Show The Amusement and Financial Pnlse A DEMOCRAT reporter in a conversation with Captain Douris at Garfield last evening learned that the trees set out by the railroad company are doing finely and though a great deal of trouble had been experienced this summer in getting the water upon them comparatively few had died from drouth To the question of how this seasons business compared with former years Captain Douris informed in-formed our reporter that the attendance at the lake was fully as large as heretofore hereto-fore but the scarcity ofmoney and general gen-eral stagnation in business had greatly lessened the demand for refreshments I and the sales over the bar and ou tlie boat were not near so large as they were last summer Another thing was that visitors at the lake provide themselves with lunches more than they used to and with the exception of liquid refreshments refresh-ments have very few calls to make upon him Garfield seems to be the favorite bathing resort and catches the hulk of the business |
