A trustworthy way of gathering
FUNDS for the church Ia little at a time)
has been adopted by residents of An
glesea: That of supplying neighbors
with eatables on a certain day of the
week. On Tuesday, Mrs. Anderson, of
4th d Penna. avenues, had a very fine
supply of soup, and on Thursday even
ing, Mrs. Corson furnished ice cream.
The proceeds to defray the running eX-

Richards is occupied by families in
turn of employees at the Philadelphia
city hall.
GWhen passing by Leedom cottage,
l4th and Pacific avenues, the marked
improvement, not only of the cottage
itself, but ofthe surroundings, is notice
able, and speaks well of the industry
and energy of the tenant.
Wildwood has good railroad service
throughout the year. During the sum-
mer season it has the best train service
the Pennsylvania Railroad is able to
give, which the travelling public knows
is excellent. y
Constant and careful attention has
made the lawn aside of John Murnin's
residence, on First Avenue, q pleasing
sight. One would hardly believe it
possible to have such even and dense
growth of grass at the shore.
j. J. File, of Columbia Cottage, has
improved the lot, 50x10O, adjoining the
cottage, with flower and vegetable
patches, the bushes and woods nearby
making a marked contrast and remem-
bering that the spot on which the cot
tage stands was as wild looking, plainly
shows what improvements can be
made. During the %sojourn of the
mayors of the seaside coast, he had a
novel display of flags and remnants in
their honor.
Fishing has been very good all the
week Except stormy Friday. The
boats were well patronized and all were
we'll pleased with their catches.
On Friday the Ocean City, with a
goodly number of fishermen, went out
but had to return, being stuck on the

their cottage on Fourth avenue and
are enjoying their s~ojourn here very
much as they have done for a number
of years.
Electric light is acknowledged to be
in this AEGEAN indispensable luxury and
of great value to any locality where
used there are no lights superior to
those furnished Wildwood.
The Weldy cottage is occupied by
Mrs. Weldy and family. Miss Mary
Scott, who has been seriously ill, came
with them and is much benefited by
the good sea air. Her friends are as
much pleased as herself.
Mrs. Hewitt, the light house keepers
wife's new store is now completed on
First avenue, near Central, and well
stocked.
The beach near the life saving sta
ton, is occupied by tents, erected by
glassblowers from M1llville.
Sundays northeast storm made it
rough on the water and the numerous
captains of sail boats, who had wealth
cred previous gales, decided it would
be a wiser thing to let their boats re-
main anchored at the Inlet than to
risk the fury of the wind and the waves.
The rain came down IN torrents nearly
all day long and the several hundred
exc~ursionists could do nothing better
than remain indoors at the numerous
hotels. and console each other over a
fisherman's luck. To say the least 1t
was a great disappointment, but every
one of the visitors went home deter
mined to make up for lost time during
the next six weeks.
Sylvester Faddis, the veteran Penn
.sylvania railroad conductor between
Philadelphia and Harrisburg, Pa, and
