Miss Jennie Taggart, of Philadelphia, spent a few days in Ocean City this week. Miss Taggart is so impressed with the attractions of our seaside resort that she intends increasing her real estate holdings. The Legislature has passed the bill which permits Sheriffs to choose the newspapers in which to advertise, and removes the restriction of advertising only in the newspapers that are designated to publish laws. The story telegraphed broadcast last Thursday that there was a ship on fire a few miles off this city had no other foundation than that the sun-dried meadow grass on the outskirts of the town was burning steadily for a few hours.

An effort is being made to have the county seat moved to Seaville, where it would be more convenient for the resi-

dents in the upper part of the county

and just as handy for Cape May City people, as the latter would only spend about ten minutes longer on the cars.

Were it located at Seaville, parties from

Avalon, Sea Isle City and Ocean City having business at the county offices could make the return trip in less than

a half day, while at Court House the

time required is a full day, and at Court time persons are required to go down the night before.

Flag Presentation.

The flag and Bible presentation which took place at Somers' Point Saturday was one of the most notable of the many pleasant occasions in which Iota Council, No. 126, Jr. O. U. A. M., of Ocean City, has participated. The members of the order on the above day formed in line at their hall on Asbury avenue shortly after 1 o'clock and headed by the W. A. Manahan Cornet Band took up the line of march for the Fourth street wharf, where boats were in waiting to convey them across Great Egg Harbor Inlet. Upon reaching Somers' Point the Mechanics were met by Mayor Kates and Rev. Mr. Osterberry, who conducted them to the school house, where the presentation exercises took place. The Rev. Mr. Osterberry opened the exercises with prayer. Then Mayor Kates addressed a few words of welcome to the visitors and was responded to be J. M. White. The audience rendered "My Country 'tis of thee" while the Stars and Stripes were unfurled to the breeze. William Lake, an honorary member of the order, made the presentation speech, during which he recited much of Somers' Point history, and paid high tribute to the patriotism of Captain Somers, who achieved distinction as an American naval officer and to whose memory a monument has been erected near the public school by the residents of Somers' Point. The speech was well received. Mayor Keates, on behalf of the school trustees, received the gifts in a very appropriate speech, promising that the flag should be unfurled upon every favorable occasion. Milton Clements and Lina Robins, scholars of Somers' Point school, recited in admirable style selections appropriate to the day. A most delightful concert by the band concluded the programme. Then Mayor Keates extended an invitation to the order and their lady friends to accom-

any him to Treen's Villa, where the school trustees had prepared an excel-

lent set-out, not forgetting the afterdinner cigar. The gentlemen forming the Board of Trustees do not believe in doing things in a half-hearted way, and when they

delegated Mr. Kates to look after the arrangements they knew their wishes would be carried out to the letter.

Jacob Still, Ocean City's peanut merchant, who accompanied the boys, well stocked with this article of merchandise, met with a surprise when Mayor Keates purchased his entire stock for free distribution among the school children.

A Game of Fisticuffs.

Two of the most prominent business men of Atlantic City, Samuel Sternberger and W. F. Wahl, a wealthy shoe dealer, had a misunderstanding on Atlantic avenue, that city, Thursday afternoon which ended in a free fight and the arrest of the former. Sternberger met Wahl on the street and asked him for $160, which amount he claimed was due him as commission on a property which he had recently sold for Wahl. The shoe merchant offered to pay $30 in full settlement, but this offer was refused, and a war of words ensued. In the midst of it Wahl suddenly struck Sternberger in the face. The latter returned the blow and things were getting decidedly interesting when an officer appeared on the scene and arrested Sternberger for creating a disturbance. He was given a hearing and fined $10.

mated affair. Men's wages for working on the roads were advanced from $1.25

PORT REPUBLIC. Many are the pleasant rides taken from Burlington to Atlantic county, and vice versa, these lovely spring days. Spring is always peculiarly beautiful in Port Republic particularly along Nacot Creek.

The revival of spring has brought the return of some of our old feathered songsters whose absence for several years has filled us with much regret.

Did the ugly little sparrows drive them away, or has the worthless and wicked human hand of destruction

been the cause, in order to supply the senseless demand of fashion?

Miss Lizzie Adams returned home from Berlin last week. She was greeted with pleasure by her many friends and they are sorry to learn that she will soon leave us again to spend the season on her Uncle's vessel. Miss Lizzie Hanes, the pleasant friend of Miss Frambes, was noticed at church in her company last Sabbath. The watermen continue complaining of "hard times." Many vessels are laid up and many are running "out of pocket." Can any one see the end? Harry Collins, who was reported at last writing as very ill, has rallied and

we hope he is now beyond danger. His sister who has faithfully nursed him will soon return to her duties in the city.

Miss Helen French, who has not been

well for many months, has commenced school again. We hope the genial weather will fully restore her health.

ATLANTIC CITY.

The body of a new-born colored infant was found in an alley running from South Delaware avenue at a late hour Thursday evening. The body was still warm and showed that the child had

been strangled to death.

Aaron Hinkle, Warren Somers and Clement J. Adams have been elected members of the City Board of Education. City Council has again passed the

ordinance providing for the purchase of the two water companies, and an at-

tempt will be made to hold them to

their original agreement. There are two visible and very noticeable indications that the Spring season is in full swing. The first and more important is the increasing number of pretty brides and submissive grooms who are much in evidence both about

the hotels and in the boardwalk pavil-

ions. It seems as though every hotel

has at least one of these newly-wedded and blissful couples, and the larger hotels have two pair and upward to a half dozen.

As to the other harbinger of Spring, the lesser of the two, it is the hokey pokey vender. With his somewhat picturesque outfit of donkey cart, re-

minding one of the prints depicting Palestine, he is to be seen and heard on the thoroughfares.

The weather altogether has been pleasant during the week and has had the effect of filling the hotels to overflowing along the beach front. The in-

creasing pleasure seeking and loving public have caused the amusement companies in a degree to put in motion their concerns and have met with gratifying results. Up at the Inlet the Brigantine Transit Company has begun the running of one of their steamers across the Inlet and the Longport elec-

tric service has been increased with ad-

ditional trains. The new colored Odd Fellows' Hall will be dedicated on May 6. Henry Peterson, Thomas Brady and Joseph Scull, who rescued the two Pittsburg boys from drowning, have been rewarded by the parents of the boys for their services.

Irving Carver, an urchin about 10 years of age, arrived in this city a few

days ago alone and in search of a lady named Lancaster. The boy was taken care of by Mrs. Annie Mehler, of North Carolina Avenue, and sent to his home in Philadelphia.

James Piner, the colored police officer, who has thrice been suspended by the

Chief of Police and as many times reinstated by City Council through his political influence, has resigned and thereby relieved the strain upon Chief Eldridge.

Mrs. H. D. Robinson spent a few days in Philadelphia this week. The DeMoss family will be at the

Baptist Church on Saturday evening, May 5th. They will give one of their

grand musical concerts. Every one who visited the World's Fair must have heard the excellent music rendered by them there. This is a chance to
