Costumes W orn In the Surf-
The KING Of the Dndes.

Long Branch special: Everyone at the
Branch suffered greatly from the heat DUR
ing the last few days and consequently bath
ing has been the ~tavorite pastime. The
latest thing in the way of bathing hats dis
played is a fne, wide-brimmed Panama EN-
broidered OH one side in a cluster of three
large sunfowsrs. A young man attracted a
great deal Of attention by making his zp-
pearapce on the beach in q light-blue jersey
made with knee-breeches, and waist cut
square at the neck and filled in with white.
This gentleman spent most Of the bathing
hours promenading up and dow the sands,
seldom going very near the water. 1t was
generally supposed that he was afraid con-
tact with it would injure the brilliant color
ing of his gay attire.
Rather an amusing little accident occurred
In the surf the other day. A young lady,
very proud OF her accomplishments a. .
swimmer, was disportiug herself out beyond
the ropes, when she called to a friend nearer

of her cries, on carrying her ashore, where hs

in the channel directly in the way Of the
