In the Cape May Dais-T Stab of July 31, 1878, now the leading Capa Maypaper, tbere appeared an advertlaemenl of a testimonial benefit to Mr. Simon Hastier at Congress Hall, to Friday evening, August 1, 18*8, to which tickets of admUaion were 81 <wcli. In tbe editorial notloo of event It Is slated that "he has given pet inrmsuoes worthy of tbe Italian Conservatory.’’ Tbe grand testlmonlal this year wilt occur on July 81. The northeast storm whlob has prevailed for -a portion of tnls week has been uDOomforteble'sod discouraging, but It has given us nj cause for alarm otherwise. No damage hat resulted our beaeb, and the poadblllty of su a thing has not suggested Itself to any-

body here.

Cape May Is rarely damaged by the storm tides and wave* no matter bow fleroely they may rage, and there is no resort on the AlUntlo coast which sufisrs so little. At Asbury Park the recent storm did great damage, bath bouses having their floors sod roofs | torn off and the promenade In front suffering. The water came ■ Ocean avenue there and found lu way Into the gutters and ran down the aides of the street. Senator Bradley wr* oompelled to employ a large number . men to strengthen the bulkheads by forcing down additional planking by hydraulic pressure. Speaking of Found er Bradley, the Asbury Park "Journal”

“It la not the injury to the promenade that make* him heart-sick, but tbe loss of much of the beach. At Asbury avenue foar or five foet have

been cut down, and the same i

just north of the pier, where tbe west winds and favoring currents bat"

meuced to make up a good beach

"Last night It was reported that Mr.

Bradley was sick—and no wondei

has tremendous nerve to bear op as be does under the strain of the past week, when thousands of dollars have been swept away by the encroaching sea and tbe battering of tbs giant waves that seem to have a spile against bis

ocean front improvements."
