FLAGLER'S DREAM SOON
TO BE REALIZED

On Tuesday afternoon (Sept. 22)
next, the Florida East Coast Rail-
way Co.'s carferry steamer, Henry
NJ. Flagler, will be launched from
the Cramp shipyards near Philadel-
phia and the Telegram acknowl
edges the receipt of a formal invi-
tation to be present.
This is the boat that is to ferry
the cars across the sea from Hey
West to Havana, the biggest enter
prise of it's kind the world has ever
known and it will make it possible
for the traveller to get in Pullman
at New York city and ride through
to Havana without change of cars.
Among the wonderful achievements
of a wonderful age this must take
high rank, and to the genius and
energy and executive capacity of
that wonderful man, Henry NJ :.
Flagler, must the credit be given.
1t was the dream of his life to
do this thing, and while he did not
live to see it, his was the concep-
tion and his the master mind that
planned the details and provided
the means to execute them.
