Hurt In a Runaway. H. D. Canfield, of The Illinois, and his son Harry received injuries in a runaway on Fifth street, Monday.

They were driving west, between Central and Asbury avenues, when the

horse suddenly became restive. The

burlap-covering, intended to protect the animal from annoyance by flies, mosquitoes and the like, had evidently tantalized it and some high-kicking rearward was the result. During one of these fits of bad temper the horse kicked Mr. Canfield and Harry, who were sitting on the wagon seat, inflicting an incised wound on the former's left leg below the knee, and spraining Harry's ankle. Mr. Canfield fell backwards into the wagon, but Harry held on to the reins despite the desperate efforts of the horse to break away wildly. Finally Harry, too, was unseated, fortunately dropping back into the wagon, still holding the reins, and the sudden check caused thereby brought the much-excited horse to a stand. When the men subsequently reached The Illinois, Dr. Pryor was sent for. The doctor dressed the injuries and made the men as comfortable as possible.

Harry O'Neill, one of the prominent Odd Fellows of Pennsylvania and who was chairman of the building committee of the Odd Fellows' Temple on Broad street, Philadelphia, was an interested visitor in Ocean City recently. This (Thursday) night a fair will be held in Brower's pavilion on the boardwalk for the benefit of the Free Reading Room of the W. C. T. U. There will be on hand a plentiful supply of real lemonade, home-made candy and cake, and souvenirs. H. H. Bodine, the well-known real estate man, said to THE SENTINEL man this morning: "The cottages are nearly all rented. I don't think there is more than half a dozen that are rentable. We are selling a few lots now and again; they are moving off moderately." The musical part of the services of the Episcopal church is in charge of M. M. Reese, of Riverton, N. J. The members of the choire [sic] are Miss Reese and Miss Murphy, of Riverton, and the Misses Ibert, of Philadelphia. The rehearsals are held at the public school house on Saturday, 4.30 p. m. Anyone musically inclined and willing to assist will be cordially welcomed. The music is exceptionally well rendered and the minister in charge and the congregation are greatly indebted to the choir.

Child Drowned. Edwin Hayes, the 4-year-old son of Nathan and Amanda Hayes, of Asbury avenue, below Eighth street, was drowned on Tuesday by falling off the Seventh street wharf into the bay. The body was found floating face upward by a party in the yacht "Elma," and every effort to produce resuscitation was tried for over two hours. But it was in vain. Exactly how he got in the water is yet a mystery and there were no marks or bruises on the body. Mr. and Mrs. Hayes are grief stricken and the community in which they resided for several years sympathizes with them in their bereavement. Nathan Hayes is the captain of Dr. G. E. Palen's yacht "Halcyon" and is well known among seafaring men along the coast.

A Terrible Accident. Atlantic City's gayety was cruelly interrupted Wednesday night last by a terrible accident at the Casino, through which nearly forty persons were injured, some of them, it is feared, fatally. The Grand Lodge of Elks were bringing their very successful convention to a fitting and brilliant termination with a social session at the Casino building. The order of Elks is famous for their delightful gatherings, and consequently everybody who was anybody, or who loved the highest kind of enjoyment, sought to get into the Casino. By 9 o'clock it is said that upwards of 1200 persons were assembled within the walls of the structure, which in times past had proved an unsuccessful venture, has been untenanted for two years, and was totally unfit for such a gathering, as the catastrophe which followed too forcibly illustrated. After the close of a fine concert by the bands of the visiting lodge, arrangements were begun for the social session which of course was to include dancing. The crowd was a merry one, bubbling over it seemed with pleasure and delight. There were, however, among them a few sober-minded, wary people who noticed the immense gathering with apprehension for its safety, for they had detected some vibration in the floor. Fearing to cause a panic they quietly retired and began to discuss with prominent brother Elks the advisability of bringing the affair to a close, when the crash came. A portion of the second floor, some 30 feet square, located about the middle of the pavilion and near the railing on the boardwalk side, fell hurling one hundred people into the ruins. The electric lights went out making confusion worse confounded and adding to the terror of the situation which few could then fully realize. When the first feeling of panic had subsided, the rescue of the injured was zealously undertaken, and many a daring, heroic deed was done in the face of the danger that remainder of the pavilion would tumble down and bury the rescuers also. Firemen and ambulances and physicians responded promptly to the alarms sent out, and aided powerfully in the work of rescue and in attending to the sufferings of the injured persons. The news of the accident spread like wild-fire throughout the city, and the greatest excitement prevailed everywhere, as the full extent of the disaster was not known for some hours later.

