as snug and tight as possible in anticipa-
ton of the storm of wind and rain which

The best open air show of the season was
the one given In Railroad grove yesterday

| when off duty in fishing, farming and
gathering mushrooms. In the latter art
he is quite an adept. and is fully acquaint
ed with the various spots along the shore
where the best and most toothsome varie
| ties can be found. Captain Brewer is rapid
ly improving his property, which is already
one Of the most delightful between Savin

ment, which will soon be completed, is

mer house which he is having erected close
by the water edge on the lawn Immediately
In front of his house.

Surf house, has completed the repairs to
his barn, one side of which was carried
away by the recent severe storm. In max
ing the repairs q portion of the old shed,
on which numerous signs were painted,
has been used and the disconnected letters
give the side of the barn the appearance of
a Chinese laundry check, and creates
many demands for the Interpretation of the
mystery.
