Many persons of means 20 to Europe and the Orient, and pass their time in visiting historic places, and the fashion- able resorts of Britain and the Continent. But much tlie larger 'part of our people who are able to indulge in out- ings, " patronize home Industries." This country has no ancient history. We are a people of to-day, a people of anticipation, rather than retrospect, and our watering places are of comparatively recent date. Much the larger portion of our vacation-enjoying class are excursionists. Some take in the mountains ; many indulge in fishing and hunting, or visit the great natural curiosities ; the mineral springs and other health resorts also have a numerous clientage; but much the larger number, iu the dull summer season, visit the shore resorts. As a consequence, the North- ern Atlantic coast, from New Jersey to Nova Scotia, is dotted with bathing beaches, summer hotels, villas and cottages. These resorts are of all grades, fron» fashionable Newport, to a plain, unpretentious cot- tage, where plain people can wear their old clothes, if they so prefer, and where they can get ■' home fare" THE JERSEY SHORE. „J^ at a cheap price, aiul at tlic saiiic time experience as good sea Ijreezes and as flue ocean liatUini; as falls to the lot of the millionaire. CAPE MAY. — The summer shore resorts of the At- lantic coast may be considered as beginning at Cape Ma)', the southern point ou the New Jersey coast, fronting the Atlantic, at the entrance of Delaware Bay. Cape May is one of the oldest and most cele- brated of American watering places. Fifty years ago it was probably the most popular one in the country. It was then the favorite watering place of Philadel- phia, and it dates its origin from the time when Philadelphia was the lluest and most populous city in the United States. Before the war this resort was mucli frequented by pei - pie of means from the South and West. Since then it has had to yield precedence to younger and cheap- er rivaT.<< in nearer proximity to the large cities. It is eighty-one miles from Philadelphia, by the West Jersey Railroad, and in the season, excur- sion steamers ply between it and the Quaker City at fre- quent intervals. Its beach, which is flv. miles long, slopes gradually , and. being covered with a fine white sand, forms a delightful promenade anil drive when the tidr is out. As a bath ing beach it is un- surpassed. The surf is especially fine, and it is claimed that the water is less chilly than elsewhere on the coast. A long promenade extends along the water front, and it is generally thronged in the forenoon and late in the afternoon. The place has a resident population of about 2,500, and is an incorporated city. It has several hotels, some of which are large and elegant. The hotels and cottages are built on a small piece of land, only about 250 acres in extent, known as Cape Island. It was formerly separated from the main land l)y a small creek. A favorite drive l)y Cajie May habitues is from Poverty Beach u> Di.iniuud Beach, a distance of ten miles. Other near-by resorts on the coast are Cape May Point, Sewell's Point and Schellinger's Landing. They are easily reached by steam and street cars from Cape May. Inland points of attraction are Holly Beach. Wildwood, Angh'sia and Cold Spring. The hotels charge from .?3 to $i a day. and good board can be oljtained in boarding houses for from $10 to .$18 a week. ATLANTIC CITY, which contained only about half a dozen houses forty years ago, when the railroad con- necting it with Philadelphia was opened, is now a flourishing city of about 15,000 inhabitants. Lying considerably nearer Philadelphia than Cape May, it has outstripped its old rival as a popular resort, and is now the favorite water- ing place of the Quaker City. It is reached by the Camden and .Atlan- tic City Railroad, and by the Atlantic City division of t h e Philadelphia and Reading Rail- road. The hotels and larger cottages are built upon an island, just off from the main land, from which it is separated by wide- st retching salt marshes, which are Relieved to add to the healthfuluess of the place. The l)each is one of the finest on the coast, and at the regular l)athing hour — 1 1 o'clock — it presents an attractive and enlivening scene. Boating and Ashing the vicinity are favorite pastimes, and some famous hunting grounds are in close proximity to the city, while Barnegat, Wareton, West Creek and Tuckerton are easy of access. A short distance north is the beautiful but ill-omened Brigantine Beacli, called by sailors " the graveyard." Near by, also, is the famous Long Beach. The hotels at Atlantic City charge .$3 a day atid upward, but, as is usually the case at popular shore resorts, people who desire to economize can get good accom- modations Ijy the week at Ijoarding houses at much lower prices. THE JERSEY SHORE. BAY HEAD is a small summer resort, about raid- Tvay between Baniegat and Sandy Hook lights, wliicli is noted for recent shipwrecl^s -which have occurred upon its beach. It has a curious breed of Manx eats, without tails, which sprang from two cats which came ashore in a wreck. The place has three larse summer hotels. BRIELLE is a handsome little watering place, near the mouth of the Manasquan River, oSJ miles from New York. The river here forms a cove, known as the " Glimmerglass." During recent years a settle- ment of pretty cottages has been established here, and it is constantly growing. Broad, well-kept streets are a feature of the place. All the river pleasures and sports are available to sojourners. The Brielle House, a thoroughly modern and well-ap- pointed hotel, stands within a stone's throw of the cozy railroad station. and Long Branch pass the doors. The rates of this model hotel are moderate, and may be had on applica- tion to the proprietor, Mr. Wesley M. Niblock. POINT PLEASANT, a mile and a-half below Brielle, has been patronized for a century and a-half as a sum- mer resort, and claims to be the coolest place on the coast. Manasquan, another near-by resort on the Manasquan River, is growing in the estimation of the public as a summer resort. SPRING LAKE, 56 miles from New York, is one of the most fashionable resorts on the coast. It has tw o large hotels and many cottages. Sea Girt, a mile away, and connected with Spring Lake by a broad, hard roadway, is a resort f a high order, which has many beautiful natural features. Como and Lake Como, Belmar, Avon, Shark River and Silver Lake are attractive watering places of in creasing importance. K<' ^iu^ Beach Houks at Atlantic City. BRIELLE INN, formerly known as the Carteret Arms, h.is been thoroughly renovated this season, and under a new management will be open from Juue I to Octo- ber 1. This house is situated in the garden of New Jersey and is an ideal seaside resort, combining rest and city comforts. The facilities for either surf or still-water Imthing are excellent, as it is near a fine sea beach, while in front and rear are river and inlets, and beautiful Glimmerglass Lake touches the grounds, The cuisine is in charge of a former chef of Pel- monicos and the dining-room, which, with the parlor, are furnished with open fires for cool and damp weather, faces the ocean and Glimmerglass Lake. The house is provided with gas, closets, baths, electric bells and good water, and the sleeping rooms, as well as the parlors, are large and airy. The railroad station is but two minutes" walk from the door«, and fifty trains from New York, Philadelphia. Sandy Hook ASBURY PARK.— Infrequent visitors to Jersey shore resorts will be surprised at the rapid growth of Asbury Park in prosperity and popularity. The fame of its beauties and attractions is becoming world- wide. It lies on the coast, 20 miles south of Sandy Hook. Wesley Lake, a tranquil sheet of water al- ways alive with rowboats, marks its southern bound- ary and separates it from Ocean Grove. On the east is the broad Atlantic and on the north, beautiful Deal Lake. It has a resident population of 6,000 and a summer one of 7 ;,000. It supjiorts three daily news- papers, has 300 hotels and boarding houses, electric lights, an electric railway, artesian water works, good sewers and well-kept streets. The visitor here is affordod every healthful attraction and amuse- ment found at a large and growing summer place but he will miss mosquitoes, saloons and gambling houses. THE JERSEY SHORE. Atlantic Avenue, Atlantic City, N. J. OCEAN GROVE the great Methodist camp-meeting ground, is next door neighbor to Asbury Park, and may be included among its features. The " Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association of the Methodist Episcopal Church " owns 2CG acres of land here, and holds a continuous camp-meeting from .July 1 to Sep- tember 15. Its great tabernacle will hold 15,o00 per- sons. THE HOTEL SPRAY VIEW is situated at the corner of Sea View, Ocean and Spray Avenues, and is the near- est bouse to the surf bathing grounds, with views of ocean and lake from all the rooms.

NORTH ASBURY PARK and Wauaraassa are attrac- tive little suburbs of Asbury Park. Sunset Lake, east of North Asbury Park station, is dotted with islands and surrounded by beautiful cottages. Loch Arbour, on the shore of Deal Lake, opposite North Asbury Park, has a fine surf bathing beach. LONG BRANCH conies within the New York orbit rather than that of Philadelphia, although visitors from the lat- ter city are nnmerous. It is an old w.atering place, but the era of its prosperity dates from since the close of the Rebellion. It is easy of access from N'ew York, and it has lieen a favorite resort fur all classes. The nkl village lies back from the shore about half a mile, but the hotels and cottages are situated on a broad plateau about 20 feet above the sea. The bathing beach is unsurpassed. The usual time for entering the water is just before high tide, at which time Hags are displayed at the leading hotels. Boats are stationed just outside of the surf line as a precaution in case venturesome bathers should be caught in the undertow. Long Branch can be reached from New York by two routes — by rail over the New York and Long Branch Railroad, and by steamer, from Pier 8 to Sandy Hook, and thence by the Sandy Hook division of the Jersey Central Railroad, a distance of eleven miles. The THE JERSEY SHORE. steamers leave four times a clay. The hotels charge from S3 to §5 a clay. The drives hi the vicinity of Long Branch are very attractive. Pleasure Bay, a favorite resort for picnics, is only one mile distant. The Monmouth Park Race Course is only four miles away. This is the track where Salvator, in 1S90, ran a mile in 1 : 35J, the fastest time ever made ou the American turf. Deal, a cjuaiut old village, with a flue bathing beach, lies live miles south of Long Branch. Within easy access also is Ocean Grove, the great Methodist camp meeting ground. Shark River, just south of Deal, is a favorite place for picnickers. An object of interest, also, to visitors to Long Branch is Elberon Cottage, where the lamented Garfield died. THE WEST END HOTEL, at Long Branch, is one of the largest summer hostleries on the Atlantic coast. It is delightfully located on a blufl" about forty feet above tide water, is within 200 feet of the beach, and commands au uninterrupted view of the ocean from all points. The hotel, with its cottages, has ac- commodations for over 1000 guests, and is fitted with all modern conveniences. Cool sea breezes constantly blow, and there are no mosquitoes or ma- laria. All routes and trains land passengers at the West End station, 300 yards back of the hotel, where stages meet the trains. The proprietor is Mr. D. M. Hildreth. SEABRIGHT, a queen among Jersey shore resorts, occupies an elegant site ou the ocean at the mouth of the Shrewsbury River. It has elegant hotels and cot- tages, fine gravel roads, flagged walks, a perfect sew- erage system, electric lights and excellent water. The village of Nauvoo, in this town, is the largest fishing place on the coast. Low Moor, which laps Seabright on the south, attracts many fashionable cottagers. Monmouth Beach, still further south is also a resort of people of refined and aristocratic tastes. Remson Beach, Xormandie, Navesink Beach and Highland Beach are other resorts next north of Seabright. STATEN ISLAND is naturally a part of New Jersey, It is separated from the Jersey shore by only a nar- row sound, while New York bay lies between it and the rest of the State of New York. It is one of the largest islands on our Atlantic coast. It Is 13 miles long, from 4 to 8 miles broad, and contains 58^ square miles, or about the same as the island of Nantucket. It is divided into five townships, the whole constituting the county of Richmond, with a population of 57,000 in 189'2. Its prox- imity to New York, and its beautiful location, causes it to increase rapidly in population. It is clotted over with villages of all sizes, from New Brighton, with nearly 20,000 inhabitants, down to the merest hamlet. The island enjoys rapid transit throughout its length and breadth, and at certain hours of the day steamers ply to and from New York every twenty minutes. The facilities in the w.ay of electric lights, water works and sewerage are excel- lent, and the island is considered one of the most salubrious localities in the country. It is one of the nearest and best breathing spots for the Metropolis. <^^^' K The WKsr Ekd Hotel and Cottages, Long Branch, N. J THE jp:rsp:y shore.

