I nova PLAN H il, Ifl JAMESTOWH EXPOSITION Northfork. Va., Aug 13 Something now under the eun it the "Water Belt Line" that has just been projected as at a means of transportation between the Jamestown Exposition grounds and the several cities and points of interest around Hampton Roads and Tidewater Virginia. The "belt line" on land, by steam or trolley cars, is a familiar institution in many cities, but here for the first time has been organized a water belt line, boats instead of cars being used. Mr. H. F. McQarvice. now of New York, is at the head of the company. Mr. McGarvie. well known at former exposition as an oricinator of novel concession ideas, on a recent visit to the exposition cities conceived the idea of establishing the Watar Rait T in. The picturesque and historic Interest of a water trip to the Exposition grounds appealed to him, and after a survav of the territory he perceived the possibilities of such a belt line and acted Dromotlv upon the suggestion. Splendid observation steamers will be run on this novel route. Each steamer will carry about 1600 passengers with out crowding. A regular schedule of trips will be made, the boats starting from Portsmouth, the Norfolk Navy Yard, Newport News Old Point Comfort, Fortress Monroe and other historic points enroute, and completing the one-way trip at a fine pier to be built out into the waters of Hampton ttoads directly in front of the Exposition site. Boats will run every half hour. A unique and valuable features of tha coupon tickets on these trips, giving the passenger the privilege of disembarking at any or all of tha stoDDincr nlacet mentioned and taking the next boat or any boat later in the day. This will give opportunity for seeing all the sights, The round trip to the Exposition in this manner will be full of excitement. These Water Belt Line trips are to be in no sense on the order of the average cheap excursion," where the riffraff and and the bobtail of humanity usually take possession of the boat; on the contrary they will appeal to the best class of people, no liquors being sold aboard and no rowdyism being permited The "Water Belt Line" is so.named be cause of the fact that the steamers leav ing the company's wharf on their daily schedule, every hour, will make a complete circuit of the points of interest in and about Hampton roads. Besides the regular trips, the coin .ony is planning to have numerous excursions to such places as Jamestown Island, York town and other points of historic inteie-.t in and around Tidewater, Virginia. At Yorktown, where Lord Cornwall) surrendered to George Washington, is a beautiful monument erected by the gov ernment to commemorate the great vict ory. There stands the first custom house ever opened in the United States. The ruins of the old church built in 1660 are still to be seen. Of equal interest is the trip up the James river, on the way to Richmond, to Jamestown Island, where the first English settlement was made. Here can be seen the ruined church tower and the old grave yard with its historic tombs and inscrip tions. The peninsula between the James and the York rivers has been the scene of more bloody conflicts than haveoccured on any territory of similar size in the new World.
