A laundered collar on a bathing sui as one of the things seen on thi strand yesterday. It is safe lo say tin wearer remained on the strand. Btarcli and salt water do not mix lo ad< One of the handsomest suits seen season was that worn by Mm. Edmund Norris, of Chestnut Hill, Philudelpbi Mm. Norris has a strikingly figure, and her natty suit of blue while striped silk, trimmed in band* of plain blue, made one of the pretties, pictures on the strand and in the sui

yesterday.

Edna Morehead, one of the prell; girls who is daily seen in the sui earn a golden brown suit euibroidereil ith French knots, and is one of the happiest of the many young maiden,

the shore.

‘Jack” Knox, the popular New York caterer who with his lamily is .lopping al the Columbia, went in bathing yesterday, and the sand bai has grown appreciably since. Mr. Knox is a dating swimmer when he slaris, but be don’t often start. Over Broadway there will be a good dea. of doubt about “Jack” going ueai tin ater al all, but evidence U a-plenlv that he did go in the ocean, and tin stunts he perpetrated there amazed the idest swimmers in the “pond." Mary Eastwick and a bevy of young girls were nolicable on the Strand yesterday. Little Miss Eastwick has a wealth of golden hair and a particulareel face. She was dressed *tn a blue bathing suit, elaborately trimmed with red. Costume and wearer attracted much attention yesterday among the younger set. Dorothy Woodward of Bt. Louis, Is spending the summer at the Btockton. Dressed in a blue suit trimmed in red, she was busily building sand castles yesterday. 8he w as attended by her nurne and the little Mb. was having a royal good Ume watching the incoming Ude wash away the work of her busy little bands. Castles in the air do not fall morequickly than did Dorothy's sand ones. Maijorie Bond, the little daughter of Mm. George Bond, accompanied bod handsome mother on the beach. is dressed in oonvenUona! black, but the little tot wore a garnet suit, quite cute and in keepi|« With her yearn. Bhe is one of the very pretUest of the many pretty little ones on the strand.

Miss MaUlda Gibbs,^outh Carolina, was an attraeUve figure in the surf. Miss Gibbs remains in the water and thoroughly enjoys the sport. He. “crown of beauty,” an abundance ol dark brown hair, flowing freely in an .bundanoe of luxurious loveliness, was a striking featureef the bathing hour. Again Mr. O’Brien of the Virginia got mixed up with the breaker* and his bathing suit. Now the many admirer* of the manly gracefulness of Mr. O'Brien among the gentler sei posiUve the oonvuluUons of the cerebrum are deeper today from thinking ail day yesterday of some device that will change Mr O’Brien's answe

A Jolly crabbing and fishing party went out on Capt. Clarence Bchellenger's launch “The Madeline" yester. day. They caught a hig haul of sea food and had a royal good time. Those In the party were Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Cohen of 206 Ocean street ; Dr. P. J. Grime, Mark Abrams, Mr. Einfeid, (fan Rae W. Cohen, Miss L. Cohen, nd Lewis Cohen, 2d.

After half a day out Joe came to life, ably assisted by three or four buckets of cold water and sundry kicks. He at once claimed to be Mr. John Hart owner of the ship. The mate had do humor In his composition. When be looked upon the ragged, bruised and bloated man before him and heard his declaration, be didn't laugh at the absurdity of the thing. He Simply hauled off and knocked him down and left him lying underfoot for the next hour. Then be Incidentally mentioned the matter to the captain. The captain wasn't feeling very gay and wanted something to liven him He therefore bad Joe Haines before him. It was with painful efforts, iwlug to swollen Ups, that Joe delared he had been drugged and shanghaied and brought aboard ol lx own ships.
