A. TALK ON THE STEAMBOAT LINE f A new steamboat line established ' Lewes. Delaware, via the Breakwater, | by the lucommodating, genii 1 Capt. ' , Cline, an < Id steam boat manager for many ycsie, formerly captain of a large steamer that ran to the fishing , banks, and one to Lewes, for a paesenger freight service. In company with a guest from Pittsburg we took the ( trolley at Cape May, andu^a few min- 1 utes were whirled over to Cape Mar Point, near the old steamboat landing, which has been the acfene of great activity. Many years have passed since the late Downs Edmunds remarked to ( the writer, "We are going <o establish a steam t oat line that will astonish the natives." The steamer Republic | was the astonishment. Thousands of visitors came b-. her An amusing in- ' cid> nt came to my notice on her first | trip. A large shark about fifteen feet in length was caught and placed. at the landing/ alongside of it was a pair of ' pants, an old hat, a string w: th a pin hook attached. On a large card by the fish was this inscription : "This fish was caught by a little boy with this hook and string." "Come," said a lady, "ar.d 6ee this big fish that a little boy caught," and i some beli* ved the story. We boarded I the sts-nch little boat and soon her prow was heading for the land of I peaches. The day was fine and soon , Cape May beach was left iu the disi_ape may ueacn was text. iu uie uia-

i tance, and the waters that divide the • state of New Jersey and the State of Delaware was reached. The first objects of interest that caught our sight wi re large white buoys, one mile apar', pla ed there by the U. S. Government to establish the speed' of her mighty war vessels on their trial before they are accepted from the bands of the contractors. A short distance from -these, looms up the great Breakwater, with many piles of massive ' rocks used for ice breakers to protect vessels from the ice as it comes down 1 the Delaware Bay. This Breakwater 1 was years being constructed and mil- <

lions of mo ey expended to make a ' harbor of refuge for vessels from all I parts of the world. At times hundreds < . of vessels of all nationalities and all ' 5 siz e. from the ocean greyhound to 1 ) the small fishing smack, are anchored ) in the harbor. This breakwater was ' ■ built in thitty-five feet of water and I • extends for two miles or more in < | length. About two miles inland stands ' the old breakwater, built may years : ago. This like many old things, has t ' had its day, as the harbor inland is r j filling so tbat large draught vessels c cannot enter. By the way the stone S i quarry that furnished the rocks to 8 build these breakwaters is lurni'hing 1 the stone for the Cape May Jetties, c which are now under construction. 5 I About one mile south of the break- 1 ' water is Cape Henlopen, a dangerous ' point on which many vessels have j been wrecked and scores of lives lost- i F , ! It is called the vessels grave yard. | 8 . | The harbor < f refuge is sometimes a ^ harbor of destruction. With a gale J blowing from the northwest, a ship is | safer at sea than in thi6 harbor. At i 1 j one time eight vessels were lost in one w I northwest gale in this harbor. They I : were anchored and became unmanage- f ! able and dragged their anchors and all I '' became a mass of wreckage and sank I 9 I together and were a total loss, j The proprietor of the Windsor, Mr. a Creswell, was a seaman at that time. tl and saved his Jife by going up the J mast into the rigging and S. B. Wil-j son, of the Elberon, came near being I on the same vessels the boy that took ! his piai e being drowned

Still further south is the great sand | dome, the wonder of all beholders. I Acres of leautiful white sand lav I piled in great heighis and covering a large area of space. At one time a large forest lay back of these sand hills, now it is almost buried by the shifting Jsand. For years the wood of this forest has been used by the inhabitants of Lewes gratuitously until some were making merchandise of it and the U.S. Government being owner has put an embargo on that trade. Within the point of the cape the United States has established a large quarantine to receive sick mariners of all nations. West of these is the fi6h house, where the: manufacture the fish into oil and ft r- , tilizer. These Menhaden fishermen ' up all kinds of fish. For veers • they have preyed upon the waters uu j' til la we have been enacted to regulate j and save the food fish. Like some othe<s tbey respect no law, but sweep around ■ inlets until they had nearly ruined , the hook and line fishing. Last- sea- ' the concern went into the hands of , receiver. This season they are again business at the same old stand. Unthe law Ik enforced they will soon ; become as obnoxious as ever. Eternal vigilance must be kept by the followers of Ike Walton or the sport of fishing will be one of the sports of the past. West of tbeee is the Iron Pier built by the U. S. Government tor their use only. Still west iB the life saving station, and they havi plenty of work. * est of this is I^ilroad Pier, built by the late. Queen Ann Railroad ComThis is a substantial structure. Th» cars used To run down to the boat and unload thousands of psssengtn.

. who came direct from the South to t Cape May, making this resort the , nearest to Washington, Baltimore and . all other southern cities. The railroad . soon got after and bought rival boats, , and the entire equipments withdrew , the boats, closed up the. service and , the pier now stands as a monument of the greed of a rich monopoly, who bw- , lieve in a long haul for its passengers. West of this pier stands a pier built a syndicate of wealthy men, that put on a line of boats to run to Philadelphia for passenger and freight service. After a time the boats were taken off. The pier has changed several times. At this time it is used by steamers for coaling. From this pier the steamer Lina lands and receives her passengers and freight. We gladly took the hand of our old friend, Clarence Bebee, who keeps the House Jand Capt John Price, well known to many Cape May pilots. About two p. m. the fanners began to come in with loads of peaches, water melons, apples and other farming products for the Cape^May market At :30 the Lina was loaded from stem to stern witti this product, casting off her , she was soon [churning her way to Cape May Point arriving about 5 p. m. The Lina has been put on this route as an exi eriment. If successful the owner intends to put on a j larger boat. The present one ia a | propeller, making the distance in about one hour and twenty minutes | shore to shore. She should receive the patronage of Cape May and I Lewistowo people. It is a fine trip to those who enjoy a trip on the ocean and love g< od peaches. Capt. j Cline makes every one fei-1 that they in safe hands by his long experience and good management. Hie son, who is purser, is a gentleman that has inherited his father's genial traits. We bespeak for this new enterprise large patronage and hope they will take a trip on the Steamer I.ina. j. R.
