A. P. Coles is authority for the state-
ment that a movement Is now on foot
to build a large pavilion on the sum-
mit of Mount Franklin and to build a
cable tine from the center of the city
to the base of the mountain from
which an inclined plane will carry the
passengers to the pavilion where they
may enjoy themselves thoroughly.
It will be run by the best people of
the city-and will not be a beer gar-
den 'as has been suggested at times be-
fore. It will be a place where a man
may take his family or his sweetheart
