oocura thia evening, haa had mut celebrate thl> aeaion. IHablrthda; an event, though It la uaeleu to I tbe number of yean, for be remaina always young, aa young in appearance today aa upon tbe first day of oursequaintauee with him, way back in tbe misty I eat. Yesterday marked bis fiftieth year In Ibis country, wbieh la also worthy of celebration. He waa boro in classical Bavaria, near to Bayreuth, which hat World-Wide fame because (JT the perform anoea there of Wagner, the great eom poser. Left this home of moa c,however, and obtained his musical education in America, at Philadelphia but of tbe beat foreign article*. His summer time career at Cape May began forty years ago at White HaU-and trie orchestras bsve been almost yearly since, attractions here. In tbe mind, of many tbe name of Hasaler and Cape May are Inseparable. At Cong real Hall baa bis great popularity chlefiy grown and tbe music there under his direction baa bad much to do with making Cougreaa HaU tbe popular sod famous house that It is. Native and visiting population each summer spend hours delightfully tlNlstenlng to tbe beautfol barmoi ies from suing and horn which accomplished artistes are able to bring forth, under tbe skilful direction of the bora leader, Simon HaaaleiV-Maiiy'havc learned her* tbe wondrous power and beauty of flue music correctly Interpreted. Uaaaler baa, therefore, done good In another tense, be has opened to tboui. ands, beautlfol thought* Inspired by musle wbleb .ha» remained with them long after their first Inception, to make life more enjoyable. Personally Mr. Haaaler Is what a devotee of music should he, genial, true, and companionable. Every acquaintance is his friend. Is it surprising that bia lesliuu always one of tbe most brilliant of tbe season to which nearly the whole

city Hooka?

-Nr Complaint i> heard again lb.s year for several past years from hotel and boarding house koepeis. about the payment of license for keeping hotels or boarding bouses imououog'\lp a Hied fee for each room. This baa nOrefc whatever to the license exacted for ^liquor Balling. Wa call attenttoo lo this matter, not for tbe purpose qfoompUinlog of city official*, but for the purpose of lllualrating a theory reoenlly die mused lo the** columns. A*aach hotel la taxed by tbe assessor proportionately to other property, the license come* upon It as a second tax which Is regarded aa unjust discrimination against anch property. It partienlaiiy strikes an ob server in this light after tbs discovery that, only reanrtig, ^be city has given away, without gby rdlura to vbe city traaanry whatever, one of tbe most valuable franchisee It possessed, tbe right to run oars upon tbe beach front. From this It will receive no income whatever, neither tax nor license. Tbe hotel keep era together apeuj thousands of dollars In advertising for guests. They get them, are charged a special license for entertaining them, but tbe electric road w Itbout paying one dollar to secure patrons for tbe city, or one dollar to tbs city, reaps a great harvest in patronage,solely through tbe effects of others who are compelled to pay a special city Ux for making tbe efforts! They bare received at the hand* of Council a | franchise in which each cltlxen and property owner In this city bad a legal wt: they have pal^pothiug for It and there la at present no provision by which they will be required to pay one cent, hereafter' Moreover the company la composed, if our memory serve rectly, of men who heretofore have bad no Interest, whatever, In Cape May. It at all surprising that hotel keepers dislike tbs extra tax of fifty cents per room under these circumstances ? Even the gas company, owner of another Talus hie franchise, it required to pay three hundred and thirty dollars tax, though no axtre license la required iff It. probably, however, mors than collects this amoaut In wrongful meter It happens, therefore, that the two moat valuable franchises belonging to the city of Capa May are In the hands of corporations which are required to pay nothing, or as In tba latter case, a nominal sum to the city, while all other property and all other business U taxed and licensed to support tbe city, maintain
