OCEAN CITY SENTINEL.

THURSDAY, NOV. 23, 1893. We shall be glad to receive items of news and communications of interest to this community and our readers everywhere. All communications should be accompanied with the full name and address of the writer, not necessarily for publication, but a guarantee of good

faith.

LOCAL NEWS. H. H. Marter and wife, of Camden, visited this place Monday. An adjourned meeting of Council will be held to-morrow evening. Miss Jennie Myers is spending a season with friends in Philadelphia. John S. Somers, of Philadelphia, who is building a cottage on Wesley avenue, was in town Friday. Conductor LaRue is in charge of the Ocean City accommodation during the absence of David Hickey. J. T. Bryan, of Camden, paid Ocean City a visit on Friday. Mr. Bryan is one of our real estate owners. Correll Doughty, of Atlantic City, and George Myers, Jr., of Linwood, were in town Monday on business. Harry S. Douglass, postmaster at Cape May Court House, was among the prominent visitors here on Tuesday. We understand that James C. Scull, who recently moved from this place to Philadelphia, is seriously ill at his home in that city. Rev. B. F. Sanderlin, who has a cottage on Wesley avenue, between Eighth and Ninth streets, spent several days in town last week. Richard G. Cook and wife, of Philadelphia, were in Ocean City Saturday. Mr. Cook is president of the Guarantee Trust Company of that city. Dr. Ingram, a returned missionary, lectured in the First M. E. Church last evening under the auspices of the Christian Endeavor Society. Mrs. Reuben Steelman returned home Friday evening after spending a week very pleasantly with friends in Philadelphia and Bridgeton. Owing to the mode of procedure in the disposal of the two lots on Asbury avenue owned by Ocean City, which Council empowered the Clerk to sell for $1000, it is a grave question whether the purchaser can get a clear title to the

same.

The society of "The King's Daughters" will hold a sociable for the young people of the town who are under 15 years of age on Saturday afternoon in the parlors of Mrs. Canfield, commence at 3 o'clock. Admittance 5 cents and proceeds for the benefit of the Sundayschool library. Miss Cora Hand is President and Miss Mabel Corson, Secretary, of the society. Those who engage in burning trash on vacant lots should exercise the greatest care lest a conflagration be started which might be very destructive not only to property but to life. We understand an accident of this kind occurred on Saturday in the southern part of our town, but fortunately the flames were extinguished before they had gained much headway. A stereopticon entertainment will be given in the M. E. Church next Thursday evening, 30th inst., embracing scenes from "Ten Nights in a Barroom," and Johnstown, before and after the flood. This entertainment is highly endorsed by the clergy, and as the cause is a good one there is no doubt but a full house will be the result. Popular prices will rule; adults, 20 cents; children under twelve years, 10 cents. It appears that the big Ferris wheel at Chicago is an infringement on an Atlantic City man's patent. The highest court having so decided, there will have to be paid over to the patentee several thousand dollars as royalty. The Atlantic City man has evidently gotten the better of the proprietor of the big wheel. He can now secure money for an invention which cost another man considerable time and worriment to put up and keep in successful operation at the World's Fair. Mrs. David Hickey, wife of Conductor Hickey, who has been under the care of physicians in Philadelphia for some time past, is in a precarious condition, and her death may be looked for at any moment. The afflicted lady is suffering from a fibrous tumor, which is rapidly developing and sapping the vital forces. She is fully conscious of her condition, and awaits the inevitable with a fortitude and resignation that does much to assuage the grief of those who minister to her wants. Mr. Hickey is constantly at his wife's bedside, doing all that a devoted husband could do to mitigate the agonies of her who has been his faithful helpmeet and companion for more than a quarter of a century.

Gave Judgment.

Before Judge Reed, in Camden, on Saturday, testimony was heard in the case of the Atlantic City National Bank

vs. David Giltinan, who endorsed a note for Charles McGlade for $2500 in August, 1892. Mr. McGlade failed to

pay the note, and suit was brought against the endorser for the full amount. Judge Reed gave judgment for the plaintiff, but ordered that it not be executed for two weeks from Saturday.

