kept many in the city, the dread OF a
noisy Fourth sent a large number OF
well known people away hastily to either
seaside or mountain. The hotels and
boarding houses are filing up and the
cottages now begin to show signs CT

from from Asbury Park to Pleasure Bay
will soon be accomplished. and there will
undoubtedly be a bicycle path also. The
road to Shark river from Asbury Park
and also from Brielle is good and very
popular. At the Brielle end of the road
are Miss Louise ;ald Miss Jessie Perry,
two graceful and competent bicycle rid
ers. With these young ladies the wheel
