Everything is prospering here at present and the
prospects for August bright could be
expected, and the coming month will doubt be
record breaker. Thousand Island Park presents
scene of great activity and all the other resorts
along the river beginning feel the effects of
the rush of tourists which began this week. \
number of large parties extended tours through
out this portion of the country have stopped here
for periods of from two days to week. Nearly every
day records the coming of some special excursion
party. Twice this week the boats of the Thousand
Island Steamboat Company catering to this traf-
hc, have been compelled to leave persons the
wharf, their carrying capacity having reached it's
limit The accident which happened to the steamer
st. Lawrence has embarrassed the company to a
considerable extent this week, but the boat will
again be put in commission on Monday. and the
entire squadron will be in readiness to handle the
crowds which the coming month promises to bring.
A large number of persons on pilgrimage to the
shrine of St Anne de Beaupre. just below Quebec,
stopped for a couple of days among the islands
and visited the various island rambles and tours
during that time. There were about two hundred
and fifty in the party. which is only portion of
the large number from this part of the country,
who make this pilgrimage yearly Last summer
over one hundred and fifty thousand persons vis-
tied the shrine, and this summer fully that number
are expected.

movement of property in this region took place
last week. when Frank L. Smith of Orange N. j.
purchased the Friedenburgh farm, adjoining Grand
View Park The intention of the owner is to erect
fine hotel There is a large hill the tract
from which view of the surrounding country for
miles can be obtained. and upon this elevation the
hotel is to be built. The waters about this spot
are noted for the abundance and size of the fish
they contain and in many respects the location is
an especially desirable one. 1t faces the Canadian
Channel. and is in the midst of that picturesque
but unimproved portion of the islands which is
just beginning to be appreciated
