News Notes > Continued from page 1 referred to the committee as soon as it can be got together. 9 9A gentleman representing an automobile company was here recently and suggested that if the [Star and Wave desired to gire the inmates of the hospital an outing a car would be placed at oar disposal for the purpose. We replied "There is no hospital. " "Well, take out the children of the slums for a day in the country, ' ' said be. We were oompelled^to say, 'There are no slams. ' ' 'See the Overseer of the Poor and ask him to designate some poor families the children of which enjoy it." We replied, "The Overseer of the Poor is the only officer whose appropristion is never spent. His total expenditures this year are about 916, so far. There are no famil ies to designate of the ! kind you have in mind." "All right get "the prisoners in the city jail and do something for them to cheer them up. Give them a nice breezy ride. " We were rapidly becoming self-con-scious and embarrassed but was compelled to say: "We have no prisoners in the city jail." "Don't make any 'difference, " said the irrepressible gentleman," get in out of your [county jail," and again we were compelled to say, "There are i no more than two prisoners in the county Jail, if any. " "Great Scott," excitedly exclaimed he, "how do you publish a[newspaper. This must be heaven. It is too good to be true." We were quite sad at not being able . to meet the gentlemen's specifications ' but you can't have everything. He said the Atlantic Oounty[jail had 95 in it. There's no heaven about Atlantic City, evidently. Well, we have decided to borrow a bunch of Atlantic prisoners when the time comes. 1 « ® c . ; An amusing incident occurred in the j Stockton Hotel dining room the other c day with a prominent lady guest from 1 Chicago. The servi-e at this lady's table had not been quite as progressive ■ as it might have been, in other words ] the waiter was slow, so one afternoon the lady having made a purchase of a ' toy revolver, which .looked very much like the real thing, as a present for one of the children, she carried it to - the table, laying it beside her place. The lady commanded the waiter to bring her luncheon and that mighty I quick or there would be something do- ' ing (brandishing the toy revolver at i the waiter). Well he flew and flew r back with everything O. K. and the ' laugh was on the waiter. x _ f I Children Cry r FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA ' AGENTS ! f Chance of your life !

That it is the pop- n alar 'phone goes without saying. The n number of phones in this city has p reached this high figure through the a energetic efforts of the district mane- j1 ger, Walter B. Wray, and the large " number of "subscribers makes it a great a convenience to each one of them for y you can get almost anybody by calling S I them on the Keystone. The service B been made 'cheaper and better by J the efforts of this company and neithc-r gj houses nor private dwellings P the expense a burden. Operators ® are always courteous and District Manager Wray 'is very prompt about ad- f, any difficulties which may arise a; when once notified. dl The night service is continuous. In there Ib no single minute in the tl twenty-four hours when Keystone tele- v phone service is not available with p competent operators in charge, and the a value of the service in emergencies is exemplified. Another fee- ii tare which deserves special menfcon is n the continuance of halt rates after 6 h o'clock and five minute periods for long y distance calls. The long dietance connections oover almost every point a and the transmission is very clear and a satisfactory. New points are being tl connected constantly. Competent in- R s pec tors are kept for emergency duty p all the time, promptly going after and A adjusting any trouble with instrument or lines which may develop. All who j< > use the Keystone lines will agree th~ B ithsy have become a great convenience a in Cape May and probably carry nine C tenths of all the phone calls. ~

A SENSATIONAL. KLOPEMKNT 1 It is the unexpected which often hap- ~j pens and it is not always the young I who are giddy ana who are easily ' touched by Cupid's darts. These darts 1 land disastrously occasionally in ^ breasts that have braved/ many a sum- 3 mer and many a winter sedately without there being a hint of sentiment so overwhelming as to cause a ssnsatiooal \ t lopment. If anybody had picked out a hotel where flopetaenta would not occur it would have been the Elberan. If anybody had been asked to pick out a proprietor who could be depended upon to be proper at all times and who could not be persuaded to elope with one of his guests, no matter how charming, they would say J. «. Wilson. Fancy the surprise of the Elberan folks last evening when they mw this gentleman togged out In silk hat and Prince Albert, hastening on his wheel' to a prearrangd rendezvous, grip Mck in hand to meet a lady and that lady a guest, hastening at the same moment out of the Lafayette street exit of the Elberan and on her wheel speeding to the proposed rendezvous! Nobody where they were going and the members of both families should have prostrated with grief. After some time, however, the guilty pair returned, were met [with a shower of rice, marched into the Elberan, duly registered, asked for the best room in the bouse and marched upstairs. The did not remain long, and explained [that he had • discovered that the lady was five years cider than he and that he had deciaed to call it off. The affair created a great lot of fun. The "bride" was M. A. Odell, of Washington, who celebrated her 80th birthday yesterday.
