SOUTH ATLANTIC CITY. Borough Clerk Charles Hart was Thursday afternoon charged with the larceny of a gutter pipe from a neighbor's (Mrs. McHugh) house. In support of the charge, Mrs. McHugh alleged that the pipe stolen from her domicile corresponded exactly with a piece on Hart's house. There was not, however, any peculiarity about the missing pipe to distinguish it from any other pipe, and when Hart produced a bill showing he had purchased the pipe supposed to be the purloined article from an Atlantic City firm, the case was dismissed. Mrs. McHugh's cottages have been broken into and robbed a number of times, goods amounting to several hundred dollars being taken. Other depredations have been committed, and it is high time the guilty parties were brought to justice. PLEASANTVILLE. Mark English was in town Sunday.

STEELMANVILLE.

The Christmas entertainment at Bethel M. E. church on Christmas eve was a success. The Christmas Cantata was a credit to the participants. Santa Claus appeared on the scene and presented every member of the school with a box of candy and an orange, beside having a few special presents for his most intimate friends. The church was beautifully trimmed. It was a very enjoyable occasion for both young and old.

Mrs. George Smith, formerly Phoebe Somers, of this place, has taken occupancy of the house near Bethel Station. Friendship M. P. Church had their entertainment on Christmas night. It consisted of speaking and singing. The school was treated. A very interesting time was enjoyed by all present. Amos Lewis and wife, of Somers' Point; Miss Annie Lewis, of Seaview, and Miss Caddie Lewis, of Steelmanville, were the guests of their sister, Mrs. Abram Jagar, of Philadelphia, Christmas Day. The table fairly groaned beneath its load of good things, consisting of roast turkey, with all its accompaniments, together with the delicacies of the season. It was an enjoyable gathering. Lewis Wheaton, of Cape May Court House, spent Christmas with his sister, S. Wheaton, at the old homestead and had a good time generally. Hope he may have many returns of the same. Mr. and Mrs. Albert Morris will leave for Fairport, Va., this week, they having been on a visit to their parents at Seaview for several weeks. Mrs. James Fisher expects to leave soon on a voyage to South America with her husband. She is still with her parents at Seaview, where she has been for some months. ATLANTIC CITY. First Lieutenant J. F. Whalen, Company F, Sixth Regiment, N. G. N. J., has tendered his resignation.

The "Daily Review" displayed enter-

prise in pursuing a finely printed sixteen-

page edition embellished with pictures

of Atlantic City and its leading officials

and business men.

Captain Amasa Brown, the veteran ex-keeper of the Atlantic City Life Saving Station, tripped over a flag-stone on Atlantic avenue on Monday night of last week and, falling heavily, broke his right arm in two places. Captain Bowen, up to the time of his retirement a few months ago, had been in the ser-

vice full 40 years.

Letter Carrier Albert H. Winder's wife left him a few days ago and removed nearly all the household furniture to her mother's house. Winder claimed the goods belonged to him personally and instituted suit, charging larceny. The case was tried before Justice Perkins, and Mrs. Winder's counsel

raised the point that a husband cannot

prosecute a wife on a criminal issue

with such a charge. The Justice de-

clared the point well taken and released Mrs. Winder. Now the husband, who says he does not mind, losing his wife

so much as the goods, is mourning the

loss of both.

Max Aaron, a Hebrew tailor, with four men, started to drive to the mainland Thursday morning in a closed car-

riage to bury a relative. When two

miles west of the city the water was on a level with the horses' breasts, and the driver unhooked them and started back to the city for assistance in bringing the carriage back. About twenty feet of the turnpike bridge weakened by the heavy strain of the turbulent waters, gave way as the horses were crossing, precipitating the animals and the driver into the icy water. The man was benumbed with cold by his long tramp and would have drowned but for the prompt assistance rendered him. The horses swam ashore at Georgia avenue. The Absecon Life Saving crew, at Ventnor, launched a boat and, after a hard pull, rescued the five men. The carriage when the rescuers reached it was

floating about like a boat.

A sailboat twenty feet long, with broken mast, and floating bottom upwards was washed ashore at the foot of Indiana avenue Thursday afternoon.

There is no name or other mark to iden-

tify the craft.

McGuire's bathing establishment, on the beach and Connecticut avenue, collapsed Thursday morning and crashed through the boardwalk. Several large pieces of wreckage were washed up near the iron pier. Hotelkeeper Charles Speidle and his wife were painfully injured Saturday by the explosion of a range boiler in the hotel kitchen. The noise startled the neighborhood. The kitchen was wrecked, the walls being almost denuded of plaster. Pieces of the range were scattered about the room. John Mason, a young man who has served several terms in the county prison, was arrested here Friday on receipt of a telegram from May's Landing, charging him with burglarizing Dr. G. P. Gehring's drug store at that

place.

Fell from His Train. William Miller, brakeman on the accommodation which leaves here at 7.40 a. m., met with an accident Saturday which might have resulted fatally. As the train, which was a mixed one, was passing Thirty-fourth street, Mr. Miller, who was riding on the freight cars, leaned out to see that the train was intact, when he was struck on the hip by the freight platform at that station and thrown forward on his face. In this position he remained until the platform had been passed, when he rolled off, striking the frozen ground head first. It is not known how long he remained where he fell, for when he regained consciousness he managed to crawl some distance from the scene of the accident. A. D. Barrows was the first to discover the injured man, and, assisted by one of the repair men, conveyed him to Mr. Barrow's residence, where everything possible was done to make him comfortable. Medical aid was summoned, and a careful examination revealed the fact that no bones were broken. Mr. Miller was brought to his home in this city upon the return trip of his train. His absence was not discovered until the train reached Sea Isle Junction. Then Conductor Hickey made inquiry, by telegraph, along the line as to the missing man's whereabouts and search was instituted.

