The^" KiTTATiNNY," Open from May ist to November, hardly needs introduction to people familiar with the beautiful Delaware Valley. It is the pioneer of the resort hotels of the State, and enjoys the present distinc- tion of being one of the best known and most fortunate in beauty of location. From a quaint mountain inn of half a century ago, the Kittatinny has grown continuoiisly and so added to its appointment with its ever-increasing popularity that to-day it is the largest and one of the best hotels on the Delaware, receiving 350 guests and pos- sessing a fame as wide as that of the storied Water Gap itself. The house stands on a smooth plateau two hundred feet above the river, with the perfect picture of the river and the towering mountains that form the " Gap " on the one hand, and a wealth of natural beauty the background on the other. One hundred and fifty acres of private grounds form a park, -wdth the lakes and mountain streams, rustic paths leading to every point of interest, and rustic structural to add to its effect. Within the hotel the appointments are complete, and suggestive in man}' details of the delightful outing life of which this is the centre. The parlors, reception and reading rooms, office, corridors and bed-rooms are large, airy and tastefully furnished. A number of the bed-rooms are en suite with bath and private balconies. The dining-room, occupying the first floor of the main building, recently built, seats three hundred. The cuisine is in charge of an experienced chef. An unlimited supply of purest water from mountain springs is furnished in each, both hot and cold. Other appointments include hydraulic elevator, gas, electric bells, billiard room, a well equipped livery, and an elegant orchestra. The hotel is heated throughout by steam for the comfort of those desiring to come out in the early spring, or remaining through the fall. Circulars and information as to how best to get here may be obtained at our New York office, care The Recreation Department, T/ie Outlook, 13 Astor Place, New York City, or by writing to the above address. ^ ^ BRODH EAD & SONS, LOCAL AND LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE. q . , GOLF GROUNDS NEAR HOTELS. rrOpnetOTS.

Y 1 PIvACE where the sick are treated upon scientific principles and for perma- C~~i uent cures. Hundreds of people who are hopeless about getting well are J permanently cured in a reasonable length of time under the application of these principles. Continued dosing, patching and temporizing never bring permanent health. The laws of cure are just as exact and reliable as any of the physical laws of the universe. Every form of disease is curable under this system of treatment. Why does our system reach every form of disease? Because it removes the causes and develops the healing power — which is the life principle of the organism — and provides help for it to operate in a true and positive manner in accordance with the laws by which health is restored and preserved. Daily, systematic, persistent work is required in bringing the body under the discipline of the strictest health rules, with the mind hopeful and full of purpose and determination to overcome disease. No half-hearted, loose, disjointed measures are applied here but a clear definite system, and we get clear, definite, permanent results. --.-r.Every facility for treatment at all seasons. No better climate in the world. Water, clear and sparkling. Table abundantly supplied with healthfully prepared, nutritious food. Our guests continually express great satisfaction in the home-like, restful, ele- vating influences arising from the unaffected religious atmosphere which is charac- teristic of the Institution.

B. Somerset Inn © © © THE SOMERSET INN, near Bernardsville, on the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad, is located among the highlands of New Jersey, in Somerset County (and in addition to the Inn there are for rent eight (8) handsome cot- tages, which cost to build |6,ooo to ^9,000 each, and are beautifully furnished-). Appreciation of the healthfulness and^^charms of this section is shown in the many beautiful homes with which the hills are dotted. The most important feature of this part of the coimtry, however, is its healthful- ness. The spring water, of which there is an unlimited supply, has been again and again analyzed, with the result that it has-been pronounced by chemists the purest of waters. The dryness of the climate has proved especially beneficial to those suffering from rheumatism, neuralgia and weakness of throat and lungs. Hard wood floors and trim, handsome new furnishings throughout, the best of beds, large, well-ventilated bed rooms and bath rooms, hot and cold water, gas, steam heat, open fire-places, spacious parlors, reading rooms, foyer hall and wide piazzas, make one's surroundings at Somerset Inn homelike and comfortable to a degree rarely found abroad. Every convenience is maintained looking to the comfort of our guests; telephone, telegraph, post-office, good livery service, best accommodations for private turnouts, laundry, bowling alley, tennis court, golf links, billiard room, etc., while comforta- ble stages, meeting the eight trains each way daily, make the Inn easy of access. Better roads for driving and cycling, more picturesque drives and walks, better water, milk and air, can no where be found. The country, lying as it does 800 feet above sea level, warm nights are unknown, and there are no nuisances, not even mosquitos. The grounds are tastefully laid out, and shade trees abound. The children have not been forgotten. A fine play-ground in the pretty grove is arranged for their pleasiire, and a play-room, for those days which must come now and then, when the little ones cannot go out of doors. Here they may enjoy them- selves to their hearts' content, and annoy no one. This is not an idealized picture of what we wish we could offer, but a plain statement of facts. Where else, so easily reached, can such accommodations and environments be found ? The Inn will open for guests May ist and remain open until November ist. Should further information be desired, MR. GEO. W. TUTTLE, the manager, may be found at the Inn, and will gladly accord every courtesy and attention to inquirers, either personally or by mail. P. o.

The complete register that is given of all the available rural or urban spots along its line between New York and Buffalo, cannot but help the tourist, the vacationist and the holiday seeker in the selection of a resort, wherein the summer months can be spent to an advantage. A glance at the following page^ will suffice to show that many of the most famous resorts in the States of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York are directly on the Lackawanna Line, so that special allusion to them here is unnecessary. A descrip^tion of each place is given, much space being devoted to such among them as rank as summer resorts of national fame. The illustrations herein contained are reproductions of photographs taken from scenes along the railroad, and are of a miscellaneous character. A feature that will commend itself at once is the exhaustive list of routes and rates that is given, and which can be utilized in connection with tickets purchased via the Lackawanna Road. Those in search of rest, of recreation, or of sport have only to glance through these pages, and from among the many mountain, lake and river resorts described, or from those where wealth and fashion reign supreme, select a place to their taste. The Lackawanna penetrates a section of country so diversified and so picturesque, that any person with an appreciation for the Creator's handiwork, as displayed through almost the entire region traversed by this road, will be apt to reflect befo;e making a choice. Great care has been taken in the compilation of this book to guard against errors, and it is offered to the public as a reliable guide and a work replete with interesting reading. The Company feels assured that the public will appreciate the effort that has here been put forward, and presents it to the public with the compliments of the Passenger Department.

