Hereford Club Party

The seaside clubhouse Of the Hereford
Cunning and Fishing club at Hereford
was the scene of a brilliant Washing
toms birthday celebration. Twenty
members came down and spent the
week-en in good pure old fashioned
fun. The walls Of the cottage rang
with laughter aud merriment chased
the little glooms aside. Mrs. Farrell,
the club ste wardess supplied their wants
in fine style and maybe II the members
weigh themselves, they will find that
a trip over the weekend to the Here
ford club is beneficial. The Hereford

organized In 1875 and Is now thirty
nine years old. Nine years after their
organization, the club obtained a char
ter and on May lst they will hold their
thirtieth charter anniversary and it is

enthusiasm. When first organized
the club was known as the Sayre Gun
ming and Fishing club and of all the
members four remain, who are George
Lesher, Chas. Stanbach, VIM. f.
Mauer and Pryor Dougherty. The
club as it stands today has quarters at
the southeast corner Of 18th and Girard

cent club house at Hereford. The

Mrs. T%uIIidge addressed the City

ject of the proposed 500. 900 High
school. Mrs. TuIlidge pleaded for the
erection of the school and her whole
theme was to have an auditorium In
the building, where intellectual enter
tainments aud educational lectures
could be given. Iu closing her address
she stated that during the summer her
cottage on Glenwood avenue would be
turned into a domestic Economy
School," During the progress of her
talk, she laid great stress upon the In
habitants of Wildwood and told those
within hearing distance, that the adj
ministration now working under the
new government had done more for
Wild wood than the previous one, and
that al loon as we stopped knocking
each other we would surely advance.
Turning to the commissioners Mrs.
Tullidge said: II plead with you

Transfer OF water Company

The Public Utilities Commissioners
Of New Jersey have dismissed the petit
ton filed recently by Ernest Watts for
The petitioners in which permission
was asked for the transfer of the Holly
Beach, Wild wood and North Wild
wood Water company with its prop
critics, rights and franchises to the
Wildwood Waterworks company.
After q review of the petition the
Commissioners dismissed the bill on
February 9th; citing a case of Golfer VS..
Tacoma Railway & Power company as
a precedent.
II now appears that the petition of
the transfer was dismissed on the OBJ
lection offered by Henry H. Ottens and
William d. Eynon, who hold three
shares Of the North Wildwood COM
pany stock. The directors were repre-
sented by J. Chas. Winters, of Camden,
and Hon. 8. K. Robbins, OF Moores-
town. 1t was held that the company
which desired to transfer their property
had no'right TO tranefer their franchise
unless the company went into dissolu-
ton.
The petition sho wed that there are six
stockholders of the North Wildwood
company owning II shares of stock
issued and outstanding; that four of
the said stockholders owning fourteen
shares Of stock, at a meeting approved
the transfer, and that resolutions by
each company were passed looking to
the contamination thereof. 1t further
appears, however, that two stockhold-
ers owning three shares of stock of the
said company objected to the agree
ment by this Board on the grounds
that said transfer amounts to and in
effect is a dissolntio1 of said company
and that the methods provided for In
Chapter 1856, Laws of 1896 Che general
corporation Act and the acts supple
mental thereto and amendatory there
Of should have been adopted.
This shows that the minority stock
holders, Mr.. Ottens and Mr. Eynon,
have temporarily at least thwarted the
transfer Of one of North Wild woods
most valuable franchises which other
wise would have been sold for a "mere
song"

Hereford Inlet which greatly saved
the situation during the mid-winter
storms which were remarkable 10
severity and high water. All winter
several robins have been noticed Ia the
trees up in Surf avenue in Angelsea.
while the fickers which were so notice
able In summe time strung along the
telegraph lines on Surf avenue, have
moved their domiciles towards the
railroad. The albatross, which form
the winter bird life along the beach,
arc still with us and only last Sunday
possibly 500 of these handsome big
northern birds, many of them weigh
ing 20 pounds, were gathered on the
sand bars at Anglesea point where
CLAIMS have been plentiful this year.
These big birds can be e at the
Academy of Natural Science, Philadel-
phia, where a half dozen species are
exhibited and classified as the true
albatross. One of these big birds were
noticed to pick up d surf clam and fly
to Surf avenue, where it succeeded In
dropping came and smashing it on the
hard gravel, after repeated failures to
smash the clam on the beach sand.
This certainly shows the process of
reasoning.
Several Sundays ago the North Wild
wood beach was generously covered
with star fish which is rather unusual
as they are very seldom cast up along
the beaches in this section. One mau
picked up an umbrella full of these
crustaceans on the beach at Fifteenth
street.
The old wreck which for 81 years
has laid In the sand hills at 18th street
or the beach now lies high and dry at
the top of high water. The entire
keel of this old schooner is entirely
bare for a length of practically 200 feet.
Captain Henry Ludlam, of the Here
ford life saving station, says that this
vessel went ashore 81 years ago and
that he at that time owned an interest
ia her. She was a complete wreck and
during the process of beach building
gradually disappeared from sight un-
til but a few iron bolts remained to be
seen. Today it lies high aud dry on
the bathing beach aud recent high
waters have washed the sand hills
back on the meadows and left her In
plain sight.
