Splendid hotel accommodations. THE BOULEVARD stretches along the ocean front, just inside the Boardwalk, and along it during jbe fashionable driving hours of the day are seen hundred*

of fine equipages and automobiles, while their occupants can enjoy at the same time an uninterrupted view of Old Neptune. *
