A Record Breaking Run.

The fastest time ever made on any of the railroads in this State was that recorded Sunday morning when a special

train chartered by the Philadelphia Times made the run from Camden to

Atlantic City, over the Camden and Atlantic Railroad, in 45¾ minutes. The train consisted of one of the biggest locomotives on the road and a baggage car to carry the Sunday edition of the Times

to its readers at the shore.

The trip from Philadelphia was made in 51½ minutes, the boat leaving at 5.30 o'clock and the train arriving at Atlantic city at 21½ minutes past 6 o'clock. There was 5¾ minutes consumed in crossing the Delaware river and transferring the newspapers from the wagons to the baggage car. Then the recordbreaking trip was begun. At all cross tracks and roads flagmen had the road clear and not once during the entire journey was there any slacking of speed. The distance from that city to Atlantic

City is 58 7-10 miles.

All the officials on board had stop watches, and the quickest mile recorded

was made in 41 seconds.

The railroad company was represented by A. O. Dayton, the superintendent of the West Jersey Railroad Company, who personally looked after all the details of making a successful trip; Assistant Engineer J. H. Nichol, Supervisor D. F. Vaugn and Assistant Train Master E. Blaisdell, and W. K. McAllister, who was the foreman of the train.

The crew of the train consisted of the following well-known railroad men, to whom much of the credit was due of the rapid trip between the two cities: C. I. Justice was the conductor in charge, G. Alexander, brakeman. The locomotive was in charge of two engineers, Thomas Bodell and Walter Earl, assisted by Fireman T. Fitzgerald. Aside from the special feature of the train the trip has a great interest for the railroad officials. The exceptionally quick time demonstrates the rapid strides to which locomotion has advanced. Another feature which is forcibly demonstrated is the fact that the distance from river to ocean is made shorter for travelers, and at the same time more pleasant. The trip Sunday morning was a world beater in every respect and one which will become a regular feature over the road this sum-

mer.

The Black Will Case.

One of the most important and interesting will cases ever tried in this county was on trial last week before Supreme Court Judge Reed. The case is better known as the Black will case. On November 18th, 1892, James R. Black, the owner of a valuable piece of

property on the ocean front below Mississippi avenue, known as Ocean Hall,

died in Atlantic City after a rather lengthy illness. After his demise a will was produced, dated September 23, 1890, two years before his death, in which he left $1000 to one daughter, Mrs. Mary Alexander, and the remainder of his estate to his other daughter, Mrs. Adela B. Hayes. She was also his executrix. His three sons, James

R. Black, Jr., Robert Black and John H. Black, were cut off without a farthing. Mrs. Alexander refused to accept

the $1000 bequeathed her and with the three sons brought a suit to break the will, alleging that the deceased was mentally incapable of making a will and was also unduly influenced by Mrs. Hayes, who received the bulk of his estate. The case was tried last September, the will broken and a verdict for the plaintiffs. The defendants applied for a new trial, which Judge Reed granted. The contestants produced an expert medical testimony, several prominent Philadelphia physicians tending to show mental debility, and the defence produced a number of prominent business men of Philadelphia and Atlantic City to prove Mr. Black's ability to do business just prior to his death. It was shown by testimony that Mr. Black's possessions in Atlantic City was valued at $40,000, that he owned real estate valued at close to $5000 in Philadelphia and also had a good bank account. The jury Saturday sustained

the will.

ATLANTIC CITY.

While a fire was in progress in the

Italian quarter Thursday afternoon

Mrs. Palleaia Camponti rushed into her

blazing home to secure a sum of money that had been left in an up-stairs room. The flames prevented her return by the stairway, and she was compelled to leap from a second-story window. The prompt response of the Fire Department

prevented a serious conflagration. A firm known as Metzger & Co., and who give R. G. Dunn & Co. as their reference, have presented a bid to City Council offering to light the city for 20 cents a light per night. The city has been paying 40 and 45 cents a night for

its lights.