FERRIES, N leaving New York, the traveler by the Dei^a- WARE, Lackawanna & Western Railroad is carried across the Hudson b}; well-appointed, double-decked ferry-boats, equipped with spa- cious upper and lower cabins, and lighted with electricity. Barclay Street. The ferry from the foot of this street makes the trip to Hoboken in twelve min- utes. Christopher Street. The trip across is made in five minutes. Hoboken. ' Here is located the terminus of the Company's road, the depot being a model of artis- tic beauty. The station is Gothic in design, with long sloping roofs, and on the northern side has a high, narrow tower, which adds greatly to its attractiveness. The general waiting-room is both large and airy. On the east side is the ticket office ; on the south side is a room for ladies and a smoking room for gentlemen. On the north side are entrances for Hoboken patrons, as well as for those who cross from New York by the two ferries. A good res- taurant, where a buffet lunch can be obtained, is provided in the waiting-room, and confectionery, fruit, etc., is obtaina- ble at the counter adjoining. The baggage-room is on the north-west corner, and pas- sengers and others will always receive prompt and polite attention and answers to inquiries from the employees in that department. The United States, the only Express Company operating over the Delaware, L,ackawanna & "Western Railroad, has an office located near the baggage-room, where its patrons can secure the benefits of its superb service. Its Order and Com- mission Department can be called upon to procure for the Summer Guest or others all that is needed, either from the city or the country. Experienced and well-informed ushers are stationed at the doors, through which passengers pass to the trains. These men give the inquirer any information concerning the arrival and departure of trains, and, before the departure of each train, call out the names of all the stations along the route at which stoppage will be made. The above-stairs portion of the station contains the head- quarters of this railroad's branch of the Young Men's Chris- tian Association, which are fitted up attractively. The con- ductors have a comfortably appointed room, adjoining, and a furnished reception room. Baths, hot and cold, are pro- vided. There is also a room in which all the men can meet for social intercourse, reading, playing games, etc. " ' " THE HALL BLOCK SIGNAL. 20 DELAWAKE, LACKAWANNA & WESTEHN The large train shed contains nine tracks, all of which are occupied the greater part of the time by the incoming and outgoing trains. It has been the policy of this Company to abandon regular train service on Sundays, and this has been found to work to the best advantage. Only newspaper and milk trains are run on Sundays, and this cannot very well be avoided. The motive power and rolling equipment of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western are of the most approved types. The loco- motives are built for speed, and with a view to hauling capacity. Spark arresters and extension fronts are being applied to all of those engines that were built prior to these innovations in modern mechanics, and all new engines are fitted with these appliances/ when built. In addition each engine is equipped with the " Blizzard " engine lamp for classification service. The exteriors of the cars are painted in the Companj^'s standard color, dark green, while the interiors are finished in polished mahogany. The Company has adopted the Pintscli system of car lighting. Each car is fitted with globes containing four burners, from which a clear, white, brilliant light is obtained, which enables passengers to read in any part of a car without straining the eyes. It is the opinion of experienced travelers that no railroad in this country runs better equipped, or has more easy riding cars than these ; and all trains are protected at the rear by two titility side tail lamps, well elevated, thus securing the longest possible range for the rear danger signal. The Gould Continuous Platform and Passenger Coupler is used, making the trains virtually one car from one end of the train to the other, causing the trains to jide very much more smoothly and being more conveniently agreeable to our patrons. On all through express trains the modern vestibule attachment is used, and Pullman's best drawing room and sleeping-cars are run. The Lackawanna is a double-track line to Buffalo, and is the shortest route run- ning between New York and that city. The road-bed is heavily ballasted with gravel and sand and is of unusual firmness. The heaviest steel rails are used to accom- modate the additional weight of the constantly improving motive power and rolling stock. B)^ reason of these improvements traveling on this line is accompanied with all available ele- ments of comfort and ease. The enjoyment of this result of skillful engineering and car building is materially increased by the using of anthracite coal in the locomotives. ^^^^ "blizzard. " UTILITY." DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 31 rRorris ana €$sex Di()ision* rROM HOBOKEN the Morris and Essex Division extends westward. One line runs by way of Morristown, taking in the most beautiful and healthful resident section of Northern New Jersey. The Boonton Branch diverges in a northerly direction after leaving the big Bergen tunnel at West End, touching at Pater- son and Boonton, crossing the former line at Denville and again connecting with it at Photo by H. A. Henckel, N. Y. DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN STATION AND FERRY, HOBOKEN, N.J. Dover, from which places both lines are operated westward as one to Washington, W'arren County, N. J., seventy miles froniHoboken. The first station in New Jersey, beyond Hoboken, is HARRISON. Altitude, 20 ft. 7.14 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 15 cts.; Excursion ticket, 25 cts. This town, formerly known as East Newark, is situated in Hudson County, and borders on the Passaic River. It is principally known for its manufacturing indus- tries. 22 DELAWAHE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN K.'r. NEWARK, Altitude, SSft. 7.61 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 13 cts.: Excursion Ticket, 25 cts. This city is the commercial metropolis of New Jersey. It is situated on the west bank of the Passaic River, upon which craft of all kinds ply, and affords important Cummunication with New York through Newark Bay and Staten Island Sound. Newark is one of the oldest cities in the vState. It covers a large area in Essex County, and ranks as one of the most important manufacturing centres of the United States. Its iroji and leather industries being among its chief industries. The population is over one hundred and eighty thousand. Broad Street running north and south through the city, is one of the most attractive thoroughfares in the country, containing many great business houses, elegant residences and churches. Washington and Military Parks, with their numerous stately elms, are the pride of Newarkers. High Street is famous for the architectural beauty of its numerous costly dwelling houses. The extreme northern, southern and western sections of the city are largely occupied by residences, and Newark lays just claim to having throughout clean and well-maintained streets. The famous Passaic River course, where the National Association of Amateur Oarsmen occasionally settle their contests is situated here, and the course is known as one of the best for rowing used. It is decidedly picturesque on the Kearney side of the river, and at intervals, along both shores, the boat-houses of the various clubs are located. All conveniences of a first-class city can be had here. These include gas, electric light, fine hotels and boarding-houses, good street car systems, theatres, athletic clubs and churches of every denomination. The drives in all directions are pleasing. Newark, too, is a healthful and well governed city. Its death rate is low, and epidemics seldom prevail. Several first-class daily papers supply the news. The society of the city includes a number of the most famous families of New Jersey. ROSEVILLE AVENUE, Altitude, lia ft, 8.57 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 15 cts.; Excursion ticket, 25 cts. Formerly Roseville was a suburb of Newark, but the phenomenal growth of that city absorbed it. It is wholly a residential section, and stands high and dry at the sunmiit of the heaviest grade on the division. The houses are tastefully built, nearly all of them being surrounded by gardens. Roseville Avenue is destined to become the most thickly settled part of the city, and residences are increasing with a rapidity worthy of a Western boom. At this station the Bloomfield Branch leaves the main line. The first stop is at WATSESSING, Altitude, 135 ft, II miles from New York ; Single ticket; 23 cts.; Excursion ticket, 40 cts. Here there is but a small settlement and a few farms. This is a congenial spot for quietude, and the residents have all the desirable elements of sociability. An im- portant and progressive village just beyond it is BLOOMFIELD, Altitude, 12h ft_ 11.62 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 25 cts.; Excursion ticket, 45 cts. The history of this town is associated with Revolutionary times, and it is among the best known places in the State. Although the enterprise of modern civilization DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 23 lias imprinted itself in every section, yet there are some old-fashioned houses and other landmarks which serve to remind one that Bloomfield was on record a century ago. At the head of the park stands the old church, a sacred pile, that for more than one hundred years has stood to the glory of God. For many years Bloomfield has been the favorite resort of summer visitors. It is rich in its arboreal growth, lias fine roads, good society, and all the elements that arise from thrift and progres- siveness. It is the home of many prominent business men, and the residences, in many instances, are both sumptuous and costly. Adjoining Bloomfield, and but one mile beyond it, is GLEN RIDGE. Altitude, 170 ft. 12.24 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 27 cts.; Excursion ticket. 47 cts. It can be consistently said that this is one of New Jersey's beauty spots. Built, as it is upon a hill, which commands a charming view of the surrounding country, an attractiveness is given it that favors but few places in this region. Ten years ago ■Glen Ridge was little more than a wooded slope. Wealth and enterprise have developed the available acres, and the work of improvement is still progressing. This is a village of handsome residences, grassy lawns, park-like estates, and fine roads. The residents, for the most part, are New Yorkers, and these have all the push that characterizes the wide-awake Gothamite. Glen Ridge is a pleasant and a convenient spot in which to spend a summer. The last station on the branch is MONTCLAIR, Altitude, 239 ft. 13.18 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 30 cts.; Elxcursion ticket, 50 cts. Montclair ( often called the Athens of New Jersey ) , lying on the eastern slope of the Orange Mountains, is unsurpassed for beauty of situation and healthfulness in the -vicinity of the metropolis. The majority of the residences command magnificent views of New York harbor and the surrounding country. The population is ten thousand, and the town is growing rapidly in a very sub- stantial way. The public schools are excellent, and there is a military academy and several private schools. The churches represent all the denominations. The water supply is excellent, and the town enjoys all modern improvements. Three newspapers record all local matters of interest. Mountain Avenue, running at the base of the mountain from the Orange line to Upper Montclair (3^ miles), dotted by magnificent residences, is said to surpass any avenue or street in the vicinity of New York. Montclair cannot be seen, to be appreciated, in an hour or two. One must pene- trate its by-ways and shaded avenues to realize how much nature has done for this terraced hamlet. About two-thirds of the roads are macadamized, and it will only be a matter of a few years when they will all be so. This town may be recommended as desirable in every way, as a place of residence. Verona, and CaleU. are villages beyond Montclair, which are not on this line of railroad, but communica- tion with them is attained by a stage route that connects with all Lackawanna trains at Montclair. The stage fare is 10 cents. 24 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. Mention is made of these places, as they are widely known and appreciated for their remarkable health-possessing qnalities, and the picturesqueness of the surround- ing country, together Avith their adaptability for summer residence. Returning again to the main-line, the next station beyond Roseville Avenue is GROVE STREET, EAST ORANGE. Altitude, ir,3 ft. 9.61 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 20 cts.; Excursion ticket, 30 cts. A town of phenomenal growth and rich with pretty homes. The streets are uniformly laid out, paved, curbed, and have flagged sidewalks. A feature of the place is that the houses, for the most part, are built separately, and have spacious lawns, neat gardens, and beaittiful shade. The streets, too, are lined with spreading shade trees. There are churches of all denominations within easy reach. The near- ness to Newark and New York makes Grove Street a partictilarly desirable place of residence or temporary sojourn. The Orange Athletic Club, known the country over, has fine grounds located here in the vicinity of the railroad station. - EAST ORANGE, Altitude, 172 ft. 10.05 miles from New York ; Single ticket. 25 cts.; Excursion ticket, 35 cts. The same may be said of East Orange as has been said of Grove Street. In reality the former may be called the town proper, as many of the large stores that supply residents are located here. No more bustling little place exists on the line. It has all the elements of enterprise, including water, electric light, etc., schools, churches, social clubs, etc. BRICK CHURCH, Altitude. ISO ff. 10.61 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 25 cts.; Excursion ticket. 40 cts. Years ago, before the Oranges gained the enviable distinction the}- now possess as places of residence, the old brick church marked the place surrounding which this delightful town has been built. The name, therefore, for some reason, has clung to it. Years ago the name may have been appropriate, but to-day it has no special sig- nificance beyond that it recalls memories of times gone bj*. Brick Church may be said to be in the heart of the Oranges. There are but few luxuries obtainable in a large city not available here, and this town long since established for itself a reputa- tion for being a most desirable one for residence. Here, situated on Prospect Street, is the beautiful home of the Orange Club, the principal social organization of the Oranges, and also the Orange Athletic Club House, which is both spacious and artistic in design. ORANGE, Altitude, 185 ft. 11.32 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 25 cts.; Excursion ticket, 40 cts. The city is located on a plain, almost level, and in all New Jersey no more delightful one can be found. Along the main avenue stores of all kinds do a thriving business. Electric and other street cars run to nearby points, arrangements in this respect being most convenient. The streets of the city are uniformly laid out and delightftilly shaded. The private residences have spaciotis lawns about them, and many of the structures are marvels of architectural beauty. Electric lights and good DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN U. R. 25 water are among the luxuries. The city supports an opera house, and two or three newspapers. Churches of all denominations raise their spires in every part of the town. The system of schools is as perfect as can be found anywhere. A charm about the city is the high mountain range that skirts the western boundary. The range is called Orange Mountains, and is a spur of the Blue Ridge. It runs toward the north- east, and slopes gracefully toward the valley in which the city is partly located. At the summit of the mountain is located Llewellyn Park, laid out with every elegance of taste and effect in artistic landscape gardening. It contains the homes of wealthy people and is acknowledged to be the most magnificent spot in New Jersey. Nearby, from Eagle Rock, a view of 25 miles around the country can be had. Thomas Edison,, the " wizard of electricity, " has a fine home in the park, as also had the late Gen. McClellan. The side of the mountain is flecked with imposing residences and finely- laid out grounds ; among the oldest and finest being that of the Essex County Country Club, whose historic house and beautiful grounds make it one of the most charming; country clubs in America. HIGHLAND AVENUE, Altitude, 1S2 ft. 12.20 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 30 cts.; Excursion ticket, 50 cts. A few years ago this section of the Oranges was called " Valley Station," because the business portion lies in a valle}-. The name, in a sense, was misleading, because the side hills afford a most beautiful residence section. In addition to being a most desirable place in which to reside. Highland Avenue has a commercial importance. Its hat industry is very extensive, and the quality of the hats made ranks favorably with those manufactured elsewhere. An incline railway near here conveys passengers to the summit of the Orange Mountains, and a ride on it is an enjoyable experience. MOUNTAIN STATION Altitude, 156 ft. 13.05 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 35 cts.; Excursion ticket, 55 cts. There is a vast difference between this and its nearest neighbor. While Highland- Avenue is really a very busy place, Mountain Station is the opposite. Essentially a town of homes it is picturesque in the extreme. Nature has been allowed to hold sway to a very large extent, and the feature that will impress the visitor most favorably is the magnificent shade that makes the summer months congenial. To the north the valley reaches until it meets the mountains, and is dotted with pretty residences. Ta the south the hill rises gradually from the railroad station, and residences with park- like grounds are to be seen in all directions, and extend along westward until they unite with SOUTH ORANGE, Altitude, 139 ft. 13. 82 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 40 cts.; Excursion ticket, 60 cts. The Oranges terminate here after occupying five miles of territory. South Orange is an important place, because it is the terminus of a number of express and accom- modation trains to and from New York. Like the other towns it is famous as a place of residence. Churches and schools are plenty, and good local government is a feature that recommends it. The drives about South Orange are romantic, and good roads are the rule. The "Field Club," an organization that needs no introduction, is favorably known wherever outdoor sports are disctissed and indulged in. The club- 26 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. house and beautifully laid out grounds between Mountain Station and South Orange are in plain view of passing trains, and here the wealth and beauty of the united Oranges meet in season to enjoy some of the best contests of the State The club-house is equipped with all the appurtenances of a first-class club, together with the necessary conveniences of one devoted so largely to field sports. The grounds, twelve acres in extent, include a quarter mile bicycle-track, three baseball diamonds, eight tennis courts, two football fields, croquet grounds, quoit courts, shooting traps, etc. From early summer till late in the fall, open tournaments are held in all out-door sports, in which the prominent amateur athletes of the country participate, and the bicycle and foot races, tennis and trap-shooting contests, attract widespread attention. A most interesting feature connected with the Field Club is the opportunity it affords to all its members for indulging in out-door sports and games. " Business men's" contests in baseball, tennis, quoits, etc., take place during the season, and those only are allowed to compete who have never acquired much skill in such sports. The prominent athletes have their opportunity in the open tournaments. Further, the children of members have exceptional facilities for innocent and healthy amus^ ment in the grounds, and are afforded every protection by the keepers in charge. The Field Club is essentially a family club, and is readily taken advantage of by all who are attracted to South Orange and its vicinity, and as a family summer resort it is very popular. In -wnnter part of the grounds are flooded and good skating is enjoyed. MAPLEWOOD, Altitude, 131 ft. 15.33 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 45 cts.; Excursion ticket, 65 cts. A very pretty place for persons who delight in beautiful scenery is Maplewood. Its location, at the base of the mountain, gives it a wild charm. As yet the village bas not developed to any great size, but it has several very pretty cottages situated on well-made streets, and there is plenty of shade. It has excellent water, fine drives, and pure mountain air. For a summer vacation spot it ranks among the most desirable. WYOMING, Altitude, 160 ft. 16.36 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 50 cts.; Excursion ticket, 70 cts. Wyoming is a delightful little town, situated right on the side of the mountain. At this point the " first mountain " turns directly northward. Here are many beau- tiful homes, with spacious grounds, in the midst of a high- wooded slope, where all is wild and picturesque. The scenery around Wyoming is charming, and never grows tiresome. There is not an objectionable feature in the town or neighborhood. It is essentially a home-spot, and persons who go there never regret it. MILBURK Altitude, 11,8 ft. 17.01 miles from New York ; Siugle ticket, 50 cts.; Excursion ticket, 75 cts. This is an old-fashioned town with quaint houses, whose style of architecture suggests a half-century or more ago. It even possesses the conventional mill-pond, which adds to its antiquated appearance. Millburn has always been a popular place for summer boarders. It is surrounded by farms and has good boarding-houses in town. An excellent supply of water is one of the essential features of the place, and DKLAWAISK, LACKAWANNA & WESTEKN R. R. 27 its well-cared for roads are known all over the State. The terminus of the Milburn bicycle course is here, and in the season wheeling never ceases. SHORT HILLS, Altitude, 206 ft. 17.S4 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 55 cts. ; Excursion ticket, So cts. Short Hills can be especially recommended as a charming place of residence. Situated in a large park, the residences, all of which are palatial, occupy plots, around which wind smooth macadamized roads. There are no fences round-about, and every house has a well-appointed stable attached. The aim of the individual who established Short Hills has been carried out well. It is for homes only, and not a single place of business is connected with it. A few years ago this delightful spot was but a wooded slope. Enough of the grand old forest trees have been preserved to afford a pleasing shade, that in summer almost hides the houses from view. HUNTLY, Altitude, 306 ft. 19. II miles from New York ; Single ticket, 55 cts. ; Excursion ticket, 80 cts. A little station on the mountain, established to accommodate the few people who reside there. A fine view of the valley can be had, and on a clear day New York 3Jay is visible. SUMMIT. Altitude, 385 ft. 20.19 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 55 cts. ; Excursion ticket, .80 cts. There is no place on this line that can lay claim to more advantages than Sum- mit. As its name implies it is situated on the brow of the second mountain, and is reached after the hard climb of a grade that begins at Milburn. This village has developed solely on its own merits. Its growth has been strong .and so far shows no signs of abating. Backing the development of Summit are men of wealth and thrift. The houses that are in course of erection are attractively laid ■out, and its macadamized streets, of which there are over fifty, are of the finest and most elaborate kind. Owing to its altitude Summit is a bracing spot in which to spend the summer. The air is always fresh and salubrious, and on that account per- :sons afflicted with pulmonary troubles have made it their permanent home. In sum- mer the population generally doubles. All the hotels and boarding-houses, of which there are many of the first-class, are well patronized, and the place in summer pre- :sents a lively appearance. Many of the permanent residents rent their homes for the season, and the demand often exceeds the supply. Looking northward from Summit is a magnificent view of the Passaic Valley and Blue Ridge Mountain, and towards the southeast Brooklyn, New York Bay and Staten Island can be seen. The drives through the valleys and over the mountains are magnificent. Churches of the Episcopal, Methodist, Presbyterian, Baptist and Catholic faiths abound. The social centre is the Casino Club, to which is attached a theatre, bowl- ing alley, etc. The Club is composed of the prominent men of the place and is well patronized. The Fresh-Air Home, so well known, and with which many benevolent ■women of Summit are identified, is situated on Stony Hill, south of Summit. The town is lighted with gas, and has a new and excellent sewerage system ; it is also ■supplied by the Commonwealth Water Company with pure water drawn from springs in the mountain. At Summit the Passaic and Delaware Branch diverges toward the west and runs for 21 miles through a valley of unsurpassed beauty and loveliness. The first station is 28 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. WEST SUMMIT, Altitude, iHtOft. 22 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 65 cts. ; Excursion ticket, 95 cts. A small settlement of quiet homes. The surrounding country is given up to agricultural pursuits. MURRAY HILL, Altitude, 251 ft. 23.50 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 70 cts.; Excursion ticket, Ji.oo. The ridge that skirts the village on the east is from whence the place is named. Several elegant homes of New Yorkers are situated here, and the view is extensive and very fine. The country is fertile and studded with many prosjjerous farms. BERKELEY HEIGHTS, Altitude, 'isr.ft, 25. SS miles from New York ; Single ticket, 75 cts.; Excursion ticket, $1.10. Until very recenth^ this place was unimportant. A company, having purchased a tract of land, has parcelled it out in building lots and laid out streets, and Berkeley Heights is soon destined to become a thriving spot. GILLETTE, Altitude, HIS ft. 27.25 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 85 cts.; Excursion ticket. Si. 15. A quiet settlement, surrounded by hills and containing charming patches of scenery.

Aside from this, agriculture is the principal pursuit. MILLINGTON, Altitude, 27h ft. 30.25 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 95 cts.; Excursion ticket, $1.25. This is one of the most picturesque spots on the branch. The Passaic River here seen winds around big bluffs and through fertile meadows, and gives a charm to the surroundings seldom met.