Mr. Miller's escape from a horrible death was most miraculous. His injuries consist of severe contusions of the face and body, but it is thought he will be able to resume his duties in two or three weeks.

A new series of shares will be issued by the Building and Loan Association

at their next meeting, provided fifty shares are subscribed. Shares can be

secured by addressing G. P. Moore,

President, Wm. Lake, Secretary, or R. Howard Thorn, Treasurer.

Passed Peacefully Away. Rev. Josiah F. Canfield died at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. Anna G. Canfield, at noon Monday after an illness of three weeks' duration. His end was peaceful. Rev. Canfield was born at Morris Plains, Morris county, this State, March 22, 1808. He received his education at Morris Academy, where, when only fifteen years of age, he received a volume of Thomas Campbell's poems as reward for his proficiency in the Latin language. He entered the Methodist ministry in 1830, when twenty-two years of age, and traveled in the New Jersey Conference until 1855, when his health gave way and he removed with his family to Springfield, Illinois, where he resided until coming to make his home in Ocean City with his eldest daughter, Mrs. Anna G. Canfield, in 1887. When the New Jersey Conference was divided he became a member of the Newark Conference and held his membership there until his death. He is survived by a wife (to whom he was married in 1845) and five children --Mrs. Anna G. Canfield, of Ocean City; Miss Margaret W. Canfield, Mrs. Mary A. Vredenburgh, Mrs. Emily G. Berry and Albert O. Canfield, of Springfield,

Illinois.

The subject of this brief sketch was unusually active for one of his years, and was to be seen almost daily on our streets up to the time of his last illness. He manifested a lively interest in national and municipal affairs. He was a staunch Republican, and never failed to exercise the right of franchise. As the old year waned his life went out. He will be buried at old Zion Cemetery, Bargaintown, Atlantic county, near the church where he preached in 1851-2. Funeral services will be held at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. Anna G. Canfield, Sixth street and Asbury avenue, to-day (Thursday).

Ashore on the Cape Coast. During the severe northeast gale and snow storm which prevailed Wednesday night the three-masted schooner Rodman R. Nickerson, Captain Calvin W. Sprague, from Pigeon Cove, Mass., to Philadelphia, stone laden, ran ashore near Tatham's Beach Life Saving Station. The sea was running so furiously that Captain Sprague and his crew of seven men were all forced into the rigging, where they remained until about 2 o'clock Thursday afternoon, having suffered the greatest agonies. The wind blew a gale all morning, rendering it absolutely impossible for the Stone Harbor life saving crew to take their boat through the surf, but shortly after noon the breeches buoy was placed in operation and all the men were brought safely to the sore, with the exception of the cook, Elmer Smith, of Dennisport, Mass., who not having had time to put on warm clothing, succumbed to the cold and fell backward into the sea, about 11.30 Thursday morning. His body was washed ashore about 2 o'clock. It required much hard labor to bring the benumbed sailors to a normal condition. They were supplied at the life saving station with stimulants and dry clothing. The citizens of Avalon did much to help the life saving men, placing their teams in readiness to take the helpless seamen to the Government building. The vessel, which was about five years old, will prove a total loss. The accident was due to the blinding snow storm and the heavy current which was running in at the time. Captain Sprague hails from Seal Cove, Mt. Desert Island, Maine. The survivors were furnished with transportation and left for their homes on Saturday. Coroner R. C. Robinson viewed the body of the unfortunate cook on Friday, and placed it in charge of Undertaker Devitt, who started East with it on

Monday morning.

CAPTAIN SPRAGUE'S STORY. As soon as Captain Sprague had recovered sufficiently from the effects of his exposure, he gave this graphic account of the occurrences of the past thirty-six hours: "We came through Hell Gate on Wednesday morning and took a severe E. N. E. gale off Barnegate, at 6 o'clock the same night. We were scudding along under two-reefed sails, hoping to reach the Breakwater in safety. From 10 p. m. we made heavy weather, the sea running across midships so that we could not pass for-

ward or aft.

"The snow was so thick that we could make no reckoning from the lights, and I judged by the current that we were well off shore. At half-past 12 she struck the beach head-on. I ordered all hands into the rigging, six men into the fore-rigging and the others into the mizzen. It snowed and hailed all night, the keen wind cut like a knife, and the spray from the sea as it broke over her stern soaked our clothing and froze as fast as it struck us. Before daylight I thought she was braking up aft, and swung hand over hand from the mizzen to the foretop along the mainstay. "The men, who, with the exception of the cook and mate, were all foreigners, I despaired of ever reaching shore, and I had much difficulty in persuading them not to give up. About noon, while the men on shore were trying to throw us a line, the cook, Elmer Smith, lost consciousness and fell from the mizzen-top into the sea; we saw no more of him until the body washed ashore later in the day. He lived at Dennisport, Mass., where he leaves a wife and daughter." Captain Sprague was master of the schooner Frank McDonald, which foundered off Cape Cod, October 4th last. He owned one-sixteenth of the wrecked vessel, insured for $1800 in the Boston Marine. The Nickerson was built at Boston in [?], was 100 feet long, 35 feet beam and 13½ feet hold. She registered 500 tons, and was valued at $23,000.
