' _ . CAPE MAY DRIVING PARK.- . 1 The Driving Park has already given real estate ■ boom about Cape May. The formation of the new Mt. Vernon Company led T. M. Regcr to gather into n company enough capltnl to organize and purchase the desirable proper! y|betwecn the Park ■ and ocean. There are indications that other land schemes "if ill be organized and other idle properttbe boueht for improvement. Enterprise, iikrfmany other things that depend upon the action of men, is catching, and from the I ark will radiate a Wld1 citing circle of improvement till the whole sweep of the coast from (jape May Point to ScwcIPb Point and beyond iB taken up by seaside homes. There is certainly no success that succeeds like success, the Driving Park Is fully demonstrating this pnn1 ciple. The treasurer of the Company, J. Henry Edmunds, had a busy time of it on 8aturday evening paying off the workmen. Their wages were soon in the hands of the trades people who turned them over to sotnCTydy else and so they wore kept ( going lubricating every avenue of trade and giving the usual autuminai quiet of the town a real sound shaking, likely to be repeated as the pay days comes around. The work of grading has been pushed forll.c past Week, a big lot of soil haying been put 1 where the engineer has designated- A drive around the mile track will soon bo one of the possibilities In the history of the progress ot the Park's history. When tho Mt. \ crnon people get to work there will bo a htisy hum of industry going on about 1 the Cape side of peninsula that will atlr the constitutions of some of the alow going people who are inclined to look on and pull back if they do anything. But the enterprise will go ahead, notwithstanding the drag of detraction that is being applied [ 10 retatd progress and consamate an early completion of the Park. During these nne days many strangers have visited the grounds and they all come away with their mouths tilled with words of admiration for what they see is destined to make a ' moat attractive resort. Not one has any fault to flod and Superintendent Miller is managing his workmen to the best ot advantage.

How Bessie Saved Her Lover. th a stoet founded on fact oonoeesixo *4 eevolttionaby use is cape mat of p< Written Mr the Wave dj Maid Bessie stood In the low, cedar (h doorway of a log cshin by the side of fo the great meadow. On the green car- d< pet, that stretched sway to the sandy . beach, far to the east, the shadows of lb the white clouda like happy sprites [n played a merry game. A fresh breeze h( blew In from the salty sea; whilst in the L near by words, tho birds of autumn h| sang tho praises of the glorious dedin. L of the year, All the world waa gay ei- n cept the fair, young girt. Silently, ahe y, stood, In her reverie until the voice of nj her mother aroused her; "Elizabeth, Is thy work done ? Come, ni' giri, oorae, ^ All thy blickie and hasten to the house. ^ And thou must prepare thy father's sup- ^ per, too; it grows late," and tha kind BI faced Quakeress, with Bessie, entered u the home. Then came arrangements ^ far the evening maU, into which the mother entered with much more enjoy- ,, ment than the daughter. Aa the golden lr sunlight flooded the room, through the Q, ^ narrow wiodow, it lighted the face of „ the maid, and showed a countenance c, 0 full of sorrow. It was a monmful face 0 which was turned to that window, and h 1 those beautiful eyes now bedlmmed n with tears, seemed to be yearning for ^ sonn thing that could never be attained, j Her lithe yet ahapely form, that Madonnm like face, those white Hands, all Q seemed ntterly out of place in that quiet l( ' country home; and yet, she, through all u her life, had never been accustomed to ^ aught else than the rough life of a plo- f neer's daughter. h "Elizabeth, what aOs thee, daughter? f I Has some of thy work gone wrong? fl Did thee break my new dishes, those r _ that I got me at 'The Landing' at Den- ? nis Creek when the sloop from FhUadel- . phia came tn? 1U1 me, what baa gone > amiss? But the yotmg giri answered never a word. "Poor child," said the kind woman, under breath. "She does notfeei#ell." then turning to Bemic, "Sit down, child, I will hyper about and tend lo thy work." ( The girl, Who had now commenced to , cry seated herself on a low stool and , held her face in her hands. Sflentlythe , L mother went hither and, flrat to her "dresser" for this article; then to the , shelf on the tide of the wall for that, , until all was ready. On the netting of ] the sun the father entered. , nt "There wife," said he, "I came with ( my shallop np the bay from the beach. , >-j See what I've brought." and throwing ] ~ down on the floor a back load of ducks which he had shot la one of the many , "slushes"— those ponds which are found • in tha long narrow swale* on the boaohe*. [ "Why, my Beat," said he, "crying again I Oome, come, giri, this wont do, ^ cheer up, I say," and he patted her on Beasie looked- up toward her father, with the lean trickling down her sun. browned cheeks, yet she vouchsafed - him-never a reply. ' They all sat down to the meal, with a 5-y lighted tallow (Bp, upon the table, for — the sun had driven to the Wast In the 1)6 chariots ef day. The maid still held her peace, replying only to mona ejlablea. Supper over the girl left tha room, and walked out, noiselessly, under the ere gleaming stara- By tha skta ef a great, gnarled oak she stood, whicVgraw near 1