BERNARDSVILLE, Altihi.de, hSO ft. 34.80 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.10 ; Excursion ticket, $1.45. This attractive place, situated as it is in the midst of the Somerset County hills, is frequentl}' alluded to as the " Alps " of New Jersey, and the name is not misapplied. Being bej^ond the first range of mountains (the Oranges) west of New York, the dis- tinct change from the dampness of the ocean to dry mountain air is at once felt. The entire section abounds in wild scenery, changing from a very extensive outlook over and beyond fertile valleys to byways through gorges, alongside of mountain streams amidst luxuriant foliage. The mountain roads are hard and always smooth, and lead in all directions through pretty villages and an extremely prosperous farming section. Since its first settlement by New Yorkers, many years ago, Bernardsville has been the most popular of New-Jersey resorts until now its population is represented largely by summer residents, whose beautiful and costly residences dot the hills and appear at ever)' turn in the landscape. Near here is situated " Round Top," the beautiful home of Frederic P. Olcott of New York City, comprising one thousand acres of land, and the most extensive breeding farm in the-East. It is worth a day's journey to visit this estate. Its miles of shaded drives are always open to the public. The Bernards- ville-Mendham district has long been famous as a health resort to those suffering; from rheumatism and complaints of a malarial origin ; there is no marshy ground in this section of mountain and valleys, and mosquitos are unknown. Situated in the hills between Bernardsville and Mendham is the " Somerset Inn," altitude 850 feet ; surrounded by eight cottages especially well built and furnished for the accommodation of the guests of the hotel, it is the best equipped mountain hotel within 100 miles of New York. The Inn has recently been enlarged and refitted, and affords accommodations that can be favorably compared with any other first-class hotel in the country. Special fast train service brings Bernardsville within one hour of New York by rail. The Inn accommodates 350 guests.

GLADSTONE, Altitude, 2ii0ft. 42.20 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.40 ; Excursion ticket, I1.S5, The general character of all these places is similar. The region, on account of the lack until recently of railroad facilities, is undeveloped, Peapack notwithstanding. The Rockaway Valley Railroad touches here, on its way between Whitehouse and Mendham, and these two lines are destined to build up this spot. Gladstone is an^ 33 DELAWAKE, LACKAWANNA & WESTEKN K. R. old place -with a new name, and is a town that has made great strides since it obtained railroad facilities.

The Passaic River flows through it, and affords good fishing and boating ; the drives through the valley and over Long Hill are delightful. The Chatham Fish and Game Protection Association, which has recently erected a handsome Club House here, looks after the fish and game in the vicinity. Stanley, situated south of Chatham on the Eastern slope of Long Hill, is a set- tlement of pretty homes, and, from its location, a grand and ever-changing panorama of the valley of the Passaic spreads out before the eyes. On account of the scenery from Long Hill, this locality has become popular. MADISON Altitude, ,'U5ft. 25.58 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 70 cts.; Excursion Ticket, $1.10. This enterprising town has for the past three years been prospering under a bor- ough government. It has a Mayor and Town Council at the head of its affairs ; it also possesses excellent water and electric light systems, and all the comforts of a large city are available. Building is very active and promises so to continue. Madison rejoices in four churches and the Webb Memorial Chapel, an imposing edifice, built and presented to the town by James A. Webb, Esq., a prominent and enterprising citizen. This place has been known as a health resort for a long time, and on that account, may well be recommended. It is noted for the number of its elegant resi- dences, many of which are surrounded by large estates. Mr. H. McK. Twombley has laid out, at an enormous cost, over 200 acres as a park, and the work will r^ult in one of tlie finest estates in New Jersey. The town itself is in a valley, and on both sides of the long sloping hills pretty homes are located. The view from these hills across the Passaic Valley is one of the features that captivates the seekers of suburban homes. Drew Theological Seminary, in the immediate vicinity, is well known and is vis- ited by persons from all parts. Good roads and picturesque drives make Madison a pleasant resort for city people during the summer months.

DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 33 Photo, by H- A. Henckel, N. Y. AWAITING TRAIN, MORRISTOWN STATION. MORRISTOWN, Altitude, 326ft. 29.73 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 80 cts.; Excursion ticket $1.25. This old town, so prominently identified with the history of the Revolutionary War, scarcely calls for any introduction. Its fame was established when it was first chosen by Washington as the headquar- ters of the Continental Army, and the associations of those stirring times of our nation's history are still cherished by the descendants of many of the gallant soldiers who took up arms and fought for their independence under the leadership of General Washington. Not the pages of history alone point to Washington's association with Morristown, for his headquarters, situated on an eminence in the northern part of the city, have- been preserved, and since they came into the possession of the State, more land which has been laid out in beautiful grassy lawns, and broad paths skirted by shade trees has been reserved about them. Cannon that have, from time to time, been used in defence of the nation, and which were individually presented, are mounted and frown threaten- ingly around the quaint old building. The national emblem is spread to the breeze daily, not only to indicate the spot, but to show that the patriotism of our fathers is still ablaze in the breasts of their descendants. To quote from the address of Hon. Theodore F. Randolph, on opening of this building to the public, July 4, 1875 : " During the summer of 1873, this property, so long and widely known as the old headquarters of Washington, was offered for sale. A few gentlemen concluded to purchase it, and having done so, formed a society known as the Washington Society of New Jersey, the principal object of which is to perpetuate this house with its great historic associations, and to gather within these walls so large and interesting a museum of articles connected with the Revolutionary and other history of the Colo- nies, that this old mansion, rendered immortal by the name of Washington, shall WASHINGTON'S HEADQUARTERS, MORRISTOWN, N. J. DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 35 become a Mecca towards which all Americans will turn their steps and obtain, as from a fountain, inspiration to patriotic life and purpose. Under this roof have been gath- •ered more characters known to the military history of the War of the Revolution than under any other roof in America — a fact not generally known. Here, the elegant and brilliant Alexander Hamilton lived during the long winter of 1779, and here he met and courted the lady he afterwards married, the daughter of General Schuyler. Here, too, were Green, the splendid fighting Quaker, as he was, and the great artillery oflficer Knox, the noble L,a Fayette, the stern Steuben, the polished Kosciusko, the brave Schuyler, gallant Light Horse Harry Lee, old Israel Putnam, mad Anthony "Wayne, and that brave soldier, but rank traitor Benedict Arnold. Here, too, from time to time, gathered prominent members of the Continental Congress and statesmen of that day. This dwelling was also for many months, the home of Martha, the wife of George Washington. Within these rooms, with quiet dignity and grace, she received her husband's guests. Never idle, she set a constant example of thrift and industry. In front of this house, in yonder meadow, lay encamped Washington's body guard — originally a selected troop of about one hundred Virginians. Day and night they kept watch and guard over these headquarters and the precious lives it contained. Many were the plans, and several were the attempts by the enemy to pierce to this old house and to the powder-mill in its rear, and thus at one blow ■destroy all hope of successful revolution. Had this house been once successfully attacked, and its inmates taken, America's Revolution would, in all probability, have been known to history as America's Rebellion. But, among these hills of Morris no Briton's foot ever trod in Revolutionary times save as a prisoner." Fort Nonsense, where Washington's guns were planted, is at the summit of the Wghest hill in town. There a survey of the valley and surrounding country was made and a careful watch was kept for the appearance of the enemy. The site of the old fort is marked by a slab bearing a suitable inscription. Morristown may justly claim not to have rested solely on its past record. It now has a population of over 12,000 and is governed by a Mayor and Common Council. Every convenience that other cities afford is here available. The avenues are broad, delightfully shaded, and well maintained. Some of the most magnificent residences in the country are located here, and they may be found in all parts of the city, on the neighboring hills, and in the suburbs. This entire region is a sanitarium, and no healthier spot can be found. The population is made up largely of wealthy New Yorkers, and in summer it is the most sought-after resort within the same distance of New York. Manufacturing is not permitted within the city limits. The Green is a public park occupying an entire square. It is shaded by stately elms, and is divided into fine walks. An elegant soldiers' monument stands on the west side of the Green. The drives for miles around are most beautiful. Pocahontas Lake is a pretty sheet of water within the city limits, and contains bass and pickerel. It affords good sport for the angler, and the catches are often large. Speedwell Lake is another pretty spot, situated about a mile outside of the city toward Morris plains, and offers inducements to fishermen and others who vdsh to try their skill. Mendham is seven miles from Morristown, and trains of Rockaway Valley Rail- way connect at Morristown for Mendham, White House and intermediate points. It has the distinction of being located in the heart of the mountains, and there is scarcely a cooler or more bracing spot in all New Jersey. It is renowned for its health-giving qualities, and also forthe long extended view over valley and lower mountain. The place is nothing but an old-fashioned village, filled with quaint houses, honest people, fertile farms and perpetual happiness. In the warmer months it is filled with summer WASHINGTON'S HEADQUARTERS, MORRISTOWN, N. J. DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 37 boarders, and its attractions are almost without limit. Connection here also for Whippany via Whippany River Railroad. MORRIS PLAINS, Altitude, hOS ft. 32.01 miles from New York; Single ticket, gocts.; Excursion ticket, $1.35. Many people regard Morris Plains as being the most beautiful spot along this line. It derives its name from the fact that the town is built on a high plateau, sur- rotmded on the north and west bj' mountains. Summer here is delightful, on account ■of the breeze having a clear sweep across the plain. The soil is sandy, and within an hour after a heavy shower is very often as dry as though there had been no rainfall. For this reason the entire section is remarkably healthful. The roads are splendidly kept and driving is a luxury. A mile back from the station is the imposing building of the State Hospital for the insane. Morris Plains is composed nearly entirely of fine buildings, owned and occupied by well-to-do citizens. There is a small lake within the village limits, where boating and fishing can be enjoyed. MOUNT TABOR, Altitude. 531 ft. 35.66 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.00 ; Excursion ticket, $1.40. Mount Tabor has become famous on account of the annual gathering of the Meth- odists, who hold their camp meeting exercises here, and enjoy a quiet sociable time in accord with their religious precepts. It is one of a number of picturesque peaks that jut out from the Blue Ridge Mountains. The mountain slope is dotted here and there with pretty cottages owned by members of the Methodist faith, and occupied by them nearly all summer. Life here is calm and enjoyable, and the place is restricted against all nuisances and disorder. DENVILLE, Altitude, 520 ft. 36.33 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.00; Excursion ticket, $1.50.

A good deal of life is to be found in this bustling little village of manufacturing industries. Rockaway is prettily situated, partly in a valley and partly on a hillside. The Rockaway River flows through it, lending to the picturesqueness of the place. The village boasts several good stores, and in summer is a favorite vacation resort. The attention of the reader is now directed to the Boonton Branch, which meets the Morris and Essex division at Dover, the next station beyond Rockaway, where both lines continue westward as one.

PATERSOK Altitude, ISS ft. 14.64 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 50 cts.; Excursion ticket, 70 cts. Paterson is called the " Lyons of America," on account of its immense silk indus- tries. It is one of the largest cities in New Jersey, and in the importance of its indus- tries, principal among which is the building of locomotives, probably ranks second. The Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad runs along the western section of the city, and plays an important part in its commercial welfare. A tour of the man- ufactories is not only interesting but instructive. The high falls of the Passaic, famous throughout the country, are also worth}- of a visit on account of the great beauty of Nature's handiwork. WEST PATERSON, Altitude, 1S8 ft. 15.83 miles from New York ; Single ticket, 50 cts.; Excursion ticket, 70 cts. A suburb of Paterson, just outside the city limits.

Here all the comforts of countr}^ life await the stranger, and the fertile farms that dot the valley suppl_y vegetables, milk and eggs in abundance. Little Falls turns out a great amount of carpeting every year, the falls here being the attraction for the manufacturer. The angler, too, can enjoy himself, and if fortune favors, may find good luck in casting his line in the Passaic, for at this point black bass fishing is excellent. The angling grounds are above the falls. MOUNTAIN VIEW, Altitude, 175 ft. 20.82 miles from New York ; Single ticket 70 cts.; Excursion ticket, 90 cts. The tjame of this spot originates from the fact that it is in full view of the Blue Ridge mountains. It is a farming country whose chief attraction is pure air, beauti- ful scenery and good drives.

These three villages have the same character as Mountain View, and are all desirable places in which to spend the stimmer months. BOONTOK Altitude, hll ft. 29.61 miles from New York ; Single ticket, So cts.; Excursion ticket, $1.25. Boonton is among the oldest towns in the State. It is beautifully situated on a mountain side, and commands a magnificent view extending over 15 miles across the Passaic Valley. There is a grandeur about the Rockaway River as it flows down the mountain through the town and then breaks into foaming cascades as it tumbles along the ravine, winding in many directions descending the valley. The Rockaway River at Boonton affords wild views that are seldom equalled within the limits of civilization. Boonton was at one time a great iron manufacturing center, but of late years this industry has fallen into decay. As a place of residence it is superb, the society is good, the surroundings are salubrious, and the air is permeated with the odor of pine from the mountains. As a summer resort, this town is too well known to need recommendation, and the city people who spend the hot months here do not seem to be able to get back soon enough. DenvillE, where the Boonton Branch tracks cross the M. & E. Division, is 35 miles from New York by this line. After a run of four miles around the base of a liigh mountain, both lines meet at DOVER. Altitude, 573 ft. 41.66 miles from New York ; Single ticket, |i.io ; Excursion ticket, $1.75. On entering Dover, one finds a busy center surrounded by high hills and delight- ful scenery. The large shops of the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western are located here, and a small army of men are kept at work the year round building new cars and repairing the old. Several other thriving manufacturing industries are also liere. Dover is a great mining center, the adjacent mountains being filled with a fine ■deposit of iron. The U. S. Government powder works are located at Picatinny, and are one of the attractions to visitors. The city has fine schools, churches of all denominations, and an opera house. The mountain drives in this section are peculiarly inviting. The Rockaway River and Morris Canal both flow through the city. In summer, Dover is one of the liveliest cities in New Jersey. PORT ORAM, Altitude, 6U2 ft. 43.64 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.15 ; Excursion ticket, |i.8o. A quiet little farming hamlet which derived its name from being a station on the Morris Canal. After leaving Port Oram the Chester Branch runs eleven miles westward through a country famous for its rugged mountain peaks, green valleys and brisk streams. This entire section of Morris County ranks among the most healthful portion of New Jersey. There is no limit to the pastoral beauty of the scenery north, and the advan- tages Port Oram has for vacation enjoyment are ntimerous. The fertile farms offer •every inducement to lovers of rest and quiet, and the hotels and boarding-houses cater especially for city boarders. In fact, all of the villages overflow with city 42 DRLAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. people during the sunnner months. The water is pure and of good quaUty, the drives delightful, and the air remarkably bracing.