NAVESINK.— On the way to Long Branch the sight- seer passes Navesink Highlands, a series of bold and picturesque blufts on the .Shrewsbury river. These highlands are the first laud seen from a ship in ap- pro.Tching Xew York. RED BANK is a pretty town of 4,145 inhabitants, standing at the head of navi- gation on Shrewsbury river, fight miles from Long Branch. It affords excellent facilities for sailing, fishing and Ijathing. MANASQUAN, on the New York and Long Branch divi- sion of the Central Railroad, twelve and a half miles from Long Branch, and half a mile from the shore, is a pretty little watering place which attracts many visitors. SANDY HOOK, although not properly a watering place, is an object of inter- est to many. It is a low, sandy beach, six miles long iind from a half mile to a mile wide, which is mainly owned and occupied by the United States Government. 3 the sentinel which guards the great city of New York from approach by sea. The extreme point is cov- ered with Government works, forts, lighthouses, watch towers and signal sta- tion. Every vessel, entering or departing from New York is signalled as it passes in or out and the name and class of the craft, and the exact minute when it passes is jjlaced on record. Near the eastern point of the Hook are Government prov- ing grounds, where im- mense rifled ordnance are tested previous to their being accepted by the Government It might appropriately be termed an artillery grave- yard, for bursted cannon of all grades and sizes lay in every direction. Sandy Hook bay, on the southwest, afibrds an important shelter to out-going or incoming vessels in stormy weather, un the opposite side of the Ij.ay'is'the borough of Atlan- tic Highlands, a shore place of increasing importance. Other resorts worthy of mention between Sandy Hook and New York are South Amboy, Perth .\mboy, Boyn- ton Beach and Cartarct. CONEY ISLAND. Among the internal points of interest iu New .lei-sey which attract tour- ists are the Delaware Water Gap Lakes Hopal- ;, and Greenwood and Passaic Falls, at Pater- NEW YORK is the great Metropolis of the West- ern Hemisphere. Considered iu its greatest signiti- cance— the city and its suburbs— it is the second city in size in the world. Loudon alone outranks it, and it is doubtful if Babylon or any of the other great cities of anti(iuity ever contained as many people as now reside in the "Greater New York." By a police census just completed, New York contains 1,849,000 inhabitants within its municipal limits. Brooklyn has another million, and there are 200,000 more in the other municipalities which go to make up the pro- posed Greater New York. Adding the overflow of the city iu Jersey City, Hoboken, and other Jersey places, and the total would be raised to nearly three and a half millions. These millions are made up of all races under the sun. There are more Irish in New York city than iu Dublin, and few German cities have more Germans than it contains. Almost every European and Oriental race, and almost every re- ligious sect has its representative here. In short no city in the world is more cosmopolitan than is New York. It is the great business, literary and society centre of the country, and it is to some extent, its political centre also. Everything obtainable iu the world can be procured here; everything movable can be seen here. It follows, therefore, that New York is the most interesting point in the country. Hence at all times— in winter and in summer, in spring and in autumn — llie metropolis is thronged with visitors. The great watering places have their seasons of ac- tivity and of dullness. New York is always alive with its own people and with strangers. It has the tallest buildings in the country, and it is rich with historical mementos. Trinity Church, the Metropolitan Mu- seum of Art, Castle Garden, the Tombs, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, Brooklyn Bridge and Grant's tomb, are among the most conspicuous objects of interest which every stranger must see. There are over fifty theaters, opera houses and music halls. numerous art galleries and libraries, and almost everything— good, bad and indifferent— to interest the visitors. The elevated, electric and cable railway lines cover the city and suburbs in all directions, and the ferries reach to every suburb which can be approached by water, .iniong the principal ferries are those running to Brooklyn, Long Island City, Staten Island, Jersey City, Hoboken, Blackwell's, Randall's and Ward's Islands. Excursion steamers also run to the countless pleasure resorts which line the water front in the vicinity of the city in all directions. One of the most popular of these at the present time is Glen Island in Long Island Sound, near New Rochelle. Steamers and sailboats can also be taken at any time to visit the Government forts. Governor's, Bedloe's and Ellis Island, and the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Several of the near-by resorts in the vicinity of Brooklyn are reached by the elevated and surface rail ways. Brooklyn itself is an interesting city. It has many historic relics, and its great Park (Prospect) is one of the most lieautiful in the country. The Long Island Kailroad, with its several branches, reaches all important p.>ints on Long Island, as far as Greenport and Sag Harbor. Long Island contains about a million and a quarter of people, most of whom are concentrated in the two counties of Kings and Queens, within suburban dis- tance. But Suffolk, the remaining county, which spreads over two-thirds of its area, is also adding rapidly to its population. In fact the healthful and pleasant situation of the island makes nearly every section of its territory attractive to both permanent and transient residents. CONEY ISLAND probal)ly has a larger summer pa- tronage than any other group of shore resorts of equal extent on the continent. It is within a few minutes' ride of New York by either rail or boat, and it is pa- tronized by rich and poor alike. A little more than twenty years ago it was the resort of the roughs and criminals of both sexes, but in 1874, through the energy of a Brooklyn capitalist, who built a first rate railroad thither, and established a large modern hotel and excursion pavilion at the terminus thereof, it was brought to the notice of respectable people. Since then seven steam roads and as many steamboat lines have been established, and all are now taxed to their utmost to accommodate the public. West Brighton Beach, or Coney Island proper, is first reached. It has elegant promenades, and innu- merable hotels, dining saloons, dancing pavilions, con- cert halls, etc.. and two thousand Ijathing houses. ,..^/-- J IE BUWERr/' NEV LONG ISLAND SHOKE. A half mile walk or drive along: a line ocean-shore boulevard, brings one to West Brighton, the sninmer home of Brooklyn. In one of its hotels alone two thousand guests can be accommodated at its tallies. A quarter of a mile beyond Brighton is Manhattan Beach, which is laid out and conducted in magniScent style. This is the favorite summer home of New York. There are twenty-seven hundred bathing houses upon its beach, and it is no uncommon thing on a fine summer afternoon to see 100,000 people there. Sousa's celebrated b.and has been engaged to give daily concerts there during the present season. SOUTH COAST— Other nearby shore resorts be- tween Manhattan Beach and Point Lookout, on the the Great South Bay region, the most prominent places are Babylon, forty miles from New York, a fashionable resort; Fire Island, Bayshore, Islip, Oalv- dale, Sayville, Bayport, Patchogue, Bellport, Brook- haven, Mastic and South Haven. Moriches, on East Bay, which lies just east of Great South Bay, is a pleasant resort which is thronged with visitors every season. Eastport, Speonk and Westhampton are also attractive resorts; Quogue, just beyond the latter, was a favorite fishing place for I)e Witt Clinton and Daniel Webster. Good Ground, Pon(iuogue and Canoe Place are next in order. The latter place has been an attractive point for sportsmen for more than a hundred years. Across the canal TiiK FAjrou.s Sofxi) Stkami Til South Coast, are Sheepshead Bay, Rockaway, Ocean Park, Nameoke, Anvergne-by-the-Sea, Wave Crest, Far Rockaway, Bayswater, Lawrence Beach, West- ville, Feriihurst, Ccdarhurst, Woodslnirgh and Long Beach. Before Long Branch could claim any social consequence. Far Rockaway rivalled Cape May and Newport in fame. GREAT SOUTH BAY RESORTS.-Many interesting villages lie between Jamaica and the Great South Bay, alongside of the Montauk division of the Long Island Railroad. Among others may l)e mentioned Freeport, Randall Park, Woodcleft Park, Rockville Center, Oceanville, Pearsalls,.Milburn, Bellmore, Wantagli. Merrick, Massapequa, Seaford and Amityvilh^. In from Canoe Place arc the Shinuecock Hills, extending a distance of four miles to Southampton village. Near the latter is the reservation of tlie once powerful tribe of Shinuecock Indians, now nuniliering only al50ut one hundred souls. Many aboriginal relics and other antiquities are to l)e found in this vicinity. Be- yond Southampton are Watermills, Bridgehampton and Sag Harbor, the terminus of the Montauk iiranch of the Long Island Railroad. A hundred years ago Sag Harbor had more foreign commerce than New York city, and lifty years ago it was extensively engaged in the whaling indns- trv. Now, it is a nianuf;ict\irinir village and a LONG L-^LAND SHORE. Seven miles beyond Sag Harbor, by stage, is East- hampton, whicla was visited by Hudson before Ply- moutli was settled. John Howard Payne once lived there, and it is now the .summer home of Rev. T. De Witt Talmage. Two miles beyond is Amagansett, and nearly twenty miles east of the latter is Montauk Point, the extreme eastern point of Long Island. The main line of the Long Island Railroad passes through the central portion of the island, and ter- minates at Greenport on the Sound. This section contains numerous villages, most of which have their quotas of summer visitors, .\mong them are Mineola, East Williston, Westbury, HIcksville, Central Park, Farmingdale, West Deer Park, Deer Park, Prcnt- •wood. Central Islip, Waverly, Medford, Vapli:nik. Manor, Baiting Hollow and Riverhead. Near Peconic Bay, which:divides the eastern end of the island into two forks, are Jamesport, a popular summer resort, Mattituck, Peconic and Southold. The latter was settled in 1640, and the Congregational church then organized, is still alive and prosperous. Greenport, the terminus; of the railroad, is a smart village, which was formerly [extensively engaged in whaling. It has regular steamboat connection with Shelter Island and New Lon- don. SHELTER ISLAND is rapid- ly coming into prominence as a resort for summer va- cationists who appreciate the charms of scenery, the pleasures of bathing, sailing, boating and fishing and the healthiness of salt sea breezes, without the clatter, noise and lond display of the 1 places which receive tlie daily and hourly unload- ing of the big cities. It was first settled more than two and a half centuries ago, by Quakers, who were fleeing from the persecution of the New England Puritans. The island has thirty miles of excellent roads, which are much used by visitors for driving and horse back riding. Fine hotels, board- ing houses and cottages for the accommodation of visit- ors are scattered over the island. Gardiner's Island, east of Shelter Island, also has its favorites, as has Fisher's Island, which is not far from Stonington. IHE PROSPECT HOUSE, lieautifnlly situated upon Shelter Island heights and overlooking DearingBay, is one of the largest and best appointed summer hotels on the eastern coast. The house is surrounded by beautiful shade trees and grassy lawns sloping to the water's edge, •' - l.'i -oi;!. and is, with the new annex, capable of accommodating liver :ii.iO guests. The rooms are ^arranged en suite, and are provided with Imth, electric bells and elec- tric lights in all rooms.

THE NORTH SHORE of Long Island is quite diflereut from the South Shore, its surface being much more rugged. There is but little surf, but it has many fine beaches, where bathing is of the still water kind. On the Oyster Bay branch of the Long Island railroad the best known resorts are Roslvn, Sea Cliff, Glen Cove and Oyster Bay. These places have for years been favorite retreats for wealthy and cultured people, and their praises have been well set forth in prose and verse, and by the artists' pencil. Roslyn was the fa- vorite residence of the poet Bryant, and his ashes rest there. The Seawanhaka Yacht Club has Its head- quarters at Oyster Bay. Cold Spring, on the Port Jefferson branch of the railroad, enjoyed more sum- mer travel last year than its hotels couUl accommo- date. Huntington boasts an old fort, the relic of British occupancy during the Revolution. Centreport, Northport — whose harbor has been likened to the Bay of Naples — King's Park, Stony Brook, and Setauket are all charming places. Fort Jett'erson, the terminus of the railroad, i< a ■iliip-lmililing place of considerable importance, anW \' uiaiiiiaius a steam ferry across the Sound to Bridnt'iicu-t t:sic Tarrytown, Andre -was captured.

GREENWICH, the first town in Connecticut, 31 iiiii,..s northeast of New York, is becoming a favorite place of residence for New York business men. It is a place of historic interest. It was at Horseneck in this town where Gen. Putnam Is alleged to have es- caped from the Tories during the Revolution, by rid- ing his horse down a flight of stone steps. There are several summer hotels in the vicinity of Greenwich. STANFORD, a borough of 1,5,000 inhabitants, is a summer resort of considerable importance It has a line harbor, and considerable shipping. A daily line of steamers to New York is well patronized.

It has a green half a mile long, and, like Xcw Have.n, Norwich and some other Connecti- cut towns, prides itself on the elm shade trees which line its streets. It has a safe harbor for vessels of each of which contain lofty precipices about 400 feet high. East Rock park contains 360 acres. New Haven has several local summer resorts, that of Savin's Rock, on the Sound, and Sachem's Wood — a favorite boating place— being the most popular. The city is a large manufacturing centre.

A popular >teaml«iat line between this city and New York make- four liip> each day. BRANFORD, eight miles east of New Haven, has a good harbor, which admits vessels of 300 tons or less. It was at one time a commercial rival of New tm' q ?jif'. ,iS^?^»5Kr'::-=s:—'''--^i. . 20U tons and under, and it is possessed of some manu- factures. NEW HAVEN is the largest city in Connecticut and the third in size in New England, if we include tlie town portion. The population of the city in ISDO was 81,000 and of the whole town 86,000. Its citizens now claim that it has over 100,000. It is an interest- ing city in many waj'S. Its settlement dates from 1637. When the two colonies of Conneelieni .nel New Haven were united, it was made one .if the eapiial- nf the consolidated State, but the u.-^ele^s dual .s\ stem was abolished in 1875, Hartford being then made the sole capital. The loss, however, was of small conse- quence to New Haven, as its prosperity has continued uninterrupted. In Yale College the place possesses one of the oldest and most famous colleges in the country. New Haven is called the " Elm City " from the lofty elms which line it-< streets. Like Boston, its finest park — the Public ilreen — is in the centre of the city. It contains about sixteen acres, and is bordered on all sides by elms. Two comparatively recent addi- tions to the city's park area are East and West Rock, Haven. Brauford Point on the peninsula of Indian Neck is a favorite watering place with several hotels and many cottages. Stony Creek, at the south-east corner of this town is also a seaport and a popular watering jilace. A cluster of beautiful islands, called Thimble Islands, lie scattered along between this place anil Imliaii Xeek, and several hotels and cot- taces are built upon them. GUILFORD is a pretty borough, built around a finely sliaile.l public square. It has a fine harbor, and Guil- ford Point, a mile south of the borough, and Sachem's Head, three miles away, are favorite watering places, with many hotels and cottages. This town was the birthplace and residence of Fitz Greene Halleck, the poet, and the birthplace of Rev. W. II. 11. Murray, the noted author. OLD SAYBROOK, one of the oldest towns iu New England, lies on the Sound at the mouth of the Con- necticut river. A fort was built here in 1635 as a protection against the Indians and Dutch, and Yale College was founded iu this town in 1701. The shad fisheries of the town form an important industry.

Regular a s 1 : or \NSETT Steamers ply be- I ween New Lon- .lon and New York. The I rains of the Shore l^ine were formerly f e r- ried across the Thames here, but six years ago the river was spanned by one of the longest and finest railroad bridges in the country. The Brainerd & Armstrong Company, whose famous production in silks are known all over the civilized world, have their manufactory and headquarters in this city. It is the principal industry of New Lon- don. The firm produce every variety of silk thread — and make a specialty of a silk thread holder which prevents the silk from becoming soiled or tangled. Their wash silks can be found with all enterprising dealers throughout the country. A sample skein of any color, with blue book giving directions for em- broidering, will be sent to any address for three two- cent stamps. P. Freeman, pro- prietor, is a convenient house for commercial men. Saybrook Point and Fcnwick arc important summer resorts. EAST LYME village, in the town of the same name, and Niantic in the same town, attract consideral)le summer patronage. The latter, at the mouth of Nian- tic bay, aflbrds good fishing facilities, and has several summer hotels. Waterford, on the east side of that bay, is also a place of growing importance as a sum- mer resort. NEW LONDON.— The most important sea-port be- tween New Haven and Providence is New London. ^,, THE METROPOLITAN HOTEL It is one of the historic towns of New Englan - ■ ■ and has always held a leading position It is a pretty i;lty, many of its older streets being dceph shaded with elms. The harbor of New London i one of the best in the United States. It is thu miles long and thirty feet deep. Forts Tuirabull and Griswold on each side of the Thames defend ii from attack. A naval station has been establi^h( here, and, in case of a naval war, it would be an important rendezvous for our fleets. When i\ hale bone was a leading factor in society New I ondoi was largely engaged in the whale fishen It i still an important commercial point and isthehom port of many vessels engaged in the coTstm trade. After the decline of the whale trade foi many years New London ceased to giow, am. seemed a dead place, but it has recently taken new life and become again an energetic, thriving city.

