ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH:
ATLANTIC CITY, August 3.-As the heat
intensifes in the cities throughout the
country the crowd increases in Atlantic
City, where the warmest days are welcomed
by everybody. The warmer the weather the
better the bathing. Fully 10, 900 people are
tossed abo ut in happy confusion among the
breakers every day, and out of this number
fully 1000 are from Pittsburg and Allie
gheny. The month of August has always
been recognized as the month of vacations
among the business men and their
employees in Pittsburg, and this year
E. ID. Smith, the passenger agent
said that the hundreds who came to Atlantic
City on the train were less than half OF
those who left Pittsburg, many of them
going further East and some stopping in Phila-
delphia. The party is quartered at the differ
ent hotels and will remain about two weeks.
ments in Atlantic City this year. Those of last
year are doubled. For mile along the grand
board walk promenade attractions of every de-
scrlpuon abound on either side.
q AS the season progresses fads are becoming
more and more fashionable. The young lady
who does not carry shovel in the morning is
not looked upon with much favor by those who
make and remake the styles at the seashore
From o'clock till l:3O the handsomest girls in
the country, who make their summer home
here, can be seen promenading the principal
avenues and promenades of the city with small
shovels mounted on their shoulders a la rail-
road style. 1t Is not thing OF beauty nor
Joy forever, but 1t is stylish and they must
carry them. These shovels are maGe of black
painted sheet iron about four inches square,
with three or four foot hickory handle at
Iached. They are used on the beach by these
bellies digging holes in the sand IN which they
bury themselves up to the knees and sit for
hours in the blazing sun flirting with some
PittsburC or Philadelphia dude who wears
sash, smokes cigarettes and says saucy words.
The latest fad among the Anglo-maniacs is the
English smoke" II consists of a sweet briar
or meerschaum pipe of the most hideous shape,
attached to a long stem and filed with cigarette
dust OF coffee grounds, which the dudes swing
from between their eXpressionless lips as they
stroll up and down the beach, initiating, in
their mind-for some of them have a chemical
trace of brains-the noblemen of England
CHILDREN'S DANCING EXHIBITIONS
are the most fashionable social affairs of the
evening here this year, and many of them are
marvels of beauty On Wednesday evening
about 60 of the best dancers among the chill
dren of Pittsburg and Phiiadelphia gave an ex-
hibition of their accomplishments as graceful
dancers before 1900 people at the Mansion
House pavilion. The affair was directed by
Prof. Charles c. Martel and Prof Constantine
Carpenter, and eclipsed anything of its kind
ever seen here.
Aside from this, the big hops, which are given
nightly on this grand pavilion, seem to be
owned and virtually run by the Pittsburg con-
tngent in Atlantic City. One never feels
lonely here. AT the hops in the parlors, on
the veranda or in the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
and spacious dining halls of the Mansion, Nc
Glade's Pittsburg friends are to be seen, always
enjoying themselves.
The arrivals of this week include many prom
inept and hundreds of less prominent people
from Allegheny county. Although the young
men who are here are generally the handsomest
going. they are considerably in the minority.
