To Enjoy the full orefvWtnr of the WeB-Infanned of the World ead the Cocnmeodaiioc of the moat eminent phyaiciana it was essential that the eomponent pacta of 8ynjp «f Figs and Elixir of Senna sho uld be known to and approved' by them; therefore, the California Fig Syrup Co. publishes a full atatement with every package.

News Notes Continued from page 1 have been enthusiastic lovers of music music of class and meaning. It is useless to attempt to stir tbem to enthusiasm unless the performance is of highest order, but when tnis is assured, large audiences will gather and hang breathless upon the interpretation of the music of the masters by astists of skill and aonl, to break forth at its conclusion into heartfelt rapture of applause and appreciation. Mr. Theodor Gordohn and his orchestra hare inspired by their matchless music the sincere regard and appreciation of Gape May's host of lovers of music and they will gather in force on Friday evening, August 20th, to give visiblefproof of it. It will be a great musical event deserving to rank with a proud array of great musical events which have distinguished the history of Cape May. « « » All indications point to the conclu sion that Gape May is enjoying a better season than any resort along the coast If we only had merry-go-round and sboot the chutes and a lot of similar thiugs business would overwhelm us Or is it possible that there are stil a few people who can enjoy life at the , seashore without these devices and without catch-penny traps and hideous noises at every turn? Madame Suelke-Shaw who was un- | able to sitfg at the Presbyterian concert , because of illness, and who was great ly disappointed at not being able] to appear, is recovering quite rapidly as her friends will be glad to learn and l may be able to sing at some future con- ' cert during the season for the pleasure ' of many who delight to hear her.

f 9 (• « Among the prominent guests from Washington at the Hotel Gape May for several days has been G. G. Arosemena, envoy extra ordiary and minister plenipotentiary of the Republic of Panama. He is one of the most prominent men in Washington and a long time friend of Manager J. P. Doyle. He was delighted with the beautiful and perfectly conducted Hotel Cape"* May and will return later with a number of friends* 9 (• 9 Another big week's end. The largest crowd of the season was here over Sunday and there were few hotels not filled up. The crowds at the yacht races, at the base ball game, at the concerts, in. fact every where on Saturday convinced everybody [that we are having a big season. The same thing has occurred every week's end since July first » (• 9 There are plenty of amusements and entertainments at Cape May and most , of them are rational, well ordered and j interesting. The razzle-dazzle as it , is found at some other resorts was ; never successful at Gape May. The , patrons of the resort have always been , people of class and there is perhaps no | other resort at which there is so large ( a percentage of the summer population ( to return year after year. There are , a number of families, of which mem- j be re of the third and even the fourth | generation are following in thd foot- , steps of their fathers and parsing each i season at Old Gape May. There is a | fine sentiment of attachment {to the , traditions and to the memories of the t resort which is felt oy many of these j families, who are as much attached to j the place as toe scions of the oldest c native families. ( * • 9 < Joseph McOann offers a.Willie Keeler c bet or a Reach Hurley for the first i home [run made by a member of the c Gape May team either at nome or away. 9 9 9 William R.

Sehn and the Mlaeea Weigans helped to make a merry party. J- • a 9 Several hotels received Urge arril vai« yesterday and toe indications F point to a big week's ana. • • * The Sxoelsiar Livery Stables. Jost ' over the bridge 00 West Perry street, 1 are new and built 00 the most modern - plan. Charles S. Newell is toe pro- . piietor and be has for hire there well trained driving horses, most up-to-date carriages and expert horsemen. His large light box stalls give hones toe ! best chance for comfort, in addition I to thisjhe has automobiles in charge of . in licensed chauffeurs for hire. The appearance of bones and carriages is so "swell" that they an almost al- • ways busy and the attempt to supply up-to-date accommodations in this ( ' line has met the popular favor. The > automobile service is also fine and gives great satisfaction. 9 C« ft Seven car loads of ezcunionists left ' yesterday on the Reading to accompany , toe Gape May base ball team to AJ- - antic City to play is first game with the Atlantic team, Anothei big crowd took toe 1 :80 train and went by Ocean I : Oity arriving in time ""to witness the game. Gape May people' are enthus- . i as tic and the ball team is high in the 1 . popular favor justtnow. Jit was neither , „ a prophet nor a son of a prophet who f predicted failure for base bail here this , . season. 1 i 9 9 9 3 A communication from the manager , f of the Wooabine [base ball team pub- 1 . lished by us aroused some curiosity an , t to its meaning [and we have been in- 1 formed that the Woodbine tesm when ] it plays at Court House is jeered at | , and made toe target of rather venom- | 9 ou« epithets which indicate an antipI sthyjupon religious grounds on the part j . of some of the "fans" who attend the , . games. Such epithets as "Christ | . killers" were oommon.it is said, ana if I this is the case. Manager Eisenberg is ( . justified in his indignation. Religion , and base ball are two distinct 'things and any display of religious intolerance , at a- ball game as against a visiting | J team is worse than rowdyism. It is discourteous, absurd, ridiculous, fanat- j 1 ical, barbarous, and anything but sportsmanlike. In fact every good cit- j izen should resent and condemn every ' symptom of religious intolerance no c 1 matter where it is- displayed nor how. This is America and in this great country there is no room for this kind c 1 of thing. This was what made the * "Dark Ages" and this has hindered -j the world's advancement in civilization centuries. We want nqne of it in t America on ball grounds or -eleswhere. J ^ 9 « '• The Poor Richard Olub of Philadel- ' * phia, was introduced to Secretary | 8 today at the Hotel Gape May by j * Martindale, of Philadelphia, who is the club's host for the day and j has been endeavoring to give tbem a ! 8

