The interest Of the wheelmen in the

This ought not to be. Every member

Met With a Misadventure In
Search of Art.
Special to the JERSEY City Netus.
CAPE MAY, July 90, 1S92.-"Little Will
lie, the kodak fiend." landed in a pot of
trouble yesterday through too promis-
cuous desire to secure a lasting impress
sion Of many pretty sights in view. All
during bathing hour he wandered about
the crowd gathered on the beach at the
Congress bathing grounds. He would
take q snap here and another one there.
This tempting bit or that pretty shape
would be gathered with a view of gloat-
ing over it some time in the future.
At last Willie came to grief. Upon one
particular young woman he had his eye
for several days waiting anXiously for
h time when she would venture in the
surf. Yesterday he was overjoyed to
catch sight of her on the beach. This
was his chance and he made all prepara-
tions to take advantage of it. However,
he failed to notice the particularly stall
wart escort. Willie had eyes only tor the
young woman while he escort was keenlv
watching Willie. The ~latter's face told
of his JOY, he was brimful Of smiles; he
had a focus on the object Of his admira-
ton. Then Il change came over the spirit
of his dreams. Thers was a snap, but it
was not like the ominous click of The
kodak, 1t was more in the nature of a
rattle. The stalWdrt escort had slipped
up unseen and ms right duke landed on
Willie's Jaw bone. No arrests were made
and, for the time being at lie ) Willie is
not in the Photographic business.
