AT ATLANTIC CITY
Another Heavy Real Estate Deal at
Chelsea

Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star
ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., June 8. 1903.
There was a ripple Of excitement Tues
day evening, when the strollers on the
boardwalk saw a fleet of schooner Yachts
passing down the coast The fleet was
hailed by Captain Parker, yachtsman Of
this city. and it was learned that the yachts
belonged to the Atlantic Yacht Club of
New York, and that they were engaged in
race over course 24S miles in length and
extending from Sandy Hook to Cape May
and return. George Lander, jr.'s, schooner
was far in the lead and the others well
punched behind
The heaviest real estate transaction of
the week was the purchase Of tract Of
land In Chelsea by Charles A. Bake of
this city for 800, 600 While Mr.. Bake
declares that the buy was simply a specu-
alton, 1t is known that he has long had the
ambition of owning the finest hotel on the
island. A few days before making this
purchase he sold the Hotel Adolphus for
$4,000, and rumor has 1T that he will erect
magnificent structure on the Chelsea
property, which adJoins another tract
owned by him. The two combined form one
of the best hotel SEES in Atlantic City. 1t
Is said that his new hotel will have a ca
pacity of ] 900 persons.
The Royal Palace Hotel will be opened
by its proprietor. F. N. Pike about the end
Of next week. w. H. Ormes, the manager,
has opened the office of the hotel and has
already booked a majority of the best
rooms in the house. Many improvements
have been added to the hotel during the
closed season, including the installation of
fifty private baths. A Dutch grill will be
an attractive feature of the hotel this sea-
son. The wharf built in front of the Royal
Palace last year has been heightened and
will be used this season by a steamer that
is to be maintained for the exclusive use
of the guests of the Royal Palace
The full quota of life guards will go on
duty June 10. An Innovation will be made
this season in the form of elevated stations
along the beach for the life savers This
has been contemplated for several years
and is made necessary for several reasons.
One is that the guards are unable to work
over a rescued bather. owing to the crowds
that gather around him, shutting off the
air. 1t is asserted by the most expert life
guards that many lives have been lost in
this way. With an elevated platform be-
You'd the reach of the spectators the guards
will babble to work at better advantage,
and these elevated platforms will also give
the guards better view of the surf, and
will enable them to signal to the men In
the surfboats when bather is drawn I'M
der by the undertow. Another important
but seemingly absurd reason for the isola-
ton of the guards Is that bathers, espe-
cially the women bathers, engage them in
conversation to the extent that 1t greatly
This became so great a nuisance last year
that penalties were imposed on the guards
for talking with women while on duty and
ba Tiers were warned through a proclama-
ton by the mayor to abstain from talking
to the guards.

BALKY HORSES CHAMPION.
Lift His Fore Foot and He Will Forget
His Stubbornness.

From the Chicago Tribune.
The ballxy horse has found champion.
Miss Mabel Alva Messenger. who has been
conducting an individual crusade in behalf
of this much abused animal, Is broadening
her efforts to save the stubborn horse from
mistreatment. As lifelong friend of the
animal she is trying to save him from I'M
deserved punishment Miss Messenger has
more than plea for the balky horse. She
has cure for his stubbornness, She has
come upon such a horse, wearing his
drivers patience to the limit. blocking a
street full OF vehicles and probably tying
up two or three lines of street cars. and
with her plan has soothed the drivers
temper started the horse on his way, and
has released the congested mass of traffic
spont beat the horse. That Is Miss Mes
ssnger's first bit of advice. He may have
a sort of equine reason back of his con-
duct. Then her remedy is of the simplest
David Harum had an amusing remedy. but
il required patience. He, IL will be rernem-
bered. tied the animal so that it could not
move when IL wanted to, and his patience
exceeded that of the balky horse. Miss
Messengers remedy takes just a minute.
She simply lifts one of the horses front
hOofs. holds IL up for a minute, and when
she has dropped 1t the horse has lost his
stubbornness. The plan has never failed.
she asserts Explaining her crusade, Miss
Messenger says:
Much cruelty and inconvenience could
he avoided In the treatment of balky horses
did the drivers but know of a simple and
sure means Of curing this most disagree
able of faults. While in Arizona and New
Mexico l have known many permanent
cures effected in horses that have baked
for years. Whether it is permanent or not.
IL is always effective for the time being.
y horse that balks usually does from
having been overloaded at some time, ard
though at the time he balks his load may
be light. for, some unaccountable reason
he refuses to move"

If that result has been ACCOMPLISHED in
less than ten years 1t ought not to be I'M
rea sonable, it is contended, to suppose
there will be a similar development during
the coming ten years. At the end of that
period it will no doubt be true that the
roads now projected to run twenty and
even forty miles from the city will be
able to show an earning power equal at
least to the expense of their operation.
1t is not beyond reason to expect that they
will make even better showing.
There seems to be no question in the
minds of intelligent men that an increase
in the facilities of communication has an
apprectable effect upon the business Of the
city. The development of the local retail
business during the past decade has been
doubt that the thousands of people who
come here in increasing numbers each year
because this is the capital of the nation
also find that they can do their shopping
here to good advantage.
The Eqaul of Any.
Residents of Baltimore will come over
here to shop just as was formerly the habit
on the part of some Washingtonians to go
over to the monumental city to buy dress
goods and other supplies. At that time
the stores of Washington were not thought
to be the equal of those in Baltimore, but
now no one entertains such notion. The
fact is opportunities for shopping in this
city are generally TecOSnIZeQ as equal TO
those to be found in any of the great CEN
tiers. With a population of about three
hundred thousand souls within the borders
of the District of Columbia and the length
ening out of the lines of the influence of
the city. il is quite evident the era of
prosperity has come to the nations capt.
tai in such a form as to make it enduring