Parties contemplating having their houses moved to new locations, or ele-

vated and rebuilt will save money by corresponding with Abel D. Scull, builder and general house mover. Houses moved in any part of the county. Address A. D. Scull, builder, Thistle Cottage, Ocean City, N. J. Paper hanging, decorating, painting, graining and sign writing. All work guaranteed at Smith's, 6th and Asbury. BRICK! BRICK!!

EGG HARBOR CITY.

George Mueller has been appointed postmaster to succeed Henry Schmitz, whose term expired some time ago. Mr. Mueller received the popular endorsement of the citizens, while William Mueller, his uncle, was endorsed by the County Committee. LEEDS' POINT. Samuel Bowen, 74 years old, who resided at this place, died last Wednesday night from injuries received two weeks ago, by being knocked down and run over by a bicycle ridden by Benjamin Risley, of Pleasantville. The authorities are investigating the matter. Mr. Bowen was one of the oldest residents of this place and was the father of Freeholder John Bowen, of Atlantic City.

PORT REPUBLIC.

An eighteen year old daughter of Alfred Webb was found dead in bed soon after supper Saturday evening. By her side was an empty bottle marked "poison." What kind of a drug it contained is not yet known. Coroner Ingersoll is investigating the case. Her parents can give no reason why she should take her life. She was attractive and had many admirers, and was of a jovial disposition.

SEAVIEW.

James Jeffries is still on the sick list. Mrs. Mary Smith is very poorly. Elvin English is at home for a few days. He will soon be employed on a tug boat on the Delaware.

The ladies of Bethel M. E. Church will give a chrysanthemum supper next Saturday and Sunday in Barrett's Hall.

The supper given by the ladies of the Baptist Church last Friday evening was a success. STEELMANVILLE. Ezra Conover and wife were visiting relatives here over Sunday. Mrs. John B. Steelman will leave this week for Philadelphia where she will undergo an operation for an affection of the mouth. Miss S. Wheaton went to Philadelphia on Tuesday to replenish her stock. Elwood Mason, of Scullville, and Miss Jennie Steelman, of this place, were married on Sunday evening the 12th inst. by Rev. John I. Corson.

ABSECON. An extra effort for the elevation of souls was begun at the M. E. Church Sunday evening. Rev. Mr. Belting, of Atlantic City, preached Sunday evening and Rev. Mr. Dare Tuesday evening. Captain A. Conover and family have moved to Atlantic City for the winter. The Commissioners of Appeal will meet in the Town Hall on Tuesday next. Blacksmith Cordery reports a brisk business for this time of the year. Captain James B. Townsend left on Monday for Baltimore to look after his vessel, which was damaged by the late storm. Miss Eva Madden is visiting friends at Bridgeton and elsewhere.

BAKERSVILLE. Abner Price has commenced the erection of a house on his property adjoining the residence of Dr. G. P. Gehring. Samuel Burroughs, Jr., who visited Chicago during the closing days of the Columbian Exposition, was the sixteenth representative at the World's Fair from this place.

Bicycle riding on the sidewalk continues to be a nuisance. An elderly lady was knocked down recently on the outskirts of town by being struck

by a bicycle at night. A second case is also reported. A young lady returning home in the early evening was struck on the shoulder by a passing wheel.

Two riders were riding close together. No danger signals were displayed. The first wheel was passed in safety. The second was not seen until it struck the lady. Shall our township committee allow wheelmen the right of way on the sidewalk to the peril of pedestrians?

SMITH'S LANDING.

