(Cor re spond ence
On Thursday, the 22nd July, at 5 p. m., the good ship Bonavista, Capt. D. Ander- son commanding, left Montreal with thirty- seven cabin passengers. The weather was fine and cool for the season, and the time was pleasantly filled until we reached Char- lottetown, Prince Edward Island, which we did about 5 o’clock on Sunday afternoon. Here many of the passengers landed. Some went to the Rankin House, others to the Osborne and more to the Revere, iad all were soon fixed for the night, and the good
-|ship with those bound for Pictou and New-
foundland, with whom we parted with regret, were left on board. The portion of the cargo intended for the Isiand was dis- charged after midnight, and about daylight the Bonavista was off for Pictou. Char- lottetown does not impress the traveller landing on a Sunday evening as a very busy or enterprising city. The houses look old,
at least those seen from the landing. They
are mostly shingled instead of clapboarded, :
and the number of brick and stone dwel-
lings seem in a very large minority. Most of the passengers are bound for the water-
ing places on the north side of the Island.
So far as we can leam there are three places contesting fairly for the palm in popular favor. These are generally reached either from Charlottetown or Summerside, the point where the Miramichi lands her |passengers for Prince Edward Island by train to Hunter River. The, first is Tra-
cadie beach, on which there is a very good hotel, but this year it is not by any means full, indeed the number of visitors may be counted at this time on the fingers of one’s hands. The second in order, travelling east, is Brackley Point. Here the accom- modation for visitors is confined to one or two farm houses. The plzce is very popu- lar and the number of visitors is limited only by the available accommodation, Shaw's being quite full all the season, and last, but by no means the least, is the Sea- side Hotel, Rustico, kept by Mr. Newson, and accommodating forty or fifty guests, and the facilities are all too limited for the increasing popularity of the place. The house is pleasantly siturated on a rising ground overlooking a bay. There is a long pier running out from the foot of the bank, where the hotel stands. There is a coy- ered platform where the delightful and invigorating sea breezes may be enjoyed, and boats are available for reachingthe bathing. There is also a bowling alley attached t. the hotel. The beach on the island opposite the hotel is sand and the facilities for bath
ing safe and in every way enjoyable. The distance is rather a drawback, but to young people the row over to the island and the scamp@r across it are not unenjoyable. Tlfe guests ht the hotel are made up in large part Of people who have been going to Rustico for years, and this fact adds much to the home feeling of comfort, and tends greatly to add to the attractions of the place. What Rustico would be without the bard and professor, the captain, the doctors and others, is hard to conceive. The house is well kept, serupulously clean,
captains select sides and a contest is entered | on, the several players being criticized with much warmth, and if sometimes a little severely, always given ‘aa received with great good nature and much merriment. The game over and the resuit announced, the bell again rings, and the boats are taken | for the island. This occupies the time until dinner. The afternoon is given up to | rambles, drives, and sauntering, some of ‘the more energetic returning to the bowling |’ alley. ‘Tea at 6, and the evening is spent with music, cards, readings ‘and other amusements. At 11 the lights are put out jin the drawing room. There is no liquor » | sold in the house, and for a family the | obje ctions to hote! life are all absent.
—_——-—__-—~s> > oe ____——- Reported Indian Raids.
Three reports have been received in Ari- zona of an Indian raid near Ures last week. One was that the Indians had killed eleven teamsters, Americans, and forty mules; an- other said seven Mexicans and two Am- ericans were killed. The last and probably most reliable report is that they attacked a train of four waggons and killed Mexican teamsters, then made a raid on Mineas | Prietas and killed two Mexican wood chop- | pers, then made another detour and raided | round back toward Mowlans, stealing hor- | ses as they went. The country is_terror- lized. The Indians are supposed to be a portion of Geroniimo’s band.

A Ghastly Struusie.
A despatch from Louisville, Ky., says : Samuel Reedy was fortunate enough to win considerable money on the recent election and a large amount of it was paid to him on the night of the llth. On his way home and when near old western cemetery, at Sixteenth and Jefferson streets, he was met by two men who told him ghouls had open- ed one of the large vaults and desecrated it. Reedy was induced to go in and inspect the vault. When they reached the west end of the cemetery Reedy saw that a vault was standing open and from it came a damp, mouldy odor. He entered with his guides and felt for some matches with which to make a light, when he was seized from be- hind and the muzzle of a pistol pressed to his ear. A cool, low voice informed him that. he must give up his money or have his brains blown out. Reedy was for a moment para- lyzed with fear and a cold sweat broke out on his brow. A hand was placed in his pocket to relieve him of any money he might have, and this action aroused him. Feeling that the pistol had moved away irom his head, he began to struggle with the would-be robbers. Ovor and over the floor the struggling men rolled, and every- thing in the interior of the vault was up- set in the scuffle, and an unearthly racket was raised. The noise attracted passers by, and on their approach the would-be felons suddenly decamped, leaving Reedy on the floor of the vault exhausted, but still in possession of his money.

The enterprising advertiser proves that he understands how to buy, because in ad- vertising he knows how to seil.
Bread is the staff of human Ife, and ad- vertising is the staff of business.
A simple card may profitably stand years without change, but a sensational adver tisemcnt should be changed as ofien as you can get the printer to do it.
A heavy advertisement once is more than quadrupied in value by a card, pub- lished for a few months after, giving your
address.

Now is the time to think about
week to last und you can’t advertise on that

ing, and reflection should be foilowed by judicious action. To make a man realize an idea as you
realize it, is what is necessary to make him understand his needs. Advertisements should aim to place a matter so clearly be- fore the public that they see it as clearly as the advertiser does.
Enterprising people are beginning to learn the value of advertising the year around. The persistency of those who are not intimidated by the cry of ‘‘dull times, but keep their names ever before the pub- lic, will surely place them on the right side in the end.

‘“*Why,” said the druggist, ‘I cannot

sailor, ‘‘take off the odd and I'll pay you the even.” ‘‘Well,” returned the druggist, [‘* we
