MONDAY. AUGUST 31, l«ll. TbU U Uie lut Dailt Star for the gtj MAsen ol 1S0I. Our paper has paused soother most successful season sod It counts Among Its hosts of friends nearljr erery onr who has mingled in the season's enjoyment. We hare endeavored to picture faithfully the summer life. We have aimed to add to the pleasure of all our visitors, and we bar* desired to be accurate and just In compliment as well as in news. In the details of tbe work our efforts may be best described as “complete.” With the exception of arrivals of a few smaller bouses, there has been scarcely a hotel or villa guest whose arrival has not been noted, and as accurately as possible. This feature, and the complete cottage, church and society directory, has made of ths Daily Stars complete guhle to guests of our city, sod a needed convenience to strangers. It is tbe only paper of which this may Ixt sald> consequently tbe only one here which fulfills its mission faithfully. We have borne in mind the ancient motto, that a thing not worth doing well is not worth doing at all, and we have tbe satisfaction of knowing that our efforts have been pretty generally appreciated. We desire to thank our frieoda, including practically tbe whole number ol business men, cottagers, and many other visitors, for the liberality they have shown in tbe support of their favorite paper. We are always glad to be relieved of tbe press of work which comes with the issuing of our daily edition, but thi 1 feeling Is not unlinged with sadness. We have been interested inthc work fo r a great many seasons, and have found it more pleasant with each recurring summer time, because our circle of ae. quaintance among our summer visitors constantly widens, and esc'i addition puts us more In touch with the summer gayety and plraaure. When the closing lime comes, however, there is the unhappiness of parting, aevering the silken chains whicb lure bound us so pleasantly to so many, and settling back to common-place things, tbe regular rout ing. Rummer life at Cape May is Ideal, if trouble and care are not forgotten by visitors to this favored spot, when all Is brightness and beauty, then circumstances can scarcely arise, under whicb they may be relieved of their burdens, if they have any. Tbe conditions of life and its surroundings are oonduclve to sentiment. Rtrong and abiding friendships arc formed, not easily to be broken. Men judge each other as men, and according to their natural claims and not so much by their titles and wealth. Ah, summer life at Cape May is 'the very acme and pitch of life,” and we bate to part with it But so It g we; and, dear readers and friends we yield to tbe inflexible custom, and we ps^t with you this moroiug with the kindest wishes and feelings toward you all.

Cake and Cogrtes Hall are almost synonymous terms and under the' magic of his touch life, gayety and success, leap each aeaaon into being at Congress Hall,and each season seems destined to eclipse tbe previous ones. Our first recollections of Cape May include Congress Hall and CoL Cake,and we enjoy it as a personal triumph to see the return of tbe halcyon days when this grand hotel is again the summer home of the great of the land, and its halls thronged with beautiful and distinguished ladles andtgallaut and prominent gentlemen.

Yesterday tbe Philadelphia Retard contained an article on "Our WellKnown Twins,” among whom were tbe ■ of Luther and Willie Price, sous of our townsman N. C. Price, and Cape May 1 ada. It reads as follows: TWINS IN' Jot'RKALI*U. Id Priooeton nerer had better play>n its foot-ball team than Luther E. William C. Pfi6, both of whom are on the locii staff of the l‘reu. Both are good baseball players, and as short stop Luther Price has very few aupeiiors, except In the profession. At a half back he Is daring and capable. Both are clever writers and have done meritorious work for ITu Heard, Timet and 1'rtf. They look so mucli alike that the city editor is oerer sure which Is which. They figured iu an amusing iucideut only Ssturdsy. Luther went into s Chestnut street cafe directly after noontime acd ate a big meal. About 3 o'clock “Billy” went to tbe tame place, occupied the tame chair and ordered a small feast of the same waiter, who was astonished to see the man eat, ss be supposed, two meals in so many boors. In tbe meantime Lntber bad been doing some lively bustling, and just before S o'clock be became ravenously hungry, sod returned to tbe cafe and ordered another meal of tbe same waiter, who was still tbiuking of tbe tao big meals be bad already served. He was surprised to see tbe third meal disappear, but be was completely ptralyzed about ? o'clock when William Price rushed to bis old seat and ordered what would be quite enough for two hungry tramps. This was too much for tbe waiter. He went to the manager of tbe place and told him that bis last customer bad eaten four big meals In less than seven hours, and warned him to see that tbe laat check waa properly seabed.