It is pleasantly situated in the business district, is flrst-class iu all its appointments, is heated by steam, and is in every re- spect worthy the increasing patronage that it is re- ceiving. GROTON, across the river from New London, is an important town. A point of interest to tourists at this place is the remains of old Fort Griswold, where 157 militia under Col. Ledyard made a gallant, but unsuccessful defence against 800 British in 1781. After their surrender Ledyard was murdered by the British officer (a Tory) in command, and nearly all of the American captives were massacred. A monument has been erected to their memory, f lom the top of which a fine view of the surrounding country can be ob- tained. A large summer hotel, the Fort Griswold House, is located at themDoth of the Thames. Noank in this town is an Important ship-building place, and it has considerable summer patronage. MYSTIC AND WEST MYSTIC are quiet summer re- sorts. Fisher's Island, too, oft" the coast, has its snm- raer hotels and cottages. Steamers run between it and New Lomlun twice a day during the season. STONINGTON, the last town in Connecticut, is much resorted to during the summer months as a watering place. It has a capacious harbor, partly protected by a breakwater built by the National Government. Steamers of the Providence and Stonington Steam- ship Company run daily between this place and New York throughout the year, and during the winter (as the Providence steamers are withdrawn) the com- pany's passenger business is all done from this point. WESTERLY is the southern metropolis of Rhode Island. It is a smart manufacturing town of nearly 7,000 inhabitants, besides several thousand more, who live jast across the narrow Pawcatuck in Connecticut (Stonington), whose business center is Westerly. The principal industry of the place is granite quarrying and finishing, but it also does considerable textile manufacturing and has several large machine shops. WATCH HILL in Westerly, the south-western point in Rhode Island, is, after Newport and Narragansett Pier, the most popular shore resort in the state. The hill is covered with hotels and is surrounded by cot- tages. The elevation commands a magnificent view of the Atlantic Ocean, Block Island, Long Island, Fishers' Island, the Pawcatuck River, Little Narragansett Bay, and extensive landscapes both in Rhode Island and CONNECTICUT AND KHODE ISLAND SHORES Conuecticut. A light-house here holds its light sixty- two feet above tlie sea-level. From the base of the hill a long and narrow strip of laud extends directly west for more than a mile, and then runs north for about a mile, terminating in Sandy Point, and at the elbow the outer point is linown as Napatree, the whole lieing nothing more than a low sand-bar, shaped as has ofteu been said, lilvC a sickle. This natural break- water encloses Little Narragansett Bay, which is an almost circular body of water nine miles in circum- ference, into which the Pawcatuck River empties. On the south shore of the sandy breakwater is a su- perb beach, where the ^vater is calm and the bathing safe. An electric railway from Westerly will greatly add to the accessibility of tliis popular watering place this season. NARRAGANSETT PIER.— Due of the best Icnown and most fashionable summer resorts on the Atlantic coast is Narragansett Pier. It is situated in the town of South Kingstown, R. I., near the western entrance to Narragansett Bay, about ten miles across the water from Newport in a south-westerly direction and four or live miles north of that dread of mariners. Point Judith. This fashionable resort may be said to consist of two portions. Several years ago the statement was true that it was a settlement of great hotels. To-day the hotels are still here and have increased in number, while "cottages" similar to those at Newport have be- come proportionately more numerous, and to the south of the original section within the past few years, on situations overlooking tlie rocks, an extensive line of elegant and expensive residences have been built. The main portion of Narragansett Pier lies along the sliorc from the bathing l)each on the north, to the South Pier, and consists of about a score of largo hotels, a huudred or more cottages, four churches, the post-office, a few stores, and last, but not least, the Casino. The chief attraction at the Pier is the bathing beach which is situated just north of tlie hotels, and extends about a mile in a crescent-shaped curve until it reaches the mouth of the Pettaquamscutt River. It is gently inclined, is as level as a floor, and so packed down Ijy tlic beating of the waves as to be extremely smooth and liard. Between the promenade and the edge of tlie water, rows of tents are pitched, and these shelters from tlie sun are favorite places for the on-lookers. The fashionable hours are at midday, when the scene here presented, surpasses, in the multitude and char- acter of the bathers, any other resort in New England. At the southern end of the seaward row of hotels are the two wharves. The magnificent rocky coast begins a short distance south of the landing, and con- tinues all the way to Point .Judith, five miles distant. A path leads along the upper edge of these rocks. lu general they shelve down into the water; but many project boldly into the sea, and not a few rise in steep clifl's bidding deflauce to the waves. The two most distinctive masses of rock are known respectively as Indian and Sunset Rocks. This walk along the clifl's is a favorite resort of all residents and visitors, and since the building of the cottages, afibrds not only opportunity to observe the magnificent action of the sea on the rocks, but also to see the beautiful and well- kept estates. Leading out o£ Ocean avenue at the land- ing is the road to Point .Judith, built in 1882, which follows the coast all the way. For the first half or three-quarters of a mile are a score or more of villas, all but one or two between the highway and the sea. There are many beautiful drives in the vicinity. The river road leads northward through a charming and picturesque country, past Cauonchpt, famous in the annals of the house of Sprague. Eight miles up this road is the birthplace of Gilbert Stuart, the cele- brated artist. Other drives in the vicinity are to Point Judith light-house, two roads, one by the ocean, the other inland, five miles south; to Sonth Ferry, five miles north; to Lake Worden, six miles west; to Ivingston, (Little Rest), five miles west; to Matunuck Beach, eight miles west; to "Wakefield, two miles nortli-west; to Peacedale, three miles north-west. The Pier is reached by the Narragansett Pier Rail- road, which connects with the main line of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad at Kingston. During the summer the Herman S. Caswell plies be- tween the Pier and Newport. Another route to New- port is l3y the highway to Sontli Ferry, and thence by the two ferries and across Conauicut Island. The hotels at the Pier are numerous and commodi- ous, and guests are courteously treated and well served. That the Pier is rapidly becoming a formidalile rival to Newport as a cottage summer resort is evi- denced by the large number of more or less preten- tious residences which have been erected during the past few years Ijy those who, having been attracted by the natural beauties of the place, have wearied of life at the hotels and have sought the independence and retirement only to be found in a private residence. Many of these are monuments to the skill and taste of their designers, and notable among them is the newly built "cottage" of Mr. F. S. Kinney, a member of the noted firm of ICinney Brothers, of New York and Richmond, and the owner of the Albermarle Hotel, New York city. Mr. Kinney has for years been an admirer of, and visitor at, the Pier, and has for some time been look- ing for an eligible site for a summer residence, this culrainatiug last year in the purchase of the site of tlie Hotel Berwick, with about four acres of ground, at the corner of Ocean avenue and Congdon street, fronting directly upon the ocean and reaching back nearly halfway to the new railroad station. The house proper (a cut of which is shown here) has more the appearance of a palace than of the tradi- tional cottage, being 88x93 feet on the ground and four stories in height, and of a composite style of architecture, the upper part being of buft" brick in the colonial order, while the basement, pia/.za railing and pillars supporting the superstructure arc of granite, treated in the Florentine and Grecian styles, the effect of the whole being harmonious and pleaslug in the CONNECTICUT AND RHODE ISLAND SHORES. fiighest (learee The olli es consist ing of large stables at the rear of the grounds a n d beautifulh designed lodge at tht pi incipal enti ance are of brick and gianite lespectnelv the plans being by W W Howe of Now York and Willaid Kent of Narragansett Pier -nhile the con structure was intiusted to Norcross Brothels of Woicestei ■v\hose reputation as Inuldtis of claboiate residences hi \l ii 1 1 thi >n4houl the couiiii\ 111 III u 111 I thehini lirring in ih ii i ni) 1 \ iii aim\ ff sk lU'd ■\vuikmeu diiecttd fioni tin home ofli^e at Woicestei and fi m their branch oftices m \e^\ 1 il Providence Best n m 1 ( 1 \Uin 1 It is inteitstin_ t n tl 1 ^\llll the greatei pait t tl « il 1 tins firm has until irccnlly been m the '"' erection <>r piililir Imililings, anotable increase in tiic ilrmiuid for their services in the con- struction of private residences has appeared in recent years '• Kellogg Terrace" at Great 1.

The Solarium, which is a great plazed piazza, contains a wide, open Jowtf^ tTiLLHojE-L H tire-place. In summer the sashes can l)e removed and the Solarium then forms part of the front ve- randa. The house is kept open the entire year. Aj)- ply for circular to the proprietors, H. W. & N. K. Greene. THE TOWER HILL HOTEL In the southern part of Rhode Island overlooking the world-famed Narra- gansett Pier, from the summit of Tower Hill, is the famous Tower Hill Hotel, wliich, with the cottages adjoining, make tlie embryo village of Narragansett Heights, that owes so much of its reputation to the Ondawa Spring. Its location, ou the highest ground at Narragansett Pier, gives it many advantages; over- looking the waters of Long Island Sound, around Point Judith, and the finest views to be had of the yacht races on the coast. The hotel is 150 feet above and one- half mile distant from the sea; and looking oceanward one beholds as fine a view as ever the eye of mortal looked upon. The eye follows the ro- mantic, winding road around the hill, and finally rests ou Canonchet, the home of exGo\ernoi Spiagne and the iBind drifts into a re\ ei le as it lemembeis the bia\e chief foi i\hom Canonthet 'His nimtd IS « IS 1 I 1 W llll, 1 1 i;i.iit .us K, ii luht 1 s, to MtM , and tloiling s ,o by and smallei ciaft II iinmlKi are scatteied 111 1 t III 1 1 < ich seeminsi but 1 t IIS liiit a little ^\orld IK uhisi hearts havegone ;liL\o\ageis To the -west indscape is varied nntl ifnl A dri\e through the CONNECTICUT AND RHODE ISLAND SHORES. hills is attractive as ever a drive coviltl be ; ami bevond Narragansett Pier lies Point Judith. la the words of one of the guests at the hotel "each morning, when I stand upon the piazza ot the hotel, and gaze upon the landscape I see something beautiful that I have not seen before." But the view oceanward can never be described. Across the bay is a fine view of Newport and .lames- town. To the south, Block Island and the Clay Banks ; and as night throws its sable shadows over the face of nature, the lighl s flash out from the em- bryo city at our feet, and thirty lights of light-houses, light-boats, etc., gleam through the darkness. The Tower Hill Hotel gives us both mountain air and the delights of the seaside. A gentle breeze is ever blowing, and the fog that sometimes lies lower down, seems to answer our bidding to come thus far and no farther, while a drive of ten minutes brings us to the compact part of the pier and the casino, with its hops and germans, and all the festivity and excitement of a fashionable watering place. The Ondawa Spring water, the finest in the coun- try, is exclusively used at the hotel for all purposes. The Tower Hill Hotel has been re-opened for the season of 1895 under the management of Mr. C. H. Friday, who has leased the property for a terra of years and whose personal popularity insures a large patronage ; a further inducement to the public being the comparatively low rates of $3.00 per day, and $10 00 and upwards per week. Among the other amusements are a billiard room, bowling alley and shooting gallery ; also l)oating, gunning and fishing, as a beautiful sheet of water known as the Pettaquamscuit River (well-knowu In olden times as a, harbor for vessels engaged in the infamous slave trade, famous now for fishing and crabbin;;) lies below the hill. All guests for the house are reciuested to get oft' at Wakefield depot, as there will be conveyances there to convey them to the hotel. THE MASSASOIT HOUSE is one of the most desir- ably located hotels at Narragansett Pier. It stands on high ground and is within five minutes' walk from .1 iWHiJ ^■^iMIPJB-i 1 ■ 1 mmimmm r^^SP^EI^- run MaSS.VSOIT HoU.SE, NaRUAG.INSETT PlKU. the railroad station and two minutes' walk of the bathing beach. From its rooms and piazzas excel- lent views of the ocean are ol)tained; some of its rooms overlook the casino, while from the upper windows wide stretches of the beautiful Narragan- sett country may be seen. The house is four stories in height, and will accommodate 130 guests. It has 250 feet length of piazzas, and is provided with wrought iron fire escapes. The house is provided with the Graves hydraulic passenger elevator, and is lighted throughout by electricity, has electric bells iu every room, and is provided with hot and cold water baths. The drainage and sanitary arrangements are of the best. The sleeping rooms are large and ar- ranged for comfort, with wide airy halls, and the table is provided with the best the market afl'ords. The house has the reputation of being a well-kept summer home. It is under the management of John Babcock, who has looked after the comfort of its guests for the past fourteen years. There are five daily mails, telephone in the house, and telegraphic connection near at hand with all points. The terms are reasonal)le. Applications are promptly responded to by Mr. Joliu Babcock, superintendent. ■» THE PETTAQUAMSCUTT HOUSE is pk-asantly located on the Pettaiiuamscutt river, and commands unsur- passed views of Narragansett Pier, the broad Atlantic, and the surrounding country. This stream, which affords plenty of fishing and boating, is better known as Narrow river. It is an arm of the sea, and Its winding course gives to the House a delightful sea breeze from every point. The House is directly north from the Pier and about ten minutes' walk from the Beach. It is situated on a large farm, in an elevated situation, has the attractions of the country and sea- shore combined, and is a most delightful place for families to spend the summer. There are large grounds to roam over, and an orchard beside the House fur- nishes plenty of shade, and those seeking rest and recreation will here be satisfied. The House is nicely furnished throughout, has electric lights, hot and cold baths, and is connected by telephone. The sanitation is perfect. Over sixty guests can be accommodated.

Its commodious rooms, which will accommodate from forty to fifty people, are furnished in comfortable style, with modern conveniences, aud the proprietor, Mr. James E. Rose, devotes his personal attention to the comfort of his guests. Owing to the elevation of the site, an enjoyable breeze prevails on the hottest days. The terms, which are moderate, will l)e furnislied on application. THE STEAMER GEO. W. DANIELSON, under com- mand of Capt. Geo. W. Conley, makes daily trips, excepting Sundays, from Newport to the Island. THE PALATINE LIGHT The island was formerly the scene of many ship-wrecks, and many are the weird stories of wreclvers that have been given a " local habitation and a name." The most famous of these legends is that of tlie Palatine Light, said to be a phantom ship, but proliably some irradiation that passes over the surface of the deep. -,;§«,i CONxNKCTlCUT AM) KllODK ISLAND SIKJKES. THE EUREKA HOTEL is one of the newest and best appointed lionses on the island and has, from its ex- ceptionally favored location on the high ground over- looking the harbor and the high class of its service, already become one of the most popular hotels on the island. SPRING HOUSE.— On the crest of a grass-covered eminence, facing the sea and overlooking the harbor, the village, Long Island Sound and the mouth of Narragansett Bay, is the well-known Spring House, one of the largest and best hotels on the New England coast. The buildings, accommodating 400 guests, consists of the main hotel and the annex. The annex is situated only a few feet from the main house. Its rooms are models of convenience, and arc always much desired by those guests who wish very quiet and comfort- ^Hi LliuvvHi able apartments. A first- class livery staljle is maintained, and careful and intel- ligent drivers, well acquainted with the island and its striking features, can at any time be secured. Every facility is afforded for sailing, and for fresh and salt water fishing. The springs, from which the house takes its name, are in the hotel grounds. They furnish a clear, sparkling, cool water of high medicinal value, but without any disagreeable taste or color. The hotel grounds, consisting of twenty-five acres of lawn, af- ford unapproachable advantages as fields for athletic exercise and playgrounds for children. There is ample room for liall-playing and tenuis without en- croaching on the right of others. An orchestra of unusual merit furnishes early afternoon and evening concerts with all the new and popular music of the day. The cuisine is under the control of an experi- enced chef and the tables will be furnished with every variety of sea-food, notably blueflsh and sworil- fish, bass and lobster; fresh milk, vegetables and poultry from the island farms ; and meats and fruits from New York and Providence marts. An excellent laundry is connected with the hotel. Work will be done quickly and satis- factorily at reasonable prices. Spring House carriages will be at the landing on arrival of all steamers at Block Island. HISTORICAL.-Block sland was first brought to the notice of the New- England settlers l)y the l5i()iK Isi vsn murderof Captain John Oldham and his com- panions in Ifi.iG l)y its savage inhabitants. On that account expeditions were fitted out from Boston by which the Indian inhabitants were punished and sub- dued, and the island then became the possession of Massachusetts, but was afterwards sold to private parties by the colony, and finally, in 167?, was duly incorporated as a lihode Island town, and w-as named New Shoreham. The island name perpetuates the memory of Adrian Block, an old Dutch navigator, who visited it in 1614. Verazzano, the Florentine navi- gator and explorer, saw it in 1524.

