Atlantic City. Oct. 12 (speciall.-The time Is not
far distant when there will be continuous ocean
promenade from the Inlet 10 LongpOrt. and this
time is at hand than many persons
imagine. The city OF VentnOr. which was tncor-
porated only three four years ago. is taking
lively interest in the development of Its ocean
front and, believing that OF the strongest
attractions for the purpose of development Of that
part of Absecon Island is the building of a board
walk plans have been perfected for the extl nsion
OF the twenty-feet-wide espanade which was
erected year ago last spring. The new part OF
the boardwalk will extend space of 2,S00
feet, or from the present trolley station at Vent
nor TO its western NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. avenue
South Atlantic City has already voted money
with which to build a boardwalk. and II is believed
now that this will be started in the near future
as to connect with the Ventnor end Of the walk
when that shall be completed. The borough OF
Longport has been discussing the question Of con-
structins boardwalk and 1t ia practically assured
that the people OF that place will vote the aP-
preparation as South Atlantic City has
constructed its boardwalk to connect with the
Veutnor promenade Atlantic City already enjoys
the distinction OF having the longest and greatest
boardwalk in the world but II the two sister re-
sorts west OF Ventnor build and connect their
boardwalks It will make continuous promenade
OF more than ten miles in length
