the small boy in the back yards
such was their respect for the or
dinance of the Town Fathers
The day was however, a holiday ii
its general aspects and but little
labor of any kind was done. The
expression, there was not a single
thing going on" was literally true
as far as any effort at public dem.
onstration was concerned and be.
fore the morning was half gone the
people singly by pairs or in squads
were wandering to and fro in 6
listless way as if they wanted
something to do but didn't know
where to go to find it. The Smyr.
ma Cornet Band gave Mr.. Winter
| the confectioner, a Serenade to-
ward noon and in turn were treat
ed to some of his best ice cream
and cake. Ire day was given to
pleasure seeking which was with
the most of people partook of a So
cial character. The shower in the
early part Of the evening of that
day made the restrictions in regard
to fireworks practically imperative
and the juveniles, as well as those
Of larger growth finished the day
in several parts of the town in ex-
-ploding crackers, rockets, ETC.,
clearing out we believe the entire
stock of the town The incidents
usual to such day in the way of
happenings were few, none a mat
ter of record.
SALE OF LOTS AT WOOD
LAND BEACH. Some weeks ago
John H. Hoffecker surveyed and
made plot of 164 building lots
at Woodland Beach. Autographed
copies of this plot have been struck
off and largely circulated for the
purpose of inducing buyers. On
Thursday last Mr.. Hoffecker, as
sisted by his son Waiter, retraced
the lines of the streets indicated
on the plot and drove stakes at all
the corners SO that parties con
templating purchasing can now
plainly see the shape and relative
position of the several streets and
lots. On Friday next, the 11th
inst, the Thomas Clyde will make
an excursion to Woodland Beach
for the special purpose of bringing
buyers to attend the public sale of
these lots which will then be made.
It is expected that the attendance
will be very large and the bidding
free. Woodland Beach certainly
offers large inducements and SUI
perior advantages to those wishing
to erect summer cottages on our
shore. The ground containing these
lots is all high and stretches along
the water front both above and be
low the hotel and has for its rear
boundary the public road. Each
lot therefore is easy Of access. 1t
is in daily communication by
steamer Thomas Clyde with Phila-
delphia and within eight miles Of
Smyrna where is to be found am
pie railroad facilities and tele-
communication. The man
agement therefore confidently ex-
poets success at the sale on Friday
next which will take place after
the arrival Of the Clyde.
