BROOK8IDE PARK.
Our Street Railway.
We availed ourself of the opportu
nlty and the beautiful weather yes
terday afternoon to visit Brooks! le
Park, where, in company with that
most estimable gentleman, S.W.Huff,
Esq , superintendent of the Raleigh
Street Railway Company, we had a
most pleasant and Interesting time.
We found Mr. Huff occupied in super-
Intending affairs at the end of Polk
street, just at the entrance to Oak
wood cemetery, where a curve In the
railway is beine built. From this
point to the upper entrance to Brook'
side Park the cross ties have been
laid and the extension of the road to
the place will soon be an accomplish
ed fact. The cars will be run thiough
most romantic portion of the
grounds, crossing the dam. We are
informed by Mr. Huff that if the ar
rangements now on foot are fully con
summated, the extension of the line
will be made through the property
of the Oakdale Lind Company, inak
ing a most Beautiful and delightful
cirouit.
In the park, evidences of most en
ergetio work are apparent on all
sides. There is a perfect transform-
tlon in all the surroundings, and no , Mr. G. Rosenthal has gone to Phil
more beautiful Spot can be found adelphia on business,
anywhere for the summer enjoyment I We are pleased to see Mr. J. R. For
of our people. Several rustic brid es
span the creek at different points, i
jTne pond j8 furuiBhed with a boat
for the entertainment of such as dt
aire it. At several points rustic and
comfortable seats for visitors are lo
cated Swings for children are hung
at different points, and everything is
being done to render it second to but
few pleasure retreats lu this section
of the country.
Mr. Huff says the street car cou
pany is fully determined to leave
nothing undon9 to subserve the high
est expectations of our people, and he
tuily hopts and expects that their
efforts will be highly appreciated
As
the receipts of the ioad justify it,
there will be additional improvements
and extensions, and it is most earn
estly hoped that the receipts daring
the summer will e able tue company
to carry cut some contemplated im
provements.
We are much gratified at the tone
of confident hope expressed by Mr.
Huff as to the general outlook of the
company as regards its efforts to give
us a first class system Of course it
cannot be counted upon that the full
measure of expectation can be real
ized without the .lapse of time and
proper returns All agree that much
has been done. There is room for
still further and more extended pro
gress. The system is here to stay, if
energy on the part of those who con
trol ii and even a reasonable patron
age will insure it. That this will be
rendered, there is no room now to
doubt.
And now we may be pardoned for a
personal allusion. Mr. Huff came
alnong us a yonngaud comparatively
unknown gentleman. He has made
many friends in Raleigh, and his ad
ministration of the affairs of the com
pany has been as perfect as possible
under the circumstances. He is fully
up to all the requirements of his po
sition and personally superintends all
the work possible. Our system of
electric railway is second to none in
the country, considering the nize of
our city. Let us rejoice at its progress
and do all in our power to sustain it.
A Flue Excursion.
Accept ing th-. very generous offer
of the Raleigh and Gaston Railroad,
the teachers and pupils of the Insti
tution for the Deaf and Dumb and
the Blind went down to Frauklinton
yesterday on an excursion. On ar
rival, the day was spent in innocent
amusements among which was a base
ball game between the deaf mates
and the Franklinton team. The ex
cursionists returned to the city last
evening highly delighted with their
trip.
