Ill OF the goings on of Mrs. Langtry and
Freddie Gebhard, their last esc3n,de at
Long Branch has broken the camers

have been before, they were ! ea.t

concern the public. But when I,dy

a private car, and remains there instead
of going to hotel, takes her meals there
IN the company of a gentleman not ber

dinner in the evening until yer un.

public scandal. Why, the very women

for S. 900 in the cup The loss Of this
broke his heart. He was always known
for his misery love of money Though
possessed of an income of between $780,
900 and $4,000 year, he would hes
itate a long time before spending pen
ny. The elements Of Dutch thrift are
very strongly developed in him.
But after all he shares this feeling Of
economy with many other rich young
men Young Astor particularly was
noted for this. He kept little memoir
andum book in which he recorded every
cent of his expenditures. One day while
he was in the Assembly the little book
fell out Of his pocket A brother leg
islaior found it, and glancug over it
found such entries as "one apple . its"
car far. 5 CENTS" zone evening paper
3 CENTS" church, 5cents;" and other
similar evidences Of how the young man
took care of his pennies.
The blue fishing season this year is
unrivalled. For some reason or other,
the fish this year are more plentiful, are
better in quality and bite more freely
than they have for years. Asa result
parties going out along Sandy Hook have
excellent sport, and the price asked for
this esculent fish in the markets are also
very low. In fact this is about the only
finely favored fish at present which is
not too great luxury to eat.
