tage.

terests.

A quilting party at the residence of Mrs. F. J. Smith, Asbury avenue near Fourth street, one day last week, was largely attended and greatly enjoyed. Mrs. A. M. McCullough and son; F. Dalrymple, of Philadelphia, came down on Monday evening and opened the former's Wesley avenue cottage for a season. Captain J. D. Eberbach has had his cottage, corner First street and Haven avenue, greatly improved by an application of paint at the hands of Gilbert A. Lake. The steamer plying between Ocean City and Longport is a great accommodation. It is hoped that enough patronage will be bestowed to warrant its continuance all winter. About sixty-five persons have united with the M. E. church on probation since the revival services have been in progress, and there are many more to follow. May the good work continue. The anthems rendered by the M. E. Church choir, under the efficient direction of Mrs. H. G. Steelman, are highly praised, and it is safe to say are not excelled by any other church choir in this State south of Camden. An adjourned meeting of the Ocean City Republican Club will be held at the rooms on Saturday evening next at 7.30. All those desirous of uniting with the organization are invited to present themselves at this meeting. City Council has ordered the brushing of all lots lying between the bay and ocean and North and Seventeenth streets. No better improvement could be made at such a trifling expense to each individual lot-holder within said boundary.

Robert Fisher has sold four lots south of Seventeenth street to William B. Currey, of Philadelphia; three lots below Sixteenth streets for Rev. S. O. Garrison, of Vineland; one on West avenue, near Seventeenth street, for James Clark, of May's Landing.

Tested the Hose.

The new hose belonging to the Ocean City Volunteer Company was tested Saturday afternoon in the presence of a number of our citizens. The hose was attached to the fire-plug at the corner of Ninth street and Wesley avenue and under a 110 pound pressure threw water to the top of the dome on the Traymore Hotel. This was claimed to be a very severe test and proved the good qualities of the hose. The trial was under the direction of Chief Engineer William Lake, assisted by Samuel Carhart, Assistant Chief.

Miss Mary Abbott and her niece, Miss Clara Hewitt, visited Philadelphia last Monday. Captain Will Blake was home last week taking an affectionate farewell of his new and lovely home previous to making a four months' trip to Para. Men and women gossipers are jubilant, the former beckoning to his neighbor and when within hailing distance whispering, (?) "have you heard," etc.; the latter jabbering over the fence and the eagle is screaming for the boys at the Point and those who were shut out from "the hearing" a year ago.
