The discourse was listened attentively to by a good-sized congregation. Mr. Manchester inaugurated revival service immediately after the evening sermon, which will continue during the entire week.

Mrs. Catharine Cline, an aged widow, living at Estellville, near here, was terribly beaten last Wednesday, it is alleged, by Henry Madden and his wife, of the same place. Some harness had been stolen from Mrs. Cline's barn and she suspected Madden of the theft. She called at the residence of Madden and demanded from him the harness, saying that he had stolen it. Madden and his wife became angry at the charge and both set upon her and badly beat her. Mrs. Cline, as soon as able, came to this place and had a warrant issued for their arrest. Constable Charles Williams arrested the pair late that night and they were committed to the county jail for Court. ATLANTIC CITY. Fully a thousand spectators gathered at the turnpike bridge Saturday afternoon to witness the finish of the bicycle road race from Republic to this city, between Newton Cramer, of the A. C. W. and J. Freas, of the Myrtle Athletic Club. The run was eighteen miles, and Freas won by just three seconds. He felt in a dead faint as soon as the line was crossed, thus nearly keeping both parts of a vow which he had made previous to the race, that he would beat Cramer or die in his saddle. Cramer was almost as fresh as when he started. The official time of the winner was 54 minutes and 27 seconds. Ex-Governor Ludlow, G. O. Roebling, of Trenton, and Edie W. Harrison, of Jersey City, the three Commissioners appointed by Justice Reed, of the Supreme Court, to appraise the two local water plants, met here on Friday.

Newkirk-Cronin. An event that stirred society in Ocean City was the marriage of Miss Annie Ellen Cronin and Hazel Mayhew Newkirk at the First M. E. Church on Thursday evening last at 8.40, Rev. L. O. Manchester performing the ceremony. The church was handsomely trimmed for the occasion.

The bridal party entered the church to the strains of Mendelsshon's wedding march, Mrs. H. G. Steelman presiding at the organ.

The bride, who was given away by William Cronin, her brother, was dressed in white brocaded silk en traine and wore a white lace veil. She carried a bouquet of roses. The groom appeared in full evening dress. Miss Camille Boettger, of Philadelphia, was maid of honor. She wore a pink cashmere. Howard Reed, M. D., of Philadelphia, was best man. Anna Champion filled the roll [sic] of flower girl, and was dressed in white. The ushers were Harry Headley and W. E. Massey. Immediately after the ceremony the bridal party entered their conveyances and were driven to the future home of Mr. and Mrs. Newkirk, where a reception was held. The refreshments served were of the choicest varieties. The church was crowded with those who wished to witness the celebration of the nuptials, and the scene as the bridal party took their positions in front of the chancel railing, where the two young people took upon themselves the vows that made them man and wife, was most impressive. The array of bridal gifts comprised silver, glass and linen, some of the articles being gems in their way. There were present representatives from Philadelphia, Camden, Norristown, Easton, Atlantic Highlands and Bridgeton, many of whom appeared in full evening dress. Mr. and Mrs. Newkirk left on Friday morning for a bridal tour through Pennsylvania, expecting to be absent about two weeks. Upon their return they will commence housekeeping on West street, between Fourth and Fifth streets. This was the first church wedding that has been solemnized in the M. E. Church at this place.

Council Proceedings. A special meeting of Council was held Thursday evening, all the members being present except Councilman Sampson. An ordinance providing for the brushing and filling up of lots was presented and passed first reading.

buildings.

Electrician Kalbach, in response to a request by a committee from Council, appeared before the body and made a statement as to the location of fire alarm boxes throughout the town, and that the probably cost would be about $250. Action on the report was deferred until next meeting. The Building Committee reported

progress.

Hancock and others, and is bounded as follows. Beginning at a stone corner of Isaac W.

Died from Colic.

Rush E. Cox, groceryman, Twelfth street and Asbury avenue, lost a horse by death early Sunday morning. The animal gained its liberty some time during Saturday night, after it had been placed in the stable, and while

wandering through the structure dis-

covered the feed chest from which it proceeded to gorge itself. The unusual quantity of food consumed by the animal produced colic, causing death after intense suffering. Mr. Cox's loss is a

heavy one.

Crushed in a Clay Grinder. William Schenck, son of Rev. William S. Schenk, of the Wesleyan Methodist Church, and an employee at the Industrial Brick Works, of May's Landing, while oiling a clay grinding machine Monday morning had his left leg caught

in a large burr.

His screams brought assistance and the machine was stopped, but not until his limb was badly crushed. The young man's clothing was torn from his body.

CAPE MAY COURT HOUSE. The old organ in the school house is about played out, and an effort is being made to get a new one. Residents who went to school twenty years ago will buy the old instrument as a keepsake. The four-year-old boy of George Hayman was nearly burned to death Monday morning while playing in front of the kitchen stove. He had bunched together a large quantity of straw and ignited it. The flames communicated to his clothing, and he was terribly burned about the face and head before his mother could extinguish the fire. SEA ISLE CITY. Charles K. Landis, founder of Vineland and Sea Isle City, has commenced suits against this city to have set aside as illegal a sale of property made by City Treasurer and Collector Chester to satisfy a claim for taxes. Judge Hoagland, sitting as a Supreme Court Commissioner, will take testimony on Saturday. Charles K. Landis, Jr., represents his father. Early in the summer a number of property owners and prominent residents of this city got together and organized a volunteer fire company. City Council was appealed to for aid, and at one of their meetings made an appropriation of $500 for the use of the company in purchasing fire apparatus. Not one penny of the appropriation has been turned over to the company by City Council, and, as over $1,000,000 worth of property is unprotected by fire, property owners are anxious for City Council to pay over the money so that an engine can be secured. DENNISVILLE. The cat-tail industry will now furnish employment for a number of people for awhile. Thousands are gathered every fall. Mrs. May Jefferson is quite ill. A neat picket fence adorns the property of Hutchinson and Barnes at South Dennis. Mrs. Sallie Henderson is now occupying one of Jesse Hand's tenement houses.
