AsBuRY PARK. July 18.-Jamss r. Bradley,

worried over the negro servant question. Since
the opening OF the present season cottaeers
and hotel guests have been making complaints
on the subject. Owing to the poor season
there are many colored men and women here
who are unable to secure employment either
in the hotels or cottages

Tho complaints from the people who object
to the negroes have been loud and frequent
for over month. .,
The negroes have insisted upon occupying
the benches In Mr.. Bradleys pavilion at the
foot OF Asbury avenue. which he had reserved
expressly for the use OF the beach band. Last
nieht Mr.. Bradley sent down to the pavilion
small whites painted board. on which were
these words In bold. black letters:

This sign was nailed up in q conspicuous
place on the front Of the pavilion. but II did
not keep the army OF colored walters. laun.

About 3 o'clock every seat on the plaza adioin-
ing the Asbury avenue pavilion had one or
