great camp fire. when addresses will be de-
livered by prominent speakers. Thursday
and Friday evenings there will be recep-
tions and other entertainments at various
hotels and other places.
To Suppress the "Bnrkers."
The first determined effort to stop bark
ing on the boardwalk was taken during
the past week, when one of the most per-
sistent "barkers'' was arrested and SEN
fenced to three days in Jail. The practice
of calling out the merits of the various
amusements had become most obnoxious
the walk being converted at times into a
regular pandemonium. and the city au-
th.Orities decided that 1t must be stopped.
win InlS emu IN view. tNe COUNCIL paSSeu
an ordinance prohibiting anything of the
kind Before any arrests were made the
amusement men were all given fair warn
ing. but the man arrested defed the police
and persisted in breaking the law. He has
taken an appeal TO the council on technical
grounds. but the arrest has had a good
effect. and strollers on the walk are no
longer annoyed by the barking fraternity.
The Life Guards.
The city life guards will go on duty about
the middle of the month. when the bath
ing season is supposed to open There
have been but few bathers as yet. owing
to the continued cool weather, but it will
require only few warm days to fill the
ocean with a merry throng of lovers of
the sport If all used ordinary caution. the
services of the life guards would not be
required. but there are always some reck
less spirits, who will insist on endangering
their lives by their foolhardiness. and 1t
Is for the benefit of these that the guards
are kept on duty.
Deyotees of terps;chore find plenty to
amuSe them these days The dances at
TIE Brighton Castro are perhaps the most
fashionable, and are weiI attended. Week
ly hops are being given the always
popular ocean pier, and the management
will announce daily hops in a week or so.
Nearly every evening a dance is given
at some one of tie principal hotels and
private dances are by no means a rarity.
The formal opening of the Hotel Cresson
Is announced to take place Monday even
ing A banquet and dance will be the
features.
