The Sunday evening concerts a Congress ‘Ball, Stockton and Lafayette are leaturoa of the summer entertainment program, which are always w<

appro-

The Trenton “State Gi priately remarks: "We the word Klondike, In the original li gnage, meant 'plenty of flsti,' and that Is about what it mr^ns to-day, judge, when the number of suckers headed toward that region la taken 1 consideration." The feast In store for those who tend tb' grand testimonial to Prof. D. T. Morgan, at Stockton Hotel, evening, is set forth In-part by the program published In another column. The grand ovation to the popular leader and to the ever popular Stockton will be an event worth witnessing, and will be undoubtedly one of the moat brilliant assemblages seen in Cape May In rsornt years. Richly gowned ladles and noted gentlemen will be so nun ous as to form the rule and not the oeptlou in the gathering. The gallant professor has attuned wind instruments to provide the m entrancing music for the guidance ot the flying test and for the beat interpretation of the grand oonoer, program. The artists who will participate are . known to fame, and will on this occ slon excel themselves In their efforts contribute to the grand success of the

Tbat Mr. Edward K. Cake, proprietor of Congress Hall, has exerted himself more than ever during the peat season to make that hotel a centre of attraction and to supply for the entertainment of visiting cottagers as wel 1 as guests, moslo and amnaement In varioua foima, all will acknowledge. In consequence something baa been going on at old Congreaa all aummer, and that something baa alwaya been amuelug and enjoyable. Mr. Cake'a efforts have been appreciated very fully, aa the crowds which have frequented the various entertainmenu have testified. The benefit to the rt sort of a liberal management of Congress Hall cannot be over -allmaled. We have become accustomed to depend largely upon our large hotels for entermeut sod If the facilities were not provided It would have a very appreciable effect upon the patronage ol the smaller holsls and also upon the else of our cottage colony. Tut Cottagers' Association baa proven a power for good in Cape May, and can exei l an Influence upon affairs here which will alwaya be saluury. It may make mistakes, and It may cot Uke just the action expected of it at all times. It is impossible that this or any other body should alwaya so act as to please everybody. There are frequent occasions, however, when matters In thie city need juat the attention which tbs Cotiagcrs’ Association la able to give. The colug.rs who comprise the larger portion ol iu membership are in a position to be nnbiaaed and to ace things as they exist uninfluenced by any local prejudice, aud their dlecuaeiou of matters ol Interest to the elty have in the past, and do doubt will in the future, prove lustruotlve and enlight-

ening.

To say that the association has do power may be true, If the power which comet Irom the aututory enactment la meant, but that It exeru a moral iofluenoe which baa been and wilf be effective, any observer must admit. It is oanalu that without IU aid the recent beach and other improvements of which we are now so proud would m been made, aud It la also certain that tbs influence of the association poMBt In securing exemption irom the gas meter real vexation. Nor would be difficult to enumerate other Ino dauu of good resulU following it

action.

Soma who adversely criticise it do so, because they do not fancy the tree discussion of such schemes as are brought toith (or the explolutiou ot the city. It la not healthful to their success Others do ao because they have uoi considered the subject carefully or bo The Cottagers' Assoc tattoo should receive beany support by all who to reeled iu the welfare of the resort, aud It will prove a powerful agency for progreee and protection against such evila as are likely to beast this city iu the future aa they have tn the past. Mr. and Mrs Edwin Crawley, Philadelphia, have come down for the real of the season and are very pleasantly located at the Star Villa. Prof. Crawley la the vloe-dian of the collegiate department of the University ol Pennsylvania and has done much to raise the standard of higher ednoa-
