Special Correspondence OF The Star.

| ATLANTIC CITY, September j.
I@OV. FORTS closing of the places
u where liquid refreshment is dis
~ pensed on Sundays has not injured
the resort itself in any degree. The only
| persons to feel it were those who conduct
| the said places where liquid Tefreshment
| Is dispensed, and. of course, they were
| somewhat shorter than customary IN
their receipts. Most of the residents feel
| that it is a mistake to close u. the town.
| and they will endeavor TO have this
! trouble remedied when the legislature is
In session again. They all believe in To-
cal option, or home rule, a . If they
could get that privilege from the state
| it would mean that liquor could be sold
on Sunday at certain hours.
| Atlantic City is enjoying excellent
| weather 1t is warm again. and the cold
| spell that followed the northeast storm
| that prevailed for three or four days
| has disappeared. September is always one
| of the most delightful months at the
shore. There is not such jam of peo-
| pie as in August. and there is room
| enough to get about and take a full
| breath. There is large crowd of people
| here for over Labor day next MONDAY.
| There will be quite an exodus TUESDAY
| morning and that will signify the clos
| ing of the season for some of the smaller
| hottest. But the season will not be at an
| end by any means. for ne.rly all the
large hotels are filed and have reserVa-
tionS for all the month of September.
This month will more than make up for
! what was lost through the cool weather
! in the early part of July.
| The bathing at this time is the finest
| of the whole year. The temperature of
| the air and water are about on a par,
| and one does not get cold as in the mid
| die of August Almost every one at the
shore bathes now, while in summer, IN
spite of the great crowds, but a small
percentage of the visitors find their way
| into the ocean with anything Ike reSu-
| larity.
