The UnponuIar Heir.

LONDON, June 17.-The popular cru
sade against the Prince of Wales shows
no signs of abating in strength or bitter
ness. After lecture delivered at Car
narvon, Wales, by Mr.. Henry NJ. Stan
ley, the band played, "God Bless the
Prince of Wales" The Welshmen no
sooner heard the first strains Of the
familiar air than they raised storm of
misses, which almost drowned the noise
of the band. AT seven religious meet
ings held In various parts of the country
the Prince Of Wales was roundly de-
nounccd for the share he took in the
bnccarat scandal. AT the Methodist con-
ference, now being held at Leeds, the
visit to Tranby Croft was classed as a
gamblers orgie.

flames spread rapidly. In remarkably
short time whole blocks of buildings on
River street were burning. There is
but small fire department in the town,
and help was telegraphed for from
Long Branch and Asbury Park. By the
time this assistance arrived large por-
tion of the southern part of Seabright
was in flames. Women and children
ran through tho streets crying and
wringing their hands in frantic man
ner, while the men aided the firenen in
attempting to check the flames. The
flames at this time made such rapid
headway that in many instances the in
mates of buildings barely had time to
escape with their lives.
The section burned over extends from
the Shrewsbury river to the ocean and
to the point where the Jersey Southern
railroad crosses Ocean avenue. Among
the buildings burned were the postoffice,
the Seabright and Poppenger's hotels,
the Methodist church, the school house
and the buildings occupied by the New
Jersey Telephone company and the Ell
beron Steamboat company. Part Of the
Octagon hotel was burned. Many resi-
dences were burned and the portion in
which the fishermen dwell suffered Sc
verely Many of these hardy people lost
their all and are homeless and penniless.
Many of the wealthy cottagers and the
hotels which escaped destruction have
! thrown open their houses to the sufferers.