THE WOONSOCKET HOUSE.— This house has always Ijeen one of the most popular of Block Island hotels, and increasing business has compelled the erection of a new and larger building, on high ground adjoining the original house, and to judge from present indica- tions, further additions will l)e necessary in the near future. The proprietor, Mr. A. J. Rose, gives his personal atten- tion to the en- tertainment of his guests and this, with the superb table, supplied with delicacies just from the ocean and the hotel farm ; the cool and well-ven- lilated ronms, wpacious halls and piazzas and private iKithing beach, with bathing houses within less than fiM' minutes' easy Tin: ('cinmc ik ir 11 walk, all eon- tribute to make the Woonsocket a perfect summer home.

C as it is by green fields and pastures, and while only a pleasant walk from the landing and post-ollice, is suf- ficiently removed, to be entirely free from the noise and dust. Carriages are in waiting for the guests at the landing on arrival of the boats, and are at their service for drives about the island — than which none could be more pleasant or picturesque. The bathitrg beach is hut a short distance from the house and complete facilities for picnic and fish- ing parties are provided. The manager, Mr. E H.Day, son of the late pro- prietor, de- votes himself entirely to the comfort and ]ileasure of his guests, and by Ills long expe- himself much endeared to the guests of the house, as Is shown by their return to enjoy its hospitality on each succes- sive season The house has accommodations for about eighty guests, and so high is its reputation, that CONNECTICUT AND RHODE ISLAND SHORES. its rooms are usually filled early in the season, and tlie society to be met in its parlors is always unexcep- tionable. For terms, which are comparatively very reasonable, address the manager. THE SURF HOTEL — This hotel, so long and fa- vorably known as Surf Cottage, is under the personal management of Mrs. C. W. Willis, and maintains the popularity which it acquired during the life of Mr. Willis. Its finely furnished sleeping rooms, elegant parlors, halls and corridors, perfect toilet facilities on every floor, together with an une-xcel'eil tible and service, have contributed lo tlie conifurt and pleasuic of guests from nearly every state in the union, while the fact that the bathing bca'-Ii, witli private bath houses supplied with fresh and sea water, is within fifty feet of the house, makes it a paradise to all who enjoy sea bathing. Steps descend directly from thi- veranda to the beach, and guests can don their bath- ing suits in the privacy of their own apartments. A view of the Atlantic may !»• liad from the windows of every room. Fresh \ .-rtalilus, milk, Imtter and eggs are furnished daily Imn] the farms on the island, while the fish and lobsters are taken directly from the ocean. The rates, either for the season or for tran- sient accommodation, arc very reasonable, and will be furnished on application. Near the geographical centre of the island and about a mile and a half by road westward from the harbor is "The Centre," a cross-road with a few houses, a church, school, and the town honsc, a plain wooden building, which also ciintains the " Island Library." The road to llic Ciuln- leads through pleasant farms, several of wlnrli lia\.- cMonsive orchards. Excellent views of till' islanil's laiulscape are had, the whole surface Ijcing dotted with dweUin;;s, so that there are really no desolaie regions. Near the Centre are two quaint old windmills. Previous to the building of the breakwater visitors to the island had to come ashore in small boats tliiongh tlie surf. The native Block Islanders were formerly very expert boatmen, as they had to navi- gate their boats through the surf every time tUey en- tered or left the water, and they developed a type of boat specially adapted to this trying service. This boat was small and light, sharp at both ends, and of a pecnliar shape. SPECIAL TRIPS TO BLOCK ISLAND.— A fine sail can be had through Narranansett Bay and out to sea by taking a steamer of the Fall River and Providence Line at 9 a. m. on Tuesday or Saturday, reaching the island about noon in time for dinner, and returning at 8 p. m., and getting back to the dock about 7. For a fine day's onting this is one of the best. f .^■ ^^^^w^t^m^ -m^ NEWPORT AND NARRAGANSETT BAY. Daniel Watson, Established 1875. ^<.EAi;, Estate Ag^dt Newport and Jamestown Property a Specialty.

Situ- ^^Bi^ ated at the southern end of the beauti- ful island of Rhode Island, the city is at the mouth of Narragansett Bay and enjoys the benefit of the sea breezes, while be- ins at the same time protected by the neighboring- masses of land from their severity and strength. Cool and sheltered, the proud summer city overlooks the bay and the sea. As a result of the situation the climate is peculiarly equable and soft at all seasons of the year. Newport harbor has been famous since the dis- covery of the American continent. Nowhere on the Atlantic coast can a better one be found. The territory of Newport comprises the southern portiou of the island of Rhode Island, forming an elbow-shaped peninsula of an average width of about two miles, the harbor being on the inside. The city is really divided into two parts. All that section near the wharves and for some distance baclc, is the old and historic Newport, and is the seat of the business of the city. Here are still to be seen many old houses with gambrel roofs or projecting eaves, built previous to the Revolution, and most of them have interesting histories of old colonial days. NEWPORT AND NARRAGANSETT BAY Lying to the east and soutli of the older portion, on the ridge of the peninsula, on all the intersecting avenues, and all along the bold, picturesque coast, are palatial mansions known by the unpretentious name of " cottages," but in reality many of them pal- aces, rich in treasures of wealth and taste, and fitted up with all imaginable luxury. They are embowered in trees and are surrounded with pleasant lawns, some perched on the edge of cliffs, overlooking the water, and nearly all within sight and hearing of the ever restless ocean . Until about 1830, Newport was a very quiet town, distinguished in no marked degree from other New England seaports. People of means and leisure began to discover the advantages of the place about this time, and soon all available accommodations were required by the summer visitors who flocked from every section of the country. Large hotels were erected, the place being for many years chiefly a hotel resort, but little by little, through the establish- which is the Old Stone Mill, Newport's chief his- torical attraction. From Touro Park, for a distance of about an eighth of a mile, the avenue on both sides is lined with summer stores and a few hotels and restaurants. Here is the Casino, the chief of Newport summer in- stitutions. In the grounds, at the rear, are a theatre, a tennis court building and an extensive bowling alley. Bellevue avenue is a continuation of Touro street, and runs from Kay street to Bailey's Beach for two and a quarter miles in an almost straight line along the summit of the ridge of the peninsula. For the whole distance it is lined on both sides with the most ele- gant residences in the city. It is the principal promenade and drive of the fashionable society in the season, and on it at the regulation hour may be seen such a display of style and fashion, of wealth, ele- gance and beauty, as no watering place in the country can outrival. The grand drive in Newport is around Ocean ave- A PuLo Gkuut — Newi'ukt. n Photograph Copyrighted by Chillis, New] ing of summer homes and the building of elaborate cottages, the transient and ephemeral features inci- dent to hotel life were eliminated, and the place rap- idly developed into the centre of " society " that it has been and is to-day. Besides its attractions of ocean scenery, climate, beaches, drives and the life and movement of society, Newport has many objects of Interest to the sight-seer, or the visitors, whether for a day or a longer period. The most noticeable are Washington square, on Thames street; the City Hall, built in 1763; the State House, erected in 1741, where the May sessions of the Rhode Island Legis- ature are held and the State orticers installed inoftlce; a statue of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry, com- memorating his great victory on Lake Erie, in the war of 1812; the Jewish Synagogue on Touro street, and used as a place of worship until the Revolution : the Newport Historical Society's building, the Jew- ish Cemetery, corner of Kay and Touro streets; the Redwood Library, which was incorporated in 1747; Tonro Park, a large open space in the centre of nue, sometimes called the ten-mile drive, from the fact that the circuit from Washington square and return is between ten and eleven miles. Starting from Washington square the first portion of this drive is up Touro street and along the fashionable Bellevue avenue. From Bailey's Beach the road follows the indentations of the shore, aftbrding magnificent views of the rocky coast. In arranging the drive it is an easy matter to get a driver who can point out the difierent resideuces and places of interest. On the re- turn half of the circuit, very fine views of the city, the ocean and harbor are obtained. Other drives to the northward, along either shore of the island, through beautiful scenery, past historic places, will amply repay the cost of time and money. Two miles across the city from the steamboat landing is Easton's Beach, one of the chief attrac- tions of Newport. The beach is at the head of an inlet open to the ocean from the south, on which account there is always a good surf. It is smooth, wide and level, formed of fine, hard sand, and is NEWPORT AND NAKRAGANSETT BAY. nearly a mile in extent, in a straight line. On the west side of Easton's Beach the shore is faced with cliffs of broken, jagged rocks, twenty or more feet in height, which extend all the way round to Bailey's Beach, and the residences on Ochre Point, and on the east side of the lower part of Bellevue avenue are nearly all so situated as to overlook the clitt's. For all this distance, about three miles, a graded path, known as the "Clift'Walk," leads along the edge, af- fording magnificent views of the ocean on the one hand, and on the other, the linest views of the gardens little sheltered cove hemmed in l)y rugged rocks on either side. From here the graded Clitt' Walk starts, the other terminus being at Easton"s Beach on the Bath road. Not the least of the attractions of Newport are the short excursions that can be made to points in and about the harbor. You can go to Fort Adams, to the U. S. Training Ship, to .Jamestown, and if you have audacity and influence, to the Torpedo Station. Fort Adams, one of the strongest fortifications in the country, guards the entrance to the harbor between From Photograph Copyrighted by Childs, and homes of the summer residents to be had in New- port. Beyond Easton's Beach, and separated from it by the peninsula of Easton's Point, is Sachuset Beach, which is much larger than Easton's, but not so safe. ( )u the east side of the peninsula and fronting on Sachuset Beach is a deep, yawning crevice In the face of the clirt', leo feet long, eight to fourteen feet wide and fifty feet in depth. The sea flows into it at the bottom of the cliffs. It is known as Purgatory, and there are various interesting legends in connection with it. Bailey's Beach is situated at the enti of the L-like terminus of Bellevue avenue, and is the shore of a Newport and Conanicut Island. You can drive there, a distance of between three and four miles, or if you have friends or acquaintances in the fort, you will be allowed to go over in the government tug 'boat, the distance across the harbor being less than a mile. The finest harlior excursion is over to Jamestown, on Conanicut Island, by the steam ferry boat, a dis- tance of about two miles, passing on the way Goat Island, the Torpedo Station, Rose Island, and obtain- ing fine views of the beautiful harbor and island. There are three routes to reach Newport from Providence and two from New York. From Provi- dence you can go by the Old Colony Railroad via Warren and Fall River, the railroad skirting the NEWPORT AND NARRAGANSETT BAY. shores of the Bay for a large portion of the whole dis- tance and affording many pleasant and some grand views ; the popular way in summer is by the Bay steamers, from whose decks the shores and islands of the beautiful Narragansett please the senses with their ever-varying panorama; the third route is Ijy the Xew York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad via Wickford, connecting at Wickford landing with a steamer which, after an hour's sail across the Bay, lands t'.ie traveler in Newport. The chief route from New York is by the Old Colony steamboat line, but the Shore Line to Wickford is also patronized by many on account of being nearly an all-rail route.

There are, in Newport, several firms of excellent and trustworthy Real Estate agents, who have their offices at the business end of Bellevue avenue. Without being invidious, we found it necessary to obtain from some one reliable person such a brief outline as might serve our readers as a reliable guide. On inquiring in various quarters from bankers, influ- ential residents, and the city store-keepers, we were very generally referred to Mr. A. (I'D. Taylor, real estate agent, 124 Bellevue avenue, as a gentleman Thk Marhii I'ai.j Ni-.wroirr — The VAXDEnniLr Hksidenck. From Boston the main line of the Old Colony, run- ning through Fall River, terminates at Newport. REAL ESTATE IN NEWPORT.— The field of real estate in Newport is one of great importance, as special districts are being gradually absorbed by sum- mer-visitors, who become developed into summer resi- dents by the charms of the island, by the equable temperature, and balmy air. This fact has, in the past, enhanced, in a special way, those properties fringing the "Cliffs" on the eastern side of the island, and most of the places on the fashional)le Bellevue avenue. The southern part of the island, called the '-Rocky Farm" district, seems destined to be the favorite for the wealthiest class — the ff>mons whose sound judgment, integrity and energy had placed him in the very first rank in Newport, as a reference. We have therefore obtained from Mr. Taylor the following short summary : As regards furnished cottages for the summer season (which means June to September inclusive), pleasant cottages can be had from .$300 to .$C00, but not many under S-400 to .$500. From $700 to $1,000, excellent; and from .$1,250 to .$2,500, houses with stables, grounds, etc., can be obtained — plenty of them; $3,000 to $7,000 represents the most luxurious class. It is a great mistake to suppose Newport is an ex- pensive place in summev rents. It is not so, it is NEAVPORT AND NARRAGANSETT BAY much cheaper than rt-sorts near New York and Boston. Unfurnished houses by the year, are obtainable from .8300, or $350 to $700. Furnished houses, all the year round, are cheaper in proportion than sum- mer fjuarters. Can be had at $600 to $1,200 a year. .\s for land suitable for building sites, the northern part, the Broadway direction, is the favorite district for the middle class residents of Newport. The dis- trict known as the '• Hill," lying east of Kay street and Bellevue avenue, towards Gil)bs avenue and the hrst bathing beach, is more occupied by families living quietly and out of active business relations. As regards"! stores, Thames street is the principal business street, all the year round, and Bellevue ave- nue, from King's blocks to Hartmann's Hotel, is the summer range for shops. Rent of stores on Thames street, $400 to $1,000, and on Bellevue avenue, an av- erage of .$.500 — range $300 to 81.250. There are, no doubt, certain localities where money can 1)0 made by buying land, with a view to the future, but they can only l)e ascertained l)y skilful selections and by a buyer consulting an agent. Toucliing farms, some people like cows, fresh children — a decidedly simpler life than that afforded by the Casino, balls, dinner-parties, and drives in carriages. The contiguous counties of Middletown and Portsmouth oft'er such farms at from $15ii to .$250 an acre, with residences. From $5,000 to $7,500 will buy several charming rural places In the country, within four miles from Newport. Some splendid farms to be had at $14,000 to $20,000. But those who come to Newport are more likely to be men of consideraltle means, desirous of selecting quarters which will suit their families as summer residence.^ amongst tho fashionable world, year after year. ^ For this class there is a wide range of selection. They can purchase very nice, snug estates for $10,000, $12,000 and $15,000; most beautiful ones at from $20,000 to $35,000, according to size of mansion stables and grounds More amljitious estates, especially some on the sea, run from $100,000 to a quarter of a million — all purses can be suited at Newport. We have fur- tlier learned that the usual rate for real estate taxation is one per cent., and the percentage on mortgage money varies from five to six per cent, in Newport. Investors who \il like first mortgaiges at these rates, V ^ t !i''e said to do a very large business in these securities through Mr. A. j.j Ol). Taylor, whose opinion on values Jjt of real estate is constantly sought Ijy n law courts and trust companies. JXt ^ THE UNITED STATES HOTEL, New- port, .Joseph F. Parsons, proprietor is I I almost as well known to the travel- J ' ing puljlic as the city itself, situated ' ' on the corner of Thames and Pelham streets only a minutes' walk from Commercial wharf, the landing place of the steamers from Providence and IJloek Island, as well as the boats of tile Wickford line connecting several times daily with the trains of the N.

