Ocean Grove Bather Covered with Sand
Became Chilled and Nearly Died.

Asbury Park, N. j., July 24:-Mrs
A. p. Neal, guest at the La Pierre
Hotel, Ocean Grove, had a peculiar
experience on the beach yesterday
Mrs. Neal came out of the water, lay
on the beach and allowed her friends
to cover her with sand. She felt cold
and hastened to the bathhouse, where
she became unconscious. In this con-
dition she was carried to the beach,
where physicians worked over her for
two hours before she revived.
This is the first case of the kind re-
corded on the Ocean Grove beach, and
it has created some speculation as to
whether the practice of covering a
wet body with sand is not dangerous
while the bathing garments are wet.
For time Mrs. Meals life was
despaired of.

The fate of the fishermen may be
known when the Lighthouse Depart

hears from the Scotland lightship.
