PORT RERURLIC.

A great excitement prevailed here on
Saturday afternoon. People were star
tied about O'Clock by a loud report
jarring windows and doors. Men. women
and children rushed toward the new
lumber mill, which could not be seen for
clouds of steam. Arriving there they
found the building complete wreck, and
the engine in fragments, lying here and
there. Thanks to an overruling Provi-
dence not one of those working or
near were injured. One man had his hat
blown of, which fortunately was after
ward found. The frightened and mad
dened horses belonging to the company
ran furiously down the street, but were
finally stopped, with no injury whatever,
by brave, fearless Wesley Brown. No
injury was done the planners or other
machinery, except shafting and betting
torn in shreds. Notwithstanding the
numerous theories advanced, the cause
of the explosion is mystery. tits hoped
it will not take much over $1,000 to
repair the damages. Nothing is covered
by insurance. The three young men
composing the Port Republic Lumber
company are three en- terprislng, energetic
and ambitious young men. They have
commenced rebuilding at once. The
kindly sympathy for their financial loss
by some of our citizens show that their
efforts arefully appreciated. Capt. Blake
who is away disposing of his vessel, will
soon be at home. On his return they will
put in new engine and it will be but a
short time before we will again be hearing
the busy hum of the mill.

County Buildings May be Moved
to PleasantvilIe.
Atlantic City Press, Jan. II.
An Atlantic City member of the board
of freeholders last Friday, in talking to
a Press reporter, said that the board of
freeholders were ready to grant the be-
hest of a majority of the voters of the
county in the matter of the moving the
county seat to Atlantic City He could
not see the way clear, however, for the
success OF such a project. The county
would never expend $4,000 or $780,
900 for site for the county buildings
in Atlantic City when they have land in
plenty for the county buildings both at
Mays Landing and at Pleasantville.
1t was his opinion that if the county
seat is ever moved it shall go TO Plea
ssntville. The county had part of the
county buildings there and enough
ground to accommodate the other build
ings. By selecting Pleasantvilleitw would
give everybody who had occasion to
attend court or business with thecounty
clerk, easy access. The train service of
Pleasantvile is excellent and would be
augmented during court terms and likely
permanently. 1t would also be easy to
reach by roads and railroads from all
sections of the county.

and his voice will be heard to good ad-
vantage in the quartet.


Laura Reeves, is young lady of very
fascinating manners, and much admired
by her many friends, and as Mrs. Baxter
is most lOvable, as she assumes the duti-
full wife and the affectionate mother in a
way that at once captures all hearts.
Lizzie Risley is charming young lady,
as her large circle of acquaintance can
testify. Poor Aunt Jerushy is not q bit
like Miss Risley; that this distinction is
due her. Aunt Jerushy is character
that will win applause wherever pre-
sented if Miss Risley takes the role. She
has the honor of making the character
appreciable and if you don't laugh at her
Aunt Jerushy you have no sense of humor
Jennie Risley, has taken part in other
plays, and knows her business very well.
She impersonates Mary, the pastors
daughter, to perfection.
Clara Garrison, has been here some time;
and is very lady-like in all her ways. and
that she knows how to scream will be
shown by her portrayal of Hannah, the
pastors youngest daughter.
Miss Esther Reeves needs no introduc-
ton to you, though she is the youngest
lady in the play. She makes q Phoebe
that seems almost beyond an amateur.
She makes up as "real live" negro, and
with that inimitable dialect of hers, she
will fool the most critical into the belief
that she is second Topsy. Too much
praise cannot be given her.
Haddie Collins is home talent as you
will all agree, but if you had to yell at
her, as some do, who only know her as
Marin Brown, there would be trouble in
Pleasantville. She has very unpleasant
duty to perform in her character of Marin
Brown, but to one with her abilities it
seems easy. You had better put an extra
stitch in your coat oryou'll burst it when
you hear Marin Brown.
Eliza Risley is another of the "well
knowns" and we may add decidedly
popular wherever she goes. In Mrs.
Wilkins she certainly makes things lively.
Minta Andrews-well, you must know
her. They say she is one of the incest
girls in Pleasantuille and they are right,
but she has a sharp tongue when she
becomes Samanthy and she can keep them
all "a-guessing'.
Mrs. Kate interpretion of the role Of
Millisy is at once most forceful and
amusing. and you will like her, sure.

CAPE MAY.

Several members of Council and the
Mayor had peace conference last Thurs-
day night and Mayor Edmunds made an
address. He said he was tired of fighting
and that these petty victories which
either side won were barren OF honors.
He made the request that council restore
to him his police power, and repeal the
ordinances which were passed last sum-
mer requiring the trolley road on the
beach front not to run over certain rate
of speed; to stop at crossings and to take
up double track on the beach bOule-
ward, which was laid without consent OF
the council or property owners along the
route. The road, of which Mayor Ed
munds is superintendent, carried the
matter to court, and a decision will be
rendered next month, which, it is believ-
ed, will be in favor of the city. Mr..
Edmunds said, if council would grant
these requests, be would not interfere in
the expending of the $4,000 recently
voted for at a special election for NUM-
cipal improvements, and get out no more
injunctions as he didlast year. Heurged
if they could agree on this, four men
out fight. Mr.. Gile asked the mayor if
lit COulu udt0 luc UIdCA6 vi tuC tlOlACy
moved seaward twelve feet in order to
allow the building of q new twenty-four
foot boardwalk. He said he could not,
as he had no influence in that matter.
The conference then adjourned until the
next evening, when council was to an
swer, but the meeting did not take place
owing to the severe censure some received
and the praise others received for enter
ing into secret meeting on Thursday
night to talk over public affairs. The
councilmen refused to take further part
in the proceedings because, they say, the
mayor wanted them to do while he only
promised. The mayor will not talk
about the matter, but the councilmen
say they only wanted to learn secrets
from him. One gives it out and others
agree that the mayor said if his requests
are not granted he will certiorari the
subject of spending the $50, 900 improve
ment fund before the supreme court.
Senator Miller, it is given out, snot with
either party and believes they are wrong.
He is said to be a candidate for mayor
himself. As a step toward it he has or
ganized military company and is the
prime mover in the formation of the
newly started board of trade. The peo-
pie seem to be with Miller, as he says
public business should not be done be
hind closed doors.
