erty.

Miss Alice W. Canfield has been elected president of the Christian Endeavor Society of the First M. E. Church.

W. H. Key, of Philadelphia, has com-

menced the erection of a double cottage on Central avenue, between Eighth and Ninth streets.

A walk around Ocean City reveals the fact that the buildings now in course of construction are of the better class of architecture.

Captain J. S. Willets is putting down a brick pavement around his property at the corner of Seventh street and Central avenue.

Messrs. Hunter, of New York City, and Huntley, of Vineland, have been occupying a cottage at Thirty-third street for a short season.

Mrs. Hofstetter, of Philadelphia, who was a guest at the Traymore last summer, was on the island last week with a view to building a cottage prior to the opening of another season.

The annual report of the President of the Ocean City Association has been received, but owing to the demand upon our news columns this week it has been crowded out. It will appear next week.

Editor Adams, of the News, since he mounted the editorial tripod and found he could maintain his equilibrium, now essays to master the bicycle and use it as a means of locomotion. He can be seen on his wheel daily. The pupils of our public school will give an entertainment in Steelman's Hall on Saturday, December 2d, the proceeds to be used for school purposes. The scholars are now rehearsing their parts. The "baby drill" will be the unique feature of the evening. There will be vocal and instrumental music also. If any doubt existed in the minds of Ocean City residents as to the probability of the South Jersey Railroad Company extending its tracks to this place next summer, the action of the Ocean City Association in granting a right of way to that company should dispel the delusion. The entrance of the South Jersey will prove an important factor in expanding our city.

While taking a spin along the beach on his wheel Tuesday evening, William E. Massey, son of Rev. W. A. Massey, was unseated and thrown violently to the ground by coming in contact with an electric pole guy wire. In company with H. B. Adams the young man was speeding along the strand, and in the

growing darkness ran into the wire, which struck him just below the chin, leaving a well-defined mark on his neck as a memento of the collision. Had it not been for the young man's high shirt collar he undoubted would have sustained much more serious wounds. He is to be congratulated on his fortunate escape.

An Important Decision. Two important decisions were rendered Thursday by the Supreme Court, when the County Excise Commission act and the Democratic gerrymander act of 1891 were declared unconstitutional. No written opinion was given in the Excise Commission case. The decision will be hailed with delight by many small towns in South Jersey, where the citizens have voted against the saloon, but have had it forced on them by Democratic excise boards, in whose selection they had no say. There are boards to which the opinion applies in Camden, Cumberland, Warren and several other counties. The matter has been hanging fire in the courts for two years. The opinion of the Court deciding the gerrymander unconstitutional was rendered on the ground that it violates Section 3, Article IV of the Constitution,

which provides that the General As-

sembly shall be comprised of members annually elected by the legal voters of the counties respectively, who shall be

apportioned among the said counties as nearly as may be according to the number of their respective inhabitants. Since the gerrymander went into effect citizens have been deprived of the right to vote for more than one candi-

date for the Assembly, instead of all running in the county. The Essex County Republican Committee last

summer decided to contest the constitutionality of the act, and the case was argued last June by some of the leading lawyers in the State. In the course of his opinion Justice Depue says:

"The Constitution contains the per-

manent will of the people. It is paramount to the power of the Legislature, and can be revoked or altered only by the power which created it. Popular

government can be maintained only by upholding the Constitution at all times and on all occasions as it was when it came from the hands of the people by whose fiat it was established as the fundamental articles of government, to abide until altered by the authority which created it.

"No one can examine the legislation on this subject from 1871 to the present time and contemplate the results with-

out realizing the evils which have been fostered under this system. Relief from these wrongs through the ballot-box cannot be assured. The majority in the Legislature is elected by a minority of the legal voters of the State."

The effect of the decision is a rule requiring all elections for members of the Legislature to be held according to the Constitution. The work of the Republicans who intended to draw new Assembly district lines next winter is thus obviated altogether.

Improve Cape May County.

