CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE
j. EaOs Ray Esq Visits Democratic
Friends

For a short time yesterday Mr. j.
Enos Ray, Democratic candidate for
Congress from this district, visited
this city, and had a talk with some of
the local county leaders.
While he is not at all sanguine over
the prospects in Anne Arundel, in
view of the fact that the regulars
under DR.. George Wells, are strongly
backing Charles II. Stanley, yet he
is thoroughly satisfied at the outlook
of carrying the district by a comfort
able majority.
Anne Arundel is regarded as a
stronghold for Stanley, and if large
vote is polled It is estimated that the
county will give a majority of about
200 for him.

SEASIDE SIFTINGS
What The Wild Waves Are Saving At
ArundeIs0n. The BAY

No cookee, no Arundelee. said
a family from Alabama who were oc<
cupying cottage on the Point at
Arundel-on-tne- Bay.
They brought a cook with them.
but she did not like the place, as
her best man" could not come to see
her often enough, and she left the
Southern family cookless. Being
from the South, and disliking to do
their own work, which they were
compelled to do, and not being able
to secure cook in Annie Rannel"
county, they packed up and left.
The high seas, heavy surf and
strong wind necessitated the moving
of the launches owned by Arundelites
back into the creek last night to
save them from being dashed to
pieces.
Arundelon-the- Bay is an ideal spot
for health and happiness. Life is
worth while living there. If you are
upset in canoe, now and then. The
vegetable man brings the freshest
Anne Arundel vegetables, melons,
canteloupes to your door every morn
ing; the milk man brings cream and
the sweetest and freshest Of milk,
and at night the ice cream man
beings you frozen sweetness.ir hunks.
He has pc sch cream that is licious,
frozen custard, lemon and orange
ices and ice cream.
The ice cream man is Stephen
Gross, colored, a fixture at Arundel
on-the- Bay. Stephen is a rel down
South, "befo de wah" darhey. He
knows everybody at Arundel AMI
everybody knows him. He has a fash
ion of calling out his commodities
something like this: "I.c-e- Scream
your last chance to get cooled OF
tonight; won't be round dis way no
moh; come git yo cream while &c
freezah is cole" ETC., etc. He some
times sells good quantity, but often
his visits are so early after dinner,
his customers are few.
A little four-year old at Arundel
who has heard Stephen Gross call out
his wares calls him Scream
ing Gross" She can't say Stephen, "
and the screaming is a contraction
for Stephen.
Miss Florence Childs, of Annapo-
lis, has been visiting her sister-in-law.
Mrs. Roland Childs, for several days
at the latter's cottage on the Beach
and Chestnut avenue.
Miss Virginia Abbott, of Wash.
iugton, is visiting her grandfather
at 1.-The Gloucester" cottage.
Bailiff Tyler, of Arundel-on- the
Bay. has been warning some three or
four young men that bathing in their
birthday clothes in a creek back of
Arundel is strictly prohibited by law.
1t is believed the offenders took
warning and will not repeat the
offense.
Mr.. and Mrs. PhiIander johnson,
who took the trip to Washington yes
terday, remained at Hotel Maryland
over night, as the bay was too stormy
to return last night in the launch.
Mrs. Roy Shaver is entertaining at
her mothers cottage her friend, Miss
Bessie Bonney, of Washington.
A party from Arundel-on-the Bay
drove to town last night to witness
the play "Ishmael" at the Colonial
Theare, and returned by moonlight.
Mr.. Speed left Arundel last night
for business trip to New York.
Mr.. Arthur Lee Bosley makes two
trips daily to and from Annapolis,
connecting with the Short Line for
Baltimore. Mr.. Bosley has one of
the most commodious and handsome
launches at Arundel.
