Young Maiden Gives At
IantiC City One
Shock.

ATLANTIC CITY. Nov. 14-Miss Elsie
Chesney, a member Of the younger So
ciaI set Of Trenton. caused boardwalk
stroners to have a chill on Thursday.
when she started out on the strand in
d neat, black bathing suit. and capered
on the sand for ten OF fifteen minutes,
totally unmindful of the chilly north
west wind that was blowing and caus-
ing prOmenaoers on the boardwalk 10

She did not, apparently, know there
was any wind blowing. She ran up and
down for a few minutes, and then sat
down in the sand TO play with two or
three children, who were digging while
wrapped up I'm overcOats and gloves,
and leggings. Miss Chesney then ran 70
the water edge, waited Tor a Dig
breaker. and plunged ia.
She swan about for ten OF fifteen min
utes, and emerged shaking the water
from her with cheeks aglow from the
cold and the exercise. Sine did not tarry
long, Tor the wind cut deep through
those wet bathing clothes. Sne gave a
merry laugh, and started on a trot up
South Carolina avenue 10 the Hotel Iro-
quois.
Spectators in a boardwalk pavilion
we're greatly amused at couple OF liz
tie chaps at play on the beach yester-
day. The lads had dug quite deep
hole high on the beach, where it was
quite dry. One chap climbed into the
hole. and insisted upon his companion
filling in the sand. IN "a few minutes
the little one was buried almost 10 ms
shoulders, with the sand packed tight
about him.
Then the other chap conceived the
idea that il would be great joke to
run OF. and he did. The buried lad
protested ia long and lusty walls, but
the other only ran the harder III the
other direction. The cries of the buried
lad aroused the sympathy OF a big-hedrt-
ed giant of more than SIX feet ana 20 or
more pounds of avOIrdupoIs, who went
down from the boardwalk and rescued