Boston, via Fall River, are eacli but a few minutes' easy walk from the Hotel, from which a free carriage meets all the boats and trains. During the many years since the United States hotel was flrst opened for the accommodation of the public, the changes in the proprietorship have Ijeen remark- :il)le few, and the present landlord, Mr. Joseph F.

The cuisine and service of the dining room leave nothing to be desired, while the rates are as low as those of any flrst-class house. Mr. Parsons personally at- tends to the details of the management, and that it is satisfactory to the traveling public is evident from the constantly increasing busi- ness, of the house. JAMESTOWN. — On tb, Island of Conanicut, oppositi Newport to the westward ami about two and a half miU ^ distant across the main tu trance to Narragansett Ba\ is the newer summer resoi i of Jamestown. The plate contains a number of hotels and more than a hundred houses, chiefly summer resi- dences after the Newport style. The place was originally a small village of native residents, rtshermen and farmers, but their modest homes have been over- shadowed and absorbed by the new comers. The new residences and hotels are sprinkled over a gently sloping hillside that overlooks Newport, its harbor and the entrance to the Bay. The Newport and Jamestown Steam Ferry and Navigation Company runs a steam ferry boat from the west side of Conanicut Islaud to Narragansett on the shores of the town of South Kingstown, connecting across Conanicut Island with the Jamestown ferry, the distance overland being only about a mile. By this means, opportunity is afl'orded to drive from New- port to Narragansett Pier, the route including five miles of travel by water and six by land, and it would be difficult to And a more enjoyable journey. Drags connect the two ferries. Iv ^ 1 ^ TK ^ ??7'.v fk •*>. "^ 'g^ s a ^m^ -f^ The Bay Vovaiik Hoisk. Jamkstow The Gardxkr Hou.sk, Jamestown.

Con- nected with tlie house is a tine stable where carriages can be secured at any time. The hotel has fifty large rooms, is fitted with the best of plumbing, has gas, furnace heat, and open fires. The dining room is an elegant and commodious apartment. The " Bay Voy- age " has an unique history. It was originally a coun- try house on Middletown Highlands, but several years ago it was moved down to the shore and floated across the bay to its present location. From this circum- stance it received its name. The house is now fitted up in modern style, the furnishings are new, and everything is first-class. The rate is $2.50 per day. The hotel is now under the management of Mr. Dan- iels, formerly of the Perry house, Newport.

THE ISLANDS of Narragansett Bay deserve a pass- ing mention. The largest is Rhode Island, which lies along the eastern side of the main portion of the Bay. It has many fertile farms and beautiful estates, and contains the towns of Portsmouth and Middle- town and the city of Newport. The next in size is Conanlcut, already noticed. Almost in the middle of the Bay is Prudence Island, the third in size, which was once owned Ijy Roger Williams, who was the first man to till its soil. It is six miles long and very irregular in shape. Near the centre of the island is NEWPORT AND NARRAG-ANSETT BAY. Prudence Park, a summer residence resort, where the Newport steamers stop daily during the summer. SEACONNET POINT.— The extremity of the territory of the State of Rhode Island at the eastern entrance into Narragansett Bay is Seaconnet Point, a peninsula or neck much indented by coves and protected by rocky headlands. Within the past few years a score or more of fine summer residences have been erected here, and there is a good hotel, the Sakonnet, over- looking the mouth of the Bay. The Point Is reached by the steamers .\washonks and Queen City of the Seaconnet Steamboat Co. WICKFORD.— About twelve miles northward from Narragansett Pier, and twenty from Providence, is the pleasant village of Wickford, on a small bay of the same name. The Wickford Branch Railroad con- nects with the New York, New Haven and Hartford line at AVickford Junction, and with Newport by l)oat from Wickford. Saunders- town and Narragansett are small villages on the coast below Wickford. THE NARRAGANSETT HOUSE is on the main street of the village of Wickford. Its location is central and the advantages of the vicin- ity, either of shores or waters, are within easy reach. The house was built over 1.50 years ago. and is the oldest in the town. For many years it was a wayside tavern, but .")4 years ago when the rail- road was built, it was con- verted into a hotel. Not- withstanding the age of the house the proprietor, \. E. Congdon, keeps up with the times and furnishes good board and accommodations at moderate prices. An addition to the house was built this season to accom- modate the constantly increasing number of guests that avail themselves of the hospitality of the old sea- side hotel every summer. WICKFORD HOUSE is a good hotel centrally located, about a quarter of a mile from the depot. First-class board is furnished either by the day or week, and the house has ample accommodations for permanent and transient guests. Tliere is a stable adjoining the house where horses are boarded and carriages may be hired. EAST GREENWICH.— On a steep hillside, facing east- ward along the shores of Greenwich Bay, is the vil- lage of East Greenwich, the county seat of Kent county. The New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad runs along between the base of the hill and the shore, and the traveler in a passing train has thereby a panoramic view of the entire surroundings. Many of the dwellings here on the slope of the hill are attractive residences, the homes of people doing business in Providence, as the town is only fourteen miles distant from the city. Greenwich Bay is the best fishing ground for scallops on Narragansett Bay, clams and quahaugs are plentiful on its shores, and the oyster is also found in its waters. THE BUTTONWOODS.— The south coast of Green- wich Bay is a long stretch of sandy shore known as the "' Buttonwoods," and famous in local annals for generations as a great clam-digging resort. The " Buttonwoods Beach Association," in 1871, purchased a large tract of land at the east end of this beach, erected a hotel, and platted the land for cottage lots, and since then a large number of tasteful cottages have been erected, forming one of the most beautiful IK STr..\JIF.l! " GeXKKAL," of TIIK WI' residence resorts on the bay. The tine beach is over a mile in length and affords facilities for bathing, boating and Ashing equal to any other place on the bay. East Greenwich lies in view to the west two or three miles distant diagonally across the bay ; Rocky Point lies about the same distance away to the east- ward, but on the other side of Warwick Neck, while Oakland Beach is only half a mile away. Button- woods is the terminus of the Warwick and Oakland Beach Railroad. The Buttonwoods Beach Hotel, a pleasant summer hotel of fifty rooms, has been conducted for the last nine years by Mr. Thomas II. Lyman, proprietor of the "Lyman," Franklin St., Providence. This is a very popular family hotel and has a reputation second to none on the Bay. Frequent trains over the Oak- land Beach Branch of the N. Y., N. H. & Hartford Railroad connect Buttonwoods with Providence. OAKLAND BEACH.— For some years past this has Ijeen one of the most noted popular excursion resorts XE\\'POKT AND NAKRAGANSETT BAY oil the bay, but withm the past two years it has become :i place of summer residence. It is located on the southern extremity of the I peninsula of Horse Neck, fronting on Greenwicli 'Bay and just east of Button- woods. The grounds are extensive and there are tine bathing facilities. ROCKY POINT.— The visitors to Rhode Island or its environs, as well as residents of the vicinity, who fail to pay a visit to Rocky Point will have missed one of the most pleasurable events of a summer's outing. No place in New England is wider or more favorably known than this historic resort with a record of thirty years to back it : it has always been recognized as the popular place for the respectable element to -•Vmong the prominent attractions offered for public approval at Rocky Point are the two theaters, where continuous performances of vaudeville and minstrelsy are given daily by two companies of talented and capable artists. The theaters are cool, breezy and inviting, and the programmes always excellently arranged. Among the out-door amusements are the Ferris wheel and haunted swings, two devices new this season ami erected as companion features to the well known Rus- sian Toboggan and gigantic merry-go-round. There is a commodious ball-room at Rocky Point, with removable side walls, where one may trip the light fantastic amid cooling lireezes to the excellent VMS Park, Providence— The Dyer Memorial hold their excursions, picnics, etc. Nature has dealt lavishly with the " Point." Scenically beautiful as well as shady and cool, one enjoys the effects of country and marine surroundings, with the exterior Narragansett Bay one side, and picturesque forest in- termingled with groves, caves and shady nooks on the other, there is a variety of scenery sufficient to satisfy the wants of anyone, no matter what the I)ent of their inclinations. In addition to Nature's bounteous bestowal, artiiice has been brought prominently into play year after year, and never have pains or expense been spared less, than since the advent of Mr. 11. A. Harrington as manager of this favorite spot, some tlve years since. Bright in uniijue ideas, generous in catering for public patronage, with a quick perception of the public's desires, surely no man is better fitted to handle the thousands of intricacies attached to such an enormous establislmuiit. music of Fairman's orchestra. That veteran of vio- linists, Mr. Frank Vaughn, is the leader and prompter of the orchestra and Mr. Wm. Green is the tloor manager. Concerts ai-e given daily by well-known musical organizations. There is an extensive and well-kept game ground where base-ball is played by amateur and professional teams, and where visiting societies hold their games and sports. A new feature this season is the paddock and race track, where those interested in horses will find much to hold their attention. The dinners at Rocky Point have always been esteemed for their excellent (piality, but this season finds them much improved. Mr. .1. E. Hurst, a gentleman of long experience in that di- rection, gives his entire attention to the preparation and serving of the dinners, and those furnished so far show the excellent judgment of Manager Harrington NEWPORT AND NARRAGANSETT BAY iu placing theii' direction in Mr. Hurst's capaljle liands. One miglit write interminably of tlie points of in- terest of this beautiful spot. So, in conclusion, we can only say, go and be convinced. OLD BUTTONWOODS HOUSE.— This house has been opened for the season under the management of 1). A. Clark, Jr., who will continue the same liberal policy which has made the house so popular iu previous seasons. The splendid location and superior l)athing facilities which may be enjoyed on Green- wich Bay render this a particularly desirable place to spenil a summer vacation. EAST PROVIDENCE.— Across the Seekonk Kiver from Providence, is the town of East Providence, wliich extends to Bullock's Point, six miles from the city. The compact place formerly called Watche- nioket. but now distinctively known as East Provi- dence, is the nearest suburb of Providence, lying within a mile of Market Square, the centre of the city. It is connected with the latter l}y two draw- Ijridges. It is an important residence suburb of the city, has largely increased in size and population since tlie completion of the new Washington Bridge and the estahlislimeni of the horse carMine in 1S8?,. and is tlie Wami Westminstkk Street BRISTOL. — On a peninsula just north of the island of Hhoile Island, on the east side of the Ijay and sep- arating Narragansett from Mount Hope Bay, is the town of Bristol, one of the most beautiful places, not only in Rhode Island, 1)ut in New England. The Rhode Island Soldiers' and Sailors' Home is situated in Bristol, overlooking Mount Hope Bay. WARREN Warren is a pleasant place of alxmt four thousand iuhal)itauts. situated on the Warren Kiver. an inlet on the east side of Narragansett Hay. BARRINGTON Tlie territory on the east side of the bay. cxtcniliii- from Bullock's Point to Rumstick Point, at the mouth of the Warren River is the de- lightful residence town of Barringtou. The most important ;;lace in Barrlngton is Nayatt Point, a headland forty or fifty feet above the water, where tliere are many tine villas, the residences of wealthy people. lar resorts on the bay are on the shores of East Provi- dence. From Providence harbor the whole shore is a succession of hi-li blufi's, alternating with coves, headlands and roeky islands, with sandy beaches at the foot of the blutfs and throughout the whole extent is occupied by summer cottages, boarding houses and hotels, perched in advantageous situations. The War- ren and Bristol Railroad skirts the shore until some distance beyond Silver Spring, and has a station there and at Riverside. Every point is also reached by an electric line from the city, which runs i\(iy ten minute^ during the busy season. The ii-^oit^ slioii^ an Squantum (club). Silver Sprin-. I'mnham cliil. i.

SILVER SPRING.— By this euphonious title was the next place on the eastern shore christened by Hiram .Maxfield when he first set up there as a shore caterer in 1860, and gave it a popularity as a first-class shore resort which it has ever since sustained. For quiet family parties, who desire more privacy than can be obtained at some of the other popular resorts. Silver Spring is particularly well adapted, and receives a great deal of this class of patronage. Many of the quieter class of excursion parties also make this their objective point, on account of its excellent character and beautiful situation and surroundings. This popu- lar resort will be controlled this season by Charles F. Maxfield — son of Hiram — who will maintain the repu- tation made for it by his fatlier. The Warren and Bristol Division of the Old Colony Railroad runs along shore between the overhanging bluft's and Silver Spring, and has a station here which accommodates the neighborhood. The shore steamers all stop at Silver Spring. The name of MaxHehl has been connected with the shore industry ever since it became an institution. Hiram Maxfield was stylnt the Kiiiii- of shore caterers. At liis deatli lu; was alil\ xm ( icdi'd by his son, Charles F. Maxfield, whu cmidiKtrd Mlver Spring and also Oakland Beach, a resort on the west side of Narragan- sett Bay. For several years previous to 1.S94. Mr. C. T. Maxfield, or " Prince " Cliarles, as he is called, had charge of the shore dinner business at Glen Island, N. Y. He has this year returned to Rhode Island soil, and having leased Silver Spring for the next five years, patrons of that resort may be assured of an excellent shore dinner gotten up in the regular Maxfield style. RIVERSIDE.— .lust beyond the Pomham Club House the blutt' along shore is crow^ned with summer resi- dences extending from the steamboat landing for half a mile or more, forming the largest summer resort near Providence. This is Riverside, formerly known as Cedar Grove. This place was fitted up for a pub- lic resort about 18(!7. Tents and cheap tasteful cot- tages then lined the shores, but of late years tliese have been replaced with a substantial class of houses, and at present several Imndred families make this then- permanent residence. Riverside is now a rapidly grow- ing and thriving community, with churches, schools, libraries, and other permanent facilities. The Warren and Bristol Division of the Old Colony Railroad lias a station here, and there is a commodious landing for BULLOCK'S POINT AND CRESCENT PARK. Alx.ut two miles south of Riverside landing on the east shore, is Bullock's Point, a fine, airy, tree-covered peninsular. A long, narrow wharf leads out into the bay from the higli bluffs of the peninsula about half or three-quarters of a mile from the extremity of the point, and on shore here is the most popular local re- sort on Narragansett Bay. This resort has been in- creasing in popularity for a number of years, because of its natural advantages, as on the grounds is a large and beautiful grove of pine trees, the elevation of the bluft" aft'ording charming views of the bay and the opposite shores, and there is an excellent bathing beach. Until 1891, the geographical name of the peninsular has been applied to the resort, but since then it has been called Crescent Park. This latter name was originally applied to a resort started in 188(i in the rear of Bullock's Point, and about three min- utes' walk from the landing over the head of the peninsula. The term Bullock's Point still applies to the cottage settlement, and that extends from the hotel to the end of the Point, and which is a rapidly growing community. A commodious hotel is situated on the high ground overlooking the landing. At tlie original Crescent Park are the Iniildings where clam Crystal Lake, Roger Williams Park. NEAVPOET AND NARKAGANSETT BAY. Baby RO(;kr,' iliiinurs are served, which are probably as commodious as any on tlie bay. and here is a dance hall and other means of amusement.