path that led toward the A'l'ap's 1 somewhat toward the Inlet ior t Cape May county. Suddenly she fell t on her knees, taking al flrat from thr c pocket of her plain linsey-woolsey a scrap of paper upon which some- c waa evidently written. Then with r hands and gazing into the dark t of the star studded Heaven, the 1 girl prayod in the darkness with never 1 first thought of fear. Then, sptinkto ber feet she turned toward tLe ; bouse. That night, when going to her 1 humble couch, it may be Bessie kissed 1 her mother and father with more than 1 usual fervor, at least to her parting i embrace ahe drew them nearer to her 1 usual. Soon the stillness of the : sleep settled on that homo In the primeval forest. All were to slumber t except the daughter, fair Eliza- 1 bcth. E're the mid-night hour had her- 1 aided the approach of a new day, the 1 sudden jarring of a door, the swift pas- ' of a dark figure, the rustle of gar. 1 mcnta, told that Besaie had left the i home of her childhood. Wither was , going ? Ask him, ber lover, who 1 to a far distant ship was well nigh dying the bed of suffering. It was be, 1 who, when the Briltlsh war vessel anchored outside Great Egg Harbor, was caytmed by the Invading English, when little oyster shallop ran aground Middle River. Aye, he waa taken tha foreign foe, away from his West home, from those he loved, to be placed in the care of the merciless crew of the English brig which lay at anchor to the North of Bandy Hook. With a look at the cabin, with a prayer, which died on her lips, for those within with no guide bat the Pole star she hastened np the narrow lane to the wider road through the woods. Onward she with no sign of a light, at limes running like a startled fawn through the wilderness. When several miles from with a sudden turn she entered okl Indian path that led to the fordtog place at the head at Tuckahoe river. (to re continued.) The "Rescue" of Captain John Smith. The Indians especially admired bravand running. Tills device of the white chieftain and hit valor when at, tacked appealed 'o their admiration, and there was great desire to aee him. The renowned prisoner was received with the customary chorus of Indian yells; and then, acting upon the leading Indian custom, the law of unbounded hospitality, a bountiful feast was set before him. The captive, like the valiant man he was, ate heartily, though Ignorant what hii fate might be. The Indian seldom wantonly killed their captive*. When a sufficient num. had beon sacrificed to avenge the memory of such braves as bad fallen in I light, the remaining captives were either adopted aa tribesmen or disposed of aa 1 slaves. . Bo valiant a warrior aa this pale-faced 1 (4uun« waa too important a person - - age te be need as a slave, and Ws-bun-1 BO-niLooo*, the chief, received him aa an honored guest rather than a prisoner, 1 kept him to hk own house for two days, r and adopting him as his own con, prom9 isedhlm atarge gift of land. Then, with 1 many expressions of friendship, he re- '- turned him, well escorted by Indian • guides, to the trail that lad direct back * to the English colony at Jamertown.

