Bonding No Go.

The legal voters of Ocean City displayed unusual apathy last Thursday when the question of bonding the town in the sum of $10,000 for the purpose of building a city hall was before them for final disposition. For some time previous to its settlement the matter had received more consideration than it did when ballots were more effective than words. The question, in its different aspects, had been thoroughly canvassed for months previous, the pros and cons being advanced by its supporters with a glibeness [sic] born of a careful study of the subject. When

the polls closed and the result announced--95 against to 54 for--there was consternation in the camp of the supporters, for its defeat was so complete as to dispel all doubts as to the sentiment of our citizens.

A Republican Victory.

Veni, vidi, vici. The result of Tuesday's election anchors Ocean City firmly in the Republican column, for with a single exception the Republican candidates were chosen by majorities that admitted of no question: Out of the 170 votes polled they cast 121. This year party lines were more closely drawn than at previous elections, the Democrats and Prohibitionists, as is their wont, uniting under the name of Citizens party while the Republicans chose only such candidates as were known to be staunch supporters of the principles enunciated by that organization. The men selected are among our most progressive citizens, and as the entire city government is now under Republican domination we can look forward to united action upon the part of those who are in official position.

Appended is the result.

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

SMITH'S LANDING. The funeral of Mrs. Sarah F. Disbrow, wife of Nathaniel Disbrow, took place Saturday morning from her late residence. Funeral services were conducted in Salem M. E. church by Rev. C. K. Flemming. The attendance was quite large. BAKERSVILLE. Miss Emma Reed, of Absecon, has been visiting friends in our village. Mrs. Anna Price, who has been very

sick from an attack of grip, is slowly improving.

The funeral of Paulina English took place on Saturday morning amid the violent storm. The occasion was doubly sad. Her aged mother, who has been an invalid for months, and a sister liv-

ing near by, who is very ill, were unable to be present to witness the last sad rites. The long and intense sufferings

of Miss English won the sympathies of a large circle of friends. EGG HARBOR CITY. Shortly after midnight Thursday Mrs. Schuelman, an aged lady living by herself on St. Louis avenue, was nearly murdered by two tramps who entered her dwelling by breaking through the window. They grabbed her by the throat, and asked for money. When she replied she had none, they beat her insensible. Her loud screams awakened the nearby neighbors, but before any help was summoned the tramps had fled. Marshal Senft together with a number of citizens are searching for the men, but up to the present time no trace has been found. The local election will be held on the 26th inst. The citizens' caucus has nominated the following ticket: Assessor, Geo. F. Breder; City Council, Robert Weiler, William Mall and Henry Otto, Sr.; School Superintendent, John Schuster; School Trustee, Dr. J. N. Elmer; City Marshal, George W. Senft and William Stroetman; Overseer of Poor, August Bocker.

ABSECON.

E. church, this place, Sunday last. Presiding Elder Harris, preached in the evening. The Stewards' financial accounts have all been squared up for

the year.

Miss Jemima Smith is quite ill. Will Cordery has built a front porch to his cottage. Mrs. Clark returned home on Friday from a lengthy visit to her son, A. E. Clark, Trenton. Mr. Crook has taken possession of the property he recently purchased from Mr. Biddle. The "Deestrick Skule," the name of the play given in Walters' Hall Saturday night by Miss Ward, principal of our public school, and others, was well patronized. Proceeds for the benefit of the public school. MAY'S LANDING. Already the name of Lawyer Joseph E. P. Abbott, of this place, has been spoken of by Atlantic county lawyers in connection with the judgeship under the new Judiciary bill. The petit jurors for the April term of Court were drawn on Tuesday. The Board of Freeholders held a session here yesterday. Mrs. George Cramer is lying seriously ill at her home here. Rev. John Dunlap, of Bankok, Siam, occupied the pulpit at the Presbyterian church on Sunday morning. Miss Jennie Roath is suffering from a lacerated wound of the left wrist, sustained by being caught in a loom at the cotton mill. William Turp, aged 59 years, died on Friday from typhoid pneumonia. The funeral services were held on Monday in the M. E. church. Rev. J. H. Boyd officiated. Atlantic Lodge, No. 50, I. O. O. F., of which deceased was a member, attended the services in a body. The Hope Fire Company, with about thirty active members, has organized by the election of the following officers: President, A. J. Foulds; secretary and treasurer, Joseph L. Veal; fire marshal, John S. Risley; assistant, John Wagner. PORT REPUBLIC. The big sale at E. D. French's, which took place last Thursday, was attended by many people for miles around. The sale continued Monday. Mr. French returned from Philadelphia last Saturday evening quite ill, but is now better. Messrs. Brown and Bartlett have erected a new sawmill on the site of the old one, where they expect to do a flourishing business. Mrs. Dr. Lake visited her mother and father last Sunday. Her son Victor accompanied her. The new stage driver seems to be giving satisfaction. The traveling season will soon commence, which will try his patience and good nature. We hear he will employ a sort of tackle to handle the "Saratoga." Captain W. L. Blake is at home for a

few days.

The bright and happy faces that made their appearance in Port from Chestnut Neck, last week, told the tale before spoken of the safety of Captain Charley

Blake.

We were glad to see Miss Marette Frambes' familiar face last Sunday.

She is now at home for a week prepara-

tory to filling a position as bookkeeper at Ware's rubber-goods house on Arch street, Philadelphia. Success to her. She says if pluck and perseverance will accomplish anything, then she will secure success, as bookkeeping is her forte.

