m. for Ninth and Castle; first car from
Ninth and Princess will start at 6.45 a.

a twenty minute -schedule will be run,
passing Front and Princess on the hour
twenty minutes past and twenty min
utes before every hour.
From 9 a. m. until 8.20 p. m., a ten
minute schedule will be run, and from
8.20 p. m., until 10.S0 p. m., there will
be a twenty minute schedule; cars pass
ing Front and Princess streets ten min
utes past the hour; thirty minutes past
the hour, and ten -minutes before the
next hour. ' " -
The last through cars will leave the.
various termini at the following times:
Tenth and Princess, 10.25; Ninth and
Castle,10.20;Hilton,10.35 p.m; A later car
will leave Hilton at 10.55 for j Front and

On Sundays the cars start out at 9

The company has had a large number
of time tables printed for posting up in?
all public places, showing the passing
times at Front and Ptincess streets, and
the leaving times at the three' termini,
with the connections made by each car,
. Work was begunj in earnest on ' the
Park a day or two ago, and the com
pany have under consideration plans for
small " depot and refreshment - stands.
As soon as the workmen can be spared
from the rush on the freight line, work
on the Park will be hurried through. A
great many ladies arid children visit the
Park as it now is. every day, and in the
evening many take the cars for the sake
of the ride. The Park will, shortly,
furnish a pleasant place of recreation for
nurses and children, and as soon as the
hot weather comes on in earnest, a ride
out to the park in the evening will prove
most refreshing after the heat of the
day. ' "- , .
