NEWPORT. R. l.. July %. 1908.
,, Shall Bellevue avenue have liquor H..
cense? That has been the paramount ques
tion of the week among the cottage colony.
The matter arose through the rivalry of
merchants. For two years New York con-
Germ has been doing liquor order busi-
ness here by telegraph through an Office on
Bellevue avenue without having license
The excuse set up was that license could
not be secured On that thoroughfare, which
Is supposed to confer great advantages as
to location. OF course, 1t is only bottler's
and a wholesalers permit that Is under
consideration. but the feeling Is that the
granting of such would soon let down the
bars to a retailer. One reason why the
cottagerS have fought the project of a new
hotel here Is because it would bring an
open bar to Bellevue avenue. When the
late Warren Leland ran the Ocean House
the barkeepers were always in possession
of a long list of society youth to whom
nothing must be sold. with or without
money The list was respected. too bu:
when the hotel was burned. the summer
contingent resolved that the temptation Of
such convenient resort should be pern1a-
nently abolished, and for six years the de-
termination has held good.
Mrs. William Astor is back. also Mrs.
Cornelius Vanderbilt, sr, but Col John
Jacob AStor will not reach here until the
fact, for the AstOr cup races. He is not
very fond of Newport. nor is Robert Goelet,
who, after leasing villa for the season
has decided to remain only through the first
week in August. But Fred w. Wander
bits dislike of Newport amounts to an
aversion. Just now here for the first time
in five years with a palatial villa at his
disposal he will remain only a week and
live aboard his yacht at that.
William R. TraVers is preparing for
housewarming al his bark covered bunga-

Special Correspondence of The Star.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., July %. 1905.
The season of 1905 here ranks with the
most prosperous years of the past and will
outstrip them all. The evidence of this. the
accumulated funds in the banks, Is incon-
trovertible.
The town today is filled up with people
from almost every other city within ra-
dius of several miles. Travel to the shore
over both the Reading and Pennsylvania
roads is very heavy>and In excess of last
year. The Boardwalk last night was one
solid. moving mass of humanity. and as the
mammoth procession moved slowly under
the thousands of electric lights it presented
a brilliant spectacle. The weeks bathing
was by far the heaviest of the season ana
the temperature of the water just right.
Largely owing to the efforts OF the prop
erty owners and proprietors Of the Grand
Atlantic, Wiltshire. Islesworth, Belmont
and other hotels Virginia avenue Is now
nighted at night by festoons of electric
lamps in the same manner as Is the Board
walk The illumination will continue
throughout the season. and this Is the first
time that an avenue here has been lighted
by private subscription.
The dining hall of the Hotel Savoy, in
Chelsea. Is one OF the prettiest In Atlantic
City. It commands magnificent View OF
the sea and Is large enough to seat over
800 guests. The table appointments and
cuisine are OF the best.
Hamilton Hall. one of the most attfac-
tive hotels ON the Chelsea beach. Is this
year under the management Of 8. F. Simp-
purchased the hosiery. This hotel Is well
appointed and Handsomely equipped and
has every prospect OF an excellent season.

Georgia avenue, is an up-to-date house, en-
toying well-deserved season Of prosperity.

Bolig corner opposite Weis' store.
Mr.. Springer comes well recon-
mended as a frst-class workman
and a gentleman in business. This
town has been long time without
an experienced man in this line of
work. AS Mr.. Springer has locat-
ed here we would like to see him
succeed in a town of this size. We
hope the people too will give the
new man a trial and learn if he is
as represented. -SeAinsgyoOe Times.
Mr.. Springer formerly did watch
repairing at Millville and later in
Bloomsbury. For the past year or
more he has been located at Cata-
wissa at which place he has retain
ed possession of his store room and
to which he will return early next
summer.

Sunday Playday For Toilers Says Bishop

In a sermon on Child Labor"
at St. Peters Cathedral, Scranton,
Sunday morning, Rt. Rev. M. J.
Hoban, Bishop of Scranton, came
out unequivocally for permitting
working boys to play athieticganes
on Sunday.
After picturing the hardships
many Of the boys of the community
are put to in the mines and mills,
day and night, six days. a week, he
caustically criticized those who pro-
test against them enjoying the
Sabbath in harmless recreation, and
added:
"I say let them play base ball or
foot ball or any other kind of ball
to their hearts content. The good
Lord will be pleased to see them do
it, l aver, providing they are good
boys"

A Possibility.

The spot on the sun just now
which is causing so much concern
among astronomers and people in
general suggests the following:
If this little world tonight
Suddenly should fall through space
In Kissing, headlong light,
Shrivelng from its face,
AS it falls into the sun,
In an instant every trace
OF the little crawling things
Ants, philosophers and lice,
Cattle, cockroaches and Kings,
Beggars, millionaires and mice,
Men and maggots-all as one
AS it falls into the sun
Who can say but at the same
Instant from some planet far
A child may watch us and exclaim,
"See the pretty shooting star!'

Rt. Rev. Ethelbert Talbot, D. D. a,
will visit Bloomsbury next Sunday
and will administer the rite of con-
frmation to class at St. Paul. S
Church in the morning. He will
visit Catawissa in the afternoon and
Berwick in the evening.
This is probably Bishop Talbot S
last official visit here, as he has
elected to preside in the other part
of the divided diocese, and his juris-
diction will cease as soon as the
new Bishop is consecrated.

to revise his Santo Domingo pro-

proposes to send to the Senate a

when such treaty reaches the
