TWO WEEKS IN FLORIDA.

To see Florida is a pleasure; to visit
il is a privilege; but TO spend a fort
night within its borders is an epoch.
There is a great satisfaction in wit
Messing the ripening of tropical fruits
in their own native land, and pecu-
liar JOY in wrestling with old oceans
waves when lakes and rivers at home
are all icebound. One appreciates the
wonders of modern invention and rail-
road development upon leaving the
neighborhood of good skating one day
and finding himself in the vicinity of
good bathing the next. Yet this can be
done, and the man who prefers hunt
ing or fishing will take his accoutre-
ments along with him, for Florida ex-
tends a cordial invitation to all sports
men.
Whoever would exchange for two
weeks the uncertain climate of the
North for the delightful and Spring
like sunshine of Florida should take

ARRIVAL OF ELECTRIC CARS.
SIX FINE WINTER TROLLEYS RUN
THROUGH TOWN.
THEY ARE A ROYAL BLUE WITH
CARMINE AND GOLD DECORA-
TIONs, RICH UPHOLSTERY AND
ELECTRIC HEATERS.


ELECTRIC HEATERS.
Early last evening. through a snow
storm, a crowd of New Castle people,
with gladdened hearts, assembled at
the foot of Delaware street, where a
railroad train of platform cars, upon
which stood, carefully enveloped in
canvass, the new electric cars for the
Wilmington and New Castle Electric
Railway.
Each platform-car was run up to the
Delaware street siding, where a tenn
porary fall was built of one section of
rails spiked to a graded trestle, and by
this the electric cars were run down off
the train to their own track. Thence
they were drawn through town, each
by four horses, over the new railway to
their quarters, at the New Castle ave-
nue. power-house.
Councilman Francis Pagan, who does
some special detective work for the
company, watched around the cars to
keep away vandals and boys until the
cars could be removed. A number of
people, however, got a look inside the
canvas covers and were more than
pleased with the advent of the Will
mington and New Castle Railway Com
pany
The cars are twenty-five feet long
and are of a rich royal blue color, or
namented with carmine and gold fig
ures and letters. The seats are not
only elaborately upholstered. but they
contain the new spring seat arrange
ment, which makes street car riding a
Joy rather than mere drudgery. Two
of the cars arriving yesterday are trail
ers and four of them have electric
heat. They were built by the J. c.
Brill Company.
Their arrival and moving through
town, drawn by the company's horses
last evening, paralyzes the declaration
of number of Wilmington wags that
the New Castle railway had been built
for Wilmington wOrn-Out cars, anC
that as soon as a car becomes too di-
lapidated for the Front street and The
Maryland avenue lines CD il would b'
panned off on New Castle.
The people here have taken thii
thrust with answering good nature
and always replied: ANY old thinl
| that can be pushed along by strong
electric currents will do. Now New
Castle has the best in the world.
