There is nothing new under the sun?'

so far as they have to do with realities

WILDWOOD-BY-THE-SEA.
In the inception and development of
this delightful seaside resort, the plan
and scheme upon which it was founded
and by which it was settled, early secured
and continuously held the confidence of
all who became in any way interested;
and therein lay the secret of its claim
upon popular favor, and its wonderful
success to the present time. But where or
what was the prime factor in thus secur-
ing and holding this confidence {? 1t was
the well known reputation for honest
dealing, strict integrity and uprightness
of the gentlemen who launched the enter
prise, the three brothers, Philip P. Baker,
Latimer r. Baker and J.. Thompson
Baker, the latter being a lawyer Of prom
inence in Lewisburg, Pa. The first two
settled in Vineland about fifteen years
after Charles K. Lands had cut down
the first oak in the founding of that at

satisfaction in dealing with them. and l
declare no new thing when | say that
such men cannot fail to make a success in
life. A success that brings not only
honor and prosperity to themselves, but
which reaches out to the promotion of
the wellbeing and the happiness of those
about them, and of all with whom they
nave to do. l have best been personally
acquainted with Philip p. and never ex-
changed greetings with him without feel
ing that l was in the presence of one of
the truest of gentlemen; and, throwing
partisan feelings aside, it must be said of
Senator Baker hat when he sat in legis-
lative halls, he did honor to his con-
stituents, to himself and to the State. l
have never heard nor read of these BROTH
ers, either in public or private life, bring
ing down upon themselves the least
harshness of criticism.

The attractiveness and great prosperity
of Wildwood as a seaside resort at the pres
ent day, reflect the value of the personal
and undivided attention given by Mr..
LaJimer Baker to the enterprise, and
he may justly entertain a feeling of pride
as he looks about him and contemplates
the spirit of enjoyment and comfort and
happiness so abundantly found in the
beautiful homes of the jewellers upon this
lovely seaside spot.

LDWOOD, the Beautiful! Child of the Sea
Charmed spot, gladly pay homage to thee,
Nestled in cedar, and holly and vine,
Where verdure and wild flowers their sweetness combine.
Healing is oceans breath, glorious her tide,
That chants its weird music while having thy side.
Happy the mortas who here find abode,
Where Nature her bounties SO largely bestowed.

such a stage as to yield to the company
more gratifying results.
Know We the land where the Red Man
late roamed,
Through primeval woods after beasts
of the chase;
Where nature her prodigal bounties be-
slowed,
For the use of the favorite race?
Thus we schoolboys used to sing more
thai -ty years ago. Yes, we know the
land, but If poor Lo were to visit the
Cape now he would not know it, nor
recognize his old haunts, or be able to find
the spots upon the beaches w-hereinsummer
he pitched his wigwam seeking the gamey
fisb.sgathering CLAIMS and oysters. and in
the reeds and bushes where pic
turesque Wildwood now stands. While
four footed game is now extinct pon our
beaches, natures other prodigal bounties
still exist.
We are moving on, and shall not pass
this way again. Perhaps its well. Life's
burdens are many and ofttimes sit heavily
upon us. Let us try to be brave and
strong, and secure as much comfort and
happiness as is possible, holding fast that
which is truly good.
The bounds of earth give room for mirth,
Though many hearts are signing;
Life's tuneful Tyre doth joy inspire,
And send the shadows flying.
Then give small room to thoughts of
gloom,
And cherish what is brighter;
Twill lift thee up from sorrows cup
And make thy burdens lighter.

RIVERS RISE CONTINUES,

The guage on White river at New port Wednesday morning, registered 28.1 feet and showed slow rise dur ing the day. The rise at Mt. Olive for Tuesday night was 6 inches, while Batesville reported the river on a stand. A further rise however is ex- pected from the upper river and it's tributaries.
 Black river, flowing through the lowlands with slower current, con- tinues to rise, but the general reports would indicate that the danger of an overflow has been exaggerated. The local guage without further rains will not probably pass 30 feet, which is four feet over the danger line.
 Robt Anderson telephones from Jacksonport that the water is coming into the town and another foot will give them a genuine overflow.
 Water is said to be seeping through the Choctaw dump and filling the

SENATOR CLARKE
 HOMEWARD BOUND.