Some very extravagant stories were in circulation regarding the number injured. These arose chiefly from the fact that many women fainted and had to be conveyed to their homes in carriages and omnibuses.

The majority of the injured came from Camden, while some were from New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore. Only two residents of Atlantic City, so far as is known at this writing, have been injured. They are: Mrs. M. Mendell, wife of Moses Mendell, the clothier, badly bruised. Major Wolf, light-house keeper, leg fractured.

The Borough Fathers Meet. The Borough Council held a meeting Friday evening, and at the conclusion it adjourned to meet on the 26th inst. Mayor Fisher presided, and a good deal of business was transacted. The delinquency of the garbage contractor was mentioned by the Mayor, who said that he had received numerous complaints from householders of the non-removal of their household refuse, often for days at a time, which, during this hot weather, caused much discomfort.

The disregard of sanitary regulations

was also discused [sic], and resulted in the Mayor's being requested to intruct [sic] the

marshal and his aid to warn violators that they would be summoned before the Mayor.

The clerk was instructed to communicate with the garbage contractor, urging him to a more faithful performance of his contract.

Council decided that the ordinance governing the use of bicycles on the streets and avenues, by day and night, should be enforced, and that unmuzzled and stray dogs should be snatched up and put to "the torture," for which latter purpose the question of constructing a suitable pound without delay was referred to a committee with power to act. The "volatility" of the electric lights, which afford only dissolving views of the sidewalks to the nightly wayfarer--with exasperating intervals between--was spoken of, and the Mayor seemed somewhat sad when he exclaimed: "But what can we do?" Result--a gentle remonstrance to Messrs., the Gentlemen of the Electric Light Co., imploring them to condescend, &c., &c.

Board of Health Meeting. The Board of Health met in the Association Building last Wednesday evening. The members present were: Dr. Waggoner, president; J. Conver, E. B. English and William Lake. G. O. Adams was absent. Several complaints were received about the buildings on the Salter property on Seventh street, between Wesley and Ocean avenues. The Board decided, however, that inasmuch as the nuisances recently reported had been abated, they had no jurisdiction. Dr. Waggoner said that the complaints really covered violations of the building laws, and properly belonged to the Mayor and Council for correction.

The irregular removal of house refuse and garbage was the subject of several complaints. The president declared that the delinquency of the contractor was the most annoying thing the

Board had to deal with; but they were

powerless in the matter unless where complainants allege sickness or suffering from the rotting garbage not removed by the contractor, and then the contractor could be proceeded against for creating a nuisance. The Council made a contract with Charles Miller for that work, and should see that he per-

forms it.

STEELMANVILLE.

The funeral of Mrs. Harriett Ingersoll took place on Sunday, July 7; ser-

vices and interment at Asbury M. E. church. Rev. N. W. Wickward, pastor

of the church, preached the funeral

sermon, assisted by Rev. J. I. Corson and Rev. Joseph Austerberry, of the

M. P. church. Deceased had been a member of Asbury church for a number of years. Death was caused by cancer. She was a very patient sufferer. Her end was sudden and unexpected, and it was a great shock to the family. The funeral was largely attended both by relatives and friends.

Mrs. Anna Hood and son Frank, of Philadelphia, are the guests of Captain Henry Steelman. They will remain about two weeks. Mrs. Mark Booye and daughter Mattie, of Atlantic City, are domiciled with Anna Babcock, of this place, where they will remain for the next

three months, Captain Booye having rented his cottage in the above city for that length of time.

