ATLANTIC CITY, August 10-Seven hundred
more Pittsbufgers arrived here from Pittsburg
yesterday afternoon. The influx of sojourners
is so great that notwithstanding the great
numbers whv are leaving for home daily, the
| hotels and cottages are packed and there Is
| little room for more.
The inspiration one receives from sitting for
an hour on the beach during bathing hours is
peculiar. The scenes are varied. often pleas
ant, often unpleasant to the eye. Now they
are beautifully picturesque and again they are
dead and uninteresting Every one who dons
bathing costume, be he man or woman,
goes into the surf, only after promenading and
posing along the beach to attract attention and
arouse admiration.
No money is spared by those who come here
TO make themselves the most attractive on the
costumes car be seen every morning covering
the figures of women who depend entirely on
art for the beauty of their appearance, while
the real beauties who visit the seashore are the
most modestly attired of all. The bathing this
week is a great Improvement over that OF last
week, and the bathing houses have not half
enough costumes to supply the thousands who
daily seek robes with which to enter the surf.
The attractions Of the week.included PANS
