five steamers, the largest, swift- est and most luxurious on fresh waters. The company builds none but steel vessels of the strongest pattern, thus secur- ing, with the addition of suffi- cient watertight compartments, practical indestructiblety.
While all the newest marine ideas of reál merit are invari- ably made use of, the policy of the management is well defined in the uniformity of general de- sign. The steamers are roomy side-wheelers, propelled by the Clyde patterned feathering wheels, thereby developing a marvelous speed without the slightest jar or noise. Their forward and after saloons, of solid mahogany, are magnificently appointed and tastefully decorated, and their rooms and parlors replete with wire and hair mattresses, Pullman blankets, electric MOONLIGHT ON THE LAKE. lights, etc. The lower saloons are devoted to dining halls, which entirely separate the culinary departments from the main cabins. The cuisine, which is equal to that of any first-class hotel, includes all the luxuries of the season, and the price charged barely meets the outlay. In fact, it may not be egotistical to say that the Detroit and Cleveland Steam Navigation Co. offers to persons of fastidious tastes the only solid satisfaction to be found in inland travel.
THE LAKE ERIE DIVISION.
B ETWEEN Detroit and Cleveland may be called the main stem of the company's lines. Operated between two large cities, a sufficiently steady patronage is received to warrant the best of service, and to this end two mam- moth sister ships have just been built. Their extraordinary size and grandeur has placed the route in the front rank of that comparatively small array of trunk lines to which travelers of experience look forward with pleasant anticipations. We may describe the new City of Detroit, the latest addition, as being 300 feet long by 72 feet wide and 16 feet molded depth, with hull divided into nine water-tight com partments. The boilers are four in number, and carry 110 lbs. of steam. The engine is a compound beam of 2700 horse-power. The grand saloon is of solić mahogany, and contains a double tier of state-rooms connected by a broad gallery It is 240 feet in length, and its dome rises 20 feet overhead. There are over 140 state-rooms and parlors, cach lighted by an electric lamp. The City of Cleveland is similar in every respect. A steamer leaves either city late in the evening and arrives at her destination long before breakfast, making connections with all arriving and departing trains, and forming by far the shortest and cheapest as well as the most delightful route between many far distant cities. Steady travelers, usually con- fined to the hot, dusty, noisy rail car, always avail themselves of the charming quiet, cool fresh air and luxury of a full night's rest afforded by this water route. The Sunday night trips, from June to September, are very popular and have proved a great convenience.
Passengers intending to continue their voyage ou the steamers of the Lake Huron Division may so plan their departure from Cleveland as to make direc: connections at Detroit, or have a day for sight seeing The Tuesday or Thursday

steamer from Cleveland finds the other almost ready to depart, while the Friday or Sunday steamer will necessitate a stay in Detroit till evening. In either case the Lake Huron steamer will be found at the Company's dock on the arrival of the Lake Erie steamer, and passengers may at once transfer to and take breakfast on the former, which they can make their home.
Passengers arriving in Detroit by rail or otherwise, on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and intending to take the Lake Huron steamer the next morning, may at once proceed on board and occupy their state-rooms free.of extra charge, thus becoming settled down and in a position to enjoy, as a spectator, the excit- ing scenes incident to departure the next day.
THE LAKE HURON DIVISION
E XTENDS from Detroit to Mackinac Island on the Straits of Mackinac, a distance of 350 miles, mostly through Lake Huron. From Detroit to Port Huron, at the foot of the lake, the scenery is most charming. embracing the headwaters of the Detroit River, the placid Lake. St. Clair, the far-famed Government ship canal, the famous St. Clair Flats fishing and shooting ground and the majestic St. Clair River. From Port Huron, all suggestion of land disappears on the starboard bow, and only shows faintly on the port or American side. Occasionally, when the steamer approaches a way port, the passengers have time to gather some ideas of the characteristics and occupations of the inhabitants of this purely lumber region, but for the most part of the twenty-four hours spent on Lake Huron, they will experience the sensation of being in midlake.
Considerable interest attáches to many way ports because of their note as camping or resorting spots. At St. Clair or Port Huron clubs are constantly located from July to September, and at Oscoda, Alpena, Cheboygan and St. Ignace bodies of hardy men may frequently be seen embarking or debarking. Those leaving the steamer are making for some inland lake or stream: the others need naught but the trophies of their skill to tell of their whereabouts during the preceding two weeks. In fact, the whole of the country surrounding Mackinac offers endless attractions to the adventurous. Well-stocked rivers and lakes abound, and the interminable forest is still overrun with furred and feathered creatures.
After touching at Mackinac, the steamers cross to the freight terminus of the route at St. Ignace. This occupies from four to six hours, and those who wish to return at once can, without laying over, see considerable of the main points of interest at the famous National Park, if they engage one of the charioteers for a drive.
This delightful round trip of 920 miles from Cleveland or zoo miles from Detroit occupies 412 days from the former or 23 days from the latter point. It costs but a trifle more than $4.00 per day all told, and at that price is most emphatically within the reach of all. You cannot go anywhere and compass so much enjoyment and solid comfort by the way. A summer trip should be planned to get all the quiet and fresh

air possible. Such complete relief is only found by taking a water trip, where the scenery is varied and attractive, and there is ample time for a good look at every interesting object.
THE COST OF A ROUND TRIP
C ANNOT be intelligently shown without some explanation. By the company's advanced system, meals and berths are not included in the price of a ticket, and patrons are at liberty to provide for themselves if they so desire. Berths are in rooms, and cost $1.oo for the upper or $1.50 for the lower, on each steamer. no matter if the trip be one or two nights. The whole room accommodates three persons and costs $2.50. Mcals cost 50 cents each and may be estimated by the time card. These expenses are invariable, except for children under five, when the meals are 25 cents. Our table of costs is not guaranteed, but the figures are more likely to fall below than rise above the estimate.

MACKINAC ISLAND.
T" NIE rockgirt, fairy isle, sitting like an emerald gem in the clear, pellucid wave, rises majestically from the crystal waters, which cover but cannot conceal the glistening, white pebbly depths beneath. It is the central point of the three great lakes. It knows no land breeze, hence the winds are always cool and refreshing; they never cease flowing. Its area is over two thousand acres, of which the national park and military reservation comprise about nine hundred. The natural scenery is unsurpassed. Nature seems to have exhausted herself in the manifold objects of interest which meet the eye in every direction. The lover of Mother Earth will hardly grow weary of wandering through its shaded glens, and climbing over its rugged rocks, each day bringing to light some new object of beauty and interest. Long- fellow, in his poem of " Hiawatha," has put into English verse some of its wild Indian legends, which people every rock and glen with spectral habitants. If the poetic muses are ever to have a new Parnassus in America, they should certainly fix on Mackinac Island. Hygeia, too, should place her temple here, for it is one of the purest, dryest, clearest and most healthful of atmospheres.
