THE days are sensibly growing shorter, and long evenings of the pleasant weather steal upon us with a sense of contentment and enjoyment which renders them very attractive. Time flies rapidly, and it surprises us to find that we are already far advanced in the latter half of a year that seems to have opened upon us but yesterday.

A CONSIGNMENT of fifty young women, "sound, good-looking, under 20 years of age, and carefully selected," says the report, have been sent to West Australia at the expense of the Colonial Government, in order to provide wives for the colonist. West Australia, according to recent accounts, is surpassingly rich in gold. Eden itself was a desolation for Adam before the advent of Eve, and without women West Australia's crown of gold lacked the gems.

THE NEW SCHOOL LAW.

Opposition to the new school law is cropping out in many places throughout the State. There is scarcely a county but that has in it some community that is wrestling with the question whether its reforms are genuine or otherwise. The State School Department does not hesitate to say that there is much kicking and many objections raised about the law, but not as much as was expected by them. The new township law practically upsets the old-fashioned school district traditions and customs. In the breaking up of these old-time arrangements there have been troubles of all kinds, and no two troubled communities seem to have the same grievances. This much can be said of the system, and that is that the States that have adopted it have never returned to the District School system. It being such a radical one, it naturally brought out strong criticism, and it was enacted more to assist the rural schools where the improvement has been slow, and it was a question with the department whether the country schools were not actually deteriorating. By this law there will be equal school privileges with equal school burden. The poorer section of the township will be helped out by the wealthier. It will also ensure longer school terms, for the law of the State requires that all schools receiving public money shall be kept open nine months in the year. The poverty of some districts has made this law practically imperative, except by the employment of the cheapest and most incompetent teachers. It is also reasonable to expect that in the larger districts, namely, the entire township, that it will be easier to find nine men who have the interests of education at heart more than three men in a smaller district under the old system. The office of school trustee will now carry with it sufficient dignity and importance, and it will be quite possible to secure the services of the best men in the commu-

nity.

Under the old system there was a great wastefulness in school expenditures, which will be avoided in the future. It will expedite the erection of new buildings, secure better improvements, more modern paraphernalia and better qualified teachers. It is really a step forward and one that the State has badly needed. It is expected before the next Legislature convenes that the merits of the Township act will be appreciated and nothing will be heard of the proposed repealer.

Pennsylvania's Tours to the South. For several seasons past the announcement of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company's Tours to the South has been looked for with interest, and the pleasant anticipations of those who participated in them have been more than realized. For the present early autumn, announcement is made of two personally-conducted tours from New York to the mountains of Maryland and Virginia and the two most prominent cities of the upper South. The specific points covered by these tours are Gettysburg, Blue Mountain, Luray Caverns, Natural Bridge, the Grottoes of the Shenandoah, and the cities of Richmond and Washington. It would be difficult to plan a tour of ten days which would embrace a more interesting group of places, as every one of them has an individual interest that cannot fail to enlist wide and favorable attention. The scenery of the entire route is picturesque and attractive, and the season is timid so as to present the scenic beauties in their best form. These tours will leave New York and Philadelphia on September 15 and 29, the members of the party will travel in special trains of parlor cars provided exclusively for their use. The entire round trip covers a period of ten days, and excursion tickets, including all traveling expenses, will be sold from New York for $55 and Philadelphia $53. For itineraries containing complete information as to routes, special train service, descriptive notes, etc., apply to or address Tourist Agent, 1196 Broadway, N. Y., or Broad Street, Philadelphia.

OCEAN CITY. A Place by the Sea Where the Sabbath is Kept--Founded by Three Methodists. The following was written by L. E. Holden, president of the Cleveland Plain Dealer Co., O., and published in its issue of August 27th. Mr. Holden owns one of the finest hotels in the West--The Hollenden, of Cleveland. He is engaged extensively in mining, owning the greater part of the old Jordan and Salena mines in Bingham Canyon, Utah, adjoining the extensive mines of the Niagara Mining and Smelting Co., of which our summer townsman, Dr. G. E. Palen, is president, and also another of our summer

residents, C. H. Schermerhorn, is secretary. Mr. Holden and daughter were the guests of Dr. G. E. Palen, and they were delighted with Ocean City:

"This is a peculiar seaside resort. It is an island about eight miles long and from half a mile to a mile and a-half in width. It was made by the storms and the drifting sands of the sea. It was built out as a tongue of land and gradually raised from the sea level until its

surface is from five to fifteen feet above the tide. On the sea side is the At-

lantic ocean and a beach, shallow, sandy, excellent for bathing, with surf unsurpassed on any other shore of the ocean. Back behind this island is a kind of bay or lagoon with water from one foot to fifteen feet in depth, extending in a thousand ramifications into the land until it reaches back to a solid shore that was the ancient shore

of the Atlantic ocean.

