He (oemed to greatly rnjirr ' it, and returned the volleys of sand lralls with much apirit. It is singular how fast a person seems to more in the water aometimes. There are many who go in the surf that like the pleasure of diving through the breakers and frequently land in close proximity to some charming lady.

A lady, was standing on the boardwalk one day this week, et?ne*ttr Watching the bather* disporting tbem■elves, when a very well-known gentleman happened to glance at her, who stood with her back to him. lie thought he' aw a small ' black object proving on her neck. Stepping up to the lady be remarked that he thought there "wis a bug ou her neck. She immediately •sked him if be would be kind enough to remove it. He endeavored to do in, and grasped It in ifnervous manner and pulled. It wasn't a bug. but a portion of that lady's get-up— one of Iter ner k frizzes. It is needless to add that both departed with more haste titan Is commonly seen along the beach. We are inrnrm.il thai this imllant ecntlrmsn hired formed gallant hired

a boy to kick him all the way to his hotel. A certain young lady from Baltimore, who, by the way, is a" handsome brunette, was bathing a day or two ago in company with a Baltimore gentleman, having two or three ladies to look after. For a moment he neglertcd the lady In question, when a heavy breaker caused her to loose her equilibrium, and, natural enough, sho grasped suddenly for anything that might happen in her way. Her delicate hand caught- the look of tho Baltimore giant's batbinj^suit, which, from aome unknown cause, had become very fragile." and while -till holding it firmly felt herself gradually slipping away from the gallant. He. however, succeeded In placing her safely upon her feet, when, to the amazement of the multitude, this immense man hail lost the entire back of his bathing cot lume. The bathing establishment waa unable to supply another of similar site, so the bathing suit had to be carefully pinned up by tbe ladies to allow this noble gau Bomitu, to pass unnoticed to the bath house. As the episode was, however, remarked by a number of persona, it is needless to say the parties in question have, been suddenly brought ..into conspiculty. Bathing Togs of prominent People. Hon.

Atpresenl ist we have one of thr finraOiathing beaches in the world.

constructed so far out. or-if it would stand after It were built. Taxpayers do not relish the idea of fa Ing saddled witli a debt of $20,000 for the sake of an ex- ' jH-omom. We need no breakwater as a matter of protection to the Island, and il la only to redeem tlie double row of lots between the sea knd Ocean avenue that tbe sea-wall fa-comes necessary. Tlie surveying "f these lots, so far to tiro front, w«s a serious blunder on-tlie part of the com; any, and Hie selling of them to outsiders for a High price was something worse.

It is not Just, or right, that tlie owners should sustain thi- loss; the borough can not, should it, redeem them ; and memof the company tjho liave sold them show no disposition to rigid tlie matter In anyway. Tlma tlie problem stands. Meantime the interest* of the plaiv are 1 being retarded thereby.