ARLINGTON, Altitude, 995 ft. 46.36 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.25 ; Excursion ticket, J1.95. Mount Arlington is the station from which Lake Hopatcong is reached by wagon or stage, and was established by enterprising citizens of Lake Hopatcong as a con- venience in reaching trains. From this station to Lake Hopatcong Country Club, formerl)' the Hotel Breslin, an electric railway will be run. LAKE HOPATCONG STATION Altitude, 926 ft. 4S.97 miles from New York ; Single ticket, I1.30 ; Excursion ticket, $2.05. On alighting from the train the prospective sojourner expects to have his craving for a glimpse at this silver pool in the mountains satisfied at once. But in this he is mistaken. Instead, a little steamboat of the Lake Hopatcong Steamboat Co. awaits him at the landing, adjoining the station on the Morris Canal, and runs by a rather unusual and interesting route to all important points on the lake to deliver passengers. One of the novelties of the trip is a pleasant ride of a mile up the canal to the lock. On reaching the latter point the boat is " locked in " and raised up several feet, and when the surface is reached. Lake Hopatcong, with its clear green water, irregular shores and numerous rock-bound, wooded islands, presents itself with such suddenness as to completely enrapture all who are contemplating a loiter of more or less lengthy duration on its sloping shores. And at the Lake Landing, one hundred and fifty feet north of the station, are also other steamers — the latter belonging to- the Hopatcong Steamboat Company — which carry passengers to all points on the Lake. The boats of the Hopatcong Line are comfortably appointed side-wheelers, and at the present comprise the "Hopatcong," the " Musconetcong, " and a steam launch, the " Nariticong." In addition to these, a new steamer has been launched. DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 43 The lake itself is partly located in Morris and partly in Sussex county. " Its alti- tude is 1,027 f^et above the sea level, and 36 feet above the Delaware River, ''35 miles westward. The water, which rises from crystal springs, is transparently green, very deep,- and teems with game fish. Black bass and pickerel of enormous size_are caught every season, and catfish of good weight are also taken. Hopatcong is the rendezvous of expert fishermen and fisherwomen, and it is the rare sport thus provided that attracts many an angler here each season. Howard P. Frothingham, Esq., Mayor of the borough of Mount Arlington, himself an enthusiastic fisherman, is the fish warden for Lake Hopatcong. He enjoys his office, because, as a true sportsman, he likes to see game fish protected. Woe be to those caught by him fishing out of season, or in season, for that matter, using nets, fikes or any other unlawful means of trapping the Photo by H. A. Heiickel, N. Y. APPROACHING liAKE HOPATCONG, N. J. fish. Persistent effort on his part has driven these scalawags out of his jurisdiction so that legitimate fishermen who go to Hopatcong can count on having good sport, and happy catches for their trouble. In this limited space it would be impossible to describe or do justice to the famed beauties of this lake. It so closely resembles L,ake George that it is frequently alluded to as the " Lake George of New Jersey." This allusion is justified, although Lake George is so much larger as to make the comparison hardly fair. Lake Hwpat- cong (1,027 feet above sea level), however, has an advantage of 685 feet in altitude over its rival, and in the beauty of its scenery its equality is unquestioned. Indian tradition is closely associated with both lakes, although Hopatcong never had a Cooper to weave that subtle charm about it that will alwa)'s cling to the " Hor- icon," as.a result of the ingeniously constructed plots and charming description of Central New York given by the famous writer of "The Leather Stocking Tales." 44 DELAWARE, LACKAAVANNA & WESTERN «. R. There is such a variety to the everchanging scenery of Lake Hopatcong, or " Hopachung, " as the red men called it when they settled on its shores. When the -water is ruffled bj' the slightest breeze, its depth appears to lessen, and at sunset when the surface becomes mirror like, the shadows of the mountain seem to sink fathoms in its sparkling depths. About the middle of June the influx of visitors connnences, and from that time until September one round of gaity succeeds another. The hotels and boarding-houses •are full, the lake becomes dotted here and there with pleasure craft of all descriptions, from the frail canoe with sail and paddle to the costly steam launches. The Lake Hopatcong Country Club, formerly the Hotel Breslin, at Mt. Arlington, will be the abode of fashion and culture. The grounds surrounding it are terraced, and hand- somely laid out with blossoming shrubs and flowers. The view from the long piazza •over the lake compri-ses many pretty patches of scenery. For camping out this place excels all others. The wooded shores offer the finest kind of seclusion ; the bathing is good, and fishing adds materially to the pleasures of camp life. Not the least interesting feature of an evening on the lake is to watch the ■camp fires gleaming here and there along the opposite shores, and listen, to the^ frequent camp cries of " rival " parties blending with s(5ng and accompaniment. The little hamlet of Mount Arlington is a collection of neat cottages bordering on the lake, and on the hill above it. One of these, the cottage of Miss Lotta Crab- tree, the actress, deserves particular mention, because its interior is not only gorge- ous in its appointment, but in the extent of its artistic arrangements, it has been praised by every connoisseur in decorative art The walks and rambles are as numerous as they are beautiful, and while out on a tramp anyone fond of exercise is likely to run across an extraordinary number of people, and wonder whence these folks came. Anyhow, every one there is out for pleasure or rest and each makes the best of his opportunity. A peculiar freak of nature here is Floating Island, at the southern extremity of the lake near Shippenport. The island never appears over one foot above the surface ■of the water, and is covered with tamarack, spruce and wild flowers of a curious growth in great variety. Raccoon Island is on the eastern boundary of Henderson's Cove and is covered with a heavy growth of timber. From the fact that human bones have been unearthed on the island, it is supposed that the Indians buried their dead there. Halsey Island, opposite Nolan's Point, is artificial. Many years ago the Canal Company, with proper authority, flooded the lake and this caused the water to rise to a sufficient height to flood part of the main land peninsula, thus forming several islands, of which this is the largest. The River Styx, an arm of the lake that empties into it back of the moyntain, is quieter than any place around. It is a romantic spot, and on account of the solitude that prevails is a favorite abode for such birds as herons, which stand in the water on one leg, heedless of all that surrounds them. Henderson's Cove is probably the most beautiful spot on the lake ; it is made so by the rugged bluffs that overhang it, which are covered by a hardy growth of oak and hemlock. Trips by boat to the cove are one of the fascinating pleasures of life here. The lake finds its outlet by the Musconetcong River, which flows in an irregular •course and empties into the Delaware 40 miles distant. At times the Canal Company utilizes the water as a means for feeding the Canal, and at such times the lake surface recedes two feet or more. DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R.

Stanhope has become known, not on account of its iron-smelting industries, but by reason of its general thrift. It has several churches and schools ; has stores of all kinds and rejoices in one weekly paper. Passengers alight here to be staged through the mountains to BUDD'S LAKE, Altitude, 933 ft. Distance from Stanhope, 3 miles. '• Restless and sparkling, its silvery sheen, Reflects the bold hills in a setting of green. " This pretty sheet of water, almost circular in shape, boasts of being one of the most delightful lakes near New York. It is the resort of many people who love to enjoy the summer season surrounded by pleasant associates in an atmosphere of pure, health-giving air. The beauties of Budd's Lake are always enjoyable, and there is no monotony in a sojourn there. The man who likes fishing, here may gratify his whim by dropping in his line and hauling out vigorous black bass or pickerel. Both these voracious varieties are ready to meet the angler half-way and take the alluring bait. The wonderful stillness of the water, especially at evening, attracts the holiday maker, and boating is much indulged in. The conventional 'hammock can find no more de- lightful place to swing in than above the rufiled wavelets, as, under the influence of a cool morning breeze, they ripple on the pebbly shore. Everybody comes here in happy expectancy, and unless hypercritical and difficult to please, they are not disap- pointed, except, perhaps, at the too short summer which gives way to breezy autumn when the inevitable " good-bye " to the mountains has to bespoken.

He may have enjoj-ed himself thoroughly and been fortunate with rod or gun, but the inducement of bagging a few ducks from the lake, where they congregate every fall, often proves an attraction too strong to be resisted. WATERLOO. Altitude, 716ft. 54.56 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $1.50 ; Excursion ticket. ^2.25. Here, at the gateway of the rugged hills of Sussex County, begins the Sus.sex Railroad. The road is 26 miles long, and traverses a very picturesque country. It is wild, full of little lakes, ponds and silvery streams, that furnish excellent fishing. Photo, by H. C. Pjie, N. Y. ON THE SUSSEX BRANCH. On account of the mountainous character of the neighborhood, game of all sorts abounds. The partridge is frequently seen along the highways, and, during the fall — '• Up from the stubble gets the quail ^■ I hear the partridge drumming." Bears, too, are not strangers in Sussex, and scarcely a season goes bj^ that some one does not have to recount the destruction of one or more of these furr}- creatures. The summer sojourner, of course, is not as eager to kill bears as to roam about at will and avoid them. There is no danger, however, of meeting bruin in the summer months, as it is only in winter that he ventures within the bounds of civilization to forage for his provisions, and when satisfied with a pig or two, he returns quietl}^ to his lair. As there are innumerable farms and plenty of good hotels and boarding-houses, the region through which the Sussex Railroad runs is particularly inviting to summer vacationists. In fact, any person who appreciates a mountain sitmmer, with pleasant surroundings, can make no mistake in giving any of the places mentioned a season's trial. On leaving Waterloo, the first station is DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 49 cANDOVER, Altitude, 635 ft. 61.06 miles from New York ; Single ticket, I1.75 ; Excursion ticket, I2.65. Is a picturesque village of about 600 population, at an altitude of 650 to 763 ft. Among the mountains and lakes, along the line of the Sussex Branch of the Lacka- wanna, at junction of the Lehigh and Hudson Railroad, 60 miles from New York City. It is noted for its neatness, healthfulness and grand scenery. From Hill-top, five minutes walk from depot, a view surpassed by none in the State of New Jersey, over- looking the Blue Mountains for 55 miles, including Jennie Jump, Delaware Water Gap, Culver's Gap, High Point, as well as Sparta, Panther and AUamuchy Mountains. Among the 44 lakes that surround the village in a radius of eight miles are Lake Hopatcong, Swartswood, Panther, Cranberry, Auble, Stag, Turtle, Roseville, Bear, White, Slater, Gardner; Iliff, Goodale and Burkmire, all of which afford excellent bass and pickerel fishing, several of the above being near the village. The drives in all directions are exceedingly attractive. The lakes and mountains remind one of Switzerland. The Methodist church is a model, the Presbyterian very neat.

Newton, the county seat of Sussex, is considered one of the prettiest, as well as most prosperous, towns in North Jersey. The altitude ranges from 580 to 800 feet above mean tide at New York. The population is about 3,500, and the locality one of the healthiest in the State. The town has two shoe factories, employing over 500 persons, besides other manufactories. Its streets are lighted by arc electric lights, and water has been introduced into the town. Gas is also at command for lighting and heating. The principal streets are macadamized, and the sidewalks are flag and granolithic. As the nights are invariably cool, the daily range of 15° to 25° brings refreshing sleep, and mosquitoes are rarely seen. It has two newspapers, which are known far and wide as compendiums of local news. With prompt and convenient train service, there is no more desirable place in the Jersey Highlands. Business men traveling between town and city are favored by trips in the cool of the da'y, the aver- age running time being two hours, and on some trains without change of cars. New York morning newspapers reach the town at 8:30 a. m. The drives in the neighbor- hood are noted for their beauty, and the proximity to Swartswood, Culvers, Hopat- cong, and other lakes, renders a summer residence a matter of comfort as well as pleasure. There is a Sunday train to and from New York. LAFAYETTE, Altitude, 65ltft. 70.56 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $2.05 ; Excursion ticket, $3.25.

This is one of the oldest towns in New Jersey. It is situated in the midst of pleasant surroundings, and is an enterprising village of pretty homes and well shaded streets. It has a Mayor and Council and its municipal government is good. The Hackettstown Collegiate Institute, known throughout the country as a prominent seat of learning, is situated here. During the summer season the town is very active on account of the influx of the city people who come to obtain recreation and whole- some air. Schooley^s cMouniain, Like an immense forest, lying some distance back from the town, is Schooley's Mountain, a resort almost too well known to require detailed description. The mountain when viewed from a distance, resembles a long plateau, so even is its sum- mit, and it is covered with a rich growth of forest trees. Nature has been so unusually kind to this romantic spot that many wealthy gentlemen have selected it as their summer home. Among these are Alfred Sully, Esq. , the well-known railroad magnate, and Mr. E. D, Stokes. The Sully abode is palatial in its appointments, and the grounds are laid out in bright flower beds, arbors and shrubbery. Mr. Sully takes JUNCTION OF MAIN LINE AND M. & E. DIVISION AT WASHINGTON, N.

The air on the mountain is cool and bracing and is favorable for all pulmonary affections and asthma. There are no mosquitoes here, and slumber at night should always be between a pair of wann blankets. The Heath House and " The Dorincourt " are the most prominent summer hotels on the mountain.

This is the most important city in Warren County and is noted for the number of its manufactories, principal among which are the piano and organ industries. The town is located at the base of Pohatcong Mountain and the valley is one of wonderful beauty and fertility. The city is noted for its fine hotels and summer boarding houses and for that reason is well patronized by out-of-town folks.