"This beach is known in the geographies as Peck's Beach. It is about twenty-five miles south of Atlantic City, and lies right in front of Great Egg harbor, which affords one of the finest places on the coast for sailing and all kinds of aquatic sports. The climate is a medium between the rigors of the north and the heat of the south. The seasons drift imperceptibly into one another. There is always a cool sea breeze in the summer, and in the autumn and later fall the climate is modified by the close proximity to the sea, while in the winter the gulf stream, by its warm currents, tempers the air and makes it delightful for invalids. Bathing begins the early part of July and is good even until October. The surf is indescribably exhilarating, and the shallow waters upon the beach make it one of the safest places on the coast. The bay is a land-locked sheet of water and runs for miles inland, with great variety of headlands, mouths of rivers and indentations, which make it a most desirable resort because of its scenery and its safety. Over to the west is Beasley's [sic] Point, well known in the councils of Democratic leaders. There stands to-day a house more than 100 years old, and in it have been held many a council for political warfare by the great sachems of the Democratic

party.

"Ocean City was founded by three noted Methodist brothers by the name of Lake. They were all Methodist ministers and they conceived the idea

of a seaside resort where the sale of

liquors should be prohibited and the sanctity of the Sabbath preserved. They associated with themselves leading men in the denomination, among whom was Dr. G. E. Palen, of Philadelphia; G. B. Langly, George L. Horn and Rev. W. B. Wood, and other able and distinguished men in the Metho-

dist Church. They bought 3000 acres of land and founded a city and a community where peace and purity were

ordained to reign forever. They allotted a large portion of this land and showed their confidence by building houses and making improvements such as would be attractive. Now, spacious residences, three large hotels, hundreds of cottages, fine public buildings, steamboat and yacht piers, and a long seashore walk, planked above the tide, show the prosperity, the push and the energy of the people. Every deed calls

the forfeiture of title if liquor is

ever sold upon the lot.

"Already the city is lighted with electricity and an electric railroad extends from one end of the city to the other. An artesian well sunk to the depth of eight hundred feet furnishes an abundance of perfectly pure water. Railroads have been run connecting New York and Philadelphia and now this new city by the sea, where perfect rest and freedom from turmoil and the effect of the gambling house and the dram shop

is assured.

Of course the Methodist idea of worship prevails. The founders of the city set apart a tract of land in the centre of the city as a campus and they have built an auditorium where services are held and where 1200 people can be accommodated. Every autumn a camp meeting is held upon these grounds in good old-fashioned Methodist style. Perhaps there could not be a greater contrast between two cities than between Ocean City and Atlantic City, a few miles north. Atlantic City has become the Coney Island of Philadelphia. Stir, bustle, crowd, restlessness every day in the week characterizes Atlantic City. The multitude are there--all kinds of people. It seems as though on Sunday that all Philadelphia empties itself into Atlantic City, excepting only the Sabbath-loving and Sabbath-keep-ing people. Ocean City is quiet, peaceful, and the Sabbath is like the Puritan Sabbath in the days of old. It is indeed refreshing in these stormy days of ours to find one spot where peace and purity and rest and worship can abide together."

The Lecture. Rev. Wallace MacMullen faced an appreciative audience in the First M. E. Church Tuesday evening when he delivered his lecture on "Robert Burns." Mr. MacMullen is a most pleasing and entertaining talker, and he did his subject that justice which it so eminently deserves. He copiously quoted from Burns' poems, showing his familiarity with the Scottish bard's works, and was frequently encored during the delivery of the lecture. During the entertainment Mrs. E. A. Bourgeois rendered several Scottish airs.

I am prepared to furnish a first-class red brick guaranteed to withstand the most climatic changes, which has no superior in the market at the present time for use in paving. Not only are they a superior article, but the cost is much less than those of other brands now in use in our town. YOUNGS CORSON.

Closing Service of Macedonia M. E. Mission.

The Macedonia M. E. Mission, Rev. J. Edward Gunby, pastor, which was opened July 1, for the spiritual benefit of the colored people who reside here during the summer, closed with an interesting service on Sunday evening last.

The services began with a song service lasting half an hour, at the close of which Rev. E. B. Lake preached an interesting sermon from the text "If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me," which was well received by the congregation composed of both colored and white. Then followed a short address by Dr. G. E. Palen. After this the administration of the Lord's Supper was celebrated, conducted by Mr. Lake amid much rejoicing and many tears of regret and sorrow over the departure of their pastor and friend.

