A movement is on foot among the
wheelmen of Philadelphia, Camden, and
that part of Burlington county which
borders on the Delaware, to make gravel
cycle path between Browns Mills and
Manchester, via Writings, in order to get
short route to Toms River and Island
Heights. Subscriptions have already been
received and these wheelmen are in earn
est.
The following is from letter from Da-
vid Pettitt, Philadelphia business man
living in Beverly, to Wellington How
land, of the Manchester township COM
mittee, asking the aid of local cyclists:
with number of other wheelmen of
Burlington county, am deeply interest
ed in the project of forcing our way across
the intervening sand to Toms River. We
have excellent stone roads or gravel paths
to Pemberton and the line is now to be
built to Browns Mills, 81 miles further.
We want to build a bicycle path from
Browns Mills to Writings and Manches-
ter. l have been over the wagon road,
via Hanover Furnace. and gave that route
up in disgust. My plan now is to pro-
coed due east above the stream and about
to one mile from the railroad and lay
down path 4 feet wide of gravel exclu-
sively for bicyclists. If if this is done,
do you think the Toms River wheelmen,
with the aid of the Manchester riders,
would extend the path to make the con-
nection between Writings and Manches-
ter? From Beverly to Atlantic City is 70
miles, a race course all the way but
with Browns Mills and Manchester con-
nected, the distance from Beverly to
Island Heights will be but AZ or 43 miles,
and l believe on Sundays and holidays
from 1000 to 1900 wheelmen will use the
road to the coast. Will you start the ball
rolling and report 1 understand that of
the miles between Writings and Man
chester, miles is fairly graded and grsv
eled for bicycles and that the whole dis
lance is ridable."

A new hotel was licensed. It is situat-

Frank P. Banks. constable, of Pemberton
This house is on the property of the Chats
worth Land Committee, and is for the &C.
commodation of guests who visit the place
in the fall and winter.
Patrick F. Smith renewed his applica-
ton for license to keep hotel in Beverly
township in the house formerly occupied
by James Russ. When this application
was before the Court about year ago
there was remonstrance against it, based
mainly on the actions in and around the
house when Mr.. Russ kept it. 1t was also
claimed then that the citizens Of Beverly
city wanted to decrease, rather than in
crease, the drinking places in their midst
During the past year, however, Council
in that city has licensed an additional ho-
tel and saloon. On Mr.. Smiths appllca-
ton, at this time, are the names of mem
bers of city council. In addition the
Court had received several petitions from
persons who claimed that the hotel is al
actual necessity, being close to the rail
road station.
Judge Gaskill said he did not think any
testimony necessary at this time but be
would hear argument of counsel, afte
which the license was granted.