A fine new State House is about to be erected, and a big union railroad station house, accessible to the business centre of the city, is being built. The city has several fine churches and school buildings. It is the seat of Brown University, of the Friends' School, and of other important educa- tional institutions, both of a general and special char- acter. It has a valuable pnl)llc and other free libra- ries, and a number of hospitals, '■ liomes " and other charitable institutions. During recent years Providence has paid special at- tention to its public grounds. Roger Williams Park, at the southeast extremity of the city, acquired partly by gift and partly by purchase, now' contains about 400 acres, including the pond area. It is handsomely laid out. and is being beautified year by year. Its ponds affording boating in the summer and skating in the winter, are a special attraction. The city has a zoological collection at this park, which is receiving additions each year, aud has already arrived at re- spectable proportions. Blackstone Park, on the east side, Is another large park, which will ultimately rival Roger WiUiams Park in attractions. It borders the banks of the Seekonk river. Davis Park, in the Tenth Ward, contains thirty four acres, has attractive natural features, and will receive the attention of the landscape gardener in the near future. Dexter Training Grounds, nine acres in extent, near the heart of the city is an important breathing area which is now receiving attention and embellishment. There are many other smaU parks and squares scattered over the city wliich aftbrd local breathing places of limited extent. Prospect Terrace, one of them, on the east side, commands a fine view of the city, on another, Roger Williams Square — undevel- oped, and given up by the city to burdocks and old junk — is What Cheer Rock, upon wliich Roger Williams landed in 1636, upon his first entry into Providence Plantations. During the summer season Providence is daily visited by excursion parties many of them from outside the state which come to visit the city and to take boat or electric transport to the numerous shore resorts scattered along the shores of Narragansett Bay. Excursion steamers leave the city wharves every few minutes during the hot season, and many of the points of attraction can be readily reached by steam or electric cars. Field's Point, within the city limits, in South Providence, is the first shore resort reached by boat. ill V Thk Pii:r at Hyaxnisi-ort.

T" tlu\\ist. the waters reach the main portion of Nai-ragansett Bay, flowing past Mount Hope and between the penin- sula of Bristol and the island of Rhode Island, while, to the south, they find their way to the ocean through the narrow and deep Seaconnet River. Tlie wliole bay is charming in situation and outline, and presents some of the most beautiful scenery on the Xarragau- sett shores. As a voadstenil. it is broad enough to shelter navies, sutticientlv dei'i. fur the largest vessels, and l.iy its hind-locked posjiidn, is protected from storms on all sides. FALL RIVER has a population of about ninety thousand. It lies on the eastern border of Mount Hope Bay, at the mouth of the Taunton Ri\-er, and the greater portion is built on hill sides ris- ing quite abruptly from the water's ediie to a lieiglit' of more than one hundred and tifty feet. From tlie summits of these hills, the country extends liack to a SOUTHERN MASSACHUSETTS COAST. comparatively level table-land, on wlik-li a large sec- tion of the city now stands. The southern portion of the city was formerly a portion of Tiverton, Rhode Island, from which it was taken in 1856, and made the town of Fall River. In 1862 it was ceded to Massachusetts and consolidated with the city. Fall River is the principal seat of the cotton manufacture in the United States. Massive factories, each several hundred feet in length, and Ave and six stories in height, the majority of them built of granite, loom up in every section of the city and suburbs, and in their neighborhoods are the houses in- habited by the operatives. The city has good railroad and shipping facilities, and is reached by the lines of the Old Colony Railroad. This port is a favorite shipping point of passengers by steamers of the Fall River Line. The Sound steamers of this line Taunton has probably more varied industries than any city of its size in New England. The leading ones at present are the manufacture of cotton goods, tacks, nails and spikes, locomotives, cotton machinery, printing presses, stoves and stove linings, copper and zinc in all mercantile forms, britannia ware and bricks, besides which there are a large number of other manu- factures carried on in small establishments.

Although so far inland, it has excellent shipping facilities, furnished by the river of the same name, which flows around the city to the eastward. Taunton was the original county scat of Bristol County, and is the site of the new and handsome County Court House. Two lines of the Old Colony Railroad run tlimngh Taunton, namely, the Central Division between New- port and Boston, and the Northern Division between New Bedford and Fitcliburg, crossing each other at Weir .lunction. The princiiial depot is tlie Central Statinii on \V:\\.-< slivrt.

CAPE COD is a long, narrow, saudy peninsula, not much more than Ave miles wide iu any place, and ex- tending iuto the ocean for more thau sixty miles from the southern coast of Massachusetts. In shape it is like an arvn bent at the elbow — the outer shores being washed by the Atlantic, while the inner coast is laved by the tides of Massachusetts Bay. Within recent years the ancient towns on the Cape have gradually become summer resorts. A line of the Old Colony system runs the entire length of the peninsula to the terminal town — Provincetown. The shoulder of the right arm commeuces at Bourne, which contains many shore resorts, both on Buzzard's aud Cape Cod Bays. In Sandwich, the next town, are many, spots of historic interest. The northern end of the Cape Cod canal was located in this town.

MARION, ten miles east of New Bedford, on the western shore of Buzzard's Bay, is a summer resort which is gaining in public esteem each year. The THE CAPE COAST. towu is full of natural beauties, and lias many inter- estiuf; historical associations. The territory em- braced in the town ouce belonged to King Philip, and that great Indian warrior owed his down- fall to the defection of Queen Awashonks and her tribe, who lived on Great Hill, in this town.. A short distance south of Marion village is the house where President and Mrs. Cleveland lived for two summers pre- vious to the purchase of "Gray Gables." There are many fine drives in the vicinity of the village. The harbor is studded witli beautiful islands and its waters contain an abundance of fish. THE SIPPICAN.— Nestled beside the water in Marion, one of the charming places for which the Massachusetts coast is noted, is The Sippican, an ideal summer hotel, which, under the management of the owner, Mr. C. W. Ripley, has achieved a reputation second to that of no other similar summer resort on the Atlantic coast. The environment is most delightful, shade trees, pleasant walks, beautiful drives, splen- did sailing, fishing and bathing all combine to render this one of the most desirable of places in which to forget the cares of daily life. That it is ap- preciated, the constantly increasing number of guests is surticient testimony. ONSET BAY is noted for the beauty of its shores and islands. Many of its most attractive jutting points and headlands are occupied by wealthy Bos- tonians, whose handsome summer residences add to the natural beauty of the situation. " Onset Bay Grove " is noted as the great summer rendezvous of the Spiritualists of the counti'y. The place has a permanent population of considerable numbers, and during the Spiritualist season often en- tertains from 5,000 to 10,000 people. best, being within a minute's walk of the wharf and commanding a fine view of the bay. Opposite the Villa is the Grand Auditorium and the Temple. fcFifTPimi THE UMON VILLA.— This house has been enlarged to twice its former size since last season, giving forty-five desirable rooms. The location is of the Stores, post-ottice and horse cars are close at hand. Bathing, boating and fishing are convenient to the house.

THE GLEN COVE HOUSE.-This house so favorably known under tlir lui-vi.ms management, has been leased by Iluckin^ .<: Mowiy. the popular hotel pro- prietors of .\tlHil. .Mavs., and has been refurnished and thoroughly renovated for the present season. The Glen Cove is situated upon a high.blutt' directly upon the shores of beautiful Onset Bay, opposite Wicketts' Island, and the environments are the most delightful imaginable. The sanitary arrangements are perfect, and the facilities for the health and comfort of the guests are unsurpassed. The table is supplied with the best of everything the market affords. The pro- prietors will give their constant personal attention to the management of the house, and with the flrst-class facilities at their command, will make the resort more popular than ever.

The service at the Hotel Onset is maintained at the highest standard, and the table is supplied with all that is tempting to the palate. The rooms are large, airy and nicely furnished, and nearly all have a tine ocean view. The situation of the house is such that the drainage is complete, and this, with the complete sys- tem of plumbing renders the sanitary conditions per- fect. The house is usually filled early in the season, and parties desiring rooms will do well to apply at once to the manager, A. R. Williams. HYANNIS. — Barnstable, the county seat, is one of the most attractive of the Cape towns. Hyannis, in this town, has, in many respects, outgrown the par- ent establishment. It is situated on the south shore of the Cape, and is reached by a branch of the Old Colony system, leaving the line at Yarmouth Port. Hyannis is a centre of trade for a dozen or more vil- lages, and it is the only port of importance on the south side of the Cape. Yarmouth Port is a hand- some village, and has one of the finest village streets to be found on the Cape. The villages of Den- nis — the next town east — are thronged with visi- tors during the summer. Harwichport is nearly southeast and about three miles distant from Harwich, which is the junction of the Chatham branch with tlie main line of the railroad, is the village of Harwi chport. a part of which, including the harbor imini, !■< covered with handsome cottages occupied diuin^ the sunnner Isy wealthy residents of BrooVclyn anil is known as Wychmere. Natural conditions niidirthis portion of the town one of the finest location-^ rdrsum- nier residents to he found on the cape. Harwich. Brewster and Chatham — the last the elbow of the arm— are all interesting towns which present many points- of interest to summer sojourners. Wellfleet, the third town from Cape Cod, is the last one that may be said to have a soil, as Truro and Province- town are decidedly sandy. Wellfleet is designed by nature for shore resorts, as from its clifls some of the finest views of old Ocean can be obtained. A Boston syndicate has recently acquired some of its most desirable points, and the town is experiencing something of a boom as a summer resort. Provincctowu, the town at the extreme point, is a village of nearly 5,000 inhabitants, most of whom are engaged in fishing. The village gardens owe their verdure to earth, which was formerly brousrht in by vessels which came to the port after fish. But for this imported earth it would l)e impossible to cultivate the soil. Province- town, which contains many well-to-do Portuguese citizens, entertains a large number of summer visitors. HYANNISPORT, across the harl)or, west of Hyannis, is one of the finest summer resorts ou Cape Cod. It enjoys exhilirating sea breezes, elegant shore situ, atious, and the best of boating- lishiug and bathing facilities. It is gaining in popularity every THE HALLETT HOUSE.— Situ- :iumI u],on till- l.lutr that over- liiiiks the harl)orat Hyannisport, mill but a short walk from the pier and the bathing beach, tlie environment of the Hallett House is unsurpassed as an ideal seaside retreat during the The broad verandas and cool rooms seem to invite the breezes which render comfortable the summer afternoons when the sun is parching the city pavements, while the beautiful bathing beach vies with the pleasant walks and drives, the excellent bowling alley and fine billiard and pool parlors in providing recreation for the guest.

THE CROSBY HOUSE.— Nature has been lavish in the distribution of her charms ou that section of Cape Cod which includes Osterville, and in no place can they be enjoyed to greater advantage than in the beau- tiful spot selected for the location of the Crosby House. Just sufficiently removed from the ocean to escape the monotonous and to some, unpleasant, beat of the tides upon the shores, yet so near that a pleas- ant walk or short drive brings the guest to the beach where bathing, boating or fishing may be enjoyed to the fullest extent and in perfect safety, while the green fields and .shadv trees by which the house is surrounded, all'ord the perfection of rural comfort and seclusion. The promise of the surroundings is happily fulfilled by the hospitality which meets the arriving guest at the doors of Crosby House, and which is never relaxed during the stay, whether it be for a day or for the season. The house is under the personal management of the owner, Mrs. H. S. Crosby, whose entire efforts are directed to the comfort and pleasure of her guests. The table, which is her pride, and the sleeping and sitting rooms all show the result of her careful supervision, and guests who have once enjoyed the Itospitality of the Crosby House are rarely tempted elsewhere. SNOW COTTAGE. -Beautifully situated at Wych- meri'. in the old village of Harwichport, surrounded. hy elegant modern cottages, where reside in summer many of the elite of Brooklyn and other cities, amid beautiful pine groves reaching nearly to the water's edge, while on the water front and almost directly beneath the broad piazzas is the bathing beach and old ocean itself.

