WRONG IMPRESSION ABROAD

Edward Bartlett, of Philadelphia, and
a son of Capt. George Bartlett. of West
Jersey avenue was called to Atlantic
City last Saturday on business. He re-
turned to his fathers house from the re-
sort in the Ills car, which was pretty
well crowded and in charge of motor
man Bowles and conductor Campbell.
The young man like lots of Others is
afflicted with stomach sickness when rid
ipg in closed cars. and this time it came
upon him with unusual severity. As
the car neared Fish creek he made his
way to the rear platform for fresh air
As the side door was open he leaned
forward, when sudden lurch such as
one is apt to experience in Suburban
cars, pitched him from the platform to
the ground, Edward landed, but on one
side of his face and on one shoulder. He
was picked up, rushed to his father
home and DIR. North responded to call
Mr.. Bartlett's face somewhat resembled
a grated raw meat sandwich and his
coat looked like anything but air and
light proof. The physician quickly re-
stored his patient to a presentable con
dition and is ready to correct the false
rtmors atloat as to the cause of the at
tack of illness. Mr.. Bartlett has never

team of Atlantic City. The first game
was won by Mt Pleasant. The score,
20-9. Excellent team work combined
with accurate shooting won the game.
The guards, Stevenson and Ware, defend
ed their goal in masterful style. They
are both experts at the passing game.
Capt Albor who has been out of the
game for several weeks, played the best
game of the season, at center. He out
played his opponent, Rupp, and made
many difficult goals from the center OF
the cage. Adams and Moore as forwards
playedotheir best game. Adams as usual
was all over the room. He was SO quick
ut times that he passed the entire oppos-
ing team aud made the goal himself.
Moore had his eye on the basket and did
his best shooting of the season. Petit.
Roberts, Knaucr and Rupp excelled for
the visiting team. Petit made the long
est shots in the second half that have
been seen in any game. The Rooters
Club was out in full force again with
their cheers and songs. No team could
