On Pleasure Bent.

If you are to take a trip for pleasure
to any point in the West, you certainly
want all the comforts to be had. 1t
means that you must buy your ticket
via the Lake Shore and Michigan
Southern Railways. It's trains are fast
and frequent. Its cars are comfortable
and easy, and the entire route passes
through the most picturesque portion
of the Middle States. Every safeguard
known to inventive genius is Elrown
over and around patrons. and yet,
withal, it's rates of fare are as low as
is consistent with fine service. If you
are on pleasure bent. your ticket must
surely read Lake Shore and Michigan
Southern Railway.

PLAN TO LESSEN DANGER.
Derailing Switch Suggested at West
Lackawanna Avenue Crossing,

The following plan of lessening the
danger at the West Lackawanna ave-
nue. crossing is suggested by a SUBJ
scriber:
We hear great deal about the danger
GUS crossing of the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western railroad and Scran-
ton Street railroad Just west of Hyde
Park bridge and wish to suggest a rem
edy. viz: Place derail switch far
enough above the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western railroad crossing to derail
car and turn it i'm towards the Della
ware, Lackawanna and Western freight
house In case brake failed or they lest
power and run back.
1t could be a spring switch that is al
ways open, to he closed by conductor of
car coming down hill and car ascending
grade would close il and IT would spring
open after car passed. This would not
cost much and might save Il number OF
valuable lives.

remarked enthusiastically yesterday;

knows. The streets are the finest I

have no fault to find with them. 1t is
very seldom that you see any of them
drunk or disorderly on the streets, and
they are always es polite and courteous
as possible.
What struck me in particular was
the magnificent pasture lands and the
cattle I saw in the country districts.
Fine, sleek animals, as splendid stock
as can be found the world over.
