More than surf bathing or any of the
other many diversions which the summer
ties indulge in at Asbury Park, they enjoyed
this week the magnificent spectacle of the
storm at sea which prevailed during Tues
day and Wednesday. The high easterly
gale sent the white caps tumbling against
the Jersey coast as they had not done be-
fore since last midwinter; and every in
lander in town turned out and spent all
day promenading up and down the beach

the plank promenade being damaged much
this year, however. because a system of
jetties which Founder Bradley con-
structed year ago have so built up the
beach that the sand affords a natural and
invulnerable protection to the pianking.
For several years the services at the
Asbury Park Auditorium have been ad-
dressed by speakers of national reputation.
The national service, which is held every
Sunday afterne on, has brought to Asbury
Park most of the members of the Harri-
son and Cleveland cabinets. and many
senators and representatives. The manage
ment has secured several distinguished
publicists for this season. 1t is probable
that ex-President Benja min Harrison will
be one of the speakers. Mr.. John Wanna
maker of Philadelphia has promised to
come and so has Rev. Frank Talmage, son
of Dr. T. Dewitt Talmage.