"Old Cotton Top" as Arkansas new senator, Hon. James P. Clarke IS hest known in his home state, passed through Newport Wednesday morn ing on Passenger No. Il on his return to Little Rock from the national capl- tai.
 The train was detained here few minutes having received orders to pass No. ? at Newport, and during the short stop, Senator Clarke came out upon the car steps. The INDEPENDENT reporter happened to be standing near and recognized at once the dis tinguished looking Arkansan and af6er greetings, pressed the Senator Tor statement in regard to the conflicting reports sent out from Washington, claiming on the one hand that he had refused the proffered courtesy of his colleague to escort him to the presi- dents chair in taking the oath of office and on the other hand that both Berry and Carmack had refused him thls courtesy.
 The Senator begged to be excused from an expression on this point ana laughingly remarked that he had to come home to learn the news of the national capital. Anything from him might tend to make more acute the long strained relations between him self and Senator Berry. Unless the latter felt constrained to answer the newspaper reports, he had nothing to say, intimating that should Senator Berry reply, he too might later be heard from.
 The departure of No. II cut short the interview at this hardly satisfac- tory stage.

Berlin. Dec. las a result of the con-
troversy between the artists of the i'm
pressionist school and the general associ-
alton OF art societies of Dresden, concern
ing the representation of German art at
the st. Louis Universal Exposition, a
committee of impressionists from all the
leading cities of Germany met at Weimer
to-day to establish league in opposition
to the general association.
Count Kesslcr, director of the Weimar
Art Exhibition. took the initiative in
bringing the protesting artists together
and the Wemer artists intend to do
everything possible to promote the new
movement.
Addresses were made by Count Kessler
and Hans Olde. director of the Grand
Ducal Art School. Professor Olde pointed
ont the necessity of new organization to
represent the intere SITS of the impression
lists and said that this organization should
have its own art jury.
After a full discussion it WAS voted to
establish German Artists League with
permanent headquarters at Weimar.
The leagues plan of campaign for fore
ing representation at the st. Louis tniver-
sal Exposition has not yet been divulged.

Delegates Vote to Have Six

! REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Chicago Dec 1.-THE American League
maSnates a. their annual meeting to-day,
voted to abolish The foul strike rule and
| TO lengthen the playing schedule to in
cludc 15i games.
The discussion of the foul strike began
soon after the meeting was called to or
der at the Auditorium Annex. and when
a vote was called for every one was for
returning to the former rule.
n committee of three was appointed to
meet the National League delegates and
try to win them over That this effort
will meet with failure seems assured and
IA deadlock with the two major leagues
using different rules, is in prospect for
next year.
Charles Comiskey of Chicago. James
kiifoyie OF Cleveland and Frank Farrell
of New York comprise the American
League committeeman. No date has been
set for the conference.
The action of magnates in frightening
the season was the surprising feature of
the meeting. The National League, hav-
ing declared for the long playing season
makes impossible any post-season games
between the leagues, and was the subject
of criticism.
Members of the younger league declared
themselves in favor OF playing not more
than 40 games. However. the matter was
considered to-day from the financial stand
point. 1t was argued that the players
would have To be paid practically as much
for a five-months' season as for six. and
with the post-season schedules abolished
the magnates faced serious financial
less.
A session was held tonight for the ptr-
pose of awarding the pennant to Boston.
Only few minor details were con-
sidered.
To-morrow's session will probably see
the windup.
The magnates and managers had little
time 10 discuss trades to-day.
Frank Farrell of New York and Hedges
and Bruce of the ST. Louis Browns adj
Eiitted that they We're in the market for
good players. Between to-nights adjourn
ment and tomorrow several deals may be
