Peconic Bay Clubhouse Receives a Shot Which Arouses the Entire Colony. South Jamesport, L. August 1 Th hotels here finished the ftlling-up process this week, and while the proprietors are enjoying a most lucrative sea-, son the guests are having equal enjoy-' ment in various piscatorial ventures and water and land sports of every kind, as well as quiet recreation in shady nooka by the seaside or in the pleasant Just as Captain Jones said last week "there's plenty of fish, and they'll bite when they get ready." Well, thoy got, ready this week, and most everybody has caught handsome blues and weakflsh. Dr. Robert L.

Graham, Theodore Roosevelt' Rosenthal and Dr. M. R. Beringer, all of Manhattan, went out with Captain Jones Tuesday and caught sixteen weakflsh, that weighed 48 pounds. This party is high hook for the week.

Mr. Reeves of Manhattan caught a A pound blue Wednesday. This is the largest yet as! to size. William Glier of Brooklyn caught; a dozen weakflBh early in the week. They averaged nearly throe pounds each.

1 It has been shown, though, that law! and medicine won't mix on the fishing! grounds. Lawyer Charles Brandt, and Dr. Fred-Bleil, both of Brooklyn, are stopping at the Peconic. They aro' patient and persistent fishermen. Every! day they sally forth, loaded with all th1 choice baits, but although this patience (s long, and although others catch fish all around them, there is something thoi matter with the bait or themselves, for-they have yet to get even a nibble at the hook.

The affair has become a standing joke at the hotel, but the men join good-naturedly in the chafing, and with considerable amusement each night report, "No fish yet; but we're going to stick till we get one." Tuesday the Mlamogues defeated the Camp Early boys In a lively ball game here. Score, 8 to 4. Batteries for Jamesport, Cornwell and Weir; for Camp Early, James and Melntyre. Wednesday the Mlamogues were defeated by Cutchogue; score, 86. Batteries For Mlamogues, Youngs and Williamson; for Cut-chogues, Reeve and Gomez.

Mr. and Mrs. DeBevoise of Brooklyn have entertained several parties with nice automobile trips this week The Great Peconic Bay Yacht Club house met with a terrihlo accident Tuesday it suffered a severe gunshot wound, and it Is said that it was only through the prompt work of a carpenter that blood poisoning was prevented. Suddenly, Tuesday forenoon, there was a terrific explosion from the upper story.

Almost quicker than It takes to tell it a crowd of nearly 200 excited summer residents had gath ered from the Miamogue and Peconic. At first many were afraid to enter the building. Some said that the Bteward of the club, Charles Morse, had committed suicide. Finally the awful tragedy was cleared up. It was discovered that the steward, after hoisting the club Hags in the early morning, had reloaded his signal cannon, placed It in an ante-room ready for the sundown salute, and one of th little boys had discovered the "toy" and pulled the string to see what would happen.

It happened, all right, and blew a big hole through the side of the building. Then In the excitement the hoy escaped, as all wise kids do. Wednesday a paity of twelve young men and maidens from the Peconic and Miamogue en-Joyed a clambake at Squire's Grove, across the bay. Included were Almon Rasquin, Harry Taylor, Mies Edith Glelr, Miss Grace Christopher, the Misses Hegeman. Hayward Mahan, Miss Emily Streat, Nee! Taylor, F.

LAWN TENNIS AT EDGEMERE. Young Women Contesting for the Silver Cups Put TJp by Manager Green. Edgemere, L. August 1 Lawn tennis has held the upper hand at the Edge-mere Club this week, and on Tuesday a tournament for women opened and the games are being continued to-day. Half a dozen or more young women are wielding racquets for the several pretty cups which Manager T.

D. Green has offered for the contest, and some very fast sets are being played by the fair ones, among whom are Miss Katherine MacGuire, Miss Eileen MacGuire, Miss Kitty McKenna, Miss Alice Cordler, Miss Hilda Chapman, Miss May Elderd, Mrs. E. A. Shewan and Mrs.