VINEYARD SOUND Between the Elizabeth Islands and tlie northern coast of JIartlia's Vineyard is Vine- yard Sound, five or six miles in width and twenty miles in length, one of the greatest thoroughfares for vessels in the world. The keels of e\ery nation plough these waters w itliout rest day or night. MARTHA'S VINEYARD One of the best known of the many summer resorts on the Northern Atlantic seaboard is the island of Martha's Vineyard, ott' the southeastern coast of Massachusetts, and within an hour's sail of the mainland. COTTAGE CITY.— The majority of the visitors to Martha's Vineyard have for their destination the unique summer resort now known by the cor- porate name of " Cottage City,'" but which was originally known by the more appropriate title ■' Oak Blurt's." Although the is- land has two considerable village communities, Edgartowu and Vineyard Haven, and a numljer of small hamlets, all indigenous to the country. Cottage City is the Mecca of the summer visitors and is a community radically dif- ferent from its neighbors. While the other places are the homes of the native farmers and fisher- men, Cottage City had its origin hi a Methodist camp-meeting, lieginning in 1835 and has de veloped from and outgrown that lieginning, until it has become the most uuiiiue, self-contained and self-centered summer community in tlie country. It is situated on the east- ern side of the island, where the c'oast is formed by steep sand blurt's. The place is handsomely laid out, and is strikingly beautiful, as viewed from the water. Cottage City consists of three distinct sections. Oak Blurts, the region along shore in the most popu- lar portion of the place; the "Camp Ground" nr Wesleyan Grove, westward of Oak Blurt's; Vineyard Highlands, separated from the two former localities Ijy lake Anthony, a small shore pond. There are steamboat landings both at Vineyard Highlands and Oak Blurt's. Vineyard Highlands is the property of the Baptist Vineyard Association. In the midst of the grove, two or three minutes' walk from the wharf, is the large circular Baptist tabernacle, and surrounding it 74 THE CAPE COAST. iMLi •K, Cottage City. are a large number of tasteful cottages. The camp meetings of the Baptists are held usually during the week preceding those of the Methodists. Cottage City is reached by steamers of the New Bedford, Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket Steamboat Company, which make during the summer, at least two trips daily each way from New Bedford and Wood's Holl, connecting directly with trains to those points over the Old Colony lines, and by this means making through connections with New York or Bos- ton, over the usual routes. The steamers of the Maine Steamship Company, which leave Pier 88 East River, New York City, Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays at .5 p. m., arrive nest morning at Cottage City in time for breakfast. E. G. ELDRIDGE, REAL ESTATE AND INSUR- ANCE.— Tlie minute sub-division of property at Cottage City and the consequent multitude of cottage and lot owners, a very laige penent aiie of which are non-residents occupMug then property only in the summer mouths, lendeis iiirissary the constant presence of a uspon-i lilc mail whose watchfulness will insnie the 111'.)]..

Insurance in first class companies may be efl'ected through his agency, and loans negotiated at reasonable rates. The accom- panying cut shows the front of Mr. Eldridge's office in. the Arcade building and next door to the postoffice building. FIELD'S HOTEL OAKWOOD.— To such visitors to Cottage City as have in past years enjoyed the hospi- tality of the Oakwood under the management of Mr. D. W. Russell, the builder, and until his death the sole proprietor of the house, it is unnecessary to describe its attractions, but for the information of such as propose visiting Cottage City for the first time, a brief description may not be out of place. The house is beautifuly situated midway between the steamboat THE CAPE COAST. lanrliugs, in close proximity to the post-otlice and principal stores, and but three or four minutes' walli from the bathing beach, "while the Methodist Taber- uacle is still nearer in another direction. The present proprietor, Mr. Herbert H. Field, formerly manager of the Highland House, Cottage City, and more recently manager of the New England World's Fan- Hotel at Chicago, has remodeled the entire front of the house, the piazza has been extended to nearly double its former width, and the appearance and convenience of the house improved in many ways. The service, especially in the dining room is under the personal supervision of Mr. Field, while the cuisine will challenge the criticism of the most fastidious. A new office and smoking room have been added, and, by a perfect system of plumbing and sanitary conditions are made equal to the best. Ladies' toilet rooms have been provided at the end of each corridor, and the house has been entirely renovated. Beech Grove spring water only is used Thk N.\urag.vxsett House, Cottage City. in kitchen and dining room. Intending visitors to Cottage City will And it to their advantage to inspect the attractions of the Oakwood, or corres- pond with Mr. Field before permanently establish- ing themselves elsewhere. THE NARRAGANSETT.— An exceedingly comfortable and home-like house in which to make one's abode for a few days or for a much longer period is " The Nar- ragansett," located on the avenue of the same name, whicii is one of the chief residence avenues of Cottage City. The house is perfectly in harmony with its surroundings, it has spacious piazzas and l)alconies and the rooms are pleasant and airy. A beautiful lawn extends along the entire front of the house, and there are plenty of shade trees in the vicinity. The house has, under the management of A. A. Hill, proprietor, long enjoyed the reputation of being a flrst-class hotel, and this reputation will con- tinue to be jealously guarded and every effort made to maintain it in the future. The bathing beach, the steamboat landing, the post-otlice and other points of interest are only a few minutes' walk distant. CHARLES SNO'W, auctioneer and real estate agent is one of the Ijest-known business men in Cottage City, and his many years' experience in his own line, coupled with the good and just service he has ren- dered his patrons, has given him an enviable reputa- tion for honorable dealing and reliability. Mr. Snow is one of the best cjualified men in the community to transact such business. He has cottages for sale or to let, and makes contracts for building, painting and repairing and mason work. Deeds, leases, mortgages and conveyances of all kinds executed at his office on short notice. Cottages left in his care will be closed in the fall, personally inspected through the winter, and opened in the spring. Mr. Snow's office is at 124 Circuit avenue, Cott.ige City. THE ISLAND HOUSE Among the many marked im- provements at Oak Blufl's no one attracts more atten- tion than tliat of the Island House, one of the best hotels on the island. The entire building has been thoroughly renovated, and has been made as attractive as pos'.ible. The manager, Mr. Eugene Hayden, appreciating the importance of a flrst-class hotel here, has put, in the eigthy-odd sleeping rooms, new beds and mattresses, and cosy new style fur- niture. Tlie sanitary arrangements deserve especial iiniicc. as they include ladies' toilets on each floor, ^^itll gentlemen's toilets in the basement. The former l)illiard room has been fitted up in an at- tractive manner, and the large room formerly de- \ored to billiards has been annexed to the main dining-room by folding doors, and gives an in- creased seating capacity that guarantees accom- modation during the most crowded portion of the season. The parlors have been newly furnished in tasty furniture, with many choice bits of paint- ings and bric-a-brac, and the entire house offers to the traveling public one of the cosiest and most comfortable of summer resort hotels. The menu will include luncheons and meals served to order from 5 A. M. until 11 o'clock p. m., while arrangements are made to serve luncheons in private dining-rooms at all hours. The new office, which occupies the space of the old office and one of the parlors, is a gem in hardwood with handsome finish, and is furnished in appropriate furniture to match the surroundings. FENNER COTTAGE.— Pleasantly situated on Pequot avenue, in the most select portion of Cottage City, near all of the i)arks and bathing beach, and l)ut a few minutes' walk from the post-office and boat land- ings, yet entirely removed from the noise and bustle of the business portion of the place. Fenner Cottage presents exceptional advantages to those desiring a cosy quiet resting place at the seashore. The house, which has during the five years that it has been under the management of Mrs. J. Crossett, gained and main- tained a reputation second to none as a desirable sum- mer residence, has been thoroughly renovated for the present season, improved toilet conveniences have been added, the dining room has ijeen enlarged and re-decorated, and material improvements have been made in minv directions iiieluiruii; running water on THE CAPE COAST. each floor. The table service and kitchen -will as iuprevious seasons be under the personal supervision of Mrs. Crossett, and the table will be supplied with all the delicacies of the season and the freshest of vegetables and tish. 'Especial care has been taken in the preparation of the sleeping apartments for this season, and in this department Fenner Cot- tage equals the leading hotels. Persons of quiet tastes intend- ing to visit Cottage City during the present season, will do well to engage rooms at Fenner Cot- tage, special terms being made for the entire season, and to guests during June or Septem- ber. P. O. Box 302 ; Mrs. J. N. Crossett.] THE NAUMKEAG.— This popular house has been purchased by the former lessee, A. L. Drew, and having been remodelled and thororougbly renovated, will be continued as before under the same manage- ment, which has made it one of the most popular sum- mer hotels on the Atlantic coast. The situation of the Naumkeag is convenient to all of the attractions of Cottage City, yet sutficiently re- moved from the business streets to avoid the noise and bustle, has contributed largely to its popularity ; while the internal arrangements for the care of guests, ihe airy and finely furnished parlors and sleeping rooms, the charming dining-room and un- surpassed cuisine, leave nothing to be desired l)y the visitor. The same personal attention will be given to the comfort and amusement of guests as in years past, and the applications from guests of former sea- sons would indicate that It is appreciated. Applications for rooms should be addressed to A. L. Drew, Cottage City, Mass. THE PEQUOT.— The popularity of this well-known house, among such summer visitors to Cottage City as have enjoyed its hospitality, is evidenced by their return from season to season, some of them having been its guests nearly every season since the first opening of the house in 1884, when it was but a small cottage with accommodations for only thirty-five or forty people, while at the present time by constant additions necessitated by the annual increase of desir- able guests, it will accommodate one hundred and twenty-five. Since the last season an entirely new kitclicii lias lir.Mi l.iiilt, th.- fnint of the house has liccii lais, ,1 siiilMjriitly to |M'iiiiit a free circulation of air UMiliTiiralli all llooi's, improved closets and sanitary conveniences have been provided and nearly the entire house has been overhauled and re-furnished.

The cuisine and service are under the personal supervision of the proprie- toress, Mrs. L. E. Phinuey, and nothing is neglected which will conduce to the comfort and pleasure of guests. The table service is particularly excellent, and is sought by many who are compelled to seek lodging elsewhere. The Pequot is a desirable resort for families and people of retired tastes who wish to enjoy the natural attractions of the place, while avoiding the bustle and excitement of the larger hotels. VINEYARD GROVE HOUSE.— People visiting Cot- tage City should not fail to visit the Vineyard Grove House, on Siloam avenue, kept by Capt. Joseph Dias, which is one of the distinctive features of the place, uniting as it does the ancient and modern history of the Vineyard. Captain Dias is one of the oldest resi- dents and has witnessed the growth of the place into a summer resort from its former condition as a resort of whalers and fishermen, and he can relate many stories of former days. The Vineyard Grove House is a well-kept hotel, five minutes' walk from the land- ing, and directly on the line of the horse cars which connect with every boat. It is only two minutes' walk from tlic jiost-oilice and principal stores. The table is sujiplicd with the best in the market, the vegetables l)eing picked fresh every day. The Tabernacle is only a few steps from the doors, and the house is con- ducted on strictly temperance principles. People wishing to escape the noise and turmoil of the cities will find the AHneyard Grove House' the quietest place in the city, and with its excellent accommodations and moderate prices, all that could be desired as a summer residence, although the house is kept open all the year. Connected with the house is a first-class grocery and provision store, where may always be found a full line of good things for the table. THE ('APE COAST. M \-^ EDGARTOWN.— Oq a level plain alons shore, and i'ronthii;' on a deep, land-locked harbor of iri'eat area, is the ancient village of Edgartown. It is on the easterly end of the island, six miles south from Cot- tage City, from where it is reached either by the rail- road or by the beach drive. The harbor has a pleasing variety of outline, and is connected with Katama Bay, one of the most beantiful bodies of water on the shores of the Vineyard. THE HARBOR VIEW HOTEL st^inds on Staibuck Xfck, a hiah. grassy point, extending out fmm and partly enclosing the harbor of Edgartown. The loca- tion of the hotel is a charming one. The view from tlie piazzas embraces the brond expanse of Vineyard Sound bounded by distant Cape Cod, the whole nortli- ern coast of Martha's Vineyard and adjacent waters, almost at a glance. The Harbor VIpav stands jnst out from the quaint old town, yet near enough for all of the advantages of post-office, telegrapli, telephone, stores, physicians, churches, etc. Its location ont upon the point renders it always cool and breezy.

NANTUCKET.— Thirty miles south from the outer shoi'es of Cape Cod, and about fifteen miles distant in a south-easterly direction from Martha's Vine- yard, lies the wave-worn island ^ I of Nantucket, a veritable sand y^jJ j heap amid the waste of waters. ^M^B It is about fifteen miles in length ~" ^^ fi'om the "cut oft"" at Smith's Point to Siasconset Cliffs, and -J varies in width from six and a lialf miles at Siasconset, the widest place, to a stone's throw at either "Point," the width being the same in scarcely any two places. Nantucket is the name of a county, a township, an island, and a town. As a county and a township it is the same, embracing the main island, Tuckernuck, Muskeget, the two Gravelly Islands, and, when cut oil by the sea, Smith's Point Island. On the island is the town itself, the village of Siasconset, the summer resorts of Surfside and Wanwinet, and many sepa- rately-named localities or districts, as Coatne, Squam, Quaise. Polpis, North Pasture, Middle Pasture and South Pasture, the Plains, Maddequet and Great Neck. THE VERANDA HOUSE.— In the quaint old town of XantucUet, I'i-plete as it is with the relics and memo- ries of the days when our whaling ships were numer- ous in every sea, and where may be found that repose and (piiet which are so eagerly sought by the tired Inain-workers from office and school, a short distance back from tlie landing of the steamer from New Bed- ford and the terminus of the Nantucket railway, and just sufficient!}' removed from the main street to com- pletely escape its noise and bustle, is the Veranda House, conducted by Mrs. S. G. Davenport.

The city contains several handsome avenues which rival the I'aris boulevards in beauty, and it has instituted a comprehensive system of parks, wliich embraces both city and suburbs.

NANTASKET BEACH The most popular seashore resort in the vicinity of Boston is Nautasket which has gained its reputation by a rare combination of na- ture and art. The l)each is a stretch of sliorc. four miles In length, situated on the seaward side of :i nar- row peninsula, which extends from the niainlund i)f riages may drive abreast upon the broad sands. Tlie slope of the beach is exceedingly gentle and uniform, there is no undertow, and the bathing is perfectly safe. At the north the peninsula ends in a rocky promontory. Point AUertou, and then extends west- ward for a mile or more in a knob-shaped hilly mass. Here is the little seaside village of Hull, about which and its inhabitants many quaint stories are told. From Boston, Nautasket can be reached either by rail or steamer. The most enjoyable way to go to Nautasket is by Ijoat, as thereby one has an opportu- nity of oliserving the beauties of Boston Harbor, Till! Statu Housk, Beacox Him,. Plymouth County to the main entrance into Boston Harbor, and is a great natural breakwater enclosing the whole southern portion of the harbor. There are many summer hotels and residences on the peninsula, and the place affords unlimited opportunities for rec- reation either to permanent sojourners or transient visitors. The beach is one of the most beautiful in New Eng- land. The surf rolls in, unbroken by rock or barrier for the whole distance of four miles. At liigh tide the water comes nearly to the steps of the luiUlings which stand along the shore; at low lidc a ilozc n car- passing among Ihe many islands and obtaining fine views of the city, South and East Boston. TAYLOR'S TAVERN — One of the best houses at Nautasket is Taylor's Tavern. It has ample facilities for the accommodation of its guests.

DOWNER LANDING is a popular excursion resort, picturesquely situated on a point at the mouth of reached by the half-hourly trains of the Boston, Re- vere Beach and Lynn railroad. Taking the ferry boat at 350 .Atlantic avenue, Boston, a ride of eight minutes lands you at the new train house at East Boston, where a train, exclusively for Winthrop pas- sengers, is always to be found. This train leaves the main line at Orient Heights, and from this point makes a circuit of Winthrop, stopping at nine stations, so that every section of the little town of only a thou- sand acres is within a few minutes' walk of the rail- road. During the summer months a delightful trip can he ni;iilr l.i Winthrop by the boats of the Win- thro p Steamboat Company, which leave 478 Atlantic avenue about every 4.") minutes, landing at Cottage Hill, from which point barges run to all parts of the town.

