MOTOR LAWS BROKEN DAILY CAPE MAT AUTOMOBILISTS FREQUENTLY BREAK STATUTE BT OPENING CUTOUT— SHOULD BE DIRECTLY PARALLEL WITH THE GROUND. From Thursday's Daily Star and Wave Automobilist* within the limit* of Oape May City may not be familia with the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Law hot if they are not they should be. it has been remarked that there is not an automobilist in this resort that doe not break the law. when he or she is out driving. For the benefit of those law breaker* we reprint the following: . 7. Mufflers— Smoke Preventives.— Section -'7 Every motor vehicle shal have and every driver of such moto vehicle shall use devices to prevent ex ceasive noise, annoy iny smoke, and the, escape sf gases and steam, as well as I' the falling out of embers or residu from the fuel; and all exhaust pipes carrying exhause gases from the engin shall be directely parallel to the ground or slightly upward. Devices known as 1 ''muffler cut outs'* shall not be used within the' limits of any city town < r ■ borough, or within two hundred feet 1 of any horse-drawn vehicle on the pub- : lie highway. 1 Concerning that portion where it says < "devices known as muffler out outs * shall not be used within the city lim ' its." we would say that it is a favorite ' pastime for many drivers to open their cut outa without the least degree 08 1 necessity and oft™ done wbene it cause ' the most annoyance. Since there is ' law to that effect in the state of Ne ' Jersey it is well for the officials t ' enforce it and there is no better plac ' to start than in Cape May j 1 CHOIR OF THE CHURCH OF 1 EPIPHANY AT THE GLENWOOD 1 Thirty boys, ranging in age from * eight to twenty years, members of the I . sboir of - the church of the Epiphany •

On July 31. 1849, the register, which 5 is the property of Lewis T. Stevens, s Esq., contains the names of A.

The child was a son and that ■ son is Henry J. Irick, a New Jersey 1 ex-Senator, who is now in the eighty - fifth year of his age and still lives in i Vincentown. In a recent conversation, Mr. Irick remembered with delight his I trip here and told of some of the inci1 dents which had occurred. I The fourth of March previous to ■ Lincoln's trip^to^ this resort his term 1 as Isn Illinois Congressman had expired. .

THE HADDOCK ORPHANAGE . PHILADA. INSTITUTION SENDS; . CHILDREN TO SUMMER COTTAGE | f AT CAPE MAY POINT— BUILDING ' DONATED BY JOHN WANA- ' MAKER. ■ - i 1 From Wednesday's Daily Star and Mae f Writing it correctly, our headline is ' t in error, but by which it is generally ' I known, in this community and conse- ' quentiy by many of oar summer visi 1 4 tors, also. The Haddock Memorial ' Orphanage for infants is located at 1 806 Pine street, Philadephia. and in ' , their rpport is simply called their Sum- . mer Cottage. But the acquisition and ' control of this large and handsome cot- 1 tage, will fully appear, in detail, as < 1 we proceed. This fine large house was erected . and elegantly finished and furnished by 1 , Mr. John Wanamaker and occupied by 1 him as his palatial seaside home, for 1 , several years. But always noted for ' . looking after the material interests and ' comforts of his employees, he gave up , his home and presented it to Mrs. ' | Daniel U. Haddock as an annex to the ' Sea Side Home, to be used by young 1 women able to pay seven dollars a week ' , Mrs. Daniel Haddock, Jr., was | * president, her daughter. Mrs. James c Carstairs. was a manager of the Sea 8 Side Home Mis. lladdoek died August f 1898. When her will was read it was a great surprise to everyone, even her * closest friends, to learn that she had ' her handsome home, 806 1 street, Philadelphia, and one hun- * dred and twenty-five thousand dollars e in endowment, to establish a Home for ' , to be known as "The Haddock " Memorial Home for Infants." as a ^ memorial to her deceased husband and 0 children. The Haddock Memorial was opened | 1 in November, 1900. The Sea Side I Annex, it was soon realized, did not e for itself. It was then suggested 0 The Haddock Memorial take it for their ''