S3. 62 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $2.05 ; Excursion ticket, $3.00. This city, one of the largest in the State and an important railroad centre, is the last in New Jersey on the line of this road. It is situated on the Delaware River. In mentioning Phillipsburg it is sufficient to indorse it as a city where can be had all conveniences other places of its size afford. The manufacturing industries are import- ant and represent vast wealth. But Phillipsburg is most important as a railroad centre. EASTON, PA, Altitude, 218 ft. 84.24 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $2.10 ; Excursion ticket, $3.00. Easton is situated just across the Delaware River from Phillipsburg, and is con- nected with it by a long bridge. This city, being one of the largest in Pennsylvania, needs no description here ; in limited space justice cotild not be accorded, it. This is the seat of Lafayette College. Returning again to the main line, which continues westward from Washington, the first station beyond is OXFORD FURNACE, Altitude, /,36 ft. 74.39 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $2.05 : Special ticket. $1.85 ; Excursion ticket, $3.05. If this little town were referred to as a small edition of Sheffield, it should not be considered as inappropriate. The iron industry is all that is recognized here. The Oxford Steel and Iron Company controls the immense plant that turns out nails famous the country over. Nearly all the inhabitants depend on this industry for a living. The town was founded by a Scranton family, and its great success is prin- DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 53 cipally due to their energy. Blairstown, the home of the Hon. John I. Blair, one of New Jersey's iron kings, is within a few miles of here, and is well worth a visit. BRIDGEVILLE, Altitude, 1,86 ft. 78.39 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $2.15 ; Special ticket, $1.95 ; Excursion ticket, I3.20. Just across the little Pequest River, connected by a three-arch stone viaduct bridge, is this quiet town. The attraction here is fishing, and the waters that furnish it are the Pequest River, Beaver Brook, and several small ponds. Among the natural attractions is Jenny Jump Mountain, close by. The region hereabouts is one of de- lightful simplicity, and profitable farming is largely conducted. MAXLNKA CIIU.NK, X. J.— J UNCTION OF BELVIDEHE IIIVISIOX I'EXXS V1,\AN lA H. li.

The place is small, and agricultural pursuits are the principal industry. DELAWARE, Altitude 290 ft. 82.64 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $2.25 ; Special ticket, $2.05; Excursion ticket, $3.40. Delaware is located among the hills of northern New Jersey, and on the banks of the Delaware River. The surrounding cotuitry is hilly, almost mountainous. Numer- ous roads lead to places of varied interest, affording delightful drives. Several pic- turesque and romantic spots in the vicinity invite the rambler, while the river is a 54 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. source of entertainment for the boatman and fisherman. The Gap, and other attrac- tions within easy reach, are the object of frequent picnics and excursions during the season. In summer the population generally doubles. A number of good boarding- houses are located in the vicinity, and Delaware is quite a popular summer resort. PORTLAND, FA, Altitude, 292ft.

Of all the resorts along the line of the Lackawanna, none is more strikingly- beautiful than this great handiwork of Nature. Its praises have been sung for gene- rations, and one never wearies of them. From the time that the Redskin ruled' the domain, the popularity of this grand chasm through the mountains has been estab- lished, and each year the demand for hotel accommodations continues to increase. There is a peculiar rugged picturesqueness about the scenery that attracts the atten- tion of the observer, and holds it until it is so firmly imprinted on the mind as never to be forgotten. Residents love to tarry by the clear water of the grand old Dela- ware, and enjoy the pleasures of boating and fishing, and the transient visitor is will- ing to journey any distance, if it is only to spend a day here. Many excursions are run to Water Gap from different points during the summer months, and so popular have these become that they are booked for months in advance at the Company's pas- senger department office. A critical review of this region, and the Delaware River, cannot fail to be of in- terest to the readers. The Delaware River rises 200 miles northward, in two lateral branches flowing from the western slope of the Catskill Mountains, 2,000 feet above the sea level. The western branch passes through a lake near its sour^ie, retaining, strange to say, its quaint aboriginal name " Utsayantha." This is described as a circular sheet of trans- parent water covering an area of 70 acres and having an elevation of 1,888 feet; a mirror of beauty in the wooded wilderness, so secluded that few, save the red men, have ever gazed upon its serene solitude. In its course, the river hugs the base of the grand old mountains, older in date of upheaval than the snow-clad "Alps," which once formed a barrier to its passage, and rolled back the flood of waters, submerging for a long time the lesser hills and swelling plains that now, clad in verdure, adorn its borders. The character of the rocks in this portion of the Blue Ridge is that of gray and red sandstone and conglomerates, containing white quartz pebbles of large size. The escarjjment at the point of dislodgment is more bold on the New Jersey portion of the mountain, the means of the angle for the entire elevation of 1,600 feet, being about 70 degrees, while projecting cliffs, as seen from the gorge, exhibit sections of perpen- dicular descent. On the Pennsylvania mountain the general slope from the summit to the river is less precipitous ; a mass of talus having been detached from the crest by the frost of winter, and, pouring like lava down its sides, has covered the surface to the depth of many feet, concealing the rugged projections that characterize the face of the opposite mountain. DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 55 From both the summits — Mount Tammany in New Jersey and Mount Minsi in Pennsylvania — views of great extent and beauty are obtained, but it is difficult to do them justice by mere description ; they must be seen to be fully appreciated. One overlooks, tothe south, a scene of vast breadth, comprising mountains and hills, villages and farmhouses, cultivated fields, groves of woodland and primitive forests — the river on its sinuous journey filling up the picture. It was upon the summit of Minsi, that, over a quarter of a century ago, a romantic young lady lost her way, and 56 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. 'r. was exposed for a greater part of a night on the ledge of a cliflF, to which she had fallen, and from which she was rescued with much difficulty. On the way to Mount Minsi to the settled portion of the Gap, a fine view is obtained from Prospect Rock.— This bare platform, though much below the summit, enables the visitor to enjoy one of the finest pieces of scenery on the Delaware. The view up the river extends beyond the islands to the distant hills and mountains, through DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R.

Near by is The Lover's IvEap.— This is the artist's favorite spot and is made memorable as the scene where the Indian Princess "Wi- nona" and her lover took their fatal step. Caldeno Creek. — This is a noted spot. It has its rise high up the side of Mount Minsi. Dash- ing and foaming in its descent, it flows at length into the^x-alley, and after gladdening the inmates of several farm houses, changes its course and runs close by the ruins of an old saw mill, which at one time it made busy as the machinery was put in motion by the splashing of the water over a big wheel. From the old mill the stream flows across a green meadow and loses itself in an entanglement of forest, from which it again merges at Moss Cataract, dashes over its mossy bed, fills Diana's bath afresh, gives a DELAWARE, LACKAAVANNA & WESTERN R. R. 59 leap over the falls of its ovvn' name and hastens on to lose its identity in the broad waters of the Delaware. Table Rock and Cooper's Cliff. — Both are situated on an extended rocky platform of about 300 feet in elevation, overlooking the river and the cultivated hills in the distance. The confused mixture of forest and hills, and the cultivated land below the cliff on which one stands, form a beautiful foreground to the finely devel- oped proportions of the gorge in the distance. Sunset Hill rises only a few rods to the northeast of the apparently undisturbed stratification of Table Rock, and is a confused, disjointed, irregular mass of rock from base to apex. We have given a tolerably fair idea of the general character of the scenery and views of Water Gap, but its attractions, if they begin, certainly do not end there. There are numerous walks besides those we have named, and drives which we have not mentioned at all — long drives to the beautiful falls of Winona and Bushkill, and short drives to romantic places with commonplace names: Fox Hill, the Knob, Lake of the Mountain and a dozen others. Stroudsburg is but four miles distant. STROUDSBURG AND EAST STROUDSBURG, PA. 94.S9 miles fromNew York ; Single ticket, fz.yo ; Special ticket $2.50 ; E;xcursion ticket, $3.85. Altitude, hOO ft. These two towns are delight- fully situated on Brodhead's Creek, the former being the county seat of Monroe. They have a combined population of 5,000 inhabitants, and are noted for their beauty and the magnifi- cent scenery surrounding them. For more than half a century people have been attracted to this section on account of its wild grandeur, its remarkable heahhfulness, and its clearness and dryness of air. The State Normal School of the fourth Pennsylvania is located at East Stroudsburg; it is thoroughly equipped and is one of the noted educational institutions of the state. George P. Bible, A. M., is principal. The fol- lowing are among the wideh known places of interest near these two towns: Delaware Water Gap, Highland Dell, The Sanitarium, Silver Lake, Buttermilk Falls, Sambo Falls, sTUfU'nsmnf; statkix. 60 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN K.

FOREST PARK, BUSHKILL, PIKK COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA. 15 miles from Stroudsburg. It comprises about sixteen thousand acres of land, diversified by mountain and valley, lakes and streams. Its mountain streams, fed by bubbling springs, are the lurliing places of countless trout, and the lakes are the abiding places of the gamy black bass and the sun-loving perch. In the forest, much of which is in primeval state, deer and bear, partridge and pheasant, grouse, quail, woodcock, foxes, rabbits and squirrel abound. SPRAGUEVILLE, Altitude. 52U ft. 99.14 miles from New Y'ork ; Single ticket, $2.85; Special ticket, $2 65; Excursion ticket, $4. 05. _ Spragueville is an attractive village surrounded by many hills, which give it a picturesque appearance. It is the summer home of several wealthy persons whose residences are costly and beautiful. Like its larger neighbor, Stroudsburg, it is located on Brodhead's Creek, which at this point is decidedly pretty, and is famous for the fine trout fishing it affords. The Analomink streams, both celebrated for their trout, are near the village. The drives are magnificent for miles around and pleasure afforded by them coupled with riding and walking keep tourists busy enjoy- ing themselves. HENRYVILLE. MONROE CO., PA. Altitude, 78Uft. 102.64 miles from New Y^ork ; Single ticket, $2.95; Special ticket, $2.75; Excursion ticket, $4.20. If you were anxious to spend all day Saturday catching fine brook trout— beauties that run up to a pound and three-quarters — you could not do better than take the short trip on the D., L. & W. necessary to reach Henry ville, a little town prettily situated on a mountain side. At the station you will find a spanking team of farm horses and a good springy buckboard ready to take all comers over the mountain to Parkside. Here you are surrounded by some of the most prolific brook trout streams in America — East and West branch, Brodhead, Cranberry, Heller, Paradise and Devil's Hole — all famous. Parkside, on the banks of the Analomink, is a beautiful little rural retreat, not more than three hour's ride from New York. ^The Park House is situated in the centre of beautifully laid out grounds, with the river at one side and the mountains on the other. The altitude of the place gives it perfect free- dom from mosquitoes and malaria, and in summer the temperature is delightfully cool. The ride over the hills from the stati-^n will furnish an appetite alone worth the trip. And the food ! Food that is sweet and fresh, food that is free of a city smell, food that has a natural ring to it — butter, cream, eggs, milk, vegetables, and all sorts of things, right from the farm. Lounge about the farm Friday evening, smoke your pipes or cigars and listen to the yarns about the big fish you will have to battle with in the morning. When you retire for the night sleep will not be difficult to woo, and you can peaceftilly close your eyes with the cheering knowledge that a refreshing breakfast will be ready when you open them again. After that go forth to flail the DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 61 wooded streams, and your basket will be heavy with fine-sized fish on your return. Sunday resting about the farm, eating delicious fruit, and breathing the invigorating mountain air until night falls again, will fill the day with restful memories. The early morning train may be taken on Monday, and — the city reached all too soon. The points of interest within easy riding or driving distance are the Water Gap, Red Rock Glen, Prospect Ledge, Silver Cascade, Pocono Summit, Point Lookout and one or two others of less fame. CRESCO, Altitude, 1,203 ft. 108.14 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $3.15; Special ticket, $2. 95; Excursion ticket, $4.45. Cresco is situated in the highlands of Monroe County close to the Delaware River. It can be safely said that the forests and streams about here give more pleas- ure than the average sportsman can find time to enjoy. A region of woodland and water, it attracts them every season, and has attained for itself a well deserved repu- tation. WISCASSET POOL, MOUNT POCONO. MOUNT POCONO, Altitude, l,S2hft. 1 14. 14 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $3.35 ; Special ticket, $3.15 ; Excursion ticket, $4.65. The Pocono Mountains cross the northeastern counties of Pennsylvania and are spurs of the same great chain that crosses the Atlantic section from the Catskills in New York to the Black Mountains in North Carolina. The extensive panoramic view that spreads before one's gaze emphasizes the fact that Mount Pocono is very nearly the highest point of the mountains. In the fore- ground, the few clearings give a touch of cultivation ; further down is the wood- covered valley, and beyond, the pine-clad hills roll back, dotted here and there by a • farm house or a clearing, the horizon bounded by the long line of the Blue Ridge, standing out like a huge rampart. A little to the right, Pocono Knob raises its rock- bound summit two thousand, six hundred feet above the level of the sea. On the left, through the famous Delaware Water Gap are seen the hills and mountains of 62 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. New Jersey. Over all, the moving cloud shades cast their ever changing tinge of light and shade. The atmosphere is wonderfully dry, pure and pine-laden, far more so than at an equal altitude along the main Alleghaney Range. The many persons to whom mountain breezes are as a sparkling cordial, wall find here on the spurs of the Pocono all that need requires or fancy seeks. The thermometer registers on an average from ten to fifteen degrees lower than in the cities of New York and Philadelphia. The nights are cool and the air soft and balmy. There are no mosquitoes. The climate here is almost a specific for malarial TRINITY CHURCH, MOUNT POCONO, PA. diseases, and can be equally recommended to those suffering from debility, due to over-work, over-worr}' or other causes. The altitude is not so great as to increase nervous conditions, as is the case in higher altitudes. Here all throat and chest troubles are benefitted, and weak lungs are made strong. To hay-fever and asthmatic subjects this locality is a blessing. In a word, this Pocono region is second to no eastern locality for all of the requirements of a tj'pical health resort. As a proof of the dryness of the atmosphere, it is stated that as a rule the grass will be entirely free from dew on summer nights as late as eleven o'clock. The success of the Mount Pocono region as a health resort is fully assured, and there are now ample hotel and cottage accommo- dations within a few miles of the station. Some of the hotels have every modern convenience, steam-heat, enabling one to enjoy cool weather, the laurels and rhodo- dendrons of June, as well as the changing foliage of the invigorating autunni days, without the discomfort of an improperly the wiscasset. heated house ; rooms en suite, with private DELAWAKE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 63 bath, ample parlors, billiard rooms, porches, and all other modern conveniences There are numerous walks and drives, the roads being exceptionally good for a mountain district. The Indian Run drive, on the grounds of "The Wiscasset, " is especially romantic. The various streams in the neighborhood are easily accessible, and give good sport with the rod. There is also good hunting in the autumn. The popular games, notably golf, tennis and croquet, are amply provided for. The rhododendron and laurel should be mentioned as an especial at- traction in the spring and early summer. Late in June the rhododendron is in its glory, and the thousands of bushes covered with delicate blossoms, each as it breaks open its pink-shaded treasure of bloom, forming a perfect boquet in exquisite contrast to the wealth of dark green behind, makes a dainty picture, worthy the brush of the most ambitious painter. The water in this region is of the purest quality. Minerals being scarce, it naturally carries a minimum quantity of these substances, and there is no region that can boast of purer water than the Pocono Mountain region.

