Oakley Smith, with George Lindeberg.
want out sailing yesterday afternoon in
his boat, and had an experience he will
not soon forget. They started for Ito-
ton Point, but the wind died out and
they stopped at Long Beach. and went
in swimming. There was a strong tidal
wave running and Mr. Smith lost con-
trol of himself. and began to drift out.
Hi called to Mr. Lindeberg and the lat-
ter seeing his friend’s peril. went to his
assistance, and finally aueeeded in get-
ting him near enough to the shore so
that he could stand. Mr. Smith was so
overcome that it was several minutes he
tore Mr. ,Lindeberg could get him ashore.
The necessity of carrying lighted lan-
terns on bicycles after dark was clearly
shown last night when two young men,
one of whom resides on East avenue,
were returning from a spin to Dorlon’s
Point. At a point not far from East ave—
nue, a collision with a team would have
occurred had it not been for slant am one
of the bicyclists was ceerying. Asit was
the driver narrowly escaped running the
wheelmandown.
Thomas Lowery, of Brooklyn, who is
visiting John Ayres on East avenue,

placed on two barges and towed to its
new site, where it will he set on spiles.
The practice of dumping garbage along
the shore, where, instead of being car-
ried out by the tide, it lays and putrefiss
in the sun, is still indulged in to a great
extent. For the sake of the health of
the commrnity this should be discou-
tinued before the hmlth officer is obliged
to take some action in the matter.
The great number of craft, from the
rudely constructed scow to the stately
yacht, which make their anchoring
ground in the Farm creek, indicate that a
large proportion of the population of the
East Side are devoted to aquatic pursuits,
either for pleasure or profit.

Among those on board were Jami-s L.

We fully realize the fact that as soon as we announced the news that we were
going to offer the stock of Herman Snyder’s dry goods store for sale our store
would be crowded, and so it was. We further knew that certain classes of goods
would go the first thing. Therefore in order to protect ourselves and customers,
we have held back some of the best of his exceptionally well selected stock, in or-
der to give an extra stimulus to trade this coming week. We acknowledge the
fact that never in our history have goods been bought more freely than during the
last week. This simply goes to show that the public know a good thing when they
see it.
We quote you today the following unapproachable bargains; we also give the
exact amount of each we have in stock.
We find our success does not seem to suit a would-be competitor and he takes
pains to mention the fact that he is selling no old bankrupt stock. We would sim‘
ply ask for information how many times has a certain stock of dry goods been
through the Baukruptacy proceedings. Bless your heart, if they could only show
up as new and as fresh and as clean a stock of dry goods, etc.. as Herman Snyder
had, why South Norwalk would not hold them; they would move again.