The Atlantic county Sunday-school Association held its twenty-seventh session in the Salem M. E. Church on the 15th inst. Rev. C. K. Fleming, pastor of the church, made the address of welcome, to which Allen B. Endicott, Esq., president of the association, responded. Three distinct sessions were held, and all largely attended. The township reports were, perhaps, never more encouraging, and the addresses delivered were of a high order. The enthusiasm aroused in the Sunday-school work throughout the county was a remarkable feature of the day. The members

of the convention, by vote, declared themselves royally entertained by the

good people of this place, and unanimously agreed to hold their next annual session in Atlantic City a year hence. A very pleasant little wedding took place at the residence of the bride's parents on 15th inst. Rev. C. K. Fleming officiated. The contracting parties were J. Harry Happersett, of Atlantic City, and Miss Cenola Hilton, of this place. The Salem M. E. Church is in a peaceful and prosperous condition, and there is at presence no feature in church work among them so promising as the Children's Band in charge of Mrs. C. K. Fleming, which meets on each Friday afternoon at 3.30, holding a session one hour long devoted to the various lines of pious instructions. About one hundred were present in the large Sunday-school room on last Friday. This devoted lady with her helpers is manifesting a most commendable zeal in looking up and interesting the young and susceptible mind of childhood. What in our day is so necessary?

The two public schools in this borough are, under competent and faithful teachers, doing well. Let our public schools be remembered, visited, and more highly appreciated. The system of instruction and fidelity to it have given us a noble State record, read and known far and near.

ATLANTIC CITY. Building Inspector Westcott, of this place, has ordered the demolition of a row of houses on North Kentucky avenue belonging to John Schwinghammer, of Egg Harbor City. Numerous candidates for municipal officers, to be chosen in the spring, are being announced, and it is proposed to raise the salary of the Mayor from $1000 to $2000 a year. During the absence of the family on Saturday night, burglars broke into the

residence of David Nassano, No. 36 North Carolina avenue. When Mrs.

Nassane entered the front door upon her return home one of the thieves pointed a gun at her and threatened to shoot if she stirred, while he and his accomplices escaped by the back door. Several articles were packed for removal, but the gun is all that has been missed.

The bursting of a water main at Pacific and Ocean avenues Monday flooded the streets for several squares.

A big two-masted schooner, bound north, ran on Brigantine Shoals Thursday morning, but got off without serious damage. Captain Parker, of the Life Saving Station, went out with his men, but did not learn the vessel's name. Three other vessels grounded the same morning, but were floated later. Strong gales were blowing from the west and the sea was running very high. By the accidental discharge of a gun Thursday in the hands of Councilman H. H. Postoll, William Giberson had his left foot blown off. They were gunning near Smith's Landing when the accident occurred. Efforts are being made to rid North Carolina avenue, this city, of the numerous disreputable houses which have given the street the name of "Whitechapel District." A petition is in circulation, and it is most probable that the houses will go. Mrs. Emma Bryan, residing in the upper section of the town, has received a "White Cap" warning to leave the city. She will not obey. ENGLISH CREEK. Captain David L. Scull is suffering from a sprained wrist.

Edgar Steelman, son of Somers Steel-

man, is suffering from blood poisoning caused by a pin being stuck in his leg at the knee by one of his playmates. Summerill Smith is suffering from erysipelas in his hand and arm. Dr. Wright, of Atlantic City, is attending him. Mrs. Daniel Lee has returned home after spending a week with her daughter, Rhoda, in Florence.

James Yates and wife, of Pleasant-

ville, are spending a few days with Summerill Smith. Mr. Yates is enjoy-

ing rabbit hunting. Charles Smith, of Atlantic City, is boarding with Mrs. L. H. Smith while he is building the new house of J. W. Ingersoll. Somers L. Albertson is improving his property by building a new barn. Captain Enoch A. Smith and wife spent Saturday and Sunday in Atlantic City. As this is a two-years' appointment, people are beginning to say, "I wonder who our new preacher will be?"

Morris Johnson, of Atlantic City, spent Sunday with H. L. Smith.

Rev. J. Osterberry and family took tea with Mrs. L. H. Smith on Thurs-

day.

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 the care of
