Now it remain* to be aeen what will be done. Tbe suspicion, opening of tbe grounds of tbe Cape May City Athletic Club leaves little d ubt but that »h«- scheme will be a sue. esa. With such men as Senator Iieyburn, General Sewell. Mai Rhrbenack, J. M. K llildrelh. and directors George W. Boyd, of I'. H. R-. Gen. C. r. 1'alne, and Messrs. Chits. A. Harte. N. C. Price and W. 8.

The company, of which these gentlemen ^ are n apectlvely,, president, secretary , and treasurer, propose on the outskirts j of West Cape May. on a handsome tract of eighty acres to build a driving park. , In tbe center of the plot is a natural lake, tbe ahorea of wblcb will be Improved, the trees, near by, trimmed and tbe grounds ornamented Around this lake a 'potting track of half mile in . lengtb will be constructed. On tbe out- , side of Ibis track a racing coulCe one ' mile long U to be laid out. A grand j stand capable of seating 5000 people wdl , be one of tbe prominent features. It will face the sea.

Cottages will be built for a their aecommotinn. and tbe value of i property thereby Increased. This means i material prosperity for the entire county, i These people must be fed. .

Here we find a subject ever f fresh and pregnant with new born Ideas of the beautiful In nature Just wben tbe sea and air are in their most attractive tuood.

The tffort to stay her flights baa heretofore proven futile. 1 Some extraordinary means must tie taken which amuant to a social revolution | to check the unnecessary rush after August has passed into Id-tory.
