Often It is asked how. the resorts alone the shore can set water not made salt by the ocean. The answer la that these wells are driven through rock many feet ihlek and this i rock slopes towsrd the ocean from many miles inland. It was st one time thought It extended into Peon- | sylranla. but there Is some donbt of ' this now. Some years ago. when an artesian , well was sunk at Corson's Inlet, after : the drill had gone through forty feet ' 1 of rock, there was pumped up a piece of cedar wood very much like the j wood found under the great cedar 1 , awamp. This was displayed In the ' ] office of Massev A Edwards, at Ocean I City. Speaking of Corson's Inlet, the post- - office Is called Strathmere and there j' have been attempts to have every one | 1 call the town by that name, but it is ' still Corson's Inlet to most persons ( and will never be anything else. The 1 railroad companies realize that, and < on their timetables they print both Corson'sMnlet and Strathmere. Some ' day there will be a change in the j name of the postofflce and the place ( will thereafter be known as Corson's , inlet. t a x VICTIM OF PNEUMONIA. 1 Wat Employed By Reading In At- c lantle City.
