ATLANTIC CITY.



ATLANTIC CITY, November 5. 1906.
The question of moving the Boardwalk
further out toward tie ocean at the upper
section of the resort is again being agi
tated, and it may be done before spring
and its attendant crowds arrive. From St.
Charles place to Maine avenue the water
has filled in the beach with sand to such
an extent that the Boardwalk is rarely
anywhere near the water, and those who
like to promenade close to the waters edge
are hoping that the city will authorize the
move. About Heinz's Pier the Boardwalk
is nearly five hundred feet away from the
ocean. Those owning land in that section
of the city want to see the Boardwalk
moved oceanward because if this is done
they will be able to place many valuabl
building lots the market which have
been built for them by the action of tide
and wind.
There was a gathering of more than
hundred Baptist clergymen at the Hotel
Holmhurst Wednesday evening, where the
Baptist state convention held it's annual

The Hotel SheIburne closed Thursday
to admit of extensive repairs and altera-

of the purposed changes is the transfer
nation of the entire south wing of the
building into mammoth cafe and grille,
both upper and lower floors. One of the
reasons for this is that the hotel is nearly

Republican Meeting at Kensington.

Special Correspondence of The Star.
ROCKVILLE, Nd. November T. 1906
mass meeting in the town hall at Ken
sngton last evening wound up the repu5-
lican campaign in this county. 1t was
held under the auspices of the Kensington
Republican Club and was well attended.
The issues were discussed by Col. ]. Frank
Supplee of Baltimore and Messrs. John
Caper, Thomas c. Noyes and Brainard II.
Warner.
The various meetings held by the two
parties within the past ten days have done
much toward dispeHing the apathy that
was so apparent during the early part of
the campaign, and the indications now are
that the usual ofr-year vote will be polled
The republicans continue hopeful of giving
their candidate, Col Pearre. majority in
the county. The county, OF course, is nor
mally democratic and If the candidate of
that party carries the county 1t will be by
a very small majority. The difference will
probably not be $50 either way.
In view of the fact that only represent
alive is to be elected this year the counting
of the vote Tuesday night is expected to
be completed and the result in the county
and district known before midnight.

I'm the first place he's not needed,
and in the second place he's a lazy
loafer. The road must earn its keep.
General Cornish is sick of putting his
hand in his pocket every six months to
keep it out of bankruptcy. You are
enough Of a business man to know he
won't stand that sort of thing forever.

needs the money, but some ones got to

it, and that's a salary saved. l haven't
any personal feeling in the matter.
The fact that I don't like him, as it
happens. has nothing to do with it. If
he were my own brother he'd have to
get out"
Il can't see that one man more or
less is going to make such a differ

he intended should be an air of frank
good fellowship.

ing his arrival in Antioch.
"A Dan sought to dissuaC.e him.
but he was stubbornness itself. and
the latter realized that the only thing
to do was to let him alone and not
seek to control him.
After all, if he would be happier at
work. it was no ones affair but bis
own
1t never occurred to the Old convict
that pride might have to do With IT,,
stand Dan took in the matter.
He was wonderfully gentle and AT
fectiOnate, with a quaint, unworlU1y
simplicity that was rather pathetic.
His u anxiety was to please Dan. but
in spite Of this anxiety once u convic-
ton took possession of him he clung to
it with mistaken %tenacity in the face
of every argument his son could bri:.
to bear.
Under the inspiration of his newly
acquired freedom he developed in IN
expected ways. AS soon as lie felt that
his place In the shops was secure and
that he was not to be interfered with
he Joined the church. Its services oc-
cupied most Of his spare time. Every
Thursday night found him at prayc,
meeting. Twice each Sunday he weat
to church, and by missing his dinner
he managed to take part in the Sunday
school exercises. a social threw him
into a fiutter Of pleased expectancy.
Not content with what his church Of
fered, irrespective Of creed, he joined
every society in the place of a religious
or temperance nature and was a zeai-
GUS and active worker among such OF
the heather as flourished In Antioch.
There vas a stern Old Testament fla
o to his faith. He would have drag
ged the errlng from their peril by main
strength and have regulated their NOR
ais by legal enactments. Those of the
men with whom he came In contact in
the shops treated him with the utmost
respect partly or his own account and
partly because Of Dan.
Half OF all he earned he gave to IT,,
church. The remainder OF his slender
income he divided again into two equal
parts. One Of these he used for his
personal needs, the other disappeared
m~ysteriously. He was putting IL bS

them short.

In the matter, he would have begged
