VISITORS TO NEW YORK.
They Crowd the Natives OF Broadway
and Into tho Side Streets.

It has often been remarked by Wis
itors from Denver and other scientific
investigators that New YOrk's Broad
way is apparently patronized by peo-
pie from all over the world except the
native resident Of New York. And II
is probably true that Seattle knows
Its way about the Rialto at least
as well as does East Seventy
street, and the cabarets along the great
white way see more money from Des
Moines than from Amsterdam avenue.
The fact Of the matter Is that the
out Of town visitor, descending upon
the metropolis trained to the minute
with the express intention and deter
mination Of taking In Broadway, sue
ceeds largely In crowding the native
Off the walk.
New York streets which never attain
more than a local fame have become
pleasure grounds for the real New
Yorker. who leaves the streets and the
restaurants OF world reputation to the
hordes of the invader. Such a street,
for instance, Is One Hundred and
Twenty-fifth street, often called by its
frequenters the uptown Broadway"
One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street
lies In the apartment house section,
about In the middle Of the long. mar
row city that Is modern New York.
From here to the Battery Is a long
ride on the express trains. and from
here to the limits OF New York, up be-
yond the Bronx, Is longer ride by
local. The dweler In this section rare
ly takes either Of these rides. He
goes down to the Office In the morning
and in the evening returns to his own
little side street. If he Graves amuse-
ment he strolls down One Hundred
and Twenty-Hfth street-New York

TWIGGS & SONS OF AUGUSTA
WILL WANT TO MAKE THE
STATE AN OFFER.

A. J. Twiggs & Sons, railroad CON
tractors, have filed a request with the
Western & Atlantic releasing com
mission for detail information on what
the state will probably want in The
proposed extension of the Western 2
Atlantic road to the sea; what port
the road likely would touch and the
nature of construction work that
would be desired by the commission
for presentation in its recommends
tions. The firm says it probably will
want to make the state an offer for
the construction of the extension.
That there is any immediate idea
of extending the state road to hte
sea is not considered fact, but it is
a matter which has had the attention
of very many of the people, especially
in south Georgia, for a long time, and
of late they have been giving more
attention to it.