summer home. It was rented to them one season. When the managers of the Sea Side Home gave the Wank*. . maker Cottage to the Haddock Memorial for ninety -nine years, it was ' moved back a hundred feet and altered at the cost of about $4,000, to suit the C needs of a summer home for infants, f and lias been used for that purposb l#very summer since. The children from ] the Haddock Memorial were, the sum- ' j mer following its opening, brought down j to the Sea Side Home, j Thus the acme of the joy of the , managers was reached. They could , ! now take their little babies for their 1 1 annual outing to the Sea Side, during I the three or four months of the heated I I J period, w ith its scorching day* and . sultry nights, the most trying time for f tliem in the beginning of their live*. I Visitors to this unique baby home, I ! any Tuesday or Friday between the , I hours of two to four o'rloek. will Isideighted and fully convinced that there I i* no more humane and helpful work. 1 . A happier lot of little buds of hu- , man beings cannot be found, spending | nearly all tlieir time out in the open I lj Upon the wide porehe* surrounding I ' the entire cottage or playing upon the j j broad and level beach "drinking in added health and new ife for all time i . to come." In striking contrast we think of the ' j poor little babies borr. and reared some dark, dirty alleyyay. where God'*! ! light and air and sunshine can | : bora pf these unfortunate little human j ' beings. All the*e children are orphans): jor half orphans. Nearly all an- mother- . ilea*, taken from tlieir bilth to within) jtbree years. Fathers either able or . ' not able to provide for them havej! ! surrendered them until 3 years old.!! ■ Then, should the surviving parent or ( guardian be unable to provide for tliem | ! I they pass into the Presbyterian Or- 1 Jphanagr in West ltiiladelpliia . But ! • those 'who can properly support and ' I take care of them will receive them I | again. In many cases, however, rela- ' Jtives and friends adopt them. The ] girls remain in tbe Orphanage until 18, unless adopted, where they are instruct- j ed and trained for such positions in life for which they are best suited. One of the most useful and successful callings to which great attention is given , to the educational training of the girls, ( is as nursery maids: and of the large ( number of these, all have givefi -satisj faction. The demand for them after ( six months of training and instruction is very great. The managers of the ( Orphanage feel that they are doing a great work there in educating and fit- , ting young women, who can so intelligently and truly aid toothers in the care of their young children and be com forts aad Meanings in the nurseries. Tbe wonder is that this elegant home • not overcrowded iaataa* .at, havtog to-

much valuable capacity unoccupied. | But we are quite sure that with many more visitors to look over this 1 delightful building with its large and I airy rooms and wide hallways, and the I splendid management, that there would I be more donations for its support. ' i Especially, if they would note the ex- • | treraely watchful care exercised over - 1 every child by tbe faithful young . J nurses, increased numbers would be ; brought in, even by those able and will- - ing to pay all the costs for such splendI id motherly care, s One of tbe most attractive room* in the home where visitors want to look in upon, is the Urge nursery where the ' half of the children are mere infants ' and are "in cribs or held by the nurses ' while the other little tots are paying on the floor and all as happy a lot ' of little mortals as ever breathed. ' There are three nurses and an experi- ' rnced head nurse. The most thought- ' ful and anxious oversight is constantly given by a faithful superintendent, al- ' so a nurse of Urge experience. 1 This Summer Home opens June 16, ' when the babies of the Haddock Memorial Orphanage are brought down and ' here until October 1st, when the 1 Cottage is closed for the winter and 1 spring months of the year. ' Mrs. Benjamin Field, a very bear 1 and dear personal friend of Mrs. 1 Haddock for many years, if not life > is in full charge of the Home; ( and a more gentle and refined lady In | every way adapted to her position, 1 could not have been chosen. Her life ' to be WTapped up in the life of each little one. ■ Miss Matilda C. Degen, a very cap- ' able young woman, well educated and ' experienced in everything required in position, is th# Superintendent, who f gives the most motherly attention to * every possible need of these helpless ones of her charge. And the last a and important feature that this is a a Christian Home, as much so as any of c best homes, where the opening v mind is most tenderly instructed and f trained in religious duties and habits. 3 I-et us pause to consider the difference between surrendering a child to unskilled in the rearing of mother- 1 children and the entrusting of the J uncertain life to the skilled and inunveitain liie vu me hkiiicu ana in -

f telligent nurse where all her time is s given to the child's health and develop - . It is therefore amazing that discrimij nating fathers, especially those who are anxioif* and willing to pay liberally for a good home during the babyhood t of their motherless children, should not j commit tliem to such sheltering and . lovclg Mimes as this ope. Much of the Cottage's beach front ha* been washing away for several . years and it is becoming a perplexing I problem. The fine structure will soon r have to be moved for the second time. ^ elsewhere, to a place of safety. Where I the means to do this are to come from, I no one knows. But we are quite sure that when the actual necessity occurs, these faithful women will undertake the work in the good I.ord's name and , Hi* promise that "He will provide" . will surely be fulfilled. And it may be. , and it is hoped, that rich and poor alike will, in some way assist those _ j estimable women . , j The President of the Haddock Mem- [ orial. Mrs .
