benefit to his brother managers and

A moss-grown rule was pulled
out of the books by Umpires
Mccormick and Hart in yester-
days game between the Giants
and Braves. Burns hit a ground
er to short that Barbara booted,
the ball rolling a few feet into
left field. Barbara in disgust,
threw his glove and hit the ball.
Under an old rule this gives
the batter three bases. The de-

Barnes from first and gave Burns
a triple on what should have
been an easy out.

DOLD PIONEER KEEPS IN TRIM a

There is one character in the activi-
ties of Five Mile Beach who always
stands out in the crowd. He was one
of the first to see the opportunities
offered in real estate. This is none
other than Eben Yenney.
Mr.. Yenney has been a promi-
nent person in the local activities and
has always been one of the first to
offer his services in anything of bene-
fit to the resort. While working for
Wildwood, however, he has not forgot
ten his own pleasures, and may often
be seer on the Wildwood streets riding
a beautiful chestnut steed.
AS in the past, he again set a new
example last Sunday when he rode
the prancing horse from Wildwood
clear to the life saving station on Two
Mile Beach and back, accomplishing
this feat for the first time in history.
He said that although the road is not
a beautiful boulevard by any means,
still he enjoyed the ride and it brought
back the days when he used to ride
the western prairies, and one must
admit that the desert stretches on Two
Mile Beach do resemble to a great ex-
tent the rolling plains of the country
! west of the Mississippi. However, we
hope to live to see the day when Two
Mile Beach itself will grow from its
present condition until it is as thickly
populated as Wildwood is at the pres
ent time. 1t is not an impossible feat,
for it has not been many years since
Five Mile Beach itself vas without a
house on it. And with the present
building boom, if it keeps on, and con-
ditions point to no let-up, one will
have to look for new ground for
building in a few years. We therefore
take pleasure in pointing out Mr.. YEN
ney's deed which will be repeated in
time by others, not only on horseback,
but later in carriages, wagons, autos
and ever in a%eroplanes and later We
hicles now unknown to us. He has
pointed the way, now others will fol-
low.

G. A. r. VETERAN DIES SUDDENLY

George Stewart, seventy-eight years
old, and a veteran of the Civil War,
died of heart failure at nine o'clock
Thursday morning, while fishing in
the surf on Two Mile Beach.
Mr.. Stewart vas born in Millville,
is a stepfather by marriage of Mrs.
Joseph B. Brown. On Thursday morn
ing he went with his grandson and
granddaughter, Mr.. and Mrs. Franklin
Brown, to Two Mile Beach to fish. He
wasn't feeling very we'll and COM
planned of pains around the heart. A
curious phase of the occurrence was
that after he felt the pains his grand
son said to him, jokingly, did you
think you were going to die?" and he
replied, well, 1 don't know a better
spot to do it in" A few minutes later
he fell over dead.
Coroner Ingersoll was summoned
and he brought the body back to Wild
wood.
Mr.. Stewart will be buried in Mill
vile, the funeral to be held at his
home on East Davis e at half
past eleven Saturday morning.

LEGION NOTES

The Boy and Girl Scouts sold during
Decoration Day $74.6S worth of flags
for the Legion. A prize of a two and
one-half dollar gold piece was offered
as a reward for the Girl Scout and the
Boy Scout turning in the largest
amount from the flags. The Girl Scout
who won the prize was Shiela Ross
Kan, Of ia East Crocus road, the
Crest, with a high mark of $3.50.
Stanley Goldberg, of East Montgomery
avenue, was the Boy Scout to win the
prize with 1851 to his credit.
Louis Morey, who won the Ford a
offered by the Legion, has been seen
driving around town in it, looking like
the cat that ate the canary. There
was ten gallons of gasoline in the tank
when he received the car at clever
o'clock Monday night, and he was OBJ
served buying more gas at noon the
next day. We venture to guess that
the lucky Mr.. Morey didn't sleep any
Monday night, or how could he pos
sibly use up ten gallons of gas in that
short time? There's a question for
Sherlock Holmes.

Craythorn-Nickerson Co. have just fin
ished the contract.
Clerk Winterburn notified the Com
m~issioners that he had examined the
petitions filed against Messrs. Bright
and Smith and decided they did not
contain enough names. The number
of signers on the recall petitions was
based on the votes polled at the last
election, when it should have been
based on the number of names on the
registry list. The list of registered
voters always far exceeds those VINO
vote. A recall petition must be signed
by at "least thirty per centum OF the
electors" Who are the electors? A
person who does not vote is just as
much an elector as the one who does
vote. One avails himself of the oppor-
tunity and the other does not, When
it comes to a recall this neglectful per-
son has to be taken into o Dy
reason of the requirement of a larger
number of signers. City Solicitor
Jonathan Hand and Clerk Winterburn
went to Mays Landing yesterday to
Law the matter before Supreme Court
Justice Black, and get his opinion.
Judge Black made an order sustain
ing the clerk and the recall petitions
against Commissioners Bright and
Smith have been returned to John t.
Byrne. agent for the petitioners, who
has ten days to amend same by the
procurement of additional signers to
comply with the law.
There is a possibility of the recall
election being held about the middle
of July.
Clerk Winterburn stated that there
were a few over 100 registered vot-
ers on the poll books, and as 30 per
cent is required on a recall petition,
it would require at least 515 names,
which the Smith and Bright petitions
did not have, as those who circulated
these petitions understood that 1t re-
ouired 80 per cen of the votes polled.
1t is said the petitions against Mayor
Hendee contain more names to safe
guard against a similar drawback.
The clerk also stated that fourteen
petitions had been filed with him
shortly after n o'clock that day
against Mayor w. C. Hendee.
Bills were ordered paid, including
n of A. A. Clegg for $50 for services
as garage inspector.

DIR. CHARLES A.. FUREY, JR.

Of osteopathy, that science which is now thoroughly recognized
Is the most efficient treatment for nervous, chronic and surgical
diseases. We refer to DIR. Charles A. Furey, Jr, with offices in
the Real Estate Trust Building, Philadelphia. DIR. Furey will
require little introduction to many residents and visitors at the
South Jersey resorts, as he conducts offices at Wildwood, N. j.,
visiting there each Wednesday and Sunday and receiving patients
at Cape May by appointment. DR.. Furey is licensed by the State
of Pennsylvania and by New Jersey as well, and has long been
recognized as a leader in his profession, many Of the resorts most
prominent residents and visitors having benefited UNNECESSARILY
by his treatments. 1t is well within our memory when osteopathy
was regarded lightly as a new fad, but instead of fading into
oblivion, as has been the case of various other schools, osteopathy
to-day is regarded by the highly intelligent as being the treatment
which removes the cause of disease, permitting nature to effect

the wish that we might have DR.. Furey as a frequent visitor here