During recent correspondence between the Secretary of the State Board of Ag-

riculture and some gentlemen of Cape May County relating to its agricultural interests the following statement was made in one letter:

"I do not know of any part of the State where the soil will yield a better pay for time and maure than it will in Cape May. It is a natural soil for

clover, all kinds of fruit and berries thrive and do well, grapes generally do well when they are not destroyed by rose bugs or mould.

"With our railroad, sail-vessels and steamboat facilities to ship our surplus, and so many summer resorts to market our vegetables in, I do not see why

Cape May should not lead Vineland in fruits and vegetables.

"If I can assist you in any way to place Cape May in its true color, or bring it out with its capabilities, I will be happy to do it." We are informed that the Secretary of the State Board is now making arrangements to organize a Cape May County Board of Agriculture in the

near future, perhaps next month, pro-

viding the co-operation of the farmers and truckers of the County can be secured.

We would say to our agricultural readers here is your opportunity to improve the agriculture of the County not only, but also to bring the advantages possessed by Cape May into public notice. The State Board of Agriculture is constituted by a law of the State and County Boards can be organized auxiliary thereto.

Through its lectures and by discuss-

ions, it is exerting a very helpful influence in those Counties that are organ-

ized and thus in a position to be reached by such means.

Shall the farmers if this County avail themselves of the advantages offered? If so look out for the call for a meeting to organize the County and respond by attending, co-operating and making the movement a success.

A Fight Causes a Fire. Rev. D. J. Jones, of Richland, Atlan-

tic County, is laid up with a badly dis-

figured body, and suffering from a ter-

rible beating received after extinguishing flames that threatened to destroy his church. A number of carpenters who were at work on the building demanded their money on a Saturday evening, and when it was not forthcoming raised a row. Mr. Jones went to the building to expostulate with the men, one of whom, becoming infuriated at him, threw a stick, overturning a lamp in the building, setting it on fire. After the fire was out the two men, whose names are not known, set on the reverend gentleman and gave him a severe beating. The matter created the greatest excitement, and for the time the affair threatened to assume a dangerous aspect for the men at the hands of the angry crowd that gathered. Aided by their companions, the men managed to escape, and warrants are now out for them. Largest stock of wall paper and decorations in South Jersey at B. R.

From Garden City, Kansas, comes the sad news of the death of William T. Barber, well known throughout this and Atlantic county, which occurred on Friday last. Mr. Barber was stricken with the fatal illness last summer, while a resident of this city, and was sent to Cooper Hospital, Camden, on advice of his physician, where he remained for some time. From thence he was removed to his home at Haddonfield, this State, but later on in the belief that a change of climate would be beneficial he traveled through Pennsylvania and the South, finally reaching the city where he died. Deceased was about 40 years of age, and a prominent member of the Masonic Order. He was born in Philadelphia, and after reaching manhood came to this State, where he engaged in the canning business. This he abandoned when he united with James W. Lee, H. C. Terry and Edwin Smith in forming the Atlantic Coast Steamboat Company, of which he was a manager at the time of his death. About seventeen years ago he was married to Miss Elkins, of Haddonfield, who, with six children, survives him. After his marriage he made Haddonfield his home, and was very active in promoting the welfare of the town of his adoption. The body was buried at Haddonfield yesterday with Masonic ceremonies.

E. Palen. Warrants were ordered drawn for the following bills: George Everingham, $3.00; Herbert Wright, $4.50; A. D. Barrows, $17.30; Lewis S. Corson, $1.50. A deed was ordered executed to Richard B. Somers, of Atlantic City. On motion it was ordered that correspondence be opened with the Surety Trust and Safe Deposit Company, of Camden, to ascertain if they would discount another note of the Ocean City Association. The Board of Health requested Council to order certain lots at north point of beach filled up, which request was referred to the Solicitor for advice. Adjourned until Friday evening, November 24th.

Let the Borough Marshal Look After Your Property During the Winter Months. As there is no officer on duty during the winter months it would be well for those who have property to have it looked after. Houses have been forcibly entered, window panes broken and more or less damage has been done to property by mischievous persons. This may be avoided by placing your property in care of HARRY L. CONVER, Borough Marshal. P. O. Box 81.
