OCEAN CITY SENTINEL.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 10, 1895. We shall be glad to receive items of news and communications of interest to this community and our readers everywhere. All communications should be accompanied with the full name and address of the writer, not necessarily for publication, but a guarantee of good faith.

LOCAL NEWS. Mrs. Rebecca Smith, wife of F. J. Smith, is seriously ill. City Council will meet in regular session to-morrow evening. Three of John Jeffries' children are suffering with the quinsy. The Board of Education held a special meeting last Saturday evening. The municipal election pot is already bubbling in a very lively manner. It was a green Christmas, but it has been winter with a vengeance since. The Cape May County Board of Freeholders will meet at the Court House to-day. The January meeting of the Ocean City Building and Loan Association will be held next Saturday evening. Robert Fisher will build an office on Asbury avenue, near Seventh street. Misses Helen and Alice Canfield are spending a few days in Philadelphia. The coal men were kept very busy carting out coal during the cold snap. Miss Hannie Scull is visiting her parents at Steelmanville for a few days. The municipal election takes place March 5th. Plenty of time, boys. Go easy. Contractor A. D. Scull will build Fred. Carter's cottage on Asbury avenue, near Fifth street. R. B. Stites & Co. were awarded the contract to furnish the lumber of J. G. Gandy's new cottage. A. F. Ervin, of Philadelphia, was in this city on Tuesday and Wednesday viewing the improvements. Miss Mattie Boyle, who is spending the waiter in Brooklyn, was here last week looking after her interests. Messrs. Gilbert & Lake have the contract for painting the new cottage at Sixteenth street and Asbury avenue. I. S. Champion, ice cream manufacturer harvested some fine ice during the cold snap on Friday and Saturday. Mrs. J. N. Johnson is spending a season with relatives in Burlington. Mr. Johnson was there a few days last

week.

Messrs. Jeffries & Kates, Atlantic City undertakers, have opened an office in this city, with Gilbert & Lake as agents. Captain I. G. Adams, of Atlantic City, owner of Adams' casino at the foot of Ninth street, was in this city on Saturday. Many of our property owners are having their lots brushed. It is surprising to see what an improvement it makes to the town. H. G. Steelman & Co. have commenced the erection of another cottage on Wesley avenue, between Seventh and Eighth streets. Jordan Matthews, Jr., Robert Steward and George Fenstermacher, of Philadelphia, were here on Tuesday looking after their interests. R. W. Rutherford, of Philadelphia, has rented Councilman Steelman's cottage, on Asbury avenue near Thirteenth street, for the coming season. D. S. Sampson, tinsmith, is kept very busy. This week he is putting on the roof of the boarding house in course of erection at Seventh and Central. Leaming Stevenson has moved his family from Petersburg to this city, domiciling them in an Asbury avenue cottage, between Seventh and Eighth streets. B. C. Ingersoll and family, who moved to Millville about two years ago, have returned to this city and are occupying one of Abel D. Scull's cottages on Wesley avenue, near Eleventh street. We are under obligations to Mark Baner, who is spending the winter in California, for a descriptive and illustrated paper of the Golden Gate State, prepared for the Columbian exposition. G. P. Moore has the contract to build a cottage on Central avenue, between Ninth and Tenth streets, for Thomas H. Jackson, of West Chester. Messrs. Stonehill & Adams will do the mason work. James F. Davis, accompanied by his son William, Samuel Steelman and William Kaighn, of Camden, have been enjoying a few days at the formers' cottage, corner First street and Asbury avenue. J. G. Gandy will build a cottage on Asbury avenue, between Eleventh and

Twelfth streets. Contractor A. D. Scull will oversee the carpenter work and Messrs. Stonehill & Adams will do the masonry.

Cold weather may suit some people, but not those who are deprived of work by it. Nobody was more interested in the rise and fall of the thermometer last Friday and Saturday than the bricklayers and carpenters. The excellent skating last week was a source of much enjoyment to the young folks and children, while many of the staid and more quiet people renewed their youth by participating in this well remembered pleasure of earlier days. Rev. Thomas Harrison, the evangelist who conducted the services at the camp meeting here last August, is assisting Rev. S. W. Lake in a revival at the latter's church in Bridgeton. About seventy-five were at the altar Sunday evening. Plumbers have profited somewhat by the cold weather and the carelessness of housekeepers in not protecting exposed water pipes. A good many were frozen last week, but nothing at all serious when compared with former mishaps in this way.

ATLANTIC COUNTY GLEANINGS. News Notes Gathered Through the Villages for the "Sentinel."

