SUNDAY TRAINS
NOT ALLOWED TO STOP AT AS.
BURY PARK.
Ministerial Crusade Successful to the
Disgust Of the Hotel Keepers
and Merchants


and Merchants
Asbury Park, i,. j., July A.-The
ministers have carried their points and
SO far as railway traffic is concerned
Asbury Park is completely shut off
from the outside world on Sunday All
trains scheduled to stop here went
right through today much to the dis
gust of many citizens who are opposed
to the ministerial crusade against Sun
day travel.
A small crowd collected about the
depot throughout the day, but there
was no disorder of any kind. Mayor
Ten Brock, who favors all trains
stopping here, declares that today's ac-
ton of the railway companies Is not
by any means permanent.
81 have assurances" ne said, that
before long the trains will be stopping
as usual. However, am not at liberty
to state how soon it will be before this
will take place."
Asbury Park merchants are consider
ing the adyisability Of going into the
courts to compel the companies to stop
their trains here. They declare that
much harm will be done the watering
place If the present Sunday exclusive
policy is maintained, as many persons
send their families here to spend the
summer and then come down to see
then on Sunday. If they cannot get in
and out of the place on that day they
will go elsewhere and the hotel pro-
prietors and shopkeepers will be the
sufferers, not the clergy.

YOUR SUMMER OUTING.

A duty all people owe themselves
that they may live long and prosper
is to take certain amount of recrea-
tion. Brainworkers especially owe
this to themselves. Their work is Ia
borious and monotonous, and they
should seek some means to have a
change for week or two at least, in
some manner which is entirely differ
ent to what they see around them. The
least expensive and most enjoyable
we can recommend is water trip.
The accommodations are firstclass
In every way and very reasonable.
