The report of the Citizens' Auditing Committee, comprising F. Sidney Townsend and Eldridge Johnson, was not accepted by a majority of Council--Messrs. Stevens, Hand, Poinsett, Hildreth and Halpin--on the ground that ex-Collector Lovett's books were taken from him by order of the Supreme Court before he had time to post them. The matter was referred to the Finance Committee of Council for adjustment. Collector Rodan sent in a communication reporting the names of taxpayers who appeared to be delinquent on the tax duplicate, but who claim to have paid their assessments, in some instances producing receipts to that effect. The amount reported by Mr. Rodan has already reached the sum of $956.28. The majority of Council, previously named, referred the communication to the Finance Committee before its reading had been completed, and for the same reasons that Mr. Lovett did not have access to his books to balance them, after being ousted from his office by action of the Supreme Court. A communication was received from the County Solicitor, Morgan Hand, stating that he had been instructed to proceed at once to collect $5000 due for taxes from Cape May City. Council authorized a four months' note to be discounted to settle the claim. The colored Young Men's Christian Association has its own troubles, which culminated in a stabbing affray Saturday. Sauney Edmunds plunged a knife in the right hip of Edward Cropper while in an altercation over money matters. One was the treasurer and the other was the chaplain. Investigations of public affairs seem to be in order now, and the craze has reached Jersey's jumping off place. The new city Council will ask the Legislature for a committee to investigate the management of municipal affairs here for the past few years. It is alleged that valuable franchises have been voted away without the city deriving any benefit, and that money was freely used to secure the grants. Edward Wharton's family had a narrow escape from suffocation by gas from a coal stove a few nights ago.

Ex-Postmaster Melvin is enjoying a pleasure trip in Washington.

Council Proceedings. The first regular meeting of Council in the new year was held on Friday evening, Mayor Steelman in the chair.

Councilmen Hand, Steelman, Sutton and Sampson were present.

The minutes of the December meeting and those of a special meeting were

read and approved.

The North Point Syndicate petition laid over from the last regular meeting, was again put off for future considera-

tion.

The street committee presented a report stating that 2096 feet of stone street crossings had been laid. The report was referred back for approval as to the

workmanship.

A petition requesting Council to order

the paving of the sidewalks on Asbury avenue, between Sixth and North streets, signed by a number of property owners along said line, was read. On motion it was referred to the Solicitor. An order for $34.10, discount on note renewed in Atlantic City Bank, was drawn in favor of Samuel Schurch,

Collector; one for $521, amount paid on note of $1021 in Vineland Bank; one for $10.50, discount on note of $300, renewed. Quit claim deeds were ordered for W. H. Bassler, Joseph Cunningham and H. B. Kemble. An order for $5.81, overpaid taxes of E. Bolard in 1892, was drawn in favor of the Collector. A petition requesting the grading and graveling of Central avenue from First to Fifth streets, signed by thirty property owners along said line, was read and laid over for future consideration. Bills to the amount of $593.37 were read and ordered paid. The Clerk was instructed to place the unpaid bills for paving on Central avenue from Sixth to Ninth streets in the hands of the Solicitor for collection. A bill for $10 from Mrs. A. Bowen for chickens killed by dogs was referred to the Solicitor. The Surveyor was instructed to give the grade on Second street immediately.

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

HAMMONTON.

Friends of Frank Burgess, a farm laborer, are covering him with congratulations. Burgess is making active preparations to sail in a few days for Melbourne, Australia, to claim a big inheritance. He was notified some days ago that an uncle who had died there had left him a fortune, said to be $50,000--perhaps more.

BAKERSVILLE.

Mrs. Aura Murray, of Wilmington, Del., spent last week with her father, C. Homan, who is slowly recovering from a serious illness. Daniel Delancy is seriously ill. William Glover and family, of Clarksboro, are making an extended visit with Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Yates, Mrs.

Glover's parents.

Dr. Philip Sheridan Steelman, one of our enterprising young men who graduated from the medical school of the Pennsylvania University last spring, has accepted an offer from May's Landing. Dr. Steelman has the grit which makes successful men in the profession.