HAMMONTON. Clark P. Hill, a well-known resident of this city, died Thursday of apoplexy. He was 74 years of age, and was born in Pittsfield, Va. He settled in this city 25 years ago, and held frequently the office of Chairman of the Atlantic County Democratic Executive Committee. ABSECON. The remains of Miss Mabel Wootton, of Atlantic City, were interred in the M. E. Cemetery on Thursday. Our esteemed townsman, Aaron S. Frambes, died on Thursday last, in the 73d year of his age. Deceased had been ill for a long time. Mr. Frambes was a man of exemplary character, a true christian, and one well liked in the community. The funeral took place on Monday morning and was largely attended. MAY'S LANDING. Rev. T. C. Carman, a former pastor, occupied the pulpit of the M. E. church on Sunday last, preaching excellent sermons. Mifflin Paul was taken to the Insane Asylum at Trenton last week. The physicians have hopes of his recovery. D. E. Iszard and wife celebrated the twentieth anniversary of their marriage Friday evening. A meeting of the Board of Education was held in Veal's Open House Saturday afternoon. The Board of Freeholders held their January meeting yesterday. ENGLISH CREEK. Skating on the millpond has been the pasttime of the day by the old and young. Mrs. Sarah English spent Friday in Philadelphia. Mrs. Caddie Smith spent a few days last week at May's Landing with her daughter Ida who was very sick, but is now improving. Mr. Michael and wife, of Florence, have been spending a season with their mother, Mrs. Daniel Lee. Burris Dennis and wife gave a dinner to a number of their friends on Sunday. NEW JERSEY will soon have a grand showing at the National capitol. When her solid delegation of Republican Congressmen, and a Republican United States Senator take their seats in the Congress, she will have a nobler standing and a greater power and influence. Jerseymen will feel proud when they visit Washington to see the state so ably represented by men who will take care of her great and varied industries. PLEASANTVILLE. Wright Price and Mr. English were in town Sunday. John Burroughs, Jr., and wife were the guests of Mrs. Channels Sunday. William Adams and family spent Sunday with Mrs. E. Ingersoll. Alvin Homan spent Sunday here. Mrs. Acilla Turner spent part of this week in Atlantic City. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Lake spent New Year's in Atlantic City. Mrs. Reinar has returned from Philadelphia. Samuel Martin is meeting with success in the milk business. The Adams brothers were successful in filling their ice house. The young people of this vicinity enjoyed the skating. The house of Frank Webb is completed. Miss Minnie Slands has moved to Bargaintown. Mark Lake returned to Camden Sunday. William Gregory is visiting our town. Miss Lena Hewitt is visiting her cousin, Miss Lulu Hewitt. We are glad to hear Mrs. J. L. Watson is improving. The members of Mt. Pleasant Church gave a pound party to Rev. J. L. Watson.

PORT REPUBLIC. John Channels, an elderly and much esteemed resident of our town, is very sick of brights disease. We hope, however, that he will rally. We do not like to have the sinew of our community leave us so soon. His has been a temperate and praiseworthy life. Captain Leck Bowen is recovering from a severe attack of rheumatism. The weather has been most favorable for diseases of like nature. Horace Rose is recovering slowly from an attack of malaria. We hope to see him out soon.

Captain Joel Rose has returned home for the winter.

Warren Rose has returned to school. Miss Eva Bowen returned from a most pleasurable visit with her Philadelphia friends during the holidays.

At this writing Miss Anna Huntley is quite sick of grippe. The news of George Leek's marriage to Miss Ida Williams, of Philadelphia last Thursday, was quite a surprise to their many friends. Their wedding was to have occurred last October, but was postponed in consequence of Mr. Leek's poor health. He has not regained his strength nor health yet, but we all hope to see him well again and fully established among us with his young bride. E. D. French had quite a large sale of stock and various articles on the fifth. In consequence of hard times and the peculiar conditions of the sale, prices ran low. We hope Mr. F. is not going to leave Port. Many poor men will miss him if he leaves. Miss Amanda Blake's genial face is again frequently seen in her father's store, her own business of millinery being dull at present. The cold weather has been a boon to our little village. The owners of ice houses have filled them, thus insuring ice cream to the pleasure seekers of next summer, and refreshing beverages to the sick. The skaters have not failed to avail themselves of the opportunity of not only skating but flirting, breaking and mending hearts as well as skates, heads as well as heels. The last week of '94 and the first of '95 will long be remembered by the pleasure seekers.

ATLANTIC CITY.

