giving Day had the effect of bringing number or
visitors to the city, but. owing the bad weather
which has prevailed. they have not made much of
a showing, either the streets the esplanade
Every hotel has had family parties. however, and
The mirth and ioty inside have made up Tor the
dulness of the weather outside. The wet weather
has had the effect of bringing out fine display of
rainy day costumes. Practically everybody in town
has made a trip along the beach this week for the
purpose of seeing the effects of last Sundays big
storm. The ruined board walk in the upper part of
the city has been the chief attraction The de-
struction of this section of the board walk will! in
the end prove be good thing. This portion or
the espIanade has been in bad condition for some
time and the amount of money spent in repairs
would have gone long way toward building a
walk It IS the intention of the city authorities
to build entire walk across the damaged
section.
The severe storm has also had the effect Of draw
Ing attention TO the greatly increased stability OF
the more modern OF Atlantic City's structures
Storms no worse than this last one would few

property owners of this city, but they arouse
only passing comment.

The horscman and driver. both local and visit

wagons and as many possible OF the omnipres-
buses and the turning OF 1t over to the drivers
