the same length of
time. The crowds are simply enormous,
exceeding any ever before gathered here.
Despite somewhat unfavorable begin
ming, the season has turned out as pros
porous as the most sanguins could wish.
Numberless fads are to be observed here
every day. The very latest hobby is to
possess peba and carry 1t about with
you wherever you go. The peba is a
funny little animal about the size OF a rat
-He is second cousin to the armhdillo
and is a native of South America. He Is
gentle little fellow, who loves to be
-caressed, and never makes any effort 10
escape. Several of the queer pets have
been seen on the board walk lately, but
the craze has not yet become general ow-
ing to the high price of the animals. extra
fine specimens bringing as much as $10O
each.
