MoREHEaD AND THE ATLANTIC.
A Panorama of Innumerable Attrac-
tiOns Which Have Made This
Resort so Popular.

Morehead iCty, n. c., June %
What a refreshing shower OF delight
full "reminiscences sweeps through the
minds of the habitues of this popular
resort at the mere mention of the
name-Morehead.
The grand old Atlantic, with its bal
comics and arcades, with its magnifi-
cent dancing and dining halls. with its
verandas and parlors and porticos all
echoing and re-echoing from June UNI
ill October with merriment and Salety,
it's environments of cottages ana otner
buildings all out of reach of the dan
gerous pillows that the storm king OF
the seas sometimes hurl against the
beach just across the intervening wa
tiers.
With the thought of Morehead and
the famous old Atlantic come charm
ing visions of white-winged sharpies,
exhilarating remembrances of those
same sharpies out beyond the breakers
bounding from billow to billow with
trolling lines in tow hauling in the
earnest fish of the sea, the Spanish
mackerel and blue fish.
Then come other visions of the wind
ing reel, pulling out from amid the
breakwaters and fighting, daring,
daShing Sheephead ana the golden
gilded trout.
To the mathers and matrons come
recollections of the children's play
grounds, along beside and under the
shallow waters of the silent sound
To the bellies and beaus sweet dreams
of germans, quadrilles and gliding
waltzes in the beautiful breeze-sWept
ball room. To the hungry delightful
odors from the great rows of dining
tables that almost stagger under the
weight of the choicest viands that can
be gathered from the warm lands
that surround this favored spot, OF
from the sea, sound and rivers that
environ it. To the thirsty
sparkles from the lemonades, Julips
high-balls and other ice cold
beverages compounded by experts in
the we'll known building just cross the
way. To the tired and weary longings
to be at rest among the spray-laden
zephyrs and breezes that forever fan
every nook and corner of the commod-
ious buildings.
