Water Trims Popular

THE steamer lines operating on the
Detroit river and the lakes are being
deprived Of much business this year
because thousands of persons are of the
opinion that the boats are loaded tc
capacity every day of the week" said
o. s. Dustin, general passenger agent
of the Ashley q Dustin line.
because our steamers as we'll as all
other river and lake excursion boats
are usually filled to their passenger
allowance on Sundays, many inquiries
are being made by persons who want
to know when is the best time to take
the cruise to Putin Bay and Cedar
Point.
I'VE can assure everyone that on
Mondays and Fridays throughout the
remainder of the summer that the
steamer Put in Bay will not be filled to
one quarter of its passenger allowance.
No society, factory or fraternal excur-
sions are scheduled for these days and
as result persons who wish to go to
the Lake Erie resorts al d be assured
that the steamer will not be crowded
should plan to make the trip on either
Mondays or Fridays.
"Our passenger business on Sundays
has been unusually large, but we have
taken care of the crowds and very few
people have been unable to take the
trip because the boats were filled to
their passenger allowance.
while the crowds are email on Mon.
days and Fridays, there are always
scores of vacant chairs on the decks on
the other week days and the ball room
is never crowded.
The steamer Put in Bay. was built
to accommodate over 5000 persons
without crowding. and our average
week day passenger list does not aver
age much over 750"

The steamship is armed with one gun

shelled the submarine when she was
attacked, and so seriously damaged
her that she drew off in apparently a
sinking condition.
The battle lasted half an hour, &C.

one shell did serious damage to the
