Special 10 THE EVENING JOURNAL.
BOWERS BEACH, Feb. 1S-The
king crab industry is threatened along
the Delaware, and while it is a pro-
ftable enterprise. persons with sensi-
tive olfactory organs are rejoicing at
the prospect OF no more shore attrac-

There lies low and narrow mound,
Which children softly gather round,
And strangers trace the well-worn

OF whom her pharmacies often say

Nor paint the picture of her form and

rare.
