its food.
The little Episcopal Church of st.
Peters. at Galilee, is apparently only
being saved from destruction by a
miracle. The foundations under the
affairs in the east wing have been
pounded away by the beating of the
sea. leaving the building supported on
three puncheons. Some of the congre-
cation surveyed the ruin done by the
waters to-day and then knelt before
the building, and, with the salt spray
flying in their faces, offered prayers TO
save the building.
The lifesavers near Galilee and Mon
mouth Beach were not able to patrol
the ocean front because of the terrific

the bulkheads and dug great caverns in
the Welding sand. The men are con-

persons. Captain Greene, in charge of
the lifesavers, said to-day he had never
seen so violent a storm in his life as
lifesavcr.
Persons living in Galilee, Monmouth
Beach and Normande were startled
this afternoon by an unusual sight,
when the waters OF the Atlantic and
the South Shrewsbury River, thou
sand feet apart, met with n noise that
could be heard a mile distant. Persons

time narrowly escaped being carried

pounded 10 pieces by the surf. The
lawn in front Of the house has been

are being subjected TO a tremendous
pounding. Several miles Of the board
walk al Long Branch are undermined
and the structure will soon buckle and
be devoured by the ocean.

Killed on Way to Picnic.

]. A. Coscley aged about as, of near
Woodbine, and Nathan Snowden. aged
about az, of near the same place, both
colored, were instantly killed Saturday
afternoon about one O'Clock. supposedly
by being struck by the west bound Balti-
more and Ohio way train, between Bar
tholows and Monrovia. They are said to
have been on their way to the picnic of
the colored people held near New Market
and known as the Gallean Fishermen's
picnic. Sheriff Conard was notified Of the
accident and went to the scene, accom-
panied by Justice Posey, as coroner.
Deputy Sheriff Jones and DR.. B. o.
Thomas also made the trip. 1t is said
that the negroes were intoxicated.
AT Molesworth's store, at Bartholows,
it was stated that about 100 negroes got
off passenger train to go to the picnic.
Many OF them took the road to the
grounds while others went down the rail-
road. Reports state that a number of
those who went down track were intoxi-
Gated and it is believed that the two who
we're killed were under the influence of
liquor.

loaded wagon containing eleven colored
people, driYen by white man, collapsed
while descending hill and all the occu-
pants thrown out. The driver was cut
