In making his charge ciitor Campbell said that some time ago a colored woman, who came to Ocean City from Cape May, died of alcoholic poisoning, after stating she had obtained the liquor at Mrs. Davis'. Subsequently, the prosector continued, a fight had started in Mrs. Davis' place between Adam Daniels, known as “Alabama Joe.” and Sidney Pugh, both colored. "Alabama Joe” went home for a gun and shot Pugh when he returned. Pugh died shortly after of his wounds and "Alabama

That no one was killed when s bus of the Shore Service line struck the bulkhead leading to the Middle Thoroughfare Bridge last Friday afternoon, was s miracle. The bus. which was traveling from Wildwood to Atlantic City, was driven by Jere Delaney, Jr, of Sea Isle City. About fifty yards from the bridge the bus would not answer to the steering wheel and plunged over the embankment. The only thing that prevented It from plunging into the rising tide of Mlddlfe Thoroughfare was a heavy bulkhead. The front wheels of the bus tore gaping holes through the bulkhead, but the vehicle was brought to a sudden stop. Some Idea of the force of the collision can be gained from the fact that the seats, bolted to the floor of the car, were torn looee. The passengers were tossed in a mass around the driver. William Lumas, a 13-year-old boy. living on Central Ave, Ocean City, broke a pane of glass in a door to allow the passengers to get out. The front end of the bus was badly smashed. The injured passengers were taken out the emergency door In the rear of the
car.
They were token into the home of Mrs. William Hansom, which sras located only a few yards from where the accident occurred. If the accident had occurred a moment earlier It Is quite possible that this frame building would have been destroyed or If It had occurred s fraction later, the bus would have plunged over t bridge Into the Thoroughfare. Women Hotorists Fir*t m Scene Mias Dorothy H. Hood snd her mother, of Melraee Park, were the first motorists to reach the scene of the accident. Mias Hood, who Is spending her vacation In South Ocean City, took Mrs. E. Bray, an aged woman and her daughter. Miss E. Bray, both of 2733 River Avenue. In their car to Scotch Hall. Ocean City. It was at first thougnt that Mrs. Bray would succumb to her injuries. She received s fractured rib and collar bone, lacerations of the head snd was bruised about the body. Mrs. Bray has s good chance for recovery, the officials of the Institution state. Her daughter. Mlse E. Bray, is still under treatment here. Though no bones were broken she suffered from shock snd was badly bruised. While Mias Hood was taking the victims to the hospital, she stopped at Fifty-first and Central Avenue and Informed Dr. John Service and Dr. John Krall. two Philadelphia physicians, of the accident. The physicians, who were shout to go bathing, hurriedly summoned a motor car and rushed to the scene to administer first
Digging away the sand from the end of the bus. the broken steering knuckle was visible. Lilt of Injured Of the moet seriously Injured, three are In the Atlantic City Hospital.

Much credit is due to Police Chief Johnson, who arrived on the scene shortly after the accident occurred, for the manner In which the Injured were cared for. Motor cars were .quickly commandeered and Chief Johnson, using bis own car quickly rushed the injured peiaoi.il to Ocean City and other nearby places for treatment. Passenger Describes Accident Mias Helen Dellacure. of Cape May City, who was Injured on the hand and foot, stated: "We were going along the road, not any faster than at any other place, when suddenly the bus seemed to skid to one side. The persons on one side of the bus were thrown toward the opposite side. Then we felt as though we were going down s big hill, and then an awful crash happened. "It seemed as though people were tossed completely over their seats snd all piled up In a heap. I thought surely some one was killed. The men tried to get the women out flrat. It all happened so quickly I really did cot have time to thick." Delaney, the driver of the car. was badly shaken up. He was also cut and bruised. He stated that he was traveling st a moderate rate of speed when be discovered that he could not control the car. Though he attempted to apply the brakes the car lunged over the side of the road, plunged down the embankment and landed against the bulkhead. "That I am here." he stated, "and many others are able to tell about the accident. Is due lo the bulkhead. If the bulkhead had not stopped the bus it surely would have turned over snd rolled Into the Thoroughfare, and without question. many fatalities would have occurred." Driver Held Under Bail Delaney was held under 8500 ball to await the outcome of the Injuries of the passengers and an Investigation. There is little doubt that the accident was caused by a broken steering knuckle. TIMES reporters were on the scene of the accident before the injured had been removed. The front wheels of ths bus had plunged through the bulkhead and were partially buried In the sand.
Florida Investors Purchase Making hay while the sun shines evideaUy is the adage of many of the investors now interested In Ocean City real esUte. Making hay consists of Increasing the bank roll according to the ttnount of the property bought and sold. In the parlaace of the stock exchange a rising market is a bull market. Evidently the eame buP lowered 1U horns st Thirtyfourth Street snd raised the prices along the enUre stretch to the Gardens. The beach front snd Central Avenue south is also the scene of much acUvity. Another noticeable feature was the sale of Improved properties. For a time Improved properUes, excepting beachfront und hotels, attracted little atten-
tion.
Among the larger sales of the week end was the sale of the Normandie Hotel by Max Zlrnmertn for $250,000. Herbert R. Smith sold the Lawrence Lear property, on Asfcury Arenue. J. E. Stanger, of Bridgeton, was the buyer. Mr. Stanger also purchased the properties on Moorlyn Terrace from "'nun's restaurant to the house ixt to the corner, for 8180,000. Max Zimmerman sold 20 lots in the Gardens for $70,000 to a Philadelphia buyer for Sol Hamburger. The recent sale of the 100 feet of beachfront, at Tenth Street, which waa made by Walter Kuehn for 23.500 per front foot, established a new record for beachfront values. It was authentically reported that several syndicates composed of Florida Investor* are In the market for Ocean City properties. Ewing T. Ccraon bought the building at 767 Asbury Avenue In which his own office U situated. The price was about 190.000. The former owner of the building is Mrs. L. S. Scull. The building, which Mr. Corson has occupied for the last six years snd in which Joseph Scull did business for 30 years previously. Is two stories high snd contains four apartments snd three stores. The lot Is 40 feet by 100 feet Through tne office of Clayton B. Roberts, 100 feet on the south corner of Seventeenth Street wss sold with riparian rights to Mrs. Mary B. Moffett, of Philadelphia, for $94,000. Other transfers of moment through Mr. Roberts' office were; Fifty feet on the south corner of Twenty-first Street, sold with riparian rights to Mary Moffett of Philadelphia, for 137.500.
Bible Conference Concluded Sunday With the talk of Dr. James Gray, president of the Moody Bible Inktltute. of Chicago, the Ocean City Bible Conference came to a successful close on Sunday night. The conference began August 5. The services of the conference Sunday night were held In the Hippodrome In conjunction with the First Baptist Church, of which the Rev. Dr. Shelley Is pastor. The conference was well attended throughout. Those In charge feel K was successful and profitable to all concerned. V iny denominations a;.1 many States of the union were represented.