The services of the mission for the year 1894 was brought to a close by singing "We'll never say good-bye in heaven." After the close of the service while singing "God be with you 'till we meet again," hearty hand shaking were indulged in, and the religious services at Steelman's Hall ended. May God's benediction follow their labors. The following named persons contributed or solicited one dollar or more: Mrs. Kitty Raglin, $3.90; Miss Mary M. Lockley, $2.25; Miss Rosa Jones, $2.75; Miss Sarah Thornton, $2.10; Miss Ellie C. Johnson, $2.09; Miss Gardner, $2.00; Mrs. Josephine Gould, $1.95; Miss Emma Branch, $1.40; Miss Leah Robinson, $1.25; Miss Frances Robinson, $1.25; Miss Frances Robinson, $1.25; Mrs. Rosa Hinson, $1.20; Miss Mary Thomas, $1.10; Miss Gray, $1.10; Miss Mary E. Cook, $1.05. Others gave in various amounts, making a total collection of $32. The pastor reported having received through Dr. G. E. Palen $10 from Hon. L. E. Holden, editor of the Cleveland Plain Dealer and $5 from Rev. E. B. Lake, and the use of the hall without charge by the Mayor. Thus the total received for the week netted about $50.

Wanamaker's. Wanamaker's. PHILADELPHIA, MONAY, September 3, 1894.

NO OTHER RETAIL HOUSE in the United States, so far as we can learn has passed through the Custom House so many cases of merchandise within this current week. We have taken out SINCE LAST MONDAY MIDNIGHT more than two hundred cases of goods.

Selling our goods in America we would like to buy them all in America, but the Congress of the United States declares we must not, when it allows manufacturers abroad to undersell home manufacturers.

American workmen are the smartest in the world, but so far they have not learned to buck against the half pay of the old world. Therefore Europe laughs for joy, shows her samples and takes orders fast. We shall always buy all we can in America and always give preference to Philadelphia-made goods. As merchants we owe it to our customers to get from everywhere the best and at the lowest rate the article can be produced for.

WHEN THE TARIFF FELL it was silly to flop and flutter and postpone action.

WE HAD POSSESSION OF OUR OWN MINDS and anticipated the effect of the law by promptly making A NEW SCALE OF PRICES

These are the kind of things that grandmotherly-grand people call "sensations," but we cannot go to sleep as if nothing had happened when an entire change arises in the business conditions of the country.

WE GO IN FOR COMMON SENSE and have shaped our course to meet this new situation.

FIRST--With a small stock of foreign goods in store.

SECOND--With a large stock of foreign goods in the Custom House and afloat.

THIRD--With all the large lots of various kinds of merchandise on hand that we could get under Tariff prices.

While we suffer by losing on goods in store whatever duty we paid the government in excess of what we are now paying on new importations, we UNCOMPLAININGLY TAKE THE LOSS, and our customers have the satisfaction of knowing that what they buy of us is as low as it is ever

likely to be--and maybe lower.

LAST YEAR'S FRET AND FEVER of the merchants and manufacturers as has resulted in great losses on goods, and the salvage still beats up on our store shore, as can be seen

by the terribly low prices still going for goods not imported.

FINE DRESS GOODS SOME AT THIRD PRICES If these fine imported Dress Stuffs were bought now for delivery next January they would be marked much more than present prices when they reached our counters! There is nothing in the goods themselves or in the prevailing market conditions to warrant such little figures on such choice

goods.

WOODLAND CEMETERY. A Great Want Supplied.

A charter has been recently obtained and a tract of land containing thirty acres situate

on the south side of the railroad, north of Ocean View station, secured, and has been surveyed and laid out with convenient and tastefully ar-

ranged drives and plotted in lots, a plan of which can be seen at the office of Jos. I. Scull, Secretary, Sea Isle City, or Robt. Fisher, Ocean City. All lots are larger than customary size.

The West Jersey Railroad Company has built a large platform and made Woodland Cemetery

a regular stop for all local trains, thus affording a great convenience for funerals to come on the train, either from Ocean City, Sea Isle

City or Avalon.

The prices of Burial Lots in the Woodland Cemetery are cheaper than in any other first-

class cemetery in the county. The Company invite special attention to the numerous advantages offered to purchasers in their grounds.

Come in and view them. Nature and art incite inspection and admiration. Now is the time to

secure a place of interment in the very best cemetery in South Jersey. We say the VERY

BEST. It is so on account of its improve-

ments. The cemetery is highly respectable in the character and class of interments in its grounds; many advantages and inducements concentrate here to attract the living, and on account of elevation it is eminently the best.

Besides, it is not embarrassed with debt. It is not exceeded anywhere as a beautiful and final resting place.