J. Black. This coterie has demonstrated that they know the game from A to and their fast work over the nets has brought forth loud applause from the numbers who sit on the clubhouse verandas and on the lawn each afternoon, and watch the contests. The young women of this place are greatly interested in the lawn fete and baznr which will be held at Far.Hockaway alt of next woelc for. the benefit of fit.

Joseph's Hospital, and for some weeks past they have been making a hustling canvass among the club members and cottagers seeking donations for the Edge-mere booth, which they promise will be the prettiest at the fete. Mrs. Frank .1. Heaney, whose pretty summer home Is in Neptune avenue, is chairman of the Edgemere booth and has gathered a number of the prettiest girls that can be found at this resort to be in attendance at the booth during the week. The Thursday evening "pop" concert was Just as enjoyable as any of its predecessors and another first class entertainment was given.

It has been suggested that a light comic opera be presented by the young folk of the place before the end of the summr, but It is not likely to be carried out, as the social whirl keeps the younger element constantly on the go, and there is no time for rehearsing. Mr. and Mrs. J. McBrlde are UBed in their new cottage on Ocean avenue, where they have been entertaining quite a number of house parties.

The house Is one of the prettit-st tn Edgemere and Is surrounded by fine lawns and flower gardens. Automobitists find Edgemere a convenient place to stop at and each day parties come down from the city In their cars and, after taking a dtp tn the ocean as an appetizer, have luncheon at the Edgemere Club. The season Is now entering on Us second month and the club has not a room left unoccupied, and applieations for accommodations are being refused each day. The season has been a good one and Manager Green is well satisfied. Mrs.

Holmes gave a delightful whist party at her cottage on Seaview avenue a few days ago and, after the games, a dainty luncheon was served. The card tables were set on the broad verandas of the cottage. CHARITY BEGINS AT ARVERNE. That's the Summer Home of Many Kind-hearted People "Who Give Liberally. Arvevne, L.

August 1 "Charity begins at Arverne" would be an appropriate way of putting it, for not a day passes but that some affair Is given for one or the other charitable institutions In the big oity, and thousands of dollars are donated each season by sojourners at this resort. The present month will find many of these entertainments occupying the time and attention of the summer colonists and hotel patrons, the social calendar being well filled. Bathing during the week Just closed has been very pleasant. Among the bathing suits seen on the beach this season are many that are a masterpiece of the dressmaker's art and expensive material is used in many. Miss Davis, who is stopping at the Home Crest cottage.

Is the only young woman who has come out in a sheath bathing suit, and her beauty and fine figure have attracted the attention of all the young bachelors. Miss Davis' suit Is of black silk, with trimmings of black and white striped silk, white a girdle and cap of the same material, high bathing boots and a parasol complete her outfit. The garden masquerade party given in the Italian gardens of the Arverne Hotel last Wednesday evening was one of the most enjoyable affairs held this season, and was attended by a large number of the cottagers and hotel patrons, nearly all of whom were costumed In pretty and grotesque makeups. Prizes were awarded for tho prettiest and most grotesque costumes and the est ivl ties were prolonged until after the midnight hour. Tho regular weekly whist parties which are being held at the Ijorratne cottage every Thursday ufternoon have become a very popular diversion from the usual round of gayety at this resort, and are being well attended.

The vaudeville entertainment given at the Pier Theater last Thursday evening for the benefit of the Hebrew Infant Asylum In Manhattan was largely attended and a good sum Wis realized for the worthy charity. Miss Elsie Solomen entertained a party of friends on Monday on the occasion of her birthday anniversary. A theater party at Morrison's Theater, followed by a supper and dance, was the programme and the favors were tiny sliver spoons. Willlnm Scheer of Brooklyn Is counted Arverne's most enthusiastic fisherman and devotes several days each week in angling. He hns a fleet of half a dosen boats, ranging frnm an ocean going steamer down to a launch and Doing stunts on the beach is a favorite pastime for many sojourners here, and playing with the medicine ball and baseball Is being enjoyed by the women as well as the men.
