(Specie!)—One of the most paral

Company’s visit toTybee this sea
son was occasioned by George
Sharp who when he first looked out
over the boundless, paused in ut
ter astonishment: “The great ge
whizz! What a freshet!—Boys
this beats ’B6.’’ Henderson Lan
ham and Clevo Trevitt had to pick
McOsker up aud carry him to the
hotel while Bailiff McLeod and
Bil, Dreanon lead George Morris
to the kitchen aud gave him a
drink of water.
George Sharp had done fixed the
crowd and didn’t know it.
Now Mr. Hustler I am not go

details of this trip—l know my

the high places and “events” and
some of the “eveuters” as we go
along.
In the first place we are in this
place and if the wind would ever
let up why we might have time to
make up our minds that it is the
pleasantest place on earth—or the
Ocean either for that matter.
After the ‘ George Sharps trou

were getting ourselves registered
aud roomed very nicely when all
of a sudden a sort of a “Mr. Potter

from Chicago come crushing
through the crowd and grasping
Dr, Trevitt by the hand exclaim
ed: “Why Chauncey, old boy,
hows York? Come through Wash

And Author Word led him to one
side aud informed him that Mr.
Dr. Trevitts first name was “Cleve
land’’ and that he was a fire fight
ing Georgia Democrat. This expli
nation seemed satisfactory to the

ofNo.l. was insulted and de.

informed the daughter of the ho

er Before,
THE HONEY-MOON HEAVEN.
AND IS FAST BECOMING A RESORT
WHERE MORTALS MEET AND ARE
GIVEN IN MARRIAGE. CONTRAST, IS
THE IDEA THIS YEAR.
Atlantic City, July lltii 18)4.--
There is not a hotel man in Atlau
tic City who is not jubilant over the
prospects for a season winch in point
of magnitude and brilliancy, will far
outshine any previous year.
Never before in the month of June
have there been such big crowds h< r j
a fact evidenced by the appearance
on the boardwalks every day of a
crowd which, in size, is a close rival
of the midsummer throngs of years
past.
Judging from the rooms being en
gaged by Washingtonians the capital
city will be well represented, and by
those whose stay will be lengthened
into a longer period than usual.
Beyond being a resort where newly
married couples pass away the pleas
tnt days of their honeymoon, Atlan
aic City is becoming the center of
marriage events, several couples hav
ing already journeyed here in order
to enter Hymen’s bonds within sight
and sound of the sea.
Were the lucky individuals enjoy
ing the cool seß air here ta inform
their sweltering brethern in the In
land, that overcorts and wraps form
n most comfortable abjuuct to th?
evening wearing apparel, they would
be scoffed at, yet such is the fact.
The display of this heavier article of
dress on the boardwalk during the
evening promenade is a notable one,
and gives a look of discomfort to
those who come here supplied only
with the lighter wear of summer.
Bathing after dai knees has fallen
and when the moon is bright, has be
come quite a fad among some of the
society people here, and nearly ever)
evening a merry party is seen mak
ing its way towards the Ocean.
The glare of the electric lights
seiAe to illuminate the water for
considerable distance out, and throws
iuto relief the bathers as they dip up
and down in the waves.. It is sel
dom, however, that the member of
the party go out as far or take the
risks as they would in the daytime,
through occasionally some one helper
than the lest will vanish in the dark
ness, take a Jong swim and return
after considerable time.
Some young ladies, prominent
lights in the social set of Pitts
burgb, and stopping at the Brigh
ton, had au experience the other
day which has made them shy of
indulging in ocean baths, or at
J'-ast long swims, in the future.
A discussion as to their respec
tive abilities caused a wager ot a
box of candy between them as to
Aho coiud reach the life boat first.
Ihey started, but when out about
half way the violent exertion ex
hausted oue, aud it was only
through her presence of mind in
I floating until her companion came
to her assistance chat a tragic ter
minatioa ot the race was avoided.
Bhe generously shared her prize
with the unfortunate looser, and
• snow receiving congratulations
" u h or bravery in goiug to her
friend s assistance.
lue seashore young lady allows
her taste to run toward simple as
well as brilliant colors this year
and generally in sharp contrast
to that worn by her companion,
should she be with one.
A most striking instance of this
'vas noticed the other day in the
case of four pretty members of the
lair sex who were out on their af
ternoon promenade. Two of them
were attired in white, as pure as
the driven snow, while their com
panions were robed entirely in
black from head to foot. S„ great
A>as the contrast that it attracted
universal attention.
