Quite u number of people on Five
Mile Beach are acquainted with the
genial James Allsopp, of 1927 north
Eighth street, Philadelphia, manufac-
turers' agent for worsted and mohair
yarns, spun silk and other material.
Mr.. Allsopp has a cottage nowi in course
of erection at Anglesea. This week he
writes to the JOURNAL enclosing a
dollar to pay his subscription in ad-
vance for another year and also sent a
dollar subscription for his friend, James
H. Clark, of 2422 north Sixth street,
Philadelphia. Mr.. Allsopp is a broad
minded man, and it is evident from his
letter that not a spark of jealousy exists
in his makeup. We will quote a part
of his letter in exact words: "Last sea-
son was Mr.. Clark's first visit to An
glesea. He was a guest of Bro. Chris,
Weldy. He was SO well pleased with
his visit that later he had his whole
family down for the season and said he
never enjoyed-a+more pleasant summer
in his life, and | hope in the near future
and it is not unlikely, he will become
a cottage owner and sojourner at An
glesea, and know that your JOURNAL
is one of the best mediums of keeping
visitors posted in the affairs of the Five
Mile Beach, and whether it is Anglesea,
Wildwood or Holly Beach, for myself,
| love the whole beach and hope to see
in the neal future a trolley line from
one end to the other, which will help
to build up the whole Of the beach.
Wishing prosperity to the beach, etc.'

A Warm ENGLAND,

The extremes of outdoor temperature
in England vary more than 1913 degrees.
The greatest heat probably on record
was registered in the valley of the
Midway ON July 20, 1868, when the
Thermometer at Tonbridge stood in the
shade at 1908 degrees f. Eleven years
later, in December, 1879, SO degrees Of
frost wer5 recorded at Blaukadder, In
Berwickshire-i. O., 23 degrees below
zero F. More remarkable, however,
than the heat in summer were the hot
winters of 174S and 1867 and the warm
Januarys of 1877. 1884 and 1885,

His Mongoose Experience.

"Although l sold tickets in q red orr.

dime museum man, II was badly fooled
once In an animal deal. mean by this
that ! fooled myself. Igot a letter from
a collector, who wanted to know IL I
would buy a mongoose. l wrote back to
have it shipped at once, and it was to
be in the museum ready for exhibition
III Monday morning. I had a rather
hazy idea of what the beast looked like,
but I was sure that it was something
big, with tusks, and I told our artist to
go ahead on that idea and spread him
self.
HE did. The picture he evolved
would catch any ones eye at any range.
He took a whole frame of canvas and
painted for a background a tropical is
land, with the mongoose chewing up
sailors on the shore.
1.-THE picture was finished Sunday,
and I couldn't help but rub my hands
when I looked at it. The moment 1t
was hung out people f1ocked around 1t,
and the early morning attendance Mon
day was remarkable. The doors were
opened before I got down, and as I went
up stairs I could hear a subdued growl.
That's the mongoose, / said to
myself. The idiots haven't fed it.
at wasn't the mongoose. 1t was the
crowd growing like a Roman mob be-
hind the scenes. They had been lured
by the picture, and when they got to
the cage labeled 'Mongoose' they could
not see the beast at all. 1t had buried
itself in the straw. Chicago Tribune.