It is one of tlie regular landings for the steamers to Nantasket. At the head of the pier is a large hotel, and on the hill beyond are many pretty summer cottages. The place is one of the most attractive in the vicinity of Boston. MELVILLE GARDEN is really an annex of Downer Landing. It contains about twenty acres of groves, shrubbery, hills and i)onds provided with all inaiuicr of means for summer enjoyment and comfort.

The Bos- ton Revere Beach and Lynn Railroad, a narrow gauge, line ten miles long, runs along this beach, and trains stop at every place of any coDsetjuence and each point is also reached by electric cars. The starting point for the steam cars is East Boston, and con- nection is made with Boston by ferry. During the summer the trains run either way every fifteen minutes the greater part of the day. Crossing East Boston, passing the seaside park at Woods Island, the trains after a run of three miles reach Orient Heights where connection is made ■with the loop line around the shore of Wiuthrop peninsula. The next station is Beachmont, in the neighborhood of which ou the hilly point to the eastward are many summer residences. For the next five miles the railroad runs directly on the edge of the beach, and fine views of Boston Bay, Lynn Harbor, Winthrop, and Nahant are obtained while the trains speed along. Landward are wide salt marshes. The principal resorts along the shore are Crescent Beach, Oak Island and Point of Pines. At Crescent Beach are a number of hotels and cottages, and at its outer end is a long and substantial landing pier. Oak Isl- ind is a popular picnic and society resort. At the Point of Pines is a large hotel, and here great spec- tacular plays are frequently given, while the place is provided with all the usual requirements for popular amusements. LYNN. — Twelve miles from Boston, by the Eastern Division of the Boston and Maine Railroad, is the City of Lynn. It has a population of about sixty thousand persons, and is the most important shoe manufacturing center in the country, one-quarter of the entire population being engaged in this business, and the annual product amounting to more than $20,000,000 in value. NAHANT.— Twelve miles distant from Boston is the peninsula of Nahant, rising In the highest point to 150 feet above the sea. It has a rocky coast and is connected with the city of Lynn by a long narrow isthmus, which on the seaward side has a fine beach about two miles long, on which the surf rolls in grandly. The peninsula is mainly occupied by sum- mer residences. Nahant was the first fashionable seaside resort in the vicinity of Boston, and it still maintains it renown as a residence resort, its stately mansions being tenanted by some of the oldest and most blue-blooded Boston families. Many wealthy business men of the city have summer residences here, and manage to transfer their legal residences to the town, so as to escape the city taxes. The result is that Nahant is relatively the richest community ou tlie continent; its per capita valuation amounting to near ten thousand dollars for each person. BASS POINT, a section of Nahant, devoted princi- pally to hotels and picnic grounds for the accommo- dation of day excursionists, is reached from Boston by steamers from T^incoln Wharf. Trips are made about every hour during the d.ay. The Point has been noted for years on account of the excellent fish dinner served at the various hotels, but until about three years ago it was not a convenient place to get to. .\t that time a wharf was liuilt and a first-class line of steamers established, the hotels greatly increased in capacity, and at present a large number of people can be accommodated. One striking feature in favor of Bass Point — it is always cool. Band concerts are given every afternoon and evening. Dancing is pro- vided under the direction of competent musicians, and there is every attraction for young and old — boating, bathing. Ashing, bowling, etc. SWAMPSCOTT is a fashionable watering place, which can be reached either by sea, or by steam or electric cars. It is situated on the north side of Nahant bay. A mile or two beyond it is Phillips Beach. Beach Bluft", Clifton and Clifton Heights, near Ijy, are also attractive resorts. MARBLEHEAD is a (|uaint, old town, which is he- coniing more and more frequented year by year. Years ago it was a great fishing town and many of its inhabitants are still engaged in that business, but shoe manufacturing is now its industry. It has an excellent harbor, and is a great rendezvous for pleas- ure yachts. Marblehead Neck is lined with elegant residences. The beach is the scene of Hawthorne's essay, "Footprints in the Sands," and the town has been made the scene of many stories and poems by several of our best writers. SALEM is, after Plymouth, the oldest town in New England. It was settled in 1 626 and it has always been a leading town. In 1790, when our first census was taken, it was the second town in New England and the sixth in the conntry. It has a good harbor and is the seat of considerable shipping. Salem was distinguished during the Revolutionary War for its patriotic zeal, and it is said that no less than sixty armed vessels, manned by 4,000 men, were sent out as privateers. This place, in the early days of Massa- chusetts, was the central point of Puritanism. It was from this town that Roger Williams was driven forth for advocating freedom of conscience. Here, in 1692, occurred the famous witchcraft craze, in which 19 persons were executed. This city is the birthplace of Gen. Israel Putnam, of Prescott, (the historian) , and of Nathaniel Hawthorne. CAPE ANN.— -At Beverly, the next station on the eastern division beyond Salem, the Gloucester branch, running the whole length of Cape Ann, connects with the main line. The peninsula, of which Cape Ann is the extremity, is from sixteen to seventeen miles in length. It encloses Massachusetts Bay on the north. The general appearance of Cape Ann is rocky in the extreme, and the whole peninsula is astonishingly diversified with hills, hillocks, ledges and boulders. '■ Here and there, like a caprice of nature, are bits ol' idyllic beauty, a quiet little nook by a brookside, or a pool reflecting the blue sky on its quiet bosom, un- conscious of the raging ocean close at hand." Cape .\nn is now much resorted to during the snmnicr by m mi I I e Bl'dg.

Hotels, boarding houses, aud'elegant summer residences are becoming numerous along its shores, and it has sev- eral well-known resorts, Manchester-by-the-Sea, Mag- nolia, Beverly Farms and Pigeon Cove, besides the city of Gloucester and the town of Rockporl. One of the finest drives in New England is "around the Cape "' from Gloucester past Bass Rocks and Long Beach to Rockport and Pigeon Cove, then to Lanes- villc, Bay Views, Aunisquam and Riverdale, and then back to Gloucester. The road nearly the whole dis- tance is in sight of the sea, and leads high along the rocky cxi.isl. BEVERLY FARMS.— The lirst important station on the railroad after leaving Beverly is Beverly Farms, though to this point the road passes many summer resi- dences. Beverly Farms is an aristocratic resort, and its niansious are chiefly tenanted by Boston families. MANCHESTER-BY-THE-SEA. — Two miles beyond Beverly Farms, situated on a snug little harbor, is a quaint old maritime village. It has been a favorite resort of authors and actors, and references to it are found in Professor Tenny's novel, " Coronation," in Admiral Porter's " Allen Dare and Robert le Diable," and in William Black's "Green Pastures and Picca- dilly." The place is famous for its singing beach, whose sands when walked upon give forth a musical sound. The name, Mauchester-by-the-Sea, was given to the place by .Tames T. Fields, the well-known pub- lisher. MAGNOLIA, now a famous and charming summer resort, is situated on a rocky point several miles from the railroad station of the same name and is a place of summer residences. A short distance from Magnolia are Raf e's Chasm, a deep Assure in the rock, and the Reef of Norman's Woe, the scene of Longfellow's poem, " The Wreck of the Hesperus. " GLOUCESTER.— Is the greatest fishing port in the :;ountry. It has nearly a thousand vessels engaged in the cod and mackerel fisheries and the prosperity of the place is dependent upon their success. Near the city arc the summer resorts of Bass Rock, East Gloucester and East Point, each of which contains good hotels for the entertainmeut of visitors, Gloucester is a great fishing port. From here is sent the largest cod-fishing fleet this country has ever seen. In the fleet are some of the fastest boats iifloat. That brand of salt codfish, " Not-a-Bone," is packed both here and at Boston by Leonard A. Treat. ROCKPORT.— At the extremity of Cape Ann, is the little S(?aport of Rockport, the terminus of the Cape Ann l)ranch of the Boston & Maine Railroad. Oft' the end of Cape Ann, near Rockport, Is Thatcher's Island, on which are the Cape Liglits, two light houses, 112 feet high and a third of a mile apart, both pro- vided with powerful Frcsnel lights. From Rockport great quantities of granite are shipped to all parts of the country. PIGEON COVE.— About two miles from Rockport, on the extreme northeasterly tip of Cape Ann, Is the resort of Pigeon Cove. Stages connecting with the trains run from Rockport, the road lying along the face of the rocky coast like a shelf, and passing many of the great granite quarries. Since 1840 the locality has been a place of summer habita- tion for wealth and celebrated people, and at present there are a considerable number of summer cottages and several hotels and boarding houses. The forests and the shores In the vicinity possess many features of natural beauty. NEWBURYPORT.-The city of Newburyport, thirty- seven miles from Boston at the mouth of the Merrl- mac river, is probably the most antique looking town in New England. It has about 14,000 inhabitants, and is one of the oldest seaports on the coast, the parent town of Newbury having been founded in IGSn. "Though she were, indeed, famous for nothing else, Newburyport would have to be so for the excellence of her situation." For she lies on a ridge at the mouth of the Merrimac, and at the extremity of that long line of the Essex beaches, which are unrivalled for their splendor of scenery and their storied interest — a streich of coast beginning with the surge-eaten cliffs nf Nahant and ending in the Salisbury sands just beyond the Merrimac. SALISBURY BEACH Is four miles from Newbury- port, from which it is reached by stage during the summer. The beach stretches some six miles in length between the Merrimac and Hampton rivers, and is composed of smooth, hard sand excellently adapted for driving. The locality is famous as the scene of Whittier's poem, ''The Tent on the Beach." On some days in August, each season thousands of people from up the country assemble on the beaches, enjoy the bathing and listen to speeches on questions of the day by leading ])ublic men and famous orators. HAMPTON BEACH.— Beyond the Salisbury Sands, on the north side of Hampton river, is Hampton Beach, the flrst point in New Hampshire. Whittier describes the locality in his poem of "The Wreck of River- mouth." Hampton Beach is three miles from Hamptou station, on- the eastern division, where conveyances are in waiting during the season to " Boar's Head," a bold bluff sixty or seventy feet in height, which juts out into the ocean about a quarter of a mile, and is the nucleus around which cluster the hotels and cottages. The beach stretches away from Boar's Head on either side; on the south, three-quarters of a mile away, is Hampton Lower Beach ; on the north the beach ex- tends to Little Boar's Head, about three miles dis- tant. These beaches are composed mainly of smooth, hard sand, which forms, when the tide is out, an ex- cellent driveway ; they are also excellently adapted for bathing, on account of their smoothness and the absence of undertow, while there is a fine surf. From its highest elevation, which is towards the sea, the Boar's Head slopes gradually to the level of the shore. Several of the hotels are built on this slope. Along the line of these bi aches the most of the hotels and residences are built on a strip of land which inter- venes between extensive salt marshes and the ocean. BOSTON H A KBOK— BOSTON TO PORTLAND Gi.<)UCE«Ei!, Mass RYEi BEACH.— Just beyond Hampton is Eye Beacb. the most fashionable resort on the New Hampshire coast. It is reached by a drive of four miles by stage from North Hampton station, on the eastern division, or from Portsmouth by a drive of seven miles. Here are a number of small beaches alteruatiuij with wave- worn ledges, while to the north a long, sandy beach stretches to Straw Point. A delightful surf rolls in, and the bathing is safe and pleasant. From Eye and Hampton beaches can be seen the Isles of Shoals. PORTSMOUTH is another of the old New England seaport towns. When tlii- (■.niini \ \\,i- :i > niunicrcial nation it was the chief town of i li. Si:ii, . .m it is now the fifth. It has a deeii and coiiiuiuilioiis liai-l)(>r whicli iscapableof sheltering 2,000 vessels. A I'nitcil Stal.-s Navy Yard is located across the Piscatanua in Kittery. It contains the grand old frigate Constitutiuu, which won the first naval victory over the British in the War of 1812. The city is now much frequented as a sum- mer resort. Among its local attractions are New- castle, an ancient village on Great Island. On Littk' Harbor, near Newcastle, is Hotel Wentworth, one of the largest summer hotels iu the country. ISLES OF SHOALS.— At the mouth of the Piscataqua , about nine miles from Portsmouth, are eight small islands— part of them in Maine and part in New Hampshire — known as the Isles of Shoals. They are rugged rocky ledges, risiug abruptly out of the water. In olden time they were a rendezvous for pirates, ami th3y have been the scene during recent years of sev- eral sensational murders.

Too many people fail to take their recreation as they should; they actually have more excitement, more anxiety of mind and more running to and fro than they have while pnrsuing their every-day vocations. This is especially so when they seek crowded resorts, where the con- stant whirl of excitement has a tendancy to run down the system instead of renewing and building it up. as properly regulated recreation would do. It is bo- cause they have not yet become crowded that the Provincial resorts arc so much in favor with American tourists. In these Provinces there is room for thous- ands of tourists without fear of jostling elbows. Everywhere there is grand scenery, excellent fishing, l)oating and bathing facilities, an atmosphere free from malaria, cool nights, days that are seldom ex- cessively hot, hotel bills are moderate, and they can be reached in a little over twenty-four hours from Boston, (only one night at sea) by a delightful and invigorating sea voyage. The tours arranged through these delightful coun- tries, where nature has been so lavish of her gifts that art is scarcely missed at all, are quite numerous, and each has attractions to offer which are dirt'erent from the rest. If one only makes the round trip to Halifax or Charlottetown, they will have seen much that is strange and grand and beautiful. The rock-bound southern coast of Nova Scotia, along which the steamer skirts en route to Halifax or Charlottetown, has been likened to that of Norway, and is broken frequently by broad bays and harbors, with high vendure-clad hills, prosperous looking farms and numerous white cottaged hamlets. The clear. Iiracins air, which is a combination of the breath of old ocean and the aroma of the sweet-smelling gums and balsams of the thickly growing spruce and pine trees on the hilltops, is sufficient to excite an appetite that would cause a dyspeptic to sigh in anticipation of such a trip. THE CANADA, ATLANTIC AND PLANT STEAM- SHIP LINE, the only one running ljct\vccn eastern Nova Scotia, Cape Breton and Prince Edward's Island, and Boston, outlines some two dozen summer tours in its attractive folder, which have been carefully ar- r.anged with a view of suiting all kinds and conditions of travelers. One can take a cheap tour or an ex- pensive one; he can see all that Europe, or British Columbia, or Colorado, or California has to show in the way of scenery, and at less than quarter of the cost, and he will lie pleased to discover that he has IravcU-d ill ;i country the chief occupation of whose iu- haliiliints i^ not lo see how much money they can filch out of their suiiiiner visitors.