Bingham ton, the " Parlor City, " is too well known to require any detailed de- scription. It will be sufficient to say that it enjoys the distinction of being as beauti- ful a city as the Empire State can boast. The city has good water and the great manufacturing industries that have sprung up are due as much to this as to anything else. These industries first brought the railroad here, and so many lines centre in the city that it is fast taking rank among the great railroad centres of this country. The Chenango and Susquehanna Rivers flow through the city and give it a pleasing picturesqueness. Elegant residences and fine streets attract visitors, and a tour of the different districts meets with appreciation and approval. The grand castle-like building known as the Binghamton State Hospital stands on the summit of an eastern hill, commanding a fine view of the city and the pic- turesque Susquehanna Valley. The main and other buildings connected with it shelter 1,300 insane inmates and five hundred attendants. This is one of the model institutions of the State. A tribute to Binghamton's many advantages is the National Commercial Travelers' Home, the corner stone of which was laid October 9, 1894, with impressive ceremonies by the Grand Master of Masons of the State of New York, in the pres- ence of Governor Flower of New York, Gov. Pattison of Pennsylvania, their staffs, and many other distinguished persons. The Home stands upon a bluff commanding a view of the entire city, and will cost when completed over |i25,ooo. Ex-Mayor Geo. E. Green, of Binghamton, is President of the Commercial Travelers' Home Associa- tion of America. Other public institutions are the new Federal building, just completed at a cost of 1150,000; two Orphans' Homes, two Homes for Aged Women, an immense State armory, and two delightful parks. On account of its beauty Binghamton has been justly called "The Parlor City."

Situated on the shore of Lake Ontario, which appears like a mighty ocean, Oswego is the city of " Silver Gloss Starch," and as such it is known on account of the immense quan- tity of this commodity that it manufactures annually. The Oswego River divides the BCRTE POINT, OSWEGO, N. Y. city and affords elegant residence sites on both shores. The lake front is also a pop. ular place for private dwellings. Considering that the canal, lake and several lines of railroad furnish shipping facilities, it is not to be wondered at that Oswego is a prosperous and growing city. It has fine commercial institutions, banks, public buildings, and almost unlimited manufacturing industries. As a place of residence it has the appearance of an elegant and refined suburb, and the breezes from the lake render it delightfully cool and invigorating. In summer, the temperature, at the hottest, rarely exceeds 70°. The celebrated Deep Rock Spring is situated here, and, for the accommodation of tourists and invalids, a fine hotel has been erected near it. As far back as 1732 the Assembly at Albany appropriated moneys and appointed agents and interpreters to look after the sustaining of the trading post called Oswego^ D4 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. The French and English had severe engagements for its possession, as many as twenty thousand troops being massed here at one time. Some gallant attacks on the forts occurred, and many lives were sacrificed. In 1814 the British appeared off Oswego and, landing a land force, captured the city after a desperate struggle, tak- ing some of its prominent citizens prisoners of war, the last of whom have but recently l)een laid to rest. Fort Ontario, now garrisoned by a company of the 9th Infantry, stands in a commanding position on a high bank on the east side of the river. The view of Lake Ontario from the ramparts is expansive and beautiful. The Life Saving Station nestles at thfe foot of the fort bank. An English lady writing to friends in the British Empire in 1848, thus describes the climate at Oswego: "When wanter had once set in, Oswego became a perfect Siberia. At length spring returned with its flowers, and converted our Siberia into an uncultivated Eden, rich in all the ma- jestic charms of sublime scenery and primeval beauty and fertility. If ever the fond illusions of poets and philosophers, that Atlantis, that new Arcadia, that safe and serene Utopia, where ideal quiet and happiness have so often charmed theory, if ever this dream of social bliss, in some new planted region is to be realized, this unrivaled scene of grandeur and fertility bids fairest to be the place of its abode. Here the climate is serene and equal, the vigorous winters that brace the frame and call forth the power of mind and body to prepare for its approach are succeeded by a spring so rapid, the exuberance of vernal bloom bursts forth so suddenly after disappearance of those deep snows which cherish and fructify the earth, that the change seems like a magical delusion." The plant of the Standard Oil Co. 's Shook Factory, the Diamond Match Factory, the Oswego Starch Factory, and the Oswego Shade Cloth Company are among the largest institutions of their kind in the world. Malt, boilers and engines are manu- factured in large quantities, and shipped to all parts of the globe. Millions of feet of Canadian lumber are received during the season of navigation. A new electric road "has been constructed from the heart of the city to a beautiful summer retreat, three miles west, running on the lake side of the boulevard ; the view, as the summit of the boulevard hill is reached, and the descent begins, baffles description.

Ithaca, the northern terminus of the Cayuga Division, is situate at the head of Cayuga Lake, the most beautiful of the chain of inland lakes for which Central New York is so justly famous. It is surrounded on three sides by hills several hundred feet high, separated from each other by deep ravines, and on the north by Cayuga Lake, stretching off to the north for forty miles, through one of the most beautiful and fertile regions in the State. Arriving at the top of Sovith Hill, the first view of Ithaca from the D., L. & W. R. R. is one never to be forgotten. Five hundred feet below, upon the flat, lies the old city of Ithaca, stretching up the sides of each of the three surrounding hills in the newer city, to the right and crowning East Hill is the beautiful campus of Cornell L^niversity with its twenty or more grand and stately buildings, and to the north Cay- uga Lake, its shores lined with summer cottages and its surface dotted with pleasure craft. From the top of South Hill the train begins to descend by the famous ' ' Switch- back " into the valley below, traveling a distance of seven miles, during which there is an ever-changing view of city and landscape and lake, forming a panorama of unex- celled beauty. Perhaps nature has never been more lavish to one locality than to Ithaca. Its beautiful lake and wonderful hills and valleys, and above all its almost innumerable waterfalls and cascades, make it a veritable Mecca for the tourist. Within the cor- porate limits of the city there are three great ravines or gorges, through which the water from the surrounding hill level has for ages been cutting its fantastic way over cascade and waterfall to the lake below. Through the largest of these ravines, ' 'Ithaca Gorge, "the water finds its way to the lake level by a descent of about five hundred feet in less than a mile, between per- pendicular walls of rock several himdred feet high and over a series of cascades and waterfalls until it takes its final plunge over Ithaca Falls, 160 feet high and 100 feet wide. At the head of this ravine, near Triphammer Falls, is located the large reser- voir and new hydraulic canal and laboratory, of Cornell L^niversity, the only thing of its kind in America, in itself an object of great interest. Here too, just below the Falls, a new bridge spans the chasm 200 feet above the stream below. Further down are the great water wheels which supply power to the mechanical department of the University, still further the plant of the Ithaca Street Railway Company, and at VIEW OF ITHACA FROM P., L. & W. SWITCHBACK. DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. Ithaca Falls the tunnel through which the water is conveyed to numerous manufacto- ries below. Within a distance of nine miles from Ithaea there are a score of ravines and by actual count a hundred waterfalls and cascades, fifteen of which are within the city limits. Among the most famous of the falls near Ithaca is Taughannock Falls, the highest in the State, being 215 feet, while the rock rises 150 feet above it. All the surrounding scenery at Taughannock, including the great ravine, extending nearly a mile from the Falls to the lake, is unapproachable for grandeur and beauty. At Taughannock there is a well-kept hotel, and it is easily accessible by the score of small boats that regularly ply the lake, starting from Renwick Beach, a famous excursion point, which has been created and is maintained by the Ithaca Street Rail- way Company. Renwick Beach is free to the public. It has several large and commodious pavil- lions, boat houses, bathing houses and docks, and is Ithaca's gateway to beautiful Caj-uga. Aside from the magnificence of its scenery, the beauty of its homes and the enter- prise of its people, Ithaca is famous and known the world over as the seat of Cornell University. Its location has been pronounced by noted travelers the most beautiful in the world. It has 2,000 students from every part of the world, a teaching force of 220, and is well endowed. Its library and laboratories are second to none and it easily stands in the front rank of American colleges. The same spirit which annually puts its crews to the front upon the water seems to animate its students from an educational point of view, with the result that Cor- nell's graduates are everywhere among the first in every walk of life. The lecture rooms, libraries, museums and shops are always open to visitors, who are made welcome by the University authorities. The University and all points of interest are easily accessible by the street railway, by beautiful drives, and b}^ boat on fair Cayuga. Ithaca now has one of the finest hotels in the State, and, with her varied attrac- tions, well deserves the praise of all who have entered her hospitable gates. DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R.

ELMIRA, Altitude, S57 ft. 266.75 miles from New Y'ork ; Single ticket, S7.25 ; Special ticket, f6.io ; Excursion ticket, $10.45. Situated in the broad and fertile valley of the Chemung, surrounded by well- wooded hills rising from four to six hundred feet, this city presents many attractions to those seeking pleasure, health or even business. DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 101 lOv DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. Here are gathered about 42,500 people, among whom are many of State and National reputation. The streets are shaded by grand old trees ; the homes are com- fortable and attractive, and well-kept lawns on every side are evidences of thrift and culture. Elmira is a city of churches ; among the most notable of all the denominations i& the Congregational Park Church, under the pastorship of the Rev. Thos. K. Beecher. The First Baptist Church is also new and of modern architecture. The New York State Reformatory, situated on a broad plateau at the foot of the western hills, is of much interest as illustrative of real reformation among the younger classes of criminals. In itself, both in architecture and location, it is a striking build- ing, and well repays one for a few hours' visit. ELDKIDGE PARK, ELMIRA, N. Y. Of parks there are four. The most important is " Eldridge Park," in the northern portion of the city. This contains about 40 acres, has a natural lake of crystal water, half a mile in circumference, and many miles of fine drives and walks. It also has pavilions, summerhouses, a bear pit, and all the requisites of first-class, pleasure grounds, which it is, not only for the people of Elmira, but also for those of many cities in the surrounding country. During the season of 1895 over 100,000- excursionists visited the various parks of Elmira. Elmira Heights, a suburb of Elmira, is a bustling industrial town of 5,000 in- habitants engaged in the manufactt;re of window glass, bridges, bicycles, cotton goods and a dozen other things. All street car lines give transfers to Elmira Heights. Here are about 20 miles of electric car roads, running to and fro from all parts, as. well as to the thriving village of Hofseheads, six miles north. In the northwestern part of the city is the Elmira College for Women. This, educational institution is among the first in the land. Its location is high and healthy.

On East Hill, at an elevation of 200 feet, stands the Gleason Sanitarium, where invalids may find skilled medical care, or the pleasure seeker a quiet svimmer home. The charming. valley, at this point, is largely devoted to the culture of tobacco, and large crops are annually raised ; as are also vegetables of the finest quality. The "hill country " is given up to dairies and the quality of their butter is gaining an enviable reputation. ALONG THE CHEMUNG RIVEK, ELMIRA, N. V. The Chemung, an Indian word which means " big horn," is a shallow stream, with a succession of rapids and long, still pools, known as "The Eddys." Above the city are some particularly fine bits of scenery, as the hills are very abrupt and wooded to the water's edge. Splendid camping grounds are to be found, near which run good springs of clear water, and much of this best of summer pastime is indulged in along the picturesqi:e banks Black bass fishing is also good. A fair number of manufac- tories are located here, and various industries are represetited. Much material is shipped annuall}' to all points of the surroi;nding country.

BATH, Altitude 1,102 ft. 303.49 miles from New York ; Single ticket, S7.60 ; Special ticket, J6.60. Bath is one of the loveliest cities of the plain in all New York. It has a popula- tion of 5,000 people, and, as the county seat of Steuben, one of the largest counties in the State, it attracts hundreds of strangers every day, either on business or pleas- ure. The State Soldiers' Home at Bath is a model institution, of which not only the State but the Nation is justly proud. Here 1,500 old heroes are well cared for. The buildings and grounds are splendidly arranged for the purpose, and are beautiful in design and proportion. The Soldiers' Home band, the dress parade, and the veterans themselves are attractions that draw thousands of people to Bath. No better fishing can be found in the State than in the surrounding little lakes and cold water streams. It is the centre of a sportsman's paradise. At Bath all trains stop at the model dining rooms for lunch, and all passengers to Hammondsport and Lake Keuka make connection here with the B. & H. Railroad at Union Station. Reports from the Fish Conmiissioners of the States of New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey for 1894 and 1895, show that all streams bordering on the Lackawanna have been heavily stocked with all kinds of game and edible fish. No railroad in the world has so many trout streams along its course as the Lackawanna. DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 105 NEW VOUK STATE SOLDIERS' HOME, BATH, N. Y.

Formerly called Bloods, it was thought that it might prove more prosperous if given a more pleasing name. Atlanta is a shipping point for an abundant supply of grapes, which are grown around the -village of Naples. WAYLAND, Altitude, 1,361 ft. 329.19 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $7.68 ; Special ticket, $7.00. We are now at the highest point of the Buffalo Division, and the magnificent view of the valley, with its rich and prosperous farms stretching for miles, invites the tourist to feast upon the grandeur of the landscape, if but for a moment. It is not only on account of the fact that Wayland offers this graceful picture in the large album of Nature that it ranks as a prosperous and interesting neighborhood, but also because husbandry flourishes and is necessarily foremost. Here vacationists will find pure air, plenty of milk, eggs and vegetable produce, together with clear, wholesome water. Wayland excels in all these. The Portland Cement Company has a large factory here, which gives the town just enough life to make it agreeable. Passengers make direct connection here for Hornellsville, via Central New York and Western ]Railroad. 106 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. In tbe 6enc$ec Valkp* It is doubtful if the Empire State, famous for the number of its fertile valleys, can offer any other that presents so many charming characteristics as the Genesee. It is a series of magnificent farms, as fertile as aii)- the world produces ; it possesses winding rivers and rapid streams that dance in and out of patches of woodland, meet- ing each other in unexpected ways. The fruit alone that is grown annually in this- valley is sufficient to supply almost all the market of the State ; and, as a grain- growing country, it produces more for its size than any other valley in the world. In the spring the air is heavy with the odor of blossoms, and in the fall the red and golden fruit hangs in clusters in the orchard. PERKINSVILLE, Altitude. 1,35S ft. 331.

