August 2S 1903.
According to the schedule of former years,
the summer season at this resort should
now be on the wane. AS a matter Of fact,
however it is almost as crowded as ever
before, and the number of people on the
island today is SO much greater than at
the corresponding period of any other year
that comparison is hardly possible Prec
edent has fixed the 18th of August as the
height of the season, and it was assumed
that this year would be the same. But to
the amazement of the hotel keepers and
the citizens generally, last Sunday exceeded
the record of the preceding one by tens of
thousands of visitors. In short, 1t was the
greatest day in the history of the resort,
and that In spite of the fact that all rec
ordS were broken the week before. AL
though the arrivals on Saturday and Sun
day numbered but 64,6o0, as against over
10000 during the same time of the pre-
ceding week. SO many people had remained
over the week that the total reached the
unprecedented number of over 100000.