Peculiar Position of a Prisoner.

Many visitors to the Atlantic county prison at May's Landing become interested in the case of Captain Daniel Walters, who has been a "guest" of Sheriff Johnson since long before the December term of court.

Several years ago the captain purchased a vessel from the Baker Salvage Company, of Norfolk, Va., for $6000, for which he gave notes that he subsequently failed to meet, so it is alleged. The company secured judgment last October, and the captain was arrested and placed in the county jail, where, the law prescribes, he shall remain until he takes advantage of the insolvent debtors' proceeding and gives up all the property he may possess.

This can be done by applying to the Common Pleas Court, but the captain's counsel failed to take this step at the December term of court for some reason and he will necessarily remain a prisoner until the April term of court rolls around. Captain Walters, it is said, owns practically nothing. He is a man of over 60 years and his incarceration goes hard with him.

MAY'S LANDING. During the past year the services of County Physician Souder were required in forty-five different cases. There were six accident cases, four suicides, three drowning cases and two cases of accidental shooting, the remainder having been cases of ordinary diseases.

At the residence of the groom at Clarktown Sunday Rev. William

Schenck, of the Wesleyan Methodist Church, united in marriage before a

large gathering of relatives, John Clark, Sr., and Miss Sallie Butterworth. Mr. Clark is 75 years of age and Miss Butterworth is 56 years old. Mr. Clark is well known in shipping circles throughout the State, and at one time was the largest shipbuilder in South Jersey.

Dull Times at Woodbine Colony. There is room for new settlers at the Baron De Hirsch Woodbine Colony. More farms are vacant this winter than there have been since the settlement was started. Two of the finest farms at the southern end of the colony have recently been vacated by their occupants. Their leaving can only be attributed to the dull times. Things have not been prosperous at Woodbine of late. The big cloak and clothing factory, which, when in operation, gives employment to several hundred hands, has been closed for months. Things were prosperous when the factory was operated, for then not only many of the farmers, but their children, found employment there. The products from the not over fertile farms were by no means sufficient to keep the farmers through the winter, and at present there is no work going on at any of the factories. The colonists have heretofore made considerable money each winter at chopping wood, but this winter the demand for cord wood is not equal to the supply and prices are low. Baron Hirsch has but recently made the statement that he would not encourage Russian Hebrews to come to America to settle, but would divert immigration to the colony in the Argentine Republic. New comers have been few at Woodbine during the past

year.

The trustees are thinking seriously of building a big canning factory and encouraging the farmers to raise tomatoes, which would be canned there. An effort will also be made to open the cloak factory and give employment to the colonists who are now in idleness.

Mayor Ludlam's Narrow Escape. Mayor Ludlam, of Sea Isle City, had a narrow escape from instant death last week while trying to board a rapidly moving express train at Vineland. Mr. Ludlam, who was a passenger on the northbound train, was engaged in con-

versation with a fellow-traveler and did not notice that the train had left the

station until the southbound train was passing. Mr. Ludlam hastily left his seat and dismounted, and in endeavoring to catch the receding train he tripped

over a switch lamp and fell between

the trains. Bystanders turned their heads away, expecting to see the unfortunate man ground to pieces under the

car wheels. When the train came to a

standstill, Mr. Ludlam was found to

have escaped injury, but he received a shock which time cannot efface from

his memory.

