The owners of Congress Hsll, at the request of Colonel Cake, propose to erect at the close of the stsaon a handsome and roomy casino on the lawn between the ocean wing of the hotel and Reach aveune. The building will be Ml feci wide and ITS feet in length and contain a ball room 60 by 180 feet on the lawn aide of the casino, with kitchens on the rear. The stage will I e 24 by SO, on the south side of the ball room, which will also be used as the audience room for entertainments. A cafe w ill be made of tbc room SO by 50 west of the hall room, giving easy access to the kitchens, and thu* afford excellent service. This ia a movement iu

the right direction.

OCR attention has been called to s paragraph which recently appeared in the Hhtv, and upon searching it oat we disco vet s misquoted three line paragraph from the Star. As Un W.ite distorts things thus at the start, so It distorts and exaggerates all the way through, which proves how Utile it knows about the condition of the tiras’s bnalneas. Nor was It ‘' understood among the people of Cape May that one of the present owners made the pnblic to believe he was out of businm In order that tbc outstanding accounts might be cleared dp.” The public who knoi the Stab and its publishers know such s thing never occurred. Again, neither member of the firm "would Jv mUing to quit the concern at • considerably lower than what the investment coat." Dear Brother, let thy spirit be troubled.

o the Courier’• Intimation

that Camden may conclude to go In and carry off the Republican Congressional

nomination for another term,

lower eount'e* get into a wrangle over the question, the Cape May Star aay* "Camden might act so, bul it 1* not ex]wctcd to be to absorbingly piggish. We expect It to do itself credit by magnanimously turning in for Cape May ami aiding it to obtain the recognition due h." We assume that tbc Star refer* to Hun. C. A. Bergen, one of lu dislinguUhed summer residents, when it asks for recognition for Cape May.

gish" about us in this matter.—Camdir. Cape May esteems Congressman Bergen very highly. He has made and is making an excellent record, but he baa too much gumption to attempt that dangerous and often f ital trial fur a third term. We do mil fail to notice, however, the Ceurier'i wonderful magnanimity In so freely placing Hon. C. A. Bergen at our disposal as a partial Cape May County contribution to the lUt representatives in' Congress from the First Congressional district, but while we have almost come to look upon Mr. Bergen as “ one of us," yet we greatly fear that Cape May's hardy sons will prefer to be represented by one of their own number who has borne the standard aloft In the beat of the conflict fur many a year, and who la able iu learning ami exporieuce to oomiwte honorably and successfully with any who may be brought against him. The number of Cape May county braves of whom this may be said is not necessarily limited But why all this talk T A whole year will elapse before people will become much Interested iu this matter.
