SEreilAL OBVBCIIMS.

I. CHUB0H.In the First H. B. Church the auditorium

was well filled id the morning, the servicesMing for the benefit of the Junior EpworthC<eague. - The platform was banked with cutflowert—roses, peonies, stringas, etc., pre-senting masses of contrasting colors. At theToot of each aisle was a daisy-twined arch.Of .course the little girls, In dainty whiteCrocks and daintily trimmed hats-^videnoesof the mothers' pride in their darlings-pre-sented a charming sight, and their little songservice was qnlte pretty. The followingnamed were presented for baptism:

Kenneth Laing Allgrunn, Grace LeonaAllgrunn, Martell Judson Beeves, Russell H.fan Horn, Bessie Howell Evans, Hilton

Horgsn Evans, Anna uniao Frltti, EllaVritts, Catherine Buck and Harry GeorgeDonahue.

The pastor, the Bev. Dr. Woodruff, ad-resssd himself especially to the little folks

In an illustrated lecture, taking his themeJohn ill: 821-"And I, If I be lifted

from the earth, will draw all man unto me."With a magnet and a dlih of nails and

lacks ha illustrated MsHectare In stun, wisethat the youngest member seated In front ofhim could not fail to see, the application.With a ample of nails and a half doeen tacksattracted by toe hidden force of the magnethe illustrated the heads of the family andthe ohUdren, showing ttat the example oftfce asiMkt would ooatrol the oUldrsa, tbsrs-fcj dsdoetng a great moral bason, Mat snch

in ths matter of chawh-going,mold Influence tbeohlldreo la the stmedirection. His whole djsoourse was of thesame tnod, wits tie underlying meuincttat Cork* was the oMgnst of UMcarisUaoworM. ' "

At the close of the Sunday school serviceOr. Woodruff burned the mortgage that had

bsM against the ohurch, the last pay-mast, some low, having" been made on theoriginal mortgage of (3,000. A burningglass was focused on the document, hot thelatter being ef heavy bond paper, a copy ofthe Church and Hunt had to serfs as theprime factor of destruction.

A s ohurch was crowded In the evening towitness the doings of the children. The pro-gramme was reasonably long and quiteInteresting, ooosUtilig of ohomsss, recitationsand dialogues. Miss Georgia Northey sang"When I read the sweet story of old" to abeautiful old EngUu air.' Bertram Hoag-land and MfaaV Carrie Walk sang a duet,

Boss of Sharon," "and — the room beingdarkeuad-slx or seven little girls dressed Inwhite peignoirs and carrying lighted candlesmarched In from the corridor and sang

Jams bid. us shine, receiving a heartyround of applause for their pleasing effort.'By request the Xev. Dr. Leonard nude a

ten-mlnote talk to tie children. He spoke ofthe Institution of the day; wished that everyBunday was a " children's day," of worse,without' ths programme prepared for theipedal day: further wished that each day ofthe year was a " children's day." He •pokeof ths desirability ef dhildren'attsnaing pub-lie worship, that the Banday school was notsufficient; that it was the duty of parents toattend churco with their children. Dr.Leonard can hardly have been in sympathywith the .powerful movement made .at theOeneral Conference regarding card playing,dancing and theatre-going, as ha was fierceIn denunciation of these smusBments. Hisremarks were couched In terms plainly to beunderstood by his auditors of tender yean.By the way, he injected a conundrum Intobis remarks. Speaking of the boy who wasslow to obey bis mother's request, he askedwhy such a boy waa like a wheel-barrowThe reply was, because he had to be pushed.

" ' >U8BTTlBUir OHVBOir.Die Frsaby terlan Church, beautifully deco-

rated with flowers and plants as befitted theoccasion, was crowded on Bunday afternoonby old and young eager to witym and takepart in the Children's Day exercises. Theprogramme consisted ot songs and recitationsby the children and an address by the pastor,the Rev. Dr. Halloway. An Interesting partof the programme was the presentation ofdiplomas to twenty members of the primarydepartment of the Bunday school who hadcompleted the course of study In that depart

lent Superintendent B. T. Smith, In pre-senting the diplomas, told what they werepresented for and how muoh work the chil-dren had had to do to earn them; As a proofof the thorflnghnees of their work he callecupon the members of the class to repeat th2Sd psalm and they, though not ozpeotlng tobe colled upon, responded In a lively manner.Those who received diplomas were:

Robert Wrfdrlclt, Manning Drake, Ho-Wolfe, Albert Clarke, Alfred Bwaoshamer,Bennett Cooper, LeHoy Randolph, WilliamHeadland, Danlol Bttll, Edgar Still, AlpheiiBMcCraoken, Robert'Treeland,' Bach el Condiet, Helen Gray, May Downing, Edna KaHouse, Grace Randolph, Dorothy Lyntl, MarySingleton and Jessie Maxwell. .

Another interesting feature of the exerciseswaa the presentation of bibles by Dr. Halliway to thirteen memben of the school wh<

Continued on fifth payt.

Ibles to be Provided for tlie ForeignBorn.

The Morris County Bible Society held one'• tut most successful annual meetings in the

First 11. E. Church, Dover, last Tueeday.Tha attendance was very small, both morn-~ ig and afternoon,; the exercises, however,were most interesting. The programme, a*

Iren In the EBA last weak, was folly carriediut and the cordial hospitality of the ladies~ the churoh was greatly enjoyed. The ser-

mon of the morning and the address of theIternoon were above the average given on

luoh occasions,- both in manner and matter.practical result of the meeting will lie to

Irovlde more effectively for the supplying ofie foreign populations in the county witfatptes of tbe Scriptures in their own lan-

guages.In the absence of the president, Col. E. L.