PLEASANTVILLE. John Blake, Jr., is on the sick list. Miss Mit Andrews and Eliza Risley are visiting friends in Atlantic City. Mrs. Samuel Bartlett entertained a number of friends Sunday. Miss Minnie Boice spent Friday in Atlantic City. Henry Lee, of English Creek, who has been mate with Captain L. L. Lake for four years, is now commander of a vessel. We wish him success. Miss Hannie Price entertained Steelman Babcock, of Ocean City. Zibe Adams has returned home from Camden. Revival meetings commenced at Mt. Pleasant Sunday. They will be conducted by Rev. J. L. Watson. Harry Hackett has moved into Mr. Ervin's cottage on turnpike road. Richard Camp, of Atlantic City, is visiting Elwood Risley. PORT REPUBLIC. Fishing has been more profitable this winter than for many winters past. Samuel Higbee made a haul of forty bushels one day last week. John Sooy has also been very successful, and many others have made fishing profitable. Extra services were discontinued last week in consequences of the ill health of the pastor, Mr. Webb. John Channels, whom we all hoped would rally again, died on the 7th inst. and was buried last Thursday. Too much cannot be said of the consistent life of this good man. No one whom he knew but that loved him. No word of evil could attach to his name. A quiet, unobtrusive life that shed a charm about him, and unconsciously attracted and endeared all with whom he came in contact and with whom he had business of any kind. In his youth he married a widow with one child--Mrs. Allie Stewart--toward whom he ever exercised the kindest parental care, demonstrating the Golden Rule, if any man ever did. Through his paternal influence and guidance this stepson has become one of Atlantic City's successful business men. In after years his own children, two sons and daughters, who will miss him sadly, can testify to a father's kindest care; but what they and a sorrowing community lose, the bright angels gain. ATLANTIC CITY. John Reed will erect a two-story dwelling at Baltic and Connecticut

avenues.

William P. Stimwell will erect a handsome cottage on New Jersey avenue on

his return from Europe.

The deadlock in the Firemen's Convention was broken early Friday morning, and Charles Whippey, a wellknown hotel man, was elected Chief Engineer, and John L. Ohnels and William Calligan Assistant Engineers.

Over five hundred ballots were taken,

and the Convention might have gone on indefinitely had not a compromise been effected by the withdrawal of candidates Pettit and Ohnels for Chief, and the nomination of Mr. Whippey. A warrant was sworn out Friday for the arrest of Proprietors Frederick C. Mueller and William Hassett, of the Atlantic Journal, on the charge of criminal libel, Sergeant of Police Jesse R. Leeds being the complainant. Both men were taken into custody. The defendants are under indictment on a similar charge for libeling Police Officer Royal Robinson.

Real estate agents report that the demand for cottages and hotels has never been as lively as it is this winter. More have been leased during the past month than during the same period at any season in the resort's history.

Charles Tage and family narrowly escaped death by asphyxiation Sunday night at their home on Chalfonte avenue, and had it not been for the timely awakening of Mr. Tage the death of the entire family would probably now be chronicled. Mrs. Tage and her little daughter have not yet entirely recovered, but Dr. Joy reports that they are out of danger.

Freeholders' Meeting. The Cape May County Board of Freeholders met in January session last Thursday. In the absence of Director Weeks, who was detained on account of the washout on the Holly Beach railroad, Alexander Corson presided. The passing of bills occupied the morning session. The settling in the centre of the new Sheriff's residence compelled consideration. The floor joists were ordered to be strengthened by stringers and cross walls. The afternoon session was taken up trying to elect an almshouse keeper to succeed Ellis Mixner. There were four candidates--Frederick Crawford, $400; David Burch, $365; Richard S. Ludlam, $365; Alfred Haines, $300--and eight

ballots were cast without a selection.

The Board was compelled to adjourn until Saturday morning on this account, when, on the fourth ballot, Mr. Ludlam was elected.

The water supply for jail and sheriff's residence was ordered to be taken from Mr. Springer's plant, at an annual cost of $25.

Tried Their New Instruments.

Military Band, H. G. Steelman, leader, rejoice in the possession of a full complement of first-class instruments, the same having been recently purchased of a Philadelphia firm. The boys are proud of their new horns, and justly so; and Ocean City is proud of the organization, for it is doubtful if the State, outside our large cities, can produce a band that can show more proficiency in music, the length of time in which they have been in existence to be considered, than the W. A. Manahan Band. Saturday evening last they appeared upon our streets and treated out citizens to some of their excellent music. We are glad to know that our residents have manifested their appreciation of the band's efforts in a substantial manner. In [sic] is the intention of the band, we have been informed, to give free weekly concerts during the winter months.
