Miles of Shady Paths.

Miles of Shady Paths.
To those acquainted with Carlsbad it is
hardly necessary to speak of the particu-
lar attention which is given to this side
of .cure life at the famous spa. The
miles Of shady forest paths, SO beauti-
fully kept that walking upon them be-
comes q pleasure, are all reached from
the town in two steps. and are of such
an extent lover 100 kilometers Of foot
paths and fifty kilometers of carriage
ways) that one can walk for great dis
tanceS without meeting any one. All
pass through some Of the most beautiful
parts of Bohemia. Steep hills, covered
with pine forests. rise on all sides Of
the town, and on the summit of each
Is some little shelter, or cafe, where the
pedestrian can find rest and refresh
ment.
In the distance glimpses may be caught
Of the Erzgebirge mountains, on whose
lofty peaks patches Of snow are to be
seen till late In the summer. at ones
feet the silver .nread of the Tepl winds
its way through the town and falls into
the Egen, and, lest the tired kur-guest
conjured up of the hills round Carlsbad,
mention must be made of the two funic-
ular railways by which the heights may
be reached, and the new lift shortly to
be erected on the Markt plats to the
Schlossberg. In addition to these ad-
vantages, there are the many pastimes
maintained for those more active visitors
who are devotees of sport.
At Carlsbad the golf links are extremely
good and well kept, and they have a
charming situation. being traversed by
the River Tepl. Next to the links come
the famous tennis courts, which cede the
palm to no others In Europe, except, per-
haps, those of the He des Puteaux. The
clubhouse Is fitted with hot and cold
shower baths. Professional trainers are
kept, and the courts themselves are the
acme OF perfection. One must not forget
to mention the fine race course at Meier
hofen. The theater and opera house,
which 1t has just been decided to build
will give Carlsbad the additional. repu-
tation Of a famous musical center.
The numerous cafe gardens In the
neighborhood Of the town, which, It Il
claimed have given rise to the fame OF
the Carlsbad breakfast, are also worthy
OF mention. Hither the kur-guest, after

Outlook in England Also Improves.

London, March 3O.-AlthOugh a
week must elapse before many of the
collieries are reopened, ever if the
miners decision is favorable to a ter
mination of the coal strike, indica-
tons afforded by the ballots thus far
taken are that a large majority of
the men will vote for resumption Of
work.
This enables the country to face
with comparative equanimity the
prospect of a continuance for anOth-
er week of the industrial diSlOcatiOn.
With hardly any exception leaders
Of the miners are C~ounselling the men
to vote for a resumption, and al
though some districts are ballOting
contrary to this advance the aggregate
figures SO far received show a great
