New York, June 10, 'O6


see of this city the more awful
! you realize what a monster it
lis. Just think of it. On this
block where Franks home is,
more people live than live in
Mo Valley and Logan combined.
In that population there are
| hundreds and thousands of lit
lie children and the only place
they have for their childish
sports is the little piece of side
walk in front of their flats. AS
we watch the little fellows
| playing OF the street we Won
der what they would think if
|..rv We're set down out in the
.Nustiy where God intended
man to live how astonished
he little fellows would be to
set out into the park at the
fair ground or up in the timber
in Snyder's Hollow. 1t would
| be q new world to them. There
! are HUNDREDS; OF thousands of
boys and girls in this city who
have never seen a hog only
| the two legged kind or a COW
OF chickens, OF anything that
God intended should be for
their use. They have seen lions
and tigers and all kinds of ami
mails in the Zoo but of the good
old faithful bessie they know
nothing. We wonder why the
different ZOOS in the city don't
put IN q cow and a hog for the
benefit Of the children. We
went out TO Coney Island yes
terday. We took the express
train on the Subway at l03d
street and were whisked down
to Brooklyn Bridge a distance
lof IL miles, in about IL minutes.
Talk about your fast mail on
the C. & N. w. it isn't in the
same class with this express
train in the subway. 1t is all
right for the New Yorker, but
by the eternal Moses it is too
swift for a country editor.
The idea of tearing along under
ground at the rate of a mile a
minute is too swift for us. The
boy thinks it is all right, but it
is too sudden for the old man.
| don't travel on the subway
any more than can help. We
are not in much of hurry any
how, and a surface car will dc
US. We took the elevated at
the Brooklyn Bridge and after
passing over the bridge started
for Coney Island. / don't
know how far it is down to Con-
ey Island but it seemed to me
it was about two hundred miles
before we got there. 1t is
surely a wonderful place, and
used to be one Of the hardest
places in the city, but is now
first class in every respect, as
no tough business" is tolera-
ted. The best description
can give you of the amusement
features of Coney Island is to
say that it is on the same plan
las the Midway at the worlds
fair, only larger and more ex-
tensive in every reset. We
4 STAYED here an hour and then
took a boat back to the city. 1t
Iis an hour-and-a-half ride bv
boat from the island up to the
Battery, and as you go out in
to the Atlantic you get a taste
!of what trip across the ocean
lis. The wind was blowing a
stiff breeze as we came up and
the white caps were plenty high
Ito suit US. Think we passed
at least 500 ships, tugs, steam
ers and all kinds of craft com
ing up. This is the first time
we were ever on the Atlantic
ocean and we haven't made up
our mind yet whetherwe would
like to go across" or not.
When we got to the Battery,
Frank said he wanted to take

The lecture concert last even
ing was we'll received although
there was not a very large
crowd present. The pictures
were fine and certainly in strik-
ing contrast with the other ones
shown here sometime past. The
local talent numbers were we'll
received, and being brief, the
evenings entertainment was
worth the time.
A fire alarm was turned in at
11:30 to-day and the depart
ment was called to the Cam
residence when a gasoline
stove had exploded. No dam
age done.
Now that the style of canal
has been decided upon we hope
there will be no more unneces-
sary delays, such as investi-
eating committees, etc. There
is no good reason why the canal
work cannot be pushed and the
small differences between SEN
ators and canal officers settled
in some other way.
With the style of the canal
decided upon, the rate, state
hood and meat bills out of the
way, we can see no good reason
why congress cannot adjourn
in the near future.