( But. though the Oft-detcribed "rescue" I did not tako place, the valiant English- 1 man's attention was speedily drown to c the agile little Indian girl. Ma-ta-oka, t whom her father called his "tomboy" c pomo-Aun-Ios. n She was aa Inquisitive as auy young 1 girl, savage or civilized; and she was so j full of kindly attentions to the captain, ] and bestowed on him so many smiles i and looks of wondering curiosity, that made much of her in return, gave t her some trifling presents and asked her 1 name. I Now it waa one ot tho many singular 1 customs of the American Indian never 1 them to be spoken to strangers hy ■ any of their own immediate kindred. 1 reason for this lay to their peculiar , superstition, which held that the speak- : of one's real name gave to the stran- 1 1 gcr to whom it was spoken a magical > and harmful influence 'over such person. For this very reason, Wa-bun-so-na- : , cook was known to the colooiata by tlW - name of hit tribe, Pow-ha-tan, rather 's 1 than his own name. Bo, when lie was 1 asked Ma little daughter's name, he hes1 tated, and then gave in reply the filck1 name by which he often railed her, Pol ca-hun-tav the "little tomboy." This : agile young maiden, by reason of her rer latlopahlp to the hesd chief, was allowr ed much more freedom and fun than t was usually the lot of Indian girls, who , were, as a rule, the patient and uncom1 plaining little drudges of every Indian - homcand village.— Prom" UUtorte Qirlr. t Ua-la^ka of Poa-ha tan," by K, B. t Brook* in St. Sitkolatfor Natmbcr. , Formative Effects of Different Kinds of Athletics, i What the gymnasium is doing for the - strength and vigor of the masses in some . of our institutions of learning may be Inferred from a single illustration taken from the records at Harvard University. In the year 1880. seven hundred and seventy-six men were physically exam- '- toed. The strongest man out of this r number showed in strength of lungs, r back, legs, cheat, and arms, as Indicated, 1 on the chart, a grand total of 675.2. At the close of tha summer term of the i present year, the highest strength teat 0 recorded was 1372.8, and there were ? over two hundred men in college whotc A total strength test surpassed the highest >- teat of I880. This general gymnasium it work is therefore reducing the one-aided k development once so common with athletic specialists, d It must not be forgotten, however, ; 1- that there la a development peculiar to ] e the runner, jumper, wrestler, oarsman, n gymnast, bali-player, heavy .Uftrr, etc.. : t and anyone familiar with athletics at i is the present day can easily recognize one ! of these specialists.

His memory, accustomed J to seize and uaimilate definitions", and ( miscellaneous information at a single t hearing, acquires bith a marvelous al. < crtness and a'phenomeoal retentive ca- ' e paclty which enable him to matter cer- . e tain branches of study with singular | e case and rapidity. Deprived of hooka i n and without any very ready and reUaEle method of making notes, he obtains a il habit, often envied by the seeing, of ap1. preprinting instantaneously anything j s addressed to his intellect thrcngh bis . 1, hearing. Hence the proverbially, good < I, memory ot the blind person. His mind ' t Is his memorandum-book always at ! e hand and always open. , t "To the present writer, who nover re- I e members having a lesson to anything ' c road over to him more than twice, noth- j it Ing is more strange and more amusing ( II than a room full ot achool children, d with fingers crammed in their ears, buzI- zing over a lesson of three pages fofrthe- , fifteenth lime. Equally "Tncotnprelien- , r, aible is it to ace a man making a note 1 o I of a single address, or a lady referring ' 1. I to a shopping-list. Such observations j ., I force one to the conclusion that the art t it j of writing, Invaluable aa it la, has been 1 ie I disastrous to the human memory.

the regular course at acadomy or university, he will require, all in all, neither more Unto nor more labor than avcrogo student.

Aldan's Manifold Cyclopadla. Volume I. of this work, now on our table, abundantly fulfills the promises of the publisher's • prospectus. It ts a really handsome volume of 640 pages, half Morocco binding, large type, profurcly illustrated, and yot sold for the price of G5 cents; cloth binding only 50 cents— postage 11 cents extra. Large discounts even from those prices are alto early subaeribera. It is to be issued in about thirty volumea. The MANtroLD cyclopedia Is, to many wars, unlike any other Cyclopedia. It undertakes to present a surrey of the entire circle of knowledge, whether of Words or of THINGS, thus combining the characteristics of a Cyclopedia and a Dictionary, including to Its vocabulary every word which has any claim to a place in the English language. Its form of publication is as unique as its plan— the "Ideal Edition" its publisher calls it, and the popular verdict seems to sustain his claim. It certainly Is delightfully convenient. It will not be strange If this proves to be the great popular cyclopedia. It certainly is worthy of examination by all searchers after Knowledge. The publisher sends specimen free to applicant.
