Improving Idlewild Park

Notwithstanding the many expensive
improvements made at Idlewild, on the
Ligonier Valley Railroad, recently,
workmen have been engaged ever since
the close of last season in still furthe I
beautfying the queen of picnic grounds.
Perhaps the most striking new feature
which will greet the visitor during the
1899 season. will be the big new rood
land lake located in the grove Cl the
west side of the Loyalhanna. 1t will be
many acres in extent and will be replete
with wooded islands, grottoes and lily
ponds All the islands will be easily ac-
cessible and there will be numerous
romatic walks and shady retreats.
There will be no boats on the new lake
as on lakes Boquet and ST. Clair. The
thousands who visited Idlewild last
year will be gratifed to learn that there
will be many pleasant surprises and
new attractions awaiting them the com
ing season.
