LONG BRANCH, N. J., June %. 1901.
With high merrymaking IN ball room and
on corridor. piazza. beach and driveway.
the season Of 1901 at the Branch starts
strong before the 1st of July. Though there
IS not in the cottage colony any President
or Vice President of the United States. yet
this part Of the Jersey coast Is still a rem
devious for public men. Senator David b.
Hill takes his dip In the ocean up at Nor
mandie- blythe Sea. Senator Edward Muir
ply Of New York is cottager at North
Long Branch and Senator James Smith, tr..
OF New Jersey spends the summer in his
beautiful villa opposite the Eiberon Hotel
OF politicians from New York there are
many among them being President Ran
dolph Guggenheimer of the common coun-
ell. The Grant cottage and the pretty
George w. Childs cottage adjoining 1t,
are now owned by New York people. The
FranckIyn cottage, where Garfield died
twenty years ago, IS still the central OBJ
ject of interest at Elberon. The cottage
remains practically the same as IT was in
1881. The little station, however, from
which the railroad spur was run off to the
cottage, has given place to pretentous
stone structure.
Golf continues this year as the pre-emi-
nent pleasure out of doors. The opening
of the Hollywood links last week was fol-
lowed this week by that Of the Norwood
Park Field Club. which announces an in
rner. The links at both Hollywood and
Norwood have been enlarged since last
year.
Around the Fourth Of July races of the
Monmouth GentIemens Driving and Field
Club at Elkwood Park interest is now
crnterirg among the summerites. The trot-
ting and pacing contests which will take
place just across the fields from the ruins
of the famous old Monmouth Park race
course. Will continue through July and 9.
On July - there will be a Balaklava melee
or Donnybrook fair.
The high temperature OF the ocean has
made bathing unusually popular for this
time of the season. The water has stood at
about 40 degrees for over a week. The
aristocratic Elberon Beach Club, where
millionaire maidens and matrons enjoy ex-
elusive bathing privileges far from the
vulgar gaze of the populace, opened this
week.
The heat this week has driven practically
every body into the surf. The bathing es-
Establishments at West End are to be en-
larged. The currents have so shifted the
sand since last summer that the wading
contingent Of bathers can now disport
themselves for nearly 100 yards from the
beach.
For the Fourth of July all the hotels ar
range special social functions. At the Hol-
lywood there will be series Of afternoon
teas on the lawns and dancing at night on
the pavilion connecting the hotels and at
the West End there will be dancing In the
evening the lawn bordering the forty
foot ocean BLUM, and a display Of fire.

Oil Run Into IL New Jersey Town.

New York, March 25.-A river of
flaming oil swept down upon the little
village of Glengarden, N. j.. while it's
Inhabitants were alseep Sunday morn
ing and reduced IL buildings. stores
and residences to ashes. The conflagra-
ton was extraordinary in character
and in it's origin.
The village is in a valley along the
line OF the Jersey Central railroad. An
immense freight train was coming east
at $50 a. m. 1t was composed of a
string of coal cars and IS tank cars
High above the village the track of the
railroad run along the side of noun
tain. They descend as they approach
the village, but even at the station are
considerably above the main street,
which runs up to the depot at a steep
incline.
few miles west OF the village. while
coming down the incline around the
mountain, the train parted The engi-
reer on the forward end pulled open
the throttle of the engine and tried to
race away from the section, which was
increasing its speed every second. He
managed to keep clear Of the racing
cars until he got opposite the depot at
Glengarden, when the second section
smashed into the first. The first Sec
ton, composed Of coal cars, was going
at a high rate Of speed and none of it's
cars were jolted of the track. The for
ward car, one of the oil tanks of the
railway section, was hurled sidewise
across the track and the tank cars be-
hind were piled upon top Of it in every
way. The first crash caused the oil in
one Of the tanks to explode and ignite
and the terrific heat caused the other
cars to explode. one after the other.
The incline running from the depot to
the main street acted as sluice for the
burning oil and 1t poured into the chief
thoroughfare Of the village. setting fire
to everything it touched. Houses.
fences. trees, shrubbery and barns were
reduced to ashes in an incredibly short
time.
Villagers awakened by the explosion
rushed from the oncoming food of blaz-
ing oil, carrying children in their arms.
Some risked their lives to free horses,
cows and dogs In outbuildings, but 9TH
er unfortunate animals could not be
reached in time and were burned.
Within five minutes after the first ex.
plosion the flowing river OF oil had
reached Masonic temple in the heart OF
the village and 10 minutes later that
structure was enveloped in flames.
Then building after building ignited
after the oil reached them. and within
half an hour the area of 400 feet square
was mass Of flame. From the wreck
ed cars the oil also flowed down the In
cline of the railroad track, making a
long line Of fire that destroyed the ties
and bent and twisted rails. Loss. $685..
900 to $4,000.
