syvania Railroad.
With the Inauguration of the preliminary
summer schedule of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, on May oath, a new era Will be
marked in the train service to Cape May.
During the spring worlcmen have been
busy relaying the track south Of Newfield
with one-hundred-pound steel rail, and the
completion of this work places the road in
a matchelss physical condition. The solid
ity of the roadway makes II possible 20
use the heaviest and fastest Of the new
type of locomotives, and thus a reduction
of the time Of transit, heretofore imprac-
tlcable, will be made. Ninety minutes from
the foot of Market street to Cape May will
be the scheduled time OF the fast express
trains, which will be run at the hours best
adapted to the convenience Of the daily
travellers. This time win prove revelation
TO the veterans who have logged quietly
and contentcdly over the limo for years,
yet the Increased speed entails no abridg-
ment of security and comfort, but rather
enhances both. wllile # very materially
] lexpelltcs the movement between the two
terminals. Ninety minutes on an excellent
roadbod means great deal more to the
daily rider than the actual reduction in
the running time would indicate, and che
saving OF half an hour over the old sched-
ule brings Cape May much nearer 10 Phila-
dolphia than ever before.
Tho trains will be equipped with parlor
and club cars and new vosubuled coaches,
which means the perfection of comfort in
day travel.
New Interests at Cape May have infused
new HE in Dts municipal governments, and
/ improvements are now being pushed for
ward by public and private enterprise
which win make the famous old resort
more attractive than ever. The indications
for the coming summer foreshadow a
season of uncxampled activity.
A number Of the smaller hotels are now
open, and others will open their doors curly
In June.

a decision of the umpire, threw the ball

struck this reporter very forcibly,
why will an educated and enlight-
ened people, as so many Montgom-
cry county democrats are, minpIe
with such q crowd, cling to such q
party of men, vote their ticket and
be the dupes of such political
scoundrels as their own members
say and all the records have prov
en- them to be. The old national
issues of the democratic party have
passed away long ago, and we are
living under different political con-
ditions. The only national policy
the democratic party has had for
years past Is free trade, free silver,
rund to oppose the republicans on
almost every progressive ISSUE
And as for Missouri, II supported
Cleveland a gold bug In 1892, Bry-
an silver bug In 1895 and 1900,
