The urge sign orer the bath bouaee In front of the Windsor la bitterly inveighed agalsat Dy gueiU at the nearby hoteu, whose view of the sea la obatrncted. It woold be a good thing for the owner to take the lultlve In clearing the beach front of each tblnge by removing it. A builder of jelllea who baa had a great deal of experience has expressed a williogeeaa to erect jetties at South Cape which he will guarantee will the beach from further encroachment by the aaa and cause It rather to gain than to lose. We are convinced that the problem of bow to prevent the encroachments of the sea will be solved ultimately by the erection of jetties. The stale of our beach In the vicinity of the Iron pier affords strong of the good effects likely to be produced by jetties. That Congress Hall la winning back Its old-time prestige under its present management, there can be no doubt. The great Improvement made in equipment baa been ebly supplemented by the provision made for the comfort and proper entertainment ot 1U guests by 1U pronrletor, Mr. Edward Kulght Gake, and bis well-directed efforu make it a centre of attraction are being rewarded. The business of the present year there has shown a notable Increase over that of last year, and the many engagements made for Angust give pron laeof an unusually successful month. Enteri-uimxo cltixeua of Cape Mi have always felt that Cape May's pitr gree* would be much asai charms and lu summer life were pub1 lab©d abroad mors thoroughly. This has been urged always, and rightly, aa a first requisite, and for three years or more council baa appropriated money for expenditure in this direction. This has had iu Influence, of eonrse, In trading more particular attention the place by the great newspapers of the land, and though for fifty years more Cape May baa always received their attention to a gi aster or leaser i tent a$ a fashionable and popular •ort. It has been accorded more apace this year In their columns than probably evar before. Beginning with the leading newspapers of Philadelphia And that the •'Press" has been, during this season, publishing from the pen of Its special correspondent here, Mr. I«wla T. Stevens, a large number of columns per week. The "Inquirer,'' rep^edented here by a member of iu editorial euff, Mr. William C. Price, has also given freely of IU apace, and neither of these papers baa spared expense in placing the newt In the moat attractive form before their

The "Reeord, ' represented hereby Mr. Herbert M. Royer, has also given mocb more a pace than usual to Ci May this season, iu Sunday letters ersgiog e column and a half or two oolumna, with frevuent letters daring the week.
