The "Dickey" Birds.

Monday evening two of our distin-
guished fellow-citizens, Squire" Abbott
and Lewis Ell. Barrett, shouldered their
shot-guBs and went down on the mead
ows atSouth Atlantic, to shoot "dickey"
birds. They waited and waited, and
then they waited some more, and while
they waited they killed freight carload
of mosquitoes, and after long tarry
they killed two "dickey" birds, and only
two. On the way home they found it was
necessary to agree upon some sort
of lie that would seem reasonable to
other old bird hunters like Mark Sanders,
Elwood Adams and Robert Willis.
"How many shall we tell 'em we killed r.
said the Squire? 81 think about two
Dozen" said Lew "That not enough"
replied Abbott. swell, make it four
dozen, then, remarked Barrett. "Even
that is not enough for big evenings
cunning for. two men," insisted Abbott.
So they continued to raise the number as
they approached home, until they finally
settled upon twelve dozen as the proper
number to promulgate. Then the next
morning both gunners spread abroad the
glorious news, that the twain had
slaughtered one hundred and forty-four
"dickey" birds, the night before. And
now all the old gunners around town,
who have to fix up" such stories them
selves, are asking each other how it
happened that the two sportsmen could
lose one hundred and forty-two birds on
the way home.

Caught In the Act,

Willie johnson the little colored boy
who was recently released from jail,
where he was sent on the charge of vag-
rancy, was arrested Friday morning for
setting fire to barn belonging to Harry
johnson, near the toll gate. He was
caught by Job. Smith who took him
before Justice J. F. Abbott who sent
linn to the Jail at Mays Landing. His
pockets were found to be full of tobacco,
cigarettes and cannon fire-crackers which
be had stolen from the store of Charles
Lake. He is only nine years old, but is
about as "tough" nut as can be found
in days travel. Since he lett jail he has
been veritable tramp about the village,
sleeping in barns, carriages. doorways
or wherever he could get shelter. The
w. C. T. u. made a formal complaint to
Judge Endicott and requested that he be
sent to the State Reform School, but as
there was no criminal charge pending
against him at the time the complaint
was made the Judge of course could not
send him there. Now, it would seem
there is good ground for action, and it
is to be hoped that he may be sent to
the Reform School where be can bc
properly taken care of and educated.

A pretty little incident, worth repeat
ing, occurred at a lawn party one evening
during the past week. 1t appears that
one of our prominent clam dealers, along
with several ladies of Absecon,- and a
clergyman, were sitting in hammock
when therope broke and down came all
hands to the ground. The clam dealer
being of poetical turn of mind, immed-
lately repeated those words of Shelly's,
Nothing in this world is single. all
things by law divine, in each other is
being mingled. Why not I in thine
Such beautiful poetry from such an un-
expected source, Immediately prompted
the suggestion that the lawn party form
an assembly of a more serious nature,
and the minister being willing to perform
his duties, several of the ladies present
offered to volunteer as witnesses, but the
clam dealer, with great presence of mind,
gallantly crawled out OF the dilemma by
stating that he loved all the girls aud it
was simply impossible for him to make
q preference.

harmless drink like soda water, is on

for somebody to explain to me why
selling soda on Sunday is wicked and
selling whiskey and brandy disguised
as medicine, is righeOus? But as
said before the weather is too warm
to argue such questions.
The children's meeting was a most
interesting service and the most de-
lightful part OF it to me was to see
eight little boys and sweet faced girls
playing their violins and leading the
sacred song service. How fortunate
for them that they do not live in this
vicinity where some church members
believe q fiddle" is the = instrument
of the Devil" and player of it a fit
subject for tar and feathers
The attendance at all the services
during the day was very large
and q deep religious feeling
was manifested everywhere. Hun
dreds and probably thousands, drove
in teams from the surrounding towns
while Others came in trains from
various places. The weather was
perfect, though rather warm, and
when night came all must have felt
that they had enjoyed the day in

terday afternoon. At the station they
fell into line. each company being pre-
ceded by red and white banner bear
ing the number of the regiment and the
company letter. Colonel Roosevelt rode
at the head OF the regiment as it
marched down the Alameda skirting
the water front to the dock, where the
Miami was moored. All the men
looked fit, but worn out. They present
ed picturesque appearance. Some
wore new khaki uniforms, while others
were attired in heavy blue flannel
shirts, with their old equipment. All
expressed regret at leaving their five
companions behind, but were wild with
joy at the prospect Of SO soon return
ing home. They take no tents or bag
gage with them. The work of en-
barkation was very easy and was
quickly performed. The men are ready
and eager to return for the Havana
campaign in the fall.
