DEAL BEACH.
A Beautiful Residential Resort ON the
Jersey Coast.

Special Correspondents Of The Evening Star
DEAL, N. j., June "a, 1899
This famous old resort, many years q
popular summering place under the name
of Deal Beach, Is rapidly becoming one of
the most beautiful residential resorts on
the entire shore. The plans drawn for this
resort by the wel-known landscape archi-
tect, Mr.. Nathan F. Barrett are now
nearing completion, and Deal begins to re-
sembe series of very beautiful gardens.
The view along the Esplanade. the main
boulevard, extending from the handsome
new railroad station directly to the bluff
overlooking the sea, is especially beautiful.
The twenty handsome inn cottages being
erected around the Deal Country Club are
rapidly nearing completion. The first one
was finished on Monday and Mr.. Sanger
M Pullman, with Mrs. Pullman, took pos
session of the coy little home on that day.
Nearly all of these coy and unique homes
have been rented by enthusiastic newcom-
ers, and the little cottage colony will be
one of the most attractive summering spots
on the shore. The enlargement of the
Country Club is progressing rapidly, and
Will be completed within few days. The
beautiful links of the Deal Golf Club, on
the western end Of the resort, are attracting
new members daily. The membership list
here now reaches over 800. The nine addi-
tional holes being added to the course are
practically complete, Hnd play will be al
lowed over them as soon as the new crop
of grass has grown stronger. The work
on the handsome dub house. being erected
at a cost of $15,00U isrprogressing rapidly.
and will be completed about the middle Of
July. The success of'fthis club has been
most phenomenal. 8There will be reorea-
nization here this week and an election of
officers for the ensding year.
The big Hathaway Inn has been much
improved since the close of last season. and
Is more attractive than ever before. Pro-
prfetor Marsh returned from the south a
few weeks ago. and is, already entertaining
number of early guests.
r. b. Wilson, the noted golf expert, who
has been engageb as master of the greens
and Instructor, is already settled here, and

EDUCATION IN THE SOITH.
Brilliant Address on the Subject Mt
CapOn Springs.
2 of The Evening Star.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star
CAPON SPRINGS, w. Va, June %, 1899
The conference on Christian education in
the south at Capon Springs Is considered
one of the most important ever held in
this section of the country, both from the
timely interest of the questions discussed
and the number of distinguished persons
present.
Todays addresses We're particularly bril-
liant. Mr.. j. l.. NJ. Curry of Washington
spoke in the interest Of the poor whites of
the south. Northern generosity, he said,
was principally directed to the education
and enlightenment of the Indians and
blacks, and while he would not take one
cent from these he asked that the equally
needy whites should also be remembered.
Referring to the famous speech made here
by Daniel Webster at the opening of the
present Capon Springs Hotel over fifty
years ago, attention was drawn to the
many prominent men the south has pro-
duced, and to the fact that with its COM
paratively scanty population prior to the
it possessed more schools than the
north.
Dr. Mayo of Washington made motion
that Dr. Curry's speech be printed for pub
lie distribution. DIR. Alexander Shaw, edi-
tor of the Review of Reviews, generously
offered to publish it in any form the con-
ference might prefer. The offer was &C
cepted.
Prof Wilson of Washington and Lee Uni
versity followed DIR. Curry on the same
subject in one of the most eloquent and en-
Enthusiastically applauded speeches that has
yet been made. He gave a brief account OF
the venerable institution of which he Is the
president, telling of it's humble origin as
a log hut in pre-revolutionary times to its
present growth. But, he declared, he would
gladly give up the handsome building OF
today and go back to the lowly cabin II
the college could again turn out the men
of giant intellect and strength of character
1t produced in bygone days.
In the evening speeches were made by
President Baldwin of the Long Island rail-
road and by Prof. Ormond Stone of the
Leander Mccormick observatory and DR..
Charles w. Kent of the Linden Kent Me-
mortal School, both of the University OF
Virginia Prof. Stone is northern man,
who for many years has been identified
with southern education, and, therefore,
we'll able to speak on the complex subject
of different races. DR.. Kent is a member
of the committee on resolutions. and Is
thoroughly interested in public schools.
He will take part this summer, as he has
for three successive years, in the Virginia
school of methods.

At AsBURY PARK.
BRIGHT Prospects for n Successful
Season This Year.

Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star
ASBURY PARK, N. j., June "a, 1892
After several very hard seasons and
war scare that came very near wrecking
several hotels last year, Asbury Park has
taken a new lease on life. and in the minds
of nearly every hotel man and boarding
house keeper radiant picture of long and
continued prosperity is forming. OF course
the same hope is expressed every season,
but this year there Is much reality behind
their views and much more substantial evil
dences of coioring in the form of an exeep-
tionally large number of early visitors. All
of the hotels are now open with the excep-
ton of the Coleman, which, owing to the
extensive repairs and improvements will
not be ready until the coming week. The
West End Hotel, being conducted this year
by Mayor F. l.. Ten Brock is doing a
splendid early business and will be nearly
filled by the first of the month.
All of the bathing houses were opened
this week and hundreds of the eottagers
and early hotel guests took their initial
dips in the ocean.
The following registered from Washing
ton: Jas. Il. Boyd. at the Ocean Hotel:
Miss Tullock and Miss Priest at the Vic
toria, Miss A. J. johnson and Miss Y. john

with rectal troubles in any form
should avail themselves Of this op-

ask you to pay one cent until you
are perfectly well. His work GER

was getting into action in Ellis street.
Chief Sullivan was directing its opera
lions.
"Shaughnessy!" said that district en-
gineer to the busy chief by way of re-
porting for orders.
Go TO Market street" was all the chief
said.
At that moment the fast-swelling
crowds of onloOkers on the Eilis-street
side were thrilled by a sight far UP above
them. A Whitehead woman stood on the
broad cornice by the mansard roof above
the fifth floor. She was beside the fire
escape, but was apparently too bewil-
dered to go down it. If she tainted or
loosed her hold she would fall to the
street below. Fire was above and near
about her. and flames were beginning to
leap out from the windows below. Help
must come soon or it would be too late
The crowd watched and shuddered.
Shaughnessy was hurrying to his as
signed post and James Cumisky, nomi-
nally tillerman of truck No. 6, but acting
as assistant to Engineer Wills, was pull
ing at hose lines in another part of the
street. They saw the 4TOman's peril and
both instantly started for the fire es-
cape. Neither had received an order, but
they hesitated not an instant
Somebody had set up a long scenery box
from the theater in standing position to
reach to the bottom Of the iron ladder at
the first story. Cumisky, who had been a
sailor, caught up long rope and with it
over his shoulder scrambled up the seen
cry box. Shaughnessy was at his heels.
At the bottom landing CumiskY gave his
ellow-firenan a hand. and then up they
went together, face to face, the sailor
fireman on the outside of the little iron
ladder and the boss of a district on the
inside No fire was yet leaping out of the
windows next the fire escape.
At the fourth floor landing Shaughnessy
stopped for Cumisky to go up and let the
woman down by the rope to him, when