good time. The members lunohrd here n and will dine a Air. Martindale'6 fine ir cottage on the beach front at Wildwood this evening. One of the stunts tr required of them will be a walk in 1- company with Mr. Martindale from it this city to Wildwond, a distance of e nine miles. Mr. Martindale's fonde ness of walking is well known and he d seeks to teach the club the delights of y it. Secretary Knox was expected to f take a trip to the fishinng banks eight miles off shore today and to make an incidental inspection of the harbor er.e trance and its surroundings but did not e do so, bis plans being disarranued by B dispatches from Washington.

A COMMUNICATION Dear Editor : America and Americans have for been symbolic of good sporta- . mansbip. Therefore it is not strange that the lack of tois quality in several j towns in our county should be very surprising to many people. I am writing ( this because'of the treatment Wood- ( bine's Cape May County League Team received in Oourt House last Saturday. , I feel sure that never as yet has any , that played in Woodbine cause j complaint for any reason whatsoWhile we do not profess to be , of righteousness and honesty , In Woodbine, I do contend that we always shown that [sportmanlike j quality so conspicuous elsewhere in < May County because of its abt The spirit and rivalry and [en thus- j is what makes our national game, ball, so popular, but the minute this enthusiasm takes on the form so . evident at the last game in Court ' House it can be interpreted as nothing else than rowdyism, pure and simple, f and in this paricular case, caused only by racial prejudice, the result only of ? fanatical ignorance. However, let [me assure you that . when Court House next plays in Woodthey will be met [with the same ° gentlemanly and wholesome sportmanlike spirit with which Woodbine always meets its visitors. ' Yours very truly, ( F. EISENBERG. /v-

She } was taken ashore and Dr. Mecray, j Captain James. W. Eldredge of toe e Cape May Life Saving Station, and others worked hard to resuscitate ber , but without avail. Before her marriage she was Miss 3 Cornelia Creamer, and a public school teacher in Upper Township for several . years, her home being at Petersburg. 1 She was a very estimable woman and stood high in the regard of all who knew her.

3 It has long been cor- ed that the - seashore is one ot natu- • , best restoras tives. Nothing betti is known to , science than for one tc get sway for a : long rest beside tne sea. Here the air 1 contains ^so much oxygen that each i breath causes a thrill of delight and '■ gives a new incentive to live- While tbe rhythmic melody of tbe waves, | with its soothing murmur, always tends ' to resttulness. And Cape May is the place, par excellence to rest. It undoubt°dly has toe most beautiful as well as the safest beach on the coast. And it combines the double attraction of seashore and country. For where, beside here, will one find the fertile soil reaching out and holding within its grasp the very itself? Here the beautifully lawns, with their carpets of ten der groen astonish one's eyes on the borders of the ocean. No space is left for toe coarse waste of marsh to encroach. And beautiful shade trees, belonging to Nature's forest growth, are the rule and not the exception, in spite of tbe established precedent that seaside and shade trees are not found together. And in the matter of flowers— at this is true of the hydrangeanature is almost tropical in her lav is h . Everywhere, one's eyes are greeted with a luxuriance of growth »nd a variety of coloring that is marvelous. There is just sufficient variety of entertainment and amusement at the resort to make one ambitious to enjoy it all. And nowhere have the amusements; degenerated into that claps which always marks a surfeit in such things— an appeal to other than the higher side of life. In a word, Cape means clean, invigorating, healthliving. G. T. H.
