CORNERS MUST NOT
BE SQUARE, BUT ROUND

The man who delights in seeing new
concrete curbs and sidewalks should pay
a visit to the upper section of Shore
Road, including the lower section of Alb
secon. He will be repaid for his time,
if he does not mind looking at the middle
Of the street while inspecting. Howard
E. Ott figures chiefly in performing the
operations in that section and he has
enough contracts in his pocket to keep
his force Of men busy until the weather
becomes too cold for further work.
Borough Engineer Clark has instigat-
ed radical improvement in the ordnance
governing the contract for installing new
curbs all corners at street inter
sections shall be made on f0ur-feet
radius. This will add greatly to the ap-
pearance of the street from end to end,
and will also necessitate tearing away
quite number of corners for the inn
proved ones. viz: at the Burkard corner,
Washington avenue; Woodland avenue;
Merton and at several other places.
Radius corners have for some years
been made obligatory in large cities and
the enhanced appearances justify ex-
pense and work. By the insertion Of
this clause in the new ordinance Con
tractor p B. Adams may find extra work
in store when he reaches the corners
mentioned.

ABSECON HEARS PREACHER
LECTURER ON INDIA

On Sunday evening in the Abseeon NJ.
E. church, before large and represen-
tative audience, Rev. Mr.. Webb, who
labored as missionary in India for Is
years, from 1880 to 1898, delivered an ex-
ceedingly interesting and comprehensive
lecture on India. Describing his route
of travel from New York by steamer
through the Straits Of Gibralter into the
Mediterranean sea, visiting Mt. Sinai,
down the Suez canal thence to Bombay,
Calcutta, Shalapur and many other cities
where Immediately after his arrival dur
ing the weeks he taught school and
preached and taught the natives on re-
ligious lines on Saturdays and Sundays.
He dwelt at length on the geographical
and statistical information appertaining
to that country and showed to certain
extent how their former sacrilegious wor
ship and religion paved the way for the
acceptance of the Christian religion. He
explicitly made clear what a predica-
ment they were plunged into when
drought came resulting in famine. He
exhibited several designs of idols and
images of monkeys and elephants wor-
shipped by natives of India

AN OUTRAGE

When the Atlantic and Suburban Troll

vile at 5.07 on Thursday afternoon.
reached point close to Seaview avenue
on the Shore Road car No. | met it
front to front. Either one must have
passed light at the turnout. When
the cars came to standstiH there be-
gan an argument that lasted exactly
twelve minutes. The crew of each ear
protesting that the other had passed
a light and should back up to the turn
out. Finally No. 9's crew, for the sake
of the weary passengers. gave in and
backed perhaps a half mile and permit
ted No. l to pass on; not, however
until several passengers had left the cars
in disgust and started to walk to their
destination.
The young fellows in the crews may
find considerable enjoyment in playing
with each other in this way, but TO the
people who ride it is costly nuisance
Too much time is consumed in thrnouts
as rule without any entirely unnec-
essary delays of this kind. 1t is hoped
the road manager will see that the argl-
ment is settled to the satisfaction OF
the travelling public.

Helfrich and Channels Given Good Support

The final game of the season, played
last Saturday between Pleasantville and
West Side, was won by the home team,
the score being OF. The visitors came
over forty strong to put dent in our
reputation. Their ambition was to beat
the team that held Hammonton down
but sometimes things do 60 wrong with
the best Of regulated aggregations. Chan
nels was certainly there with an arm
and our fielder, Nelson, was also on
deck, for it was he who put the game
on ice in the lst inning by smashing
out a twoIbagger with bases full. The
lst inning gave Pleasantville five runs
and the 9TH gave West Side four, but
outside Of these big innings things went
along smoothly. Batting ON either side
netted nothing of any consequence, as
both Helfrich and Channels were mas
tiers in the box.
Many people wanted to know how it
was that our team was so changed
around Barry Sanders, Brownie" and
smith were the only ones who played
regular positions. By looking at the
lineup one can we'll see under what
difficulties the team was laboring. Five
of the regular members failed to show
up for unaccountable reasons. This
shows the two factions and also the
! good playing material which makes our
Pleasantville team. Those who didn't
show up may not be the best ball play
ers in town. They deliberately weak
ened the team by not notifying the
other members so that others could be
secured to replace them. At such a
juncture such players as were in the
crowd had. 70. be called up. With a
! team like -this 'Pleasantville made a
good showing, not because the newly
added ones did it, but because the good
players from the regular team were
present They did it with the little
help from outside.
This fact may be accountable for the
good collection received from such a
small crowd. A much larger collection
would have resulted if the weather. had
not been chilly as the fans with the big
pocketbooks were kept away. Now it
comes to a question: Do the people, as
a whole, like to see the good players
play team or do they appreciate or
dislike the playing of very few? The
| big collection last Saturday certainly
shows how the people stand. To be
frank and to voice the sentiment Of the
people, who like baseball played by
heady players, it would be far better If

such inharmonius element be gotten
rid Of.
Next year we are going to have
team and good one, too. The people
want it and they are going to back it
up. The team wants new grounds.
The people are going to help get it,
but the team will have to make good.
Through The Press we must thank
heartily all of those in town who have
aided us and helped the team during
this season, which proved to be one of
few defeats and many victories. 1t
has shown what team can do with
out coach, manager and. at times, non
support. We must bid you farewell
with the hope of seeing you all again
next year in our new Base Ball Park.

school sessions at the Park avenue estab-

have peen arming themselves with
stones, air rifles, etc, and making on
slaughts on the window glass in the
building. This wickedness is going to be
stopped and the parents of the boys may
as well sound warnings, for if their of

dealt with. The Board has decided to
offer reward for information that will
lead to the arrest of the terrors. Cards
to this effect have been placed in the

Organization Victory; Crawford for Mayor

The direct primary system, that sys-
tenn which gives the people the right to
make their own nominations, was tried
out ON Tuesday. 1t was indeed priv
ilege of the highest value and import
auce to qualified voters and, while it is
not the only means by which candidates
may be named for office, it is undoubt-
edly powerful and effective, as the re
suits IN this County Atlantic City III
particular-will show.
The voting in Pleasantville and in fact
at every County precinct was very hight.
About the only local interest dinuseu
was that of the contest Tor Mayor g
the Borough DIR. j. Ii. North was Deat-
en- for a fourth nomination by druggist
Thomas f. Crawford. Strange to say,
neither candidate exhibited any great de-
gree of keenness for the preferment,
hence the voting was somewhat compl-
mentary. 1t is very evident that II II.
North had worked at this time as III
the past he would have run up his Has
to within a few votes OF those gwen his
opponent. but he exhibited devll-may
care spirit and several OF his political
enemies worked on the situation.
At late hour, Monday morning, he
publican leaders determined to prevent
the nomination of Joseph +. Weeks, VINO
had strong desire to wear the toga OF
a Justice of the peace. He had filed ms
nomination documents as Democratic
candidate and the members OF his faith
let the candidacy go at that. Weeks ls
not altogether popular in all quarters
of this town, SO the Republicans settied
ON G. William Braun as candidate On
their ticket, by virtue OF the sucker
privilege. The expedient was success
fully carried out and Weeks was over
whelmingly defeated, although the WIN
ner did not have walkover, as +. a,
Chase, colored, pushed him pretty haru
in the lower precinct. :,
