Bowling. 



The bowling club rolled a tew 

 games iWonday night. J. Austin Shaw 

 was a visitor and rolled with the boys. 

 The club seems to have lost all in- 

 terest in bowling; the attendance was 

 small and the rolling poor. None are 

 going to the convention.

A SAD ACCIDENT. 



Jennie and Bertie Lonsdale, daugh- 

 ters of Edwin Lonsdale, the well- 

 known florist of Chestnut Hill. Phila- 

 delphia, were drowned at Ocean Grove. 

 N. J., last Tuesday. They were bathing 

 in the surf when they were carried out 

 by a heavy undertow. Their calls for 

 help were heard by a life guard, who 

 succeeded in bringing the young 

 women ashore, and doctors were at 

 once summoned who did all they 

 could to save the lives of the sisters. 

 but to no purpose. They died while 

 the doctors were endeavoring to re- 

 store them. 



Thousands will sympathize with 

 poor Mr. Lonsdale and his family in 

 the terrible loss they have sustained.
