In front of the hotel the boatmen are busy with their boats stowing away all of the concomitants of a day's fishing, accord- ing to the ethics of the region. Each boat contains two besides the oarsman. Early breakfasts are in order for those who are going ti^hmg. Let us make read^• '"or the day's s])ort !

Th'^se afllici'cd with this terrible disease should lose no time in visiting Alexandria Bay, as il is unknown here. gsP*«W»%«^,,^^ ntiUsuimi^' ryoulcs Ic iHc 5f. liawrcr)ce l\iVi 2r. loca ted bel Tiu' village of Alcxaiulria Hay is upon the soutlieni mainland ol awrcnce River, twrive miles • lyton and thirty-six miles bi the St. L ovv C () a.xAe U^densDurg, The i;i -at inihix of people from all directioiis and the immense popularity of tlie Thousand Island region ,-f the St. Lawrence River, together with the fact that Alexandria Bay is the loveliest river resort m the w(^r Id, h, ive been in- strumental in bringing aoout a new system of train service from the principal centres in the east and west. The Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg Railroad Company recognizing the fact that to take care of the enormous business already in existence, and to create new business, it was necessary to inaugurate a fast train service, has introd-"ed limited trains to the Thousand Islands, as follows: From New York City in conjunction with the N. vv or k Central & Hudson River Railroad, a fast train leaves the Grand Central Depot every night at 6.30. This train has elegant dining-cars attached, and the meals served therein are equal to those found in the best restaurants in the city. Dinner is l ,rved immediately after leaving Grand Central Depot. The train only makes six stops between New York and Clayton — distance, 336 miles — being run '^xpressly for the Thousand Island travel. It 85 reaches Cliivton every day at 5.15 a ni. and Alexandria Hay at a. 111. and l)asseii^frs are landed in iixui <,( the Tiiof-AND IsLWi) IIo.si.. reaehiiie the lioicl in time for Ijieakfast. Retuininir, this fast train leaves Alexandria P.av f n>ni the Ilk near the Tikh'sam) Island iIoi;sK,, by steu mcr at ^.25 p.m. Al Clayton, u miles illstant, th.- fast train with elcjr.,nt Wai^ner sleeping ears, is waiting, and soon after th<' arrival of the steamer at Clayton, the train leaves that point tor XeA' York with ve'v few stops, arriving at the Grand Central Depot at 7 a.m., in time for breakfast. This train is run expressly for the benefit of tourists, and the excellent facilities afforded, together with the fast time and avoidance of stops, is greatly appreciated. Ancjther good feature •M is the fact, tha' the train runs every day in each direction, and also carries the last mails t > and trom the City ut New V<;rk. This • aiii {masses Albany at 10.40 ji.m., connecting; at that point vviili the train leavic.^ IJoston at ,^ p.m. via the Boston ^: Albany Railroad, and passini; Worcester at S .' ; p.m. and Springfieirl at '0.05 p.m.. and bringing people from all points in N _vv Knghmd. Tile train service froi > tlir West is ecpially good. The fast train which is known as i.m- Si. Lawrence Steamboat [express, the tourist's favorite train, leaves N'iagaia Falls every day at 8.10 p.m.. Suspension iJridge at S.;,o p.m. and Roi hester at ri p.m., with elegant through sleeping-cars tor Clayton. This train makes immediate connection at Niagara I'alls with trains for Chicago, St. Louis, Toledo, Cincinnati, Detroit and all Western cities. It atY(jrds passengers a splendid view of Niagara Falls and the wild romantic scenery of the Niagara River in tlu- vicinity of Lewiston ; thence runs along the south shore 01 Lake Ontario, making only five st( [)s for a flistance of 250 miles to Clayton, which is reached c.t 5.45 a.m. Passengers arrive ai Alexandria Bay 6.55 a.m.. in time for breakfast. Westbound, this train leaves Alexandria Bay by steamer in the evening about 9 o'clock and arrives at Suspeiision Bridge the next morning at !o.;^o. Niagara Falis, 10.40 a.m., making immediate connections for al' Western cities. The day train service is equally good. Fast trains avoiding 5tops and carrying through drawing-room cars to Clayton are run from Niagara Falls, Rochester, Syracuse, L'tica, New York and Albany. Passengers leaving Saratoga or Richfield Springs in the morning arrive at Alexandria Bay early in the afternoon. The Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg Railroad publish a beautiful book of 160 pages, large octavo size, containing eleven valuable maps and over 100 fine illustrations. This book is mailed free upon receipt of ten (10) cents postage to any address. Visitors to the St. Lawrence River, will find this book 87 vali:ahlt' aiul iiUerestin^, as it illu^tr.iies ami cicscribcs llie St. Lawrence River belter than any other p..bli( .iii..n. Steamers leave at oiu e upon arrival of these trains tor Alexandria Bay, stoppinii^ at intermediate landings. Passengers ir.ay reach the river ujion Sunciay luoininirs upon the fast nevvs- pajter train, by which the metiopolitan vSunday publications reach readers among the islands \>\ n(jiMi. The elegant steamer "St. Laurence" makes four round trips daily between Alexaridria Lav and Clayton, connecting at the latter point with all trains oi the K., W. ^^ (). R.R. from all points east ami west, and with steam terry-ljoats from the ^P^;y^.: -,''v>. ' lO Canaciian city of Kingston. A daily line of stages runs to and fiom trains at Redwood upon the Ogdensburg Div'ision of the R., W. .^ O. R.R. and Alexandria Bay.