Harry Roop, a young man, was held Saturday upon a charge of stealing Druggist Post's bicycle. The wheel was taken over a month ago and sold in Philadelphia. Roop was held under $500 bail to answer at Court. Samuel Schweisfort, a beach-front restauranteur, has purchased a lot with a frontage of 75 feet at the foot of South Carolina avenue, and will erect a modern five-story hotel. Mr. Schweisfort will conduct a cafe on a large scale in connection with his hotel, which will be a model seaside resort hostelrie. It is the general opinion in this city that the severe sentences pronounced recently upon three disorderly house proprietresses will have the effect of purifying the city of this evil. The church people are jubilant. The Taxpayers' League held a meeting Thursday night, but, after discussing the proposed financial investigation

for some two hours, were unable to

agree upon a course of procedure. The proposed investigation, it is estimated, will cost fully $2000. Council, in making appropriations for the present year,

provided for paying off some $35,000 worth of city bonds. This action raised the tax rate to $4.96, and, although this

rate is not considered high in cities situated as this city is, there was an immediate howl of indignation, and the present Taxpayers' League was hurriedly organized to demand some sort of an investigation. Council is ready and willing to pay the costs of such inquiry if it is shown that the majority of citizens desire it. This has not yet been demonstrated. The meeting also adopted amendments to the new city charter, providing that the bonded indebtedness of the city shall not exceed

$500,000; that there shall be nine Councilmen instead of 17, as at present, to receive an annual salary of $500; that the City Comptroller shall be elected by the people and not appointed by Councilmen; that the Mayor, instead of Council, shall have power to appoint and discharge police officers; that the schools shall be managed by a Board of Education, as at present, and not by Council, as proposed; that the people shall have a right to vote on the question of purchasing sewer plants, electric light plants, etc. and that the Board of Education shall be appointed by the Mayor, instead of City Council. Senator Hoffman was requested to present the amendments to the Legislature. Rev. G. S. Meserole, of Long Branch, preached to the Central M. E. congregation on Sunday.

Councilman Fritz Cronecker, of this city, died at 2 o'clock Friday morning at his home here, after an illness of a few days. Mr. Cronecker was one of Sea Isle City's pioneer hotel keepers, and was popular among Philadelphia business men. He was a member of a number of German societies, and had been active in city affairs for a number of years, being at the time of his death a member of City Council. He leaves a wife and six children. DENNISVILLE. The unmarked grave of John Grace, a Revolutionary scout who served on General Washington's staff, in the ancient Union burying ground at South Dennis, is about to be properly honored by a monument, the money for which it is designated to raise by popular subscription. As a lesson in patriotism it has been suggested that the children of the public schools in the county shall contribute the sum for the praiseworthy effort. This plan meets the approval of County Superintendent of Public Schools Vencent O. Miller and other public men. Grace was a man of whom General Washington said, "British gold will not buy him." CAPE MAY CITY. Mayor Hildreth is making extensive improvements to his residence. Councilman Doak's cottage is being painted.

Their Annual Supper.

The first annual reunion and supper of the Ocean City Republican Club was held in their rooms on Asbury avenue, near Seventh street, on Thursday evening last. The hall was artistically decorated for the occasion with bunting and evergreens, while a number of

colored electric lights enhanced the

festive scene. A transparency bearing a bee-hive scene, over which was painted the words "Welcome to," caught the eye as one entered the hall. J. S. Rush was the artist to whom the club was indebted for this novel idea. Promptly at 8 o'clock the assemblage

was called to order, and after R. C. Robinson, president of the club, had invoked a blessing upon the exercises of the evening, the feast began. There was nothing missing from the menu that the most fastidious epicure's heart could desire, and for about an hour the colored waiters, six in number, were kept scurrying around in order to render prompt service to the guests. After supper Miss Mabel Corson opened the second part of the programme with an organ voluntary. G. P. Moore, Robert Fisher and Harry Kalbach delivered speeches and Mrs. M. T. Rush recited, each in their turn being loudly applauded. Alonzo Cotton, Ira S. Champion, T. E. Bennett, J. S. Rush, R. B. Stites, and others, although not down on the programme, were called upon for speeches, and responded. The music was rendered by James W. Lee, Mrs. J. W. Lee, S. W. Sharp, Mrs. S. W. Sharp and Miss Maud Sharp. Among the airs rendered was one composed for the occasion, "The War Cry," which met with prolonged applause. There were about seventy-eight persons who sat down to the banquet, and the scene, as they took their places around the banqueting board, presented a charming picture. Youth, beauty and fashion had their representatives in the gathering. The committee having the arrangements in charge consisted of Robert Fisher, Maris Moore and S. W. Sharp, and they discharged their duties so satisfactorily that their first efforts in behalf of the club were voted a perfect success. A handsome cake, bearing the words, in raised letters, "Ocean City Republican Club," graced the table. It was a present from R. R. Sooy, of Philadel-

phia.
