Osterling vs Cape May Hotel Company Two Interesting Witnesses Examined Yesterday. The case of Osterling vs. the Cape May Hotel Company was continued yesterday, Mr. Emil Sweenson being called as a witness. Mr. Sweenaen had been employed as an expert to advise as to the plans of the hotel, and a* to tha feasibility and had been invited to make such suggestions as to the construction of the building as would insure a workable and usable house. His testimony was to the effect that alterations and additions aggregating in cost $36,812 had been recommended by him and that one-half of the items suggested should have been in the original plans because they were essential to the structure and

could not be dispensed with. One item was for additional electric lighting facilities $16,600, the claim being that architect Osterling's provision for lighting would 1^ re left the' hotel in comparative darkness. Other items were pipes connect the laundry up with the power and hot water conveyance to the which had not been provided for. Manager John P. Doyle, of the Ho(el Cape May testified that the dining room and kitchens were inadequate to the needs o* the hotel and had been enlarged since structure had been completed. The defense seems to be that an architect is not necessarily a man of the highest skill aiid that it is not necessary to an enforceable contract that plans shall flawless and performance of duty criticism.

Johnson one of the most enter prising merchants of Cape May county purchased an automobile delivery and is now selling horse feed in larger quantities than ever. MRS. HENRIETTA BENNETT DEAD

e SHORTER AND MORE ATTRACTIVE t a ii e Taken by the Premier run in June and > * * Passes Through Flourishing Towns v 1 And Country. d 0 _____ v H One of the most important things „ I r which have oocourred during 1910 is the t development of s new automobile route u to Cape May, through the investigations c and energy of President A. T. Haynes, 0 1 of the Board of Trade, and Manager J. j] P. Doyle of the Hotel Cape May. The j r< new route carries .direct from Camden I ~ to Cape May by way of Vineland and j d r I

i | the hayride and leads through a flour- 1 j ishiiig country side and numerous pis- | towns whereas the route by ' of May's Landing for most of the 1 is unattractive. Another ad- 1 vantage is that the distance is about ten ' miles less. The route is illustrated in 1 the diagram published herewith and was used in the great Premier auto run to 1 May in June which was taken by 1 hundred and ten autos. The above c i is the true route a shiiter 1 route having been mapped since the larg- ' er map published a few days ago was 1 drawn.

COULD NOT HIT BUTTS SAFE. b On Thursday afternoon before the rec- p i, ord crowd of the season at Columbia j, Park, the estimated attendance being c , about 1000, Cape May was defeated by [, Atlantic City in one of the most sensa- f, tional tilts that has been played here, y, by a score of 3 to 0. Incidentally the q i local team was blanked for the first p 5 time in the past two seasons 5 Both teams gave splendid fielding ex- £ 1 hibitiocs, there being little to choose t, between the two, and considering the t! ;• fact that Atlantic is not only fast, but „• » one of the strongest professional organ- „ izations playing independent ball, it will ,j j be apparent that the work of the Cape May team was excellent. f, ATLANTIC CITY ab. r. h. po. a. e. n » Batthews, rf 6 1 2 0 0 0 b O'Hara, ss 4 0 0" I 5 0b t Fogarty, If. 5 1 4 1 0 C « s White, cf 5 0 2 4 0 0 c Dowd, 2b 4 0 1 2-2 0 B Dillon, lb 4 0 1 12 0 0 t!

The Golf Links And Tennis Courts < i NOTES OF PLAYERS NEW AND OLD 1 \ Interesting Gossip ef the Links and the 1 Numerous Eothnsisstic Players Who * Daily Enjoy tha game— Caii and Tot t Partial a Regular Feature. ' Y One of the moat important and amna- 1 ing features of golf is the poet mortems j held in the locker house after the ^ matches. The overheated atmosphere was fairly crackling with the voluble explanations ^ of the reason, '1 failed to win." That j irrepressible freshman W. M. Allen was * the only member of the disrupted school ^ who could afford a dignified silence. He won a prize. Of course the professor blamed his horrible mishap on the worry occasioned by his philanthropic efforts to inculcate the true principles of golf into the indurated intellects of a hum- e ber of unruly pupils. W . W. Shaw was 15 sure he would have won it it had not been for a broken spring. H. M. Justi

claimed that a defeat in his s teeing gear made him unable to keep on the coarse. L. Smith explained that 13 holes was too much milage on a weakened . transmission. J. M. E. Hildreth testifled that his speed game refused to start and he had to limp along as best as lie could in any ordinary runabout . F. F. couldn't exactly locate the trouble but surmised it might be lack of for uphill journey, bliss G. Davis thought her opponent was using an ordinary stock cai and 60 did not bring out her famous 87 speed machine. She realized her mistake too late. After hearing all these testimonies and excuses the general verdict of criminal carelessness was rendered and the jury was discharged. Cape May has had the distinction of entertaining one of the youngest golfers' the United States, blaster Lambert He is now eight years old and been playing intermittingly for the last 2 years. His form is very good, his directions is excellent and his judgment of the firmer points of the game is far beyond his years- He has been playing our course in from 61 to 63 for the 9 holes. Today with the incentive of a prize offered by his grandfather, L. Hurd, for a score under 60 he succeeded in turning off a 57. His card 6-7-5-6-4 11-6-7-5-57. This not only speaks well for the boy's present form and future promise, but only emphasizes the well established reputation of the Cape MaJ links as an unrivalled place for developing golfers. Saturday is going to be an exceptionally busy day at the club. In addition the regular tournament there will several other attractive events. On the tennis courts four of the best of Philadelphia's Tennis players will play some exhibition matches at 4 o'clock the afternoon. The courts have been especially prepared for the occasion and benches -will be placed around the courts for the comfort of the large gallery sure be present. The players are H. M. Tilde?, W.

On the porch Mr. H«rry Hertzog will a choice program of orchestral music interspersed with vocal selections j Mr. Horace R. Hood one of the best baritone soloists of Philadelphia. He ' will render the Prologue from Pagliacci, . Passenti from Faust, The Heart Down from Bohemian Girl and the Baritone Aria from Herrodiade. In evening there will be a dance in the ' house. Music by Mr. Hertzog's ' orchestra. "Revenge is sweet." A just retribution ] liar overtaken two of those troublesome near golfers. The professor freed from 1 the worries of tuition invited W. W. , Shaw and F. F. Leonard out on the j this afternoon and proceeded to 1 administer a well deserved trimming to the pair of them with a brand new double edged 74. He had especially imported this instrument of torture but ( has carefully . kept it concealed until j needed. The one-day 9-hele Tournamept for Wednesday was a large success.

I _ Just to remind all members for the last time that the management de- | sires to have all interested in tennis to come to the courts on Saturday morning and bring their friends. It will be a | big affair. All of the benches belonging j to the club will bo taken to the courts t beforehand. They will be crowded too, . so if you desire seats, be punctual and I come at ten o'clock. Play to-day until you have had enough of the game to I last over to-morrow morning. Your I friends will be there, why not you? ( If you have an arrangement it will more than repay you to postpone it. En- | gagements are like promises, don't break them unless for a much better cause. ' You do not see crack players every day | so take the opportunity of witnessing ' the only match of this kind you're likely ; to see all summer. It will be the evert ' of the season at the courts and an affair to be remembered by all present. You have seen many excellent games already no champions at the club courts: These players are real champions and there are four of them to play singles and doubles. You will learn many new points and beat the player who won from you last week. IN MEMORIAM BAILEY — In loving remembrance of dear little boy, Vaughan CrandaQ died July 15, 1903. * In the cemetery sweetly sleeping, Lies the idol of our hearts.
