combined to make this week at Block Island ideal.
1t is much too cool for business say the hotel
keepers for with such weather this one can be
comfortable in the cities. For this reason the
customary August rush has not yet begun. but
those who come because they love the island, and
not because the heat is unbearable at home, are
here. and pronounce the climate perfect.
From Beacon Hill Observatory. the highest point
Of land on the island, with the aid of the
telescope which has been put in. could dis
tnctly see both people and objects at Watch Hill
on clear days this week
The yachts OF the New-York Yacht Club have
attracted considerable interest this week. Parties
have left the island to the races and several
OF the yachts have been anchored in the new har-
Dor all the week
The bathing beach has suffered a little from
the cool weather as the visitors here have found
active sports, such bowling. golf. tennis ana
baseball. more pleasant Long walks, too, have
been popular the roads are now In excellent
condition and the air bracing-
Bluefsh continue abundant and the fishermen do
not lack enthusiasm. A party Of four from the
National went out Friday. and in a few hours re-
turned bringing sIxty-seven pounds Of bluehsh'
averaging from six to ten pounds each
Those who prefer the sport with the harpoon
are equally successful. for very seldom do the
fishing boats return without bringing in several
huge swordiSh.