DANSVILLE, Altitude, 1,025 ft. 336. 3S miles from New York ; Single ticket, $S.oo; Special ticket, $7.00. Excursiou ticket, $13.30. The approach to Dansville, from either direction, is through a country abounding in picturesque scenery, which apparently culminates in the surroundings of this, hill-encircled town. Lying 400 feet below the railroad, it is enclosed on three sides- by an amphitheatre of hills which, on either hand, stretch far away and are lost on the DELAWAKE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 107 108 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. 109 distant horizon. Like a vast living panorama, hundreds of square niiles of valley and hill are spread out before the traveler, who is both surprised and delighted with the beauty of a picture of surpassing loveliness, rarely equalled in this or any foreign land. Nature is here more gently picturesque than rugged or grand. Although the hills rise upwards of a thousand feet, they are dotted almost to their summits with farms, vineyards and grain fields, which alternate with masses of evergreen and. stretches of timber land. On nearer acquaintance many hidden attractions are discovered by the artist and! the lover of the beautiful — wild, rocky ravines, with precipitous sides and crystal cascades, deep gorges set with pine and hemlock, numerous mountain streams and tangled undergrowth, where the silence of the forest is broken only by the song of the bird or the whirr of the partridge. Stony Brook Glen, similar in its rocky forma- tion and waterfalls to Watkins Glen, a favorite resort, is two miles from the town ; winding roads lead over the hills in every direction, and provide charming walks and drives without number. On the eastern slopes are vineyards, which though now cov- ering hundreds of acres, are increasing yearly. This, in itself, speaks volumes for the- healthfulness of the climate, for where grapes thrive miasmatic conditions are un- known. In the fertile garden valley a deep alluvial deposit furnishes rich soil for raising nursery stock — the chief industry of the town — in which many have invested capital ; and so favorable are conditions of growth that in two years trees attain a size and strength that require three years in other nursery centres. This is the home of the famous Genesee white winter wheat, so successfully raised here in large quan- tities, and the grain fields at every season form an attractive feature of the landscape. The region within which Dansville is situated is salubrious. It is exempt from malaria, and the vital statistics justify its claim to favorable distinction in respect to diseases caused or prolonged by environment. This is probably due to its elevation above sea-level, swift running streams, dry, porous soil, evergreen forest growth, a climate equable and genial on account of its altitude, and more especially to the ex- ceptional dryness and purity of the air. The Meteorological Bureau Reports, and the weather maps of the Smithsonian Institute, show that the narrow strip of Western New York State forming the northerly divide of the AUeghaney chain draining into Lake Ontario, enjoys much less humidity than the surrounding country ; indeed, not until one approaches the pine forests of Northern Michigan, or the equally inhos- pitably dry plains west of the Mississippi River, can there be found any such low average. It is only of this small section, within a region of twelve hundred miles of the Atlantic coast line, that this can be said. These combined influences make it a de- sirable place of residence or resort. And here on the eastern hill-slope, standing as a vision of hope and promise to thousands, is the Jackson Sanatorium, one of the largest and most complete health institutions in the world. Many are attracted yearly to this favored spot, not less by nature's ample provision of pure air and beautiful scenery than by the opportunities afforded for recovery and recuperation under the care of skilled physicians. The mountain spring which supplies the Jackson Sanatorium with water ranks as one of the most famous among home and foreign spas. Dansville has a population of over 4,000, two railroads, gas and electric lighting, telegraph and telephone, eight mails daily, eight churches, a union school, an efficient fire department, good water power, chair, broom-handle, fruit-basket and reaper factories, extensive flour and health-food interests, planing and foundry plants, paper and pulp mills, three weekly newspapers and the monthly journals. No change of cars is required between New York and Dansville, and the trip 110 delawarf:, lacka wanna & western r. r. •may be made in nine hours. Time from Buffalo, two hours. Pullman cars are con- nected with all trains. Those who have had the good opportunitj' to ride over the Lackawanna road by daylight, and are not prejudiced, agree that the view of the Genesee Valley ; as seen from a car window, is not rivalled by any other landscape in this country. A glimpse of the valley is obtained at GROVELAND. Altitude. h^S ft. 343.62 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $S.io ; Special ticket, $7.00. MOUNT MORRIS, Altitude, 585 ft. 350.52 miles from New York ; Single ticket, JS.iS ; Special ticket, $7.00. This delightful village is situated on a tableland, and commands an uninterrupted view of the valley. To the west may be seen the High Banks, noted in history for the ravages of the red men who General Sullivan was at one time commissioned to exterminate. The railroad crosses the Genesee River here. Mount INIorris is a famous resort of the inhabitants of Buffalo, and in summer they collect here in great numbers. A huntsman's club has been formed, and is conducted with regulations similar to the Meadowbrook and other kindred clubs. The periodical "runs" are among the most exciting scenes that enter into the season's gayeties. Bass fishing in the Genesee River is excellent, and attracts many. From Mount Morris to Geneseo, the capital of Livingston County, the drives over excellent roads are pleasing. This feature, above all the other worthy considerations, forms a de- cided attraction. Extensive salt works are established here, and they form a principal feature of its commerce. At Mount Morris connection is made with Western New York and Pennsylvania, LEICESTER, Altitude, 660 ft' 353-75 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $8 25 ; Special ticket, $7,10. GREIGSVILLE, Altitude, ~hi ft. 357.07 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $8.30 ; Special ticket, $7.20. Greigsville is noted for its salt industry. One mine is 1,200 feet in depth, and the salt is taken out in enormous quantities. The amount of labor distributed can be imagined, when the figures relating to the out-put foot up to 800 tons per day. The village is surrounded by a magnificent farming country, and it is a pleasant region in which to spend a summer.

At East Buffalo are located the extensive car shops of this railroad, where new cars are constructed and old cars rebuilt to be recommissioned. The enormous coal chutes belonging to the company are one mile long and have a storage capacity of 150,000 tons. A large yard and cattle pen are also among the Company's possessions at East Buffalo. A busy little place called DepEW, after Chauncey M. Depew, Esq., is close by, and promises to become famous as the greatest car manufacturing town in the United States. BUFFALO. Altitude, 582 ft. 412.94 miles from New York ; Single ticket, $9.25 ; Special ticket, $8.00. This great city is the terminus of the road. It is the largest railroad centre in the State, and among the greatest of the entire Nation. It has been said that a per- son can start at a given point in the large yards and walk a hundred miles on the tops of freight cars. No exaggeration is indulged in, however, when the statement is made that cars from every railroad of any importance in the land are constantly represented on some one of the vast network of rails* laid within the city limits. Buffalo plays an active part as a distributing point for grain and lumber, the lat- ter trade coming largely from Canada. The whar\'es along Lake Erie present a busy aspect at all times, and a day can be well spent among the shipping. The wealth of the city is one of it most startling features, and millionaires are not by any means a rarity. The population aggregates about 265,000, which enables Buffalo to rank as the third city in the State. With a water front of two and a half miles on Lake Erie, as well as on the Niagara River, its location at the foot of the chain of Great Lakes, the reason why it plays such an active part in the commercial interests of the country is apparent. The climate, on account of the influence of the lake winds, is naturally salubri- ous in summer. On the whole the streets are broad, well paved and well lighted, and the city enjoys a good sewerage system. Large and stately shade trees give Buffalo a pretty appearance,' and specially delightful spots are the numerous parks and squares for which the city is noted. The public squares are named Franklin, Niagara, Prospect, Johnsons, Lafayette, and the Terrace. They were designed and laid out by Frederic Law Olmstead, who partlj' acquired his fame by the skill in forestry he dis- played in Central Park, New York City. The number of public buildings and charitable institutions, and the beauty and cost of their erection, is a source of pride with the Buffalonians. As 10 private resi- dences, the city can boast of as many of great cost and beauty as any of its size in the United States, and as for hotels, there are many, "The Niagara" being one of the finest. Passengers for Niagara Falls and points west change cars here. Connections are made with all other roads with little or no inconvenience. DELAWAKE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R.

THE THOUSAND ISLANDS. ;^.UvST where the blue waters of Lake Oiita- 1 rio find their outlet between Cape Vin- cent, N. Y., and Kingston, Can., the Thousand Islands of the St. Lawrence have their beginning, extending some forty miles down the river in picturesque groups, and forming in their entirety one of the loveliest and most varied fishing regions in the world. It is now hardly more than a dozen years since the Thousand Islands began to attract widespread attention, yet the visitor will find along the route of the steamer, which bears him down the crystal current, numbers of large hotels, and hundreds of costly and palatial summer homes, which increase in numbers annually. The tourist portion of the Thousand Islands begins, practically speaking, at Clayton, the terminus of the Rome, Water- town & Ogdensburg Railroad. From this point steamers ply to Alexandria Bay, touch- ing at intermediate points. The first landing is made at Round Island. This is a promi- nent cottage community. It is non-sectarian and numbers among its permanent summer residents many prominent people from the large cities Thousand Island Park, a Methodistic com- munity, is two miles below, and also has its hotel and numerous cottages, as well as a large "tabernacle." Central Park is prettily located midway down the American channel. About ten miles below Clayton, Alexan- dria Bay is located. In the immediate vicin- ity are many of the most costly and beau- tiful summer villas. The "Bay" is the focus of a large summer travel, steamers coming and going constantly. Near Alexandria Bay,andlike that village, also upon the mainland, is Edgewood Park, chiefly occupied by Cleveland families ; and one mile distant is Westminster Park, which has a good hotel and Presbyterian tenden- cies. The fishing at the Thousand Islands will always be its chief charm with the general visitor, and, thanks to the protection of re- cently enacted state laws and the activity of the Anglers' Association, the fishing is always improving. Boatmen, with safe and natty St. Lawrence skiffs, the most beautiful of all water crafts, may be engaged at any of the hotels by the day or week. I Dailv Excursions are made among the islands from all the hotels, upon swift and roomy steamboats. Excursion No 9 — Alexandria Bay and RETURN. Delaware, Lack. & Western R. R., to Utica.

In Western North Carolina, between the Blue Ridge on the east and the Alleghanies on the west, lies this beautiful valley. It is a land of bright skies, incomparable climate and picturesque scenery, whose praises have been sung by poets and whose beauties of stream, valley and mountain height have furnished subject and inspiration to the sketcher's hand. The city is situated in the heart of the mountains, 2,300 feet above the level of the tide. Romantic scenery sur- rounds the town on every side, and the approach to it from either direction leads through a panorama of enchanting views. On the one hand there rises the beautiful Blue Ridge; on the other, the picturesque Alleghanies ; at their feet flow the clear waters of the PVench Broad. There is scarcely a more beautiful valley than this, and certainly none more rich in all that would attract health-seeker, lounger, invalid or dreamer. The climate is superb.

Atlantic City claims for itself to be the most popular resort in this country — an all- year-round health-restoring and pleasure- giving place, unsurpassed in the plenitude of its accommodations. Although immediatel}' on the beach (many houses being but a few feet from the surf), it is a city of ten thousand inhabitants, which, at the height of the sumiuer season, is in- creased to a hundred thousand. In summer, bathing, fishing, driving, boat- ing, and like sea-shore divertisements are its offerings to the well who go there for a rest and change from the monotony of every-day affairs. For the invalid there is ozone-freighted air breezes, tempered by journeys over thou- sands of miles of ocean, cool, comfortable nights for repose, and all the facilities en- joyed in cities of the larger size.

Barnegat is one of the oldest and most cele- brated settlements on the Jersey coast, and many are the traditions that cluster about its shores, so full of peril to sailors. The very name means "dangerous breakers," and man}- an old sailor would testify to the fit- ness of the appellation. The town, located near the shores of Bar- negat Bay, is the Metropolis of the fishing grounds of New Jersey. The bay and inlet are the favorite haunts of bluefish, as well as the home of every other species native to the waters of that section. In addition to its fishing resources, oysters are plentiful, and wild fowl are found in great abundance. Yachts, tackle and sportsmen's supplies may be obtained from the seafaring people, of which the population is largely composed. Excursion No. 275. — Barnegat City AND Return. Del., Lack. & Western R.

Y. This magnificent sheet of water is situated on a table land 1,400 feet above the .sea level, and enjoys the distinction of being the high- est navigable inland sea on the continent. Situated in Western New York in the countj^ of Chautauqua, it is eigthteen miles long and ranges from one to five miles in width. In many respects this lake is the most magnificent in this countr}'. The water is deep and transparent, and as pure as crystal. No wonder, then, that it should abound in fine game fish, and yearly attract anglers to its shore. The air is always cool and invig- orating, and here malaria is absolutely un- known. The boating and bathing are superb and the drives along the shores of the lake and back in the hills are unsurpassed, and scarcely to be equalled anywhere. These features have combined to draw admiring thousands of intellectual holiday-seekers here every summer, and to estal)Iish several large, well-appointed hotels. The class of people that patronize Cliau- tauqiia are lovers of the beautiful in nature, who appreciate all that the Creator^ has bestowed upon it, and know how ^.o get pleasure out of every daylight moment, and invigorating and restful sleep out of the calm, cool nights. A fleet of steamers ply on the lake dail}^ and carry excursiouists all around it. The scene on the water in the daytime, and for SNAl' .^HUI'.— XO. AT TO .MILES AN H0U1^. DELAWAKE, LACKAWANNA & "WESTERN R. R. 131 that matter after moondawn, is one of ani- mation. Steam yachts, launches, row boats and shells are darting in all directions, and the "lone fisherman" sits in quiet contem- plation, awaiting the "tug" of a bass or pickerel. In the fall the duck shooting about the coves and nooks is excellent, and gunners flock there with the same regularity as the wild fowl. The Chautauqua Assembly, organized in 1874, holds its meetings every July and August. The purpose of the enterprise is to combine the recreations of a summer resort wi h intellectual culture and improvement. The Assembly is a great educational institu- tion that attracts teachers of all grades here, both for information, and to commune about their fraternal interests, and this has proved itself one of the most prominent features of attraction. The Assembly grounds are at Point Chautauqua. To lovers of gayetj', Lakewood, a few miles distant, offers every opportunity. And among many of the most beautiful drives in this neighborhood is from Jamestown to Mayville; and, as for aquatic attractions, a sail on the lake is a beautiful sight that awaits the person who will spend the time in steaming from James- town through the narrows.

