The matter Of securing names has been
carried ON very quietly and is now be-

out who In behind the anti-sa1oon agi-
tatiOn have failed far, but signers
have been secured to the remOnstrance.
That much is a certainty.

MOUNT CLEMENS.

The mineral waters of Mount Clemens
have established their reputation upon a
firm and lasting foundation Their me.
dicinal virtues, and the numerous and
wonderful cures effected by their Judi
cious use. are marvellous and almost be-
yond comparison.
They are the strongest mineral waters
in use, and are secured from deep wells
frequently referred to as springs. The,
range in depth from 500 to 1900 feet
AMI the. deeper the well the stronger is
the mineral water obtained; but the in
creased strength is principally in sodium
common salD.
The first we'll was drilled in 1855 by
a company organized for the purpose
of prospecting for oil.
The original company drilled nearly
100 feet and then abandoned the hope
of securing oil probably because of an
insufficient capital to continue longer).
However they ascertained that the water
in their deep we'll was rich in salt and
afte. considerable delay a new company
was organized and commenced the manu-
facture of salt in large quantities.
But they were never able to make it
commercial success. because of the
large quantities of other minerals IT,
cont tanned. it's dark color and the poor
quality of the salt manufactured.
Very fortunately, the medicinal virtues
of this valuable mineral water were dis
covered while the manufacture of SAT-
was in progress.

Historic Colonial Beach is on the verge
of boom which 1t is predicted Will class
it as equal to Atlantic City in few years.
1t is rumored that a syndicate of Wash

of a modern hotel to attract the fashion
able set in the early spring or late fall.
1t has been only within the last few
years that the best people of Washington
have recognized the merits and possible
ties Of this resort, and now there is a
rush for cottages and building sites. The
demand for cottage and hotel sites has
caused the Colonial Real Estate Company
of Washington D. c.. to offer the Brady
tract in building lots. and already it
has propositions from parties who desire
to build hotels and boarding houses in
order to accommodate the increasing num-
Der of patrons of the beach.
1t is said the Brady tract in the north
west section of the township is the most
beautiful spot of the whole beach front.
and the demand for lots in this section
seems to confirm this statement

CAPE MAY. n. j., June Is. 1908.
The active social summer season at this
resort has been opened. with prospect
of being one of the best in the history OF
the place. The cottage colony is nearly
complete and the hotels are beginning
to fill up with guests, and a large num-
Der of WashingtOnians are here, compar-
ing them with those who have come
from the National capital in preceding
seasons. All through the winter there has
been active work in preparing for the
present season, and great number OF
improvements have been made by the
municipal authorities. by private individ-
uals and by the United States govern
ment The municipal authorities have
expended end are expending about $780,
600 this year upon the increase of its
water works and water supply and In
the construction of more sewers. which
complete the thoroughly modern hygienic
system which was inaugurated here three
years ago. and which has cost about
$3OOOOO. In other ways the beach drive
has been improved. public pavilions are
being completed on the beach front. and
in line with this spirit the local citizens
are attempting to make the resort look
like modern place. The United States
government is also spending its million
and a quarter dollars upon building the
channelway into the newly made harbor
which has been constructed by private
individuals at a cost of nearly million
dollars. and " hich covers. an area OF
about 500 acres.
The Cape May Golf Club has been
opened for the summer season. and the
links are in a splendid condition. They
cover eighty acres of ideal golf grounds.

pied by Henry Clay when he was in

The famous Tug-of-War hill. which has
been the terror Of motorists with any

Howland's men and dynamite have brok-
en- it up and moved it in piecemeal across
the bridge. where several cars have back
somersaulted and used it to fill the deep
hollow of the approach. A heavy re-
tanning wall is being built on the side
of the ravine, so that theonce difficult
and dangerous piece of road has become
an easy. well protected incline leading to
the bridge at the foot Of Silver Cascade
and swinging gracefully around the point
of the mountain.
The Notch road is receiving a lot of
further Improvement besides the aboli-
ton of Tug-of-War HILL The lower sec

tive automobile and good roads enthu-

In the heart of Crawford Notch import
ant work has been done under the direc-
ton Of the state engineer ana of George
D. Rowland of the Crawford. who for
years has had in charge that difficult
three miles of road between the Gate of
the Notch and the site of the famous Will
ley House avalanche.
With these various pieces OIL road
making finished the facilities for motor
travel will be vastly bettered and will
in fact make the region about the most
available of any mountain region in the
country. That this is appreciated is evil
denced by the fact that more than 800
cars toured the region last season with
a very small record of accidents.
1t is only very recently that the auto
mobile was welcomed in the White Noun
tains. A very few years ago the motor
list was persona non grata oall except
a very few progressive residents and no
tel managers. But now with a wecona-
and the best accommodations everywhere.
the motorists have come to realize that
instead of this region representing all
that is unattainak,e and in no way un-
comfortable in motoring IL is without
equal f., the east for ease, comfort and
beauty.
One of the minor conveniences that
count for much to those on long tours
is a new repair shop at the Mount " ash
ington garage. 1t is commodious and
we'll equipped with electric-power latnes
and everything else needed for serious
jobbng.
Next to the new garage in the New
York Club house of the 4. c. A. this is
believed to be the largest general garage
in America. Strange IT is to stand in
the entrance of a garage accommodating
400 cars and see, as one often can in the
spring and fall, a wild deer browsing in
tine virgin wood a few hundred feet away.