Becky Rowan, of South Atlantic City, was married in Camden Friday morning. Saturday night she was minus her husband. She reported his disappearance to Officer Edwards and asked his assistance in locating him. She said they came to Atlantic City on a late train. They became separated

in the crowd at the depot. He has not yet been found.

As Edward Morris, of Philadelphia, Saturday was trying to dispose of a watch stolen from a guest at a hotel where he was stopping, he was taken into custody by an officer. He was given a hearing and held for Court. D. S. White, Jr., manager of the Hotel Traymore Company, is now sole owner and proprietor. The deal was completed on Thursday and the papers were signed Friday in Philadelphia. The price paid is not made known. The Traymore Hotel Company came into existence in the middle of last August. It succeeded W. W. Green & Company. Health Inspector A. T. Glenn's annual report, presented to the Board of Health last Thursday night, is an excellent recommendation for this city as a health resort. There were but 317 deaths during the past year, of which 128 were non-residents. The marriages number 184 and the births 350. The city was never in better sanitary condition.

A Card of Thanks. MR. EDITOR: Be good enough to allow me space to publicly return thanks to my very good friend, F. D. Newberry, of Frankford, Philadelphia, for the very acceptable gift he has just made me of a beautifully carved and inlaid gavel suitably inscribed. I trust the order it is to demand may always be cheerfully accorded, and that it may prove to be more ornamental than necessary in the field of duty it is intended for. ROBERT FISHER.

To Build an Asylum.

The committee recently appointed by the Board of Freeholders to investigate the feasibility of building a county asylum met Saturday in the office of County Collector Allen B. Endicott. The committee consists of Joseph H. Burton, M. L. Jackson, John T. Irvin, John Bowen, B. F. Souder, Stewart

Shinn and Henry Dinklespell.

It was concluded that it would prove a paying investment from the beginning to erect the asylum. The committee was favorable to placing the proposed building on the county property adjoining the almshouse, near Pleasantville, under the charge of the almshouse steward. At present Atlantic county is paying the State $6000 a year for the maintenance of thirty-four insane charges. To build an asylum it was estimated will cost $20,000. The State, upon its completion, would contribute toward its support. It allows $2 per week for each inmate. This would mean $3500 from the State to aid in keeping the thirty-four charges. By careful calculation it was believed that $3000 could be saved annually through the building of the asylum. A resolution was drawn up, recommending to the County Board of Freeholders the speedy erection of the same.

Atlantic City Notes.

The hotel men who are behind the project of building Longport Boulevard were given cause for rejoicing Saturday when Judge Joseph Thompson, of this county, appointed a board of six surveyors to map out the route the boulevard is to follow. The road is nearly two-thirds built, but owing to a question raised by the County Board of Freeholders a hitch stopped the work in one section, the surveyors have been appointed to clear away the legal technicality. It is very likely that the owners of private teams may enjoy a speedway following the coast for seven

mile, this summer.

Another matter which will be of interest to patrons of the resort is the action of City Council in ordering the construction of raised platforms along the beach for the use of the city lifeguards, upon which to place rescued persons. This will do away with the danger to half-drowned bathers of being suffocated by the crowds which always gather when accidents occur. The lifeboats will also be placed on wagons, the same as those used by the Government Station, which will enable the boats to be floated with greater facility, and give increased efficiency to the munici-

pal life-guard service.

Thursday many of the visitors journeyed to the Inlet to witness the first yacht race of the season. It was given by the Corinthian fleet, and was over a ten-mile course. It was sailed in such a manner that the boats were in sight throughout the race. There were fifteen yachts entered. What gave the race an exciting feature was the stiffness of the breeze. It blew at a pace that made the yachts reef their sails and the commanders kept on the alert to avoid capsizing, which mishap did occur to no less than three. The race was won by Sumner Reed; with Georgie, Captain George Gale, second, and the Ivie, handled by Eugene McGuire, third. The Corinthian Fleet has extended an invitation to the Philadelphia Yacht Club to join in several races they have under way to be sailed this spring, and in which the four yacht clubs are taking an active interest in promoting. They will be on the scale of regattas, and if all intentions are carried out, will be events of interest to the outside yachting world.