Mrs. Margaret Dixon returned home on Saturday night from Atlantic City, where she has been visiting her children and other relatives. The farmers in this vicinity have been quite busy for a week harvesting their peas for the Atlantic City market.

Twenty-eighth Anniversary. Mr. and Mrs. S. P. Garwood celebrated on Thursday night the twenty-eighth anniversary of their wedding, in their cottage at No. 418 Wesley avenue. Numerous guests and neighbors filled the parlors anxious to testify their esteem for Mr. and Mrs. Garwood, to congratulate them upon their happy voyage through life and to wish them many happy returns of the day. Among those present were: William

Lancaster, Mrs. Lancaster and four children, of Philadelphia; Frank Davis

and sister, Wayne, Pa.; Kenton Waron, Mrs. Waron and family, Mrs. J. Taylor, Miss Mell Holton, Joseph W. Parker and family, Gregory Gibb and family, of Philadelphia; Mrs. Lippincott and son, of Atlantic City; Frank B. Matthews and wife, J. C. Cross, Miss Agnes Gilbert, W. T. Brown, William Bailey, of Philadelphia; and Miss Martha Madara, Millville; Mr. and A. F. Ervin, of Wesley avenue below Sixth street; Fred. Irelan and Walter

Hoyt, of Linwood, N. J.

Mr. and Mrs. Garwood have been residents of Ocean City since its foundation fifteen years ago; and have grown up with the country, as Horace

Greeley used to say.

Instrumental and vocal music contributed to the evening's enjoyment.

A Runaway Horse. Dr. T. C. Hutchinson recently purchased a horse to enable him the better to get around among his patients, far and near. The doctor was proud of his acquisition, and in his few leisure moments loved to discant upon the animal's beauty, docility, good-breeding, and perfect training. The doctor's high opinion, however, received a shock Friday forenoon, when said equine, which he had left peacefully standing in front of a patient's cottage on West avenue, near Eleventh street, took French leave and scampered north on Asbury avenue. The clatter of hoofs rapidly careering along drew people from the stores, who felt some alarm for the safety of pedestrians on the street crossings and of the numerous vehicles on the avenue. But the horse, with ever-increasing speed, went on, turning in and out with precision, as obstacles presented themselves, and never stopped until Frank Evans courage ously laid hands on the bridle, when they had reached the Point of Beach. Not a "string" of the harness was broken, nor the carriage injured in the least; and the horse seemed none the worse for his unexpected escapade. It is said that a passing train had

scared him.

Rescued from Drowning. An accident occurred at Twelfth street wharf--on the Inlet--Friday

afternoon, which fortunately resulted in nothing more serious or disagreeable than a thorough wetting. One of a party of young ladies returning from a boating excursion, fell into the water while getting out of a boat. E. H. Esber, of 1620 Asbury avenue, happened

to be close by and gallantly rushed to the rescue, which he effected. Several

dripping garments adorned the clothes' line of a not-distant cottage later on.

The Birth of a New Day. A sunrise at the seashore is one of the rare sights that is overlooked by the many visitors at this time of year. Wednesday morning it was particularly beautiful. About half-past 4 the upper edge of old Sol made its appearance above the horizon, deep blood-red in color. A few moments later and he was entirely clear, standing out in bold relief against a darkened sky, an immense sphere. Still later and the blood-red ball had changed to one of gorgeous brightness, with a face like a polished brazen mirror. Presently it slowly slid behind a long, dark cloud, and here and there shot forth shafts of golden light and beauty through the rifts of the wind-riven veil before it; and finally it stood out against the azure background in all its magnificence and glory, the conqueror of night, the king of day. Slothful sleeper! Arise and behold the birth of a new day! The everyday sights of town and country are commonplace; but a sight like this once witnessed is never forgotten.

Should Be Locked Up.

There are a number of young ruffians who frequent the lonesome parts of the boardwalk at night, whom the police should give attention to. A respectable young lady visitor accidentally got into the company of one of them not long since, and it is due to her abhorrence of notoriety that he is not now in prison charged with a serious offence. Both he and his scampish scum are well

known and will be looked after.
