Charles F. Richter Meets
an Accidental Death.

Charles f. Richter, a member OF tht
Primrose Rod and Gun Club at Grassy
Sound. was drowned in the Delaware
river at Camden on Wednesday, De
cember 7th, 1904. Mr.. Richter had re-
Gently installed an electric motor in a
launch for the Hotel Rudolf at Allan
tic City. Accompanied by several
friends, Mr.. Richter boarded the launch
for the purpose of making a trial trip.
He took his stand in the bow of The
boat and his friends entered the cabin.
After a few minutes he started toward
the stern on a narrow deck, when the
boat lurched and he was thrown over
board. He was seen struggling in the
water by a sailor, who gave an alarm,
but nothing could be done. His body
was recovered an hour afterward.
MI. Richter was so years of age and
lived at 529 Market street, Camden
He leaves a wife.
MI. Richter was treasurer of the
Richter Electric company, of 81 Fed
eral street, Camden. He became
known to the people of Five Mile
Beach in the spring of 1897, when he
obtained a franchise from the Wild
wood Borough Council permitting him
to equip and operate an electric light
plant. In company with Ruric N.
Adams and others he built the electric
plant III Holly Beach and operated it
during the summer of 1897, later as
signing it to the Seacoast Electric Light
and Power company. In October,
1898, the plant was bought by Abra-
ham Anderson at sheriffs sale. Some
time afterward it went into a receivers
hands and the name was changed to
the West Jersey Electric company, by
which title the concern is known to-
day. The present first-class electric
plant in Holly Beach is the outgrowth
of Mr.. Richter's efforts in 1897.
The funeral was held on Monday of
this week from his late residence in
Camden, interment being made in
Harleigh cemetery. During the sum-
mel Mr.. Richter was a frequent visi-
tor to Grassy Sound. He was a kind
ly man and well liked among his
associates.

A Christmas Game.

A Yuletide version of the donkey
party is played thus: On a sheet sketch
or paste a design of a Christmas tree.
Have each branch of the tree termi-
nate in a circle containing a number,
using the numbers from one to ten OF
one to twenty-five, according to the
size of the tree. Each person playing
Is blindfolded in turn and is given a
rosette with which he must decorate
the tree Each person aims to pin
his or her rosette on or neal to the
highest number of the tree. Each COM
petitor has three trials, the three num-
bers to which he pins nearest being
written down to his credit by the host
ess, who keeps tally. The one whose
three numbers added together gives
the largest sum total wins the first
prize.

Winter is Upon Us.

Winter of the old fashioned variety
put in appearance with a vengeance
last Saturday. When the people of the
island awoke they found about three
inches of snow On the ground. 1t con-
tlnued to snow all day until after dark
and was quite cold. Saturday night
there must have been close to ten in
ches of SNOW on the level and it was
not drifted very much. Sunday was a
beautiful winter day and some few peo-
pie were seen on the boardwalk. Street
supervisor Newcomb and his men with
a four horse team and a snow pillow
made Il good wide path through all the
streets of Wildwood on Sunday. The
weather moderated on Monday and a
light rain fell most all the forenoon
tuesday was a beautiful day and some
what colder. The sleighing is excel
lent on the island and throughout Cane
May county, something unusu for
the seashore.

Would not be without it. Have doc
tored with local physicians and also at
Chicago, and even went to Norway
with hopes of getting some relief, but
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is the only reme-
dy that has done me any good, and |
heartily recommend it. Every person

Mrs. Samuel Gage, of North Bush, N.
Y. says: 1 had a fever sore on my an
kle for twelve years that the doctors
could not cure. All salves and blood
remedies proved worthless. l could
not walk for over two years. Finally

Masons ExpeI BOodlers.

The expulsion of the boodlers at 81.
Louis from the Grand Lodge OF Masons
of Missouri, the Kansas City Times
THINKS, points to the true way 10 enu
this sort of rascality-by social ostra-
cism. 1t declares:
1.-THE same punishment should DE
met by robbers of high finance VINO
are. enemies of the social order. Inc
individual members of society have a
duty to perform, and that is to protect
it against thieves or Pharisees. Such
obligation does not rest wholly with
the prosecuting officers and the crlm-
inal courts. The social cut, the refusal
of fellowship by honest, self-respecting
citizens-these are instrumentalltles
more potent against the enemies OF so
ciety than criminal laws. The greed of
political thieves and commercial high
waymen pays 40 heed to conscience
and fortifies itself against prison stripes
by debauching juries and employing
the shrewdest lawyers. But if boodllng
does not pay-if boodlers are sentenced
for life to the solitary confinement OF
social contumely and neglect-it will
mark the decline of a malady which
has impaired the health ofthe republic"
In this, it is pertinent to add, that
the Kansas paper strikes the note that
writers on municipal and other forms
of public corruption have struck, name
ly, that captains of industry" pro-
motors and grafters should be barred
from the society of honest men

June an unusually large number OF
passengers were hauled in spite of the
fact that it was commonly known the

month has been greater than during
the first week of June and n of the

as the season progressed.