Captivated by the beauty and health- fulness of the location, they built an enor- mous tabernacle for public wonship and set up their tents around it. Presently the tents became cottages, and, as the population in- creased, a large summer town was built, which has attracted many visitors other than those who came to worship. The shores of Martha's Vineyard, oji which Cottage City is located, are exceed- ingly attractive, and their fascinations are greatly enhanced by the animation which always prevails upon the surrounding waters. All the marine travel between New York and Boston, and between Boston and the South, passes through Holmes' Hole and Vine3-ar(i Sound, and these bits of ocean are always alive with shipping. Bluffs and cliffs over- hang the shore in many places, and many beautiful islets are separated from the mother island by a narrow strip of water. Exc.

(SENECA LAKE.) The pretty town of Geneva, with a popu- lation of 9,000, is pleasantly situated on the shores of Seneca Lake. It is celebrated as well for its schools and churches, as for the fertility and beauty of the surrounding country. It was the principal seat of the Senecas, and there still remains in the vicinity an ancient fortification erected by the "mound builders," as well at an old Indian cemetery, which has not as yet been desecrated by the plow. The climate of this section is fine, and the means of living abundant. The mineral springs near by are highly esteemed for their health-restoring properties.

The Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad connects at Bath with the Bath & Hammondsport Railroad, and a ride through the far-famed Pleasant Valley brings the traveler to Hammondsport, N. Y., at the head of Lake Keuka. Here nestled along the vine-clad hills of Yates and Steuben Counties, lies Lake Keu- ka, "The Queen of Lakes," the most beau- tiful of the smaller lakes in America. In a country whose picturesqueness is far-famed, in the midst of scenery for which western New York is noted, this gem of inland waters has rapidly increased in fame and popularity. The quiet beauty ef its waters, the novelty of its scenery, the salubrity of its atmosphere have graduallj' extended its name until to-day Lake Keuka is recognized as one of the most famous resorts in New York State. It is the land of health and recreation. No swamp land or malaria is fotmd, no mosquitos are bred in the dr\' healthy air and hay fever is unknown. Sailing, rowing, fishing and bathing are pastimes with which one wiles away the summer hours. From all parts of the coun- try enthusiastic fishermen come to lure from the depths the fish which everywhere abound. The following endorsement from DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R.

R. 141 Seth Green, the late veteran fisherman and United States Fish Commissioner, speaks for itself : " I think Lake Keuka unsurpassed by any waters in America as a fishing resort. The purity of the water, the large amount of fish food contained in the Lake, tend to put the fish in the finest condition for the table, and render them very strong and gamey when on the hook and line. During one of my sojourns in August, I took by hook and line 19 salmon trout weighing 113 pounds, and one day in October, 33 black bass, weighing 106 pounds." The lake is 22 miles long, divided about midway by a long bold promontor)^ extend- ing southward into its waters and termi- nating in " Bluff Point," one of the notable landmarks of this section, from whose loftj' summits seven counties can be seen. Lake Keuka is 780 feet above sea level ( and over 270 feet above its larger neighbor ' ' Seneca ' ' Lake, at the head of which is the famous Watkins Glen), and its shores and lofty hills remind the traveler of the banks of the River Rhine, where the wooded hills are covered for miles with vineyards. The pre- cipitous sides of the Lake for miles are cov- ered with farm houses, woodland glens and vineyards, while its water's edge is dotted with hotels and cottages, affording a pano- rama of unceasing beauty and interest to the tourist when viewed from the deck of the passing steamer. The hotels of Lake Keuka are "Grove Springs," "Keuka," "Gibson's,"' and while at the head of the Lake is the'"Fairchild House." All the hotels have spacious, cool rooms, broad verandas, and handsome sur- roundings of groves and grassy lawns, and connected with each, besides the dancing pavilions, bath houses, etc., are many cot- tages which are rented to families and par- ties. Keuka Park, on the west shore of the Lake, four miles from Penn Yan, is a pro- jecting circle of land rising gently from the water's edge, containing 160 acres, 40 acres of grove and 170 rods water frontage. Here are the large buildings of Keuka College, dozens of commodious cottages, and the College boarding Hall, open, to summer guests, the great ampitheatre and assembly pavilion, where thousands gather every sum- mer to attend lectures, concerts and religious convocations, and delightful homes near where boarders are entertained. The streets are capital for wheelmen and ample facilities for boating and fishing supplied. Frequent mails, a money order P. O., steamers and stages, and an electric Railroad to Penn Yan, are among the conveniences of the Park. Lake Keuka 's grapes have a national rep- utation, while its champagnes are only rivalled by those of foreign vintages. Over 20,000 tone of grapes are annually grown, and LAKE KEUKA. 142 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. many million gallons of still wines and bot- superior quality of their wines.

The grapes are picked and selected with great care, and every rotten and imper- fect grape is carefully removed before going to the press to be made into wine.

It not only is injurious to the consumer, but it ruins the sale of honest champagne like the wine of the Germania W^ine Cellars, that requires years of labor to produce and perfect. Carbonated champagne can be made out of any kind of wine, no matter about the quality or kind of grapes it is made from, but natural champagne can only be made from certain grapes naturally adapted to the purpose — in fact, they should be perfect. The Germania Wine Cellars use none but the very best in the production of their champagne. Money, labor or expense is no object. They have the best, and everything that can be done or thought of to keep their goods in the front rank with the very best imported wine, is always done. The Germania Wine Cellars' vineyards are so situated that they face the morning sun, and if there is any sun at all they get it the whole day, and the soil and climate neces- sary for fine champagne grapes cannot be improved upon in any part of the world. As America is ahead of the whole world in nearly every branch of production and mechanism, it is safe to predict that the time is not far distant when Americans will have to look to the home grower for the best wines produced in the world. Pure wine, especially champagne, is a medicine, and any doctor of any prominence does not hesitate to recommend it to his patients who can afford to use it.

Those who have visited these wonderful and recently discovered subterranean cav- erns testify that they form wonderful ex- amples of nature's handiwork. Words can- not adequately describe them ; they must be studied to be thoroughly realized. The vestibule of this subterranean mansion is attained by descending the stone steps of the cave, and once there the first sensation experienced b}^ the visitor is one of awe, at the fearful stillness that reigns supreme, and that is in no way enlivened by the grotesque forms surrounding. Once mastered, how- ever, these emotions turn to wonder. From an entrance hall, elaborate with stalacite decorations, numerous avenues lead into un- known depths. One of the coridors leads to the Fish Market, or rather to a cave which, to all appearances, is hung with row upon row of fish, so natural is the form of the pendants from above. The crystal lake with its unruffled ice-cold surface ; the vegetable garden with ever erratic, but none the less vegetable like hangings. Numerous cham- bers, everyone known from a striking resem- blance to too easily recognized objects, and each filled with the quaint subterranean creations are connected one to the other by lanes, which appear as though covered by some giant hand; grottoes elaborated with the richest ornamentation ; sparkling water- fall, and figures and forms of indefinite shape inspire emotions of wonder, which grow with each new revelation. Here we find a Cathedral, with its ever noiseless organ; a hall of giants relieved by fluted columns and arches innumerable. A plateau- like spot, commonly known as the Elfin Ramble, together with Hades, Horey's Hall and Pluto's Chasm, and a variety of other equally fine attractions form but a limit to the marvelous sights these caverns contain. Here, nature has fashioned itself in "its own erratic style. Nothing in the way of artificial adornment has been done here by man. These caves may be examined without much difficulty, as the obstructions are few, and may be easily surmounted be the anxious and ever-daring explorer.

Mauch Chunk is situated in the picttir- esque gogre or canon formed by the hand of nature for the passage of the Lehigh River through the mountains. Besides being unique in its site, it possesses a wealth of beauty in its surroundings that has given it a prominent place among the mountain cities of the world. The scenery in every direction is superb. Every prospect is replete with wild beauty ; every emotion excited by the outlook is one of admiration. Leading up from the cit}- to the top of Mt. Pisgah is the celebrated Switchback Rail- road, which lifts the passengers to an eleva- tion of eighteen hundred feet above the waters of the river. The ascent, though ab- solutely safe, is exciting, and the \'iew, both from the car and from the mountain's top, is magnificent. Within a few minutes' ride up the Lehigh is the beautiful Glen Onoko.

New Bedford glories in the possession of one of the finest, as well as the most pictur- esque, harbors of the Atlantic coast. The entrance to the harbor, lying between Clark's Neck and Sconticut Point, is strongly forti- fied, and the wharf frontage extends along the broad Acushnet for two miles. Fair- haven, on the opposite shore of the river, is connected with the city by a long bridge. The city rises gradually from the water's edge, and the streets are shaded and beauti- fied by fine old elms. A public driveway, extending along the coast for five miles, pre- sents excellent views of the ocean and the islands which dot its surface. The various industries of New Bedford attract people of all nationalities, and an idle hour may be well passed in studying the various types of its inhabitants. New Bedford is the starting point for the steamer ride to Nantucket, Martha's Vine- yard, and Cottage City. It has pleasant neighbors in the pretty summer towns of Fairhaven, Mattapoisett, Marion and Nonquit. Excursion No. 286. — New BedpIord and Return. Delaware, Lack. & Western R. R to New York.

This magnificent cataract, the grandeur of which has been but inadequately dwelt upon by many celebrated writers, calls for far more elaborate treatment than in our limited space, even if we had words at command 153 DELAWARE, LACKAWANNA & WESTERN R. R. to do this wonder of Nature justice, we can allot to it. We are only able to hint at few of its marvels and to dilate a little on the unrivalled beauty of the ceaseless roaring "Thunder of Waters." To the aboriginees, this wonderful cataract was called " Ony-a-ka-ra " and " Og-na- ka-ra, " " Thunder of Waters, ' ' and thus it will be seen that even they, in all their sim- plicity, realized what a mighty work Nature had here accomplished. Niagara Falls never becomes monotonous to the visitor. Any one gazing upon it realizes how hard it is to be able to describe it adequately, for any at- tempt at word-painting of this rolling flood would prove but a poor travesty of the work of Almighty God. Three distinct falls comprise the whole. These are the "Horse Shoe" on the Canadian side, "American" on the Niagara or United States side, and "Central," which descends between Luna and Goat Islands. Three thousand feet is the entire breadth of the combined falls. Niagara ranks as the foremost of the world's wonders, and is visited annually by hundreds of thousands from all parts. In- deed many a newly-married couple will spend their honeymoon there. It has been stated that the sound of the falling waters can be heard at a distance of 24 miles, and that from eighteen to twenty- one millions of cubic feet of water descend per minute from the river above. The lakes 1 and streams that find an outlet in the Niagara River drain five hundred thousand or more square miles of land, and the lakes and trib- utaries themselves cover a surface of one hundred and fifty thousand square miles. The river, in its onward flow to Lake On- tario, has a fall of 334 feet. It dashes heed- lessly on over rocks and islets, and is lashed into foam all the way to Lewiston. No craft yet built — yes, one, the Maid of the Mist, on June 15, 1861, was successfully taken from the foot of the falls, through the rapids and whirlpool, and finally delivered on Lake Ontario — even were the water of sufficient depth, could sail the rapids. Several daring adventurers have sacrificed their lives to win fame and money by braving the rapids, the foremost among these was Captain Webb. The State of New York, having secured the rights to the lands adjacent to the Falls, has incorporated them into Niagara Park, which embraces the greatest points of in- terest on the American side. The park is open to the public free of charge. Goat Is- land, connected with this park by a bridge, offers the best view of the falls, and from Prospect Park, on the mainland, the scener}- is magnificent. The drive along the Cana- dian shore affords a splendid view of the gorge and rapids. Connected with the falls are innumerable points of interest, principal among which are the Cave of the Winds, Three Sisters Island, Burning vSpring, the Whirlpool Rapids, Suspension and Cantilever Bridges. A sensational trip is that made across the river below the falls in a little steamer, the modern Maid of the Mist. The drives around Niagara are very in- teresting, and the village itself, witii its pretty homes, fine streets and great numbers of large, well-kept hotels, should be ex- plored by visitors.

PROFILE HOUSE, N. H. WHITE MOUNTAINS. The Profile House is the principal resort in the Franconian range, the feature in the locality being Mt. Lafayette, tS.S^S feet), Canon, Bald, Liberty, Pleasant and others. Other peculiarities are Echo Lake, Eagle Cliff, Old Man of the Mountain, Profile Lake, the Plume, Pool, etc., etc. The house though immense in size and placed at an elevation of 2,000 feet above sea level, is sunk into comparative insignificance, so small is it compared with the almost perpen- dicular mountains which rise up from its doors. What is particularly striking here is the magnitude of everything. The air is, of course, pure as can be obtained ; the drives are perfect in their roadbed and penetrate rotnantic regions.

Quebec, a great city of 75,000 inhabitants, is the only walled city in this country. It is triangular in form (St. Charles and St. Law- rence Rivers, and Plains of Abraham being the lines). There are really two towns — upper and lower — the former being strongly fortified and elevated nearly four hundred feet above the latter. It is quaint and antique in the extreme and strangers are naturally surprised to find so ancient a city in this part of the world. The Citadel attracts every visitor to Quebec. Within the battlements there are more than forty acres, the wall surrounding which is about three miles long. Excursion No. 100 A. — To Quebec. Delaware, Lack. & Western R. R to Buffalo. N. y.
