GAS COMPANY TO SPEND $751; 900 IN
IMPROVEMENTS
New Gas Holder, Machinery and
10000 Feet of New Gas Pipe

10000 Feet oil e Gas Pipe
The Five Mile Beach Gas company
is preparing to make extensive i'm
provements to its plant on Holly Beach
avenue. $75, 200 has been authorized
to be expended in increasing the
capacity and improving the service of
the plant. A gas holder with a capa-
city of 10O, 900 feet will be installed and
entirely new gas making machinery of
the latest approved type will replace
the old machinery nov in use, increas-
ing the capacity to over 800, 900 feet of
gas per day, or more than four times
the present capacity.
10000 feet of new gas pipe will be
laid extending the service to Wildwood
Crest and making a double circuit pipe
line over the entire island insuring a
continuous supply of gas at all times
and diminishing to a fractional point
the danger of clogged pipes and trying
hold ups in the service.
The company Is supplying a good
quality of gas and the service is giving
satisfaction in the most part to the con-
stantly increasing number of patrons.
Nearly every house in course oferection
now specifies gas piping throughout.
With the Improvements underway the
service should be without reproach.

WHERE EASTER VISITORS
WILL SEEK AMUSEMENT
What the Island has Provided TO
Entertain It's Guests
Over Easter
MANY INTERESTING POINTS TO VISIT

Many attractions have been prepar-
ed for the Easter season guests. Bakers
Theatre will have a grand opening
Friday and Saturday nights with a
big program of refined vaudeville from
the Keith circuit.
The Comique Moving Picture enter
tainment has some excellent films on
for this weeks exhibition on the board
walk.
The New Ocean Pier will probably
be open for inspection and the Casino
bowling alleys and skating rink will
be 10 full swing.
For Monday night two Easter dances
are scheduled. One at the North
Wildwood borough hall, the other a
musicale and dance, will be given at
Cedar Hall, Cedar avenue, Wild wood,
by the st. Simeon's Guild.
On Sunday a special children's
Easter program has been arranged by
the Lutheran church at the Wildwood
borough hall in the evening and the
Episcopal church will hold special
services both morning and night. The
Hollywood NJ. e. church, the Wild
wood Baptist church and the Holly
Beach Presbyterian church have also
arranged special Easter programs for
Sunday evening.
InIthe sightseeing tour of the island
the Easter visitor will want to visit
Wildwood Crest and note its most won
derful growth. The Crest is a monu-
ment of modern progressiveness and
thrift and an everlasting credit to Baker
Brothers who have founded and nour-
ished a collection of sand dunes and
frog ponds into a sturdy resort who's
name has been heard clear to the
Pacific coast and further. The Crest is
thel .EnotLess Town. of the island.
-@fo1iy Hencr-wruf-fS nsn.y
houses and stores and the new Penn
.sylvania railroad depot is of interest
and worth a careful tour. The Rio
Grande ven bridge is always a
point of interest.
Wildwood with its amusement piers
and big Improvements, its Sunset lake,
the flower show and its progressive
business centre always claims a full
share of attention. 1t is the heart of
the island and pumps blood and energy
in every direction.
North Wildwood with its two new
large hotels in course of construction,
its famous Ottens canal and boat build
ing establishment, the famous grabbing
and fishing groundsand the new $4,000
club house of the Wildwood Yacht
Club will draw scores of sight-seers.
Here cottages and buildings are going
up with startling rapidity and the
coming summer will see far greater
changes even than at present. The
North Wild wood Improvement COM
pany's tract which is being improved
and developed at great cost is a V
lation in what can be done by persis-
tent effort in q few months.

BEAR MEAT Ar WHITE HOUSE.

Last nights bear dinner at the White House was one Of series Gf more or less unique entertainments given in that hospitable mansion since MT. Roosevelt entered it. The Presi- dent believes in having good time, and forthwith proceeds. to have it in his own way and after his own fash ion, regardless.
 While individual Americans may entertain doubts of various kinds con corning the unalloyed delights of bear meat as the piece de resistance at a feast, it is hardly to be doubted that the goodly company thrusting it's legs beneath the presidential mahogany last evening was thoroughly pleased, if not actually and ecstatically happy To them we presume, the hot and smoking bear flesh recalled the wild- ness of the jungle, the proving of bobcats and other varmints, and campfire stories involving true recita- tions of events undreamed of in any nature fakers philosophy
 We do not know just how or why i bear meat is served at either formal dinner or beside a forest stream ! Whether it is partaken of boiled, fried. fricasseed, roasted or raw, we are unable to aver with accuracy. Our impression is that it is introduced into f the system. when in camp, in chunks extremely rare, if not absolutely an naturel. spartan simplicity marks | the proceeding, so we have been in- formed. the bowe knife being the only necessary implement employed in the 1 feeding, from grace to toothpicks, in- elusive
 However all that may be, we feel as sured that last nights festivities were conducted along expertly approved lines and balanced to that degree of nicety calculated to make glad the hunters heart That the flesh was hot and smoking" we feel assured That il
 was cooked to a point quite beyond
 the rules and regulations prevailing among strenuous sportsmen actually
 on the job, we suspect. That it was
 accompanied by other delicacies of 8
 more molIy-coddlish kind and gener-
 ousy mixed with dishes prescribed bl
 an effete civilization we could almost VOW. That the President would per init his guests to suspect a bear dime
 in Washington could by any stretcf
 of the imagination be compared to th' real thing. or seek to fasten in theil
 minds an idea that the state dining room wassto he mentioned in the sam'
 breath with Snake Creek or Brun Bottoms, in point of scenery or eS
 hilarating environment It falls no : within the scope of our fancy t imagine. Washington Herald.
