One hundred years aga the fastest

Great North road in England There
the York mail coach tore along at the

AT ATLANTIC CITY.
End Of Close Season Brings CrozCds
of HuntSmen.

Atlantic City. n. J., Sept. (SpeciaD.-The salute
to September from hundreds of guns is still rever
berating over the island, and there IS still hot
work along the firing line. that extends for miles
back OF the city. The open season for mud hens,
reed and rail birds began on Thursday. and crowds
OF spoTtsnen arrived here for the opening day from
all parts of the country. The game is reported
more plentiful and in better condition than for
many Years. This is attributed to the recent law
limiting the number OF birds to thirty day
each gun While it is an open secret that the law
is frequently violated by the employment Of dunn
mics by wealthy sportsmen, the slaughter has
been reduced fully 50 per cent and the birds have
greatly multiplied.
The last great crowd Of the summer season is
gathering now. and Will remain until Tuesday It
IS the last holiday crowd. and it will be enormous
IN proportions. The trains have been coming in
crowded since last evening and are running in sec
tons to-day, and Will continue 10 do so tomorrow
and Monday. Labor Day is always a big holiday
at Atlantic City, and this year it will be bigger
than ever. The Hotel Rudolf alone has booked
seven hundred guests, and every spare room in the
