Two Cents a Mile Fare.
From the Providence Journal

1t Is believed that within five years cents
a mile Will be the regular rate of fare on
the steam roads of New England. This
prediction is based on the fact that the COM
panies are now making concessions to trav-
elers, who insist that 21a cents a mile fs too
high a price for transportation, and that
something should be done for those who
cannot afford to pay $2usfor a mileage book.
The New York, New Haven and Hartford
which gets credit for disposition not to be
hasty in complying with requests for lower
fares, has been unable to resist the pressure
in Massachusetts,; II has Joined other COM
panies in selling 5OO-mile books for $40.

The possibilities of Eggemoggin are
enormous. For many miles the blue

cliffs which have withstood for ages
its ceaseless inroads.

Wooded islands dot the bay, beautiful
in their emerald hue, and there is fresh
invigorating air enough going to waste
to restore the hue of health to many a
pale and sunken face. The natives are
kindly people, and, as rule they were
born on the island and their parents be-
fore them. Their lives are quiet and
simple enough, and in the main are
bounded by their island homes, and are
centered in the vessels whose white
wings come and go on the bosom of the
dancing waves.
Sometimes their loved ones go out
never to return until the sea gives up
its dead, for storms are not wanting in
these island Businesses, and the tragic
story of sudden death leaves it's i'm

Down at Eggemoggin the pretty villas
stand in sort of a semicircle. and
after the sun sinks to rest in cleal
sky, the afterglow is indescribably
beautiful, as one stands on the little
hill above to view it.
By and by, as night settles down an6
