words of wisdom.

The new county road having proven
such success, attention should now be
directed to another road, direct from
Pleasantville to Mays Landing. This
would open up travel to Vineland, Mill
vile and all South Jersey and be as pop
ular as the present road excepting to
Philadelphia cyclists. The new road
this year will bring more money into the
county than it costs and will pay for
itself many times over before the bonds
mature. 1t is splendid investment. A
direct turnpike to the county seat would
also improve property and help business.
The prospects are daily growing brigh-
ter for an early removal of the county
seat to this city or to Pleasantville. A
good gravel turnpike would be in line
with such change both before and after
it is made. It is not likely that bill
for such purpose will be pigeonholed
next winter by the assemblyman from
Atlantic county. Give us good roads
and more of them with returning pros

THE COUNTRY CLUB
AN ASSURED FACT.
One Hundred Heres of hand
Purchased.
ATLANTIC cI1rs GREAT PLAYGROUND.
GOLF LINKS, POLO, CRICKET BASEBALL AND
TENNIS GROUNDS TO BE LAID OUT. WORK
TO COMMENCE IN THE EARLY AUTUMN.
NEW CLUB HOUSE TO BE BUILT.

For several weeks past there have
been rumors of negotiations being con-
Quoted, by parties in Atlantic City, for
the purchase of a large tract of land
somewhere along the Shore Road to be
used for golf and polo grounds and other
games INDUCED in by wealthy and fash
ionable people. Yesterday (Tuesday)
the negotiations were completed by the
purchase of 100 acres of the Captain
Joseph Ireland homestead on the left
hand side of the Shore Road, below the
County Asylum, and adjoining property
enough to make golf ground OF eigh-
teen links.
The arrangements were completed
for the transfer OF the property by
Mr.. F. X. Hemsley, of ''The Brighton"
Hotel, Atlantic City, who is Presi-
dent OF the proposed Country Club,
and who, besides being largely
interested in the project himself,
represents several of the leading
hotel proprietors of Atlantic. Mr..
Hemsley went over the property
personally, Tuesday, in company
with Surveyor John p. Ashmead,
and gave such directions as were
necessary for the proper laying out
OI lue STOuuuS.
A. new modern Club House, of elegant
design, will be erected as so on as the
crops are removed and the grounds will
be put in fine condition before the
opening of another season.
The site selected is one Of the finest to
be found anywhere. 1t is dry and well
elevated and large rolling hill of mod
crate grade runs the entire length of the
grounds overlooking a superb view,
across the Bay, of Atlantic City, Vent
nor, South Atlantic Longport and Ocean
City.
With comparatively little expense
water communication can be established,
and landing made right up to the
lower edge of the property from the
places named across the Bay.
1t is also understood that arrange
ments have been made with the West
Jersey and Seashore Railroad, whereby
rapid transit will be continued the year
around with the motor trains now in
operation.
1t is needless to say that this
project will be of very great benefit
to Pleasantville and it's immediate
vicinity, and will greatly enhance
the value of all the adjoining prop
erty. 1t will be the great Questionable
playground of Atlantic City, and
thousands of people will come over
by train, carriage, and wheel to see
the games next Summer and in
succeeding seasons for the Country
Club is to become a permanent
institution.
The management will be on par with
that of such hotels as The Brighton,
The Windsor, Haddon Hall, and Others
OF that class, the proprietors of which
are directly interested in making it a
success.
1t was the original intention to have
the work completed this season, but
much delay was caused by negotiation
with parties who owned other sites and
held out for extortionate prices. When
they learn that their land will not be
needed at any price. they will probably
be somewhat disappointed at the pros
poet of holding 1T for generation or two
longer.

Last week, while away on his weekly
avocation in his boat claiming up at
Reeds Bay, Mr.. Henry Ang had a
strange and peculiar experience. When
be arose early in the morning his Satten-
ton was directed to an object on an
island some distance away. The object
resembled a man and proved to be one
when he reached it. In answer to a
question as to what he was doing there
the man said fifty men with guns and
pistols had driven him from Pleasant
vile; that he had waded the creeks and
bays where he could, and swan them
where he could not wade. After he had
become quieted he told Mr.. ADg he was
from Forked River spending his vaca-
ton, bat he withheld his name. After
getting a good breakfast he was set
ashore and went on his way rjoicing.
The man had been drinking heavily and
no doubt had had delirium tremens. But
for Mr.. Ang there is no telling what
would have become OF him.

Obituary..

The many friends of Mrs. James E.
Long, of Brookville, Pa, who number
of years ago passed several summers
with us will be greatly shocked to hear
of her sudden death on July 18th, at her
home in Dubois. Mrs. Long was not
thought to be seriously ill but after hav-
ing surgical operation performed for
stone of the bladder she gradually sank
and died. The interment was made in
the family vault at Brookville, where a
special train carried the mourners from
Dubois twenty-five miles distant. The
casket containing the remains and the
altar of the Episcopal Church at Brook
vile where the last services were con-
Quoted were covered with floral designs
of exquisite beauty. Mrs. Long was a
woman of exemplary character and be-
loved by all who knew her. Her many
acts OF charity consisted of educating
young people in their chosen profession
and her wealth could not be put to ssy
better purpose as she well knew. Her
husband Hon. James Il. Long, her
daughter Mrs. Malcolm Wise and her
sou Benton Long survive her.

ers commencing at Steelmanville the
