Passengers .rified But None Hurt.
fhe ale er, Ulrica which left King
fseG. .mington, last Saturday night
1 .sas run into just before reaching
abroad bridge by the steamer Brady
ne which had ust-passed thru the
draw. The crash was terrific and put the
Ulrica nearly on her beams end and
turned her all the way around inthe creek.
A hole was stove in her bow large enough
for a man to crawl thru, and in fifteen
minutes enough water flowed into her
hull to sink her, but not until she was
run a ground near the mouth of Brandy
wine creek.
After the Brandywine passed thru the
draw Capt. Charles Moncrief gave a
signal for the Ulrica to go to the port side,
or left side. Capt. VIM. Grace, never
answered the signal and kept the Ulrica
to the starboard, or right side, until with
in a short distance OF the Brandywine,
when the Ulrica was turned to port
across the bow of the Brandy wine.
When a collision was seen to be unavoid-
able the engines on both boats were re-
versed, but too late. The bow OF the
Ulrica was crushed in like an egg shell by
the swift gliding Brandywine, and sound
ed like a falling house.
The passengers we're greatly excited,
one woman fainting. Some of the crew
rushed OH deck with their luggage, ex-
pecting the boat to sink. After the
Ulrica was beached, the passengers went
OH the Brandywine and were landed in
Wilmington. Some came home late at
night ON a lannch they hailed while pass
ing King Street wharf. Others stayed
all night and came home in B. w. Hurff's
launch which run on Sunday.
The tug Emily has been running in the
Ulrica's place all the week.
On Tuesday the Ulrica was raised and
towed to Cramps slip yard, Philadelphia,
for repairs.

which go with it. They lost it by one

elected Harry E. Hart in the West Ward,
Salem, to fill the Wescott vacancy, over
Mr.. Treen, but also Freeholders in Elsin-
boro and democratic ~Pittsgrove, making
the Board it stand nine Republicans to
four Democrats.

Freebooter from Elsinboro for nine years,

Pleasure seekers at Hollenbeck park
sustained a shock yesterday afternoon
and for time there was an indication
the entire assembly would desert the
place in panic, under the belief that
in their midst was squad of asylum
breakers.
The drama began when a dozen men,
apparently sane, selected grassy
spot, reasonably free from trees and
situated int the heart of the park, and,
after Numbering some fine light fish
ing tackle, equipped with expensive
reels, deliberately began casting for
fish in the grass.
The proceedings attracted the atten-
ton of the children at first. But after
these noticed that no fish were forth
coming from the green turf, the an
glers patiently continued to wind in
the slack and cast again, with every
sign of keen interest and occasional
grunts of exultation, as if some splen-
did trophy of lake or stream had been
caught.
Then the little ones ran away. The
news spread rapidly, and in jiffy
the entire neighborhood was out in
full force. The crowds surrounded the
fishermen at a respectful distance and
continued watching. The same progress
continued for many minutes with no
apparent results, save signs Of oc-
casional satisfaction on the part of
the casters.
This was too much for the curiosity
of little dirty faced boy of not more
than IL years. He marched right up
