peror and his people as represented Il

The principal game yesterday was be-

The Sailors by defeating the Bisons got
first place. They Won it fair and square.
How long they will hold it depends ab-

Providence and Jersey City have in
years past captured the coveted flag. In
each case it has been done by superior
playing. Luck may change the tide of
victory in an ordinary game. but a whole

it properly belongs. whether at the top

heads the list at present, yesterday won
brilliant victory over Buffalo, whose
team has planted the championship flag

our home team in the first series and
landed it down near the bottom of the
list.

Fry were in the gathering and it is said

ASBURY PARK, May 8, 19O6.-The
Camp Meeting Association of Ocean
Grove is getting ready one of the best
summer programmes it has ever had.
The assembly will again be under the
direction of Mrs. Mabel Faraday presag-
ing series of meetings both useful and
entertaining. DR.. A. E. Ballard, the
dean, who is vice-president of the asso-
ciation, will lend material assistance.
Bishop Luther Wilson has already
been invited to preside at the opening,
and among the lecturers engaged are the
Rev. James William Marshall, Of Ocean
Grove; Miss NJ. E. Beardslee, Miss M.
B. Coles, of New York; Miss NJ M.
Grigg, of Brooklyn; the Rev. F. s. Da-
Wis. Of Kearny; Mrs. w. Robinson, of
Philadelphia, and Morris Ferguson, SUI
perintendent of the New Jersey Sunday
School Union.
May II has been fixed for the semi
annual meeting of the association mem
bers. It will be the important gathering
of the year, and is looked forward to
with more than usual interest because at
that time questions which have come up
with the resignation of Evangelist Chas.
Yatman. of Newark, as leader of the
young peoples meetings in the temple,
will be finally passed Upon. 1t is stated
by various members of the body that
successor will not be appointed in any
haste. DR.. Ballard says that for the
early part of the season at least the tenn
pie meetings will be conducted by vari-
GUS leaders, and from the showing made
at or near the close of the present season
selection viii be made.
In spite of these options, many all
ye,r residents Of the camp-meeting city,
who know well the ministerial members
of the governing body, predict that Mr..
Yatman will return. They say there is
dicker of some sort on and that two OF
three people will soon be eating humble
pie.' nm. Yatman, according to few
people, who have favorable sources Of
information, resigned after having it
made plain TO him that mis- salary would
not be increased and that his pet project
of building a new temple on the site OF
the old structure, in which he had served
for twenty-five years, would not have the
associations support. Long letters filed
with beautiful passages passed between
Mr.. Yatman and Bishop Fitzgerald, the
president of the association, but, never
theless, beneath this passive exterior
there is much agitation,

Merchants and pedestrians gener-
ally had good cause for complaint
regarding the great clouds of dust
on Smith and State streets yesterday
morning. The Public Service sprink-
ling car, which is supposed to keep
the dust down on streets where their
tracks are laid, did not appear until
1880 o'clock and then it, began to
rain. All the morning a high wind
w$ blowing and dust was SO thick at
tfhkes it was next to impossible to
see across the street, yet no sprink
1lng ass appeared. There was gross
negligence somewhere.
The people, instead of complaining
among themselves, should have noii-
fddl thfr city authorities of the con-
ditioH of affairs and there is little
doubt but that the Public Service
wotid have been brought to time.