It will be a wise thing for the person who look the umbrella from the postoffice last week to return it it before she is publicly exposed. Please take it some dark night and place it on Mr. Webb's porch. He does not keep a dog, neither does he wish to make a public exposure. Should he be compelled, from circumstances, to do so, there might be one less in attendance at the class meeting. We do not wish

to add thievishness to the list of sins which are winked at within the sanctuary, but which need rooting out, root and branch.

Miss Farley leaves to-day and Samuel English takes her place in our primary school.

PLEASANTVILLE.

A surprise party was given to Miss Edna Risley on Wednesday evening, March 6th, at the residence of her sister, Mrs. Preston Adams. The time passed pleasantly with music and games. Refreshments were served at 12 o'clock, after which the party dispersed. Those present were Edna Risley, Carrie Alten, Bertha Ireland, Etta Blake, Gussie

Sooy, Katie Price, M. Risley, Clara

Garrison, Jennie Ingersoll, Stella Sooy, Alice Horton, Dora Morris, Ida Risley, Blanche Wishman, Mattie Risley, Gertie Risley, Arthur Ryon, Clinton Risley, Archie Willis, William Risley, Steelman Lee, Dorie Hackett, Logan McConnell, Harry Campbell, Mark Eritz, Charley Loper, Clarence Nickerson and Will Rose.

Henry Lake spent part of this week in Philadelphia. Mrs. Samuel Bartlett entertained Isaac Adams' family on Sunday. Mr. English and Mr. Myers were in town on Sunday. ATLANTIC CITY. The plans of a number of prominent citizens who were under the impression that the city could pave the streets and pay for the same by issuing bonds, and who were about to petition City Council to have the work begun immediately, have been knocked in the head by a decision from City Solicitor Endicott that there is no law under which the city can act. He is further of the opinion that the only way in which the work can be done is by direct taxation. This plan does not meet with general

approval.

A New York fertilizer company is in correspondence with the local Board of Health over an offer of the company to destroy the city's garbage without expense in the municipality. The company is in possession of a patent process which enables it to make a profit by converting the garbage into fertilizer, and is willing to negotiate a contract with the city for cremating the refuse. It is stated that if the city objects to the company using the city's crematory it will erect one. The company is now building a plant at Syracurse, N. Y. The matter came before City Council at its Monday night meet-

ing.

William R. Smith, of this city, has instituted suit against Ocean Castle, K. G. E., of which he is a member, to collect sick benefits. Smith was taken ill in the latter part of last June, and the lodge paid him benefits at the rate of $5 a week until the latter part of October, when the payments were discontinued. At a district school meeting Saturday night power was given to the Board of Education to build a new school house. The schools have been crowded to overflowing, and to accommodate the pupils school annexes have been opened in rented rooms. The new school house to be erected will be located at the corner of Illinois and Arctic avenues, and will cost $30,000. The enrollment of pupils in the public schools has increased from 1400 in 1891 to 2018 in 1895. South Atlantic City contains a voting population of 21 and has 17 municipal offices to fill. There are several of the voters who decline to accept office and consequently some of the residents have to serve their fellow citizens in several official capacities. At a meeting of the Yachtsmen's Association it was decided to enlarge the yacht wharf at the Inlet and otherwise improve the landing. Levi Hewitt, a produce merchant, this city, recently became religiously inclined and joined a church. Sunday he appeared on the turnpike bridge, and, after delivering himself of a harangue upon how wicked he was, mounted the railing and was in the act of jumping into the water when a girl by the name of Ray Johnson pluckily seized him and struggled until assistance came. He was taken to his house, 2009 Arctic avenue. The attention of the police has been directed to Samuel Smith on account of his eccentric conduct. Smith came here about two weeks ago. He is well dressed, about 40 years old and apparently has plenty of money. He says he is a Baltimore business man. He has been selling his jewelry for ridiculously small sums and has endeavored to sell his clothing and other personal effects. Sunday, Smith offered a telegraph messenger his handsome gold watch for fifty cents, but the bargain was declined. The police are collecting the valuables he has sold and are trying to locate his relatives. The United States dynamite cruiser Vesuvius, passing this city on her way up the coast Sunday, attracted considerable attention from the crowds on the promenade. She was steaming along at a rapid rate. The one year old son of Watson and Mamie Hackney was found dead in his coach Sunday morning. County Physician Souder pronounced the cause of death to be internal spasm. James Reed, the 14-year-old son of James Reed, of Arctic and Florida avenues, was badly bitten about the legs and hands by a vicious dog Sunday afternoon.

TO THE REPUBLICAN AND INDEPENDENT VOTERS OF OCEAN CITY.

Be it known that a permanent organization known as the Ocean City Republican Club, with headquarters in Howell's Hall, has been established for the promulgation of Republican principles and the solidifying of the Republican strength at the ballot box at every election to be held in Ocean City. With the evidence before us of a large Republican majority at each election, we fail to see any benefits arising therefrom to the party either in municipal or county affairs so far as we are concerned, and in order to sustain our just claims to recognition in the representation of our town we have formed this organization. We desire to have the co-operation and assistance of all loyal Republicans and any others who may deem it wisdom to join our ranks, where the cardinal prin-

ciple is that the majority shall rule and no boss dictation.

Application may be made to the Secretary or any member for membership. To suit the opportunities of all applicants we have three degrees of member-ship--Active, Honorary and Contributive --the relations of which will be cheerfully explained to all who propose to join. By order of the Club, I. S. CHAMPION, Secretary. Fall stock of Wall Paper now in. All of the latest designs. Over one hundred different patterns. Popular prices. B. R. Smith & Sons, 1046 As-

bury avenue.
