Show How New Yorkers Spend Sunday. Hot does New York spend Sunday? Sun-day? What does this city of 4,000,-000 4,000,-000 souls, not more than half a million mil-lion of whom are in the country, do to pass the hot day of rest in the months when "everybody is out oi town?" Nowhere else is there such variety open to the man whose purse is neither deep nor heavy; to the family which has to take account of its coins because it has little of the paper denomination the large bills of commerce to trouble, itself with. For half a dollar it can sail 100 or 150 miles on the most beautiful river in the world, or as many miles on a charming inland sea, or half as far on the salt Atlantic itself. For 10 cents each way it can go to the seashore, sea-shore, and for half that sum has the choice of 60 splendid trolley rides in as many directions. To all these advantages ad-vantages the New Yorker is alive at least if the evidence of deserted streets affords any index. New York Sub. |