)obbios, tbe first vice president, tbe Bev. T.A. Beeves, presided. The Rev. Dr. Stoddardand the Rev. H. D. Sassaman conducted the

ivotioual exercises. The minutes were read>y ths Rev. Dr. Albert Erdman after theipening of the business session. '

The Invitation of the Rev. Mr. Noble tomeet next year in Hendham was accepted by

society. The matter of furnishing theforeigners in the county with bibles was re-ferred to the executive committee. Thepresident appointed the following committees:~>n Nominating Officers, the Rev. Dr. W. W.Halloway and tbe Rev. Dr. 0. 8. Woodruff;m preacher, the. Rev. M. T. Qlbbe and the

body st a meeting of the parent society to beheld in New York in October of ths nrasent

r. The preacher chosen for next year IsBsv. Dr. Woodruff, with th« Rev. N.

o tb* pfMeher, the Rev. W. H. Woolvsrton,>f Bconton, for ths able and instructive

Ths final resoluttoo, to which refsreoos hasalready been made, oonosraedthelmporsanoeof caring for «he foreigners is this oounty.

The remarks of Dr. Vox upon "Ths Bible1 Mtsnwura," were delivered with feelmg

Tha Bev. A. O. Ayres gars • most Inter1

asttng dssBrlpUon of th* flva principal Arosr-sdlUons of the btble, which hs describsd

as being due to ths desire to correct errors,to Improve the style, from devotional Inter-est, for sectarian purposes, or, finally, be-cause of man selfoouoelt. The first Amer-ican blbls was that of Elliott, ths apostle to

Indiana, dated Cambridge, 1601, of whichthen a n only 1SS ooplas known to be inexistence today. The second was the Ger-man bible of Christopher Bauer, published InPhiladelphia in 1748. In Boston Kneelandprinted a bible In 1T81, and tha ContinentalCongress authorised, In 17)7, Sobers Aitkento publish an edition. A single copy of thislatter is now worth «60. The translation ofNoah Webstar In 1BSS was a help to laterworkers in tab same field.,

Ths address ot Mr. Randolph upon thetheme "How to Interest ths Young Peoplein the Bible" was a very happy and sugges-tive effort. To Interest others, ha'ssid, wemust be Interested ourselves; we must showour interest by endeavoring' to get othrri t>,become Interested. But we cannot m*sr«tanother In anything for wnloh hs,has nous*and, lastly, there must bo some need which is'supplied by that which Is to become a matterof Interest, when it Is put to use. Thesepoints were developed In a very original andstriking manner in connection with tbe de-scription of Scripture in Its own language aslight, milk, bread and seed.

months ago quarantined on account of BmaU-Counsel Rathbun's interpretation of

which almost scared the Inhabitants of tbeunty seat into conniption fits, might have

claimed with equal right.In the matter of the taxation of the County

premises at Farsippany, which hadalso been referred to Mr. Ratbbnn for anipinlon as to whose business It Is to psy the

the county or the new owner-»theounty still having the use of the countylouse and farm, Mr. Rathbun was of theiplulon that tbe new owner, Michael 1. Ken-

nedy, was not liable, a condition of the leasethe oounty being that the oounty shall pay

all taxes. Tbe said lease, Mr. Rathbun said,was signed only by Mr. Kennedy, but thebsenoe of the signature of the second part

(the oounty) would not necessarily invalidatethat Instrument. The property has been as-sessed for (25,000 but Mr. Rathbun suggestedthat if the county bad to pay the taxes—tbeamount is ISes-an effort should be made to

.ve tbe assessment reduced,' the valuationput on the property by the assessor of Hano-

townshfp being relatively muoh higher1 the valuations of other properties in the '

iwnship. The matter was referred to Free-holders Kimbsll and Whitehead and thsk>UDty Counsel. When ths County House

You will no doubt bo surprised to bearfrom me, but I have not forgotten you Iwould have written long ago but we havebad so much work chasing niggers that'itwas only once in a Jong time tuot I wouldget a chance to write or mull a letter. Butnow that tbe war is about Bettled and we havea little more time to ourselves. 1 want to letyou know that I am still In tbe land of theliving. Tbe campaign here has been a hardone and we have been on the go most of thetime since we landed. We landed in the be-ginning of the rainy season last year andrelieved tbe Eirst California Volunteers, vrbohad done nothing, as we soon found eut. TbeCall/ornlaus never had but one flgbt on tbeisland, yet they told us we would have noth-ing to do but garrison duty as they had doneit all.

We left Manila on tbe 27th of June andlanded on this island July 4, tbe volunteersgoing aboard tbe transport we came on.Just eight days after landing we had a fight inwhich we lost two men and killed 115 of theLadronea. Captain Byrne was in commandin that scrap and was promoted to Liout.Colonel. My company was stationed atBaoolod aud we would often be called in themiddle of the night to go to the mountains audBometlmee It would be two and three weeksbefore we would be back. We inarchedthrough mud knee deep, wading rivers, andBleeping in mud. We carried two bolts with100 rounds of ammunition in eacb, eachbelt weighing seven pounds, the rifle tonpounds, and a canteen full of rain water anda haversack with hard tack and bacon. Theymake regular pack mules out of us, and thenexpect us to doable time through rice wwamps,caneflelds, and through jungles where thegrata is taller than a man on horseback, audcatch oiggera whose only clothing COIIBIBUJ ofa O atrlng and who carry a bolo or machette.If a soldier fell out his only salvation was toput hfe riflo to his bead and puli tbe triggerfor it uhe nativea caught him he would suffertortures worse than a thousand deaths, Anumber of our fellows were caught by them.Two men from Company K were left behindon one expedition and the natives capturedthem, tied them and then dug one poor fel-low's eyes out and tried to make his comradeeat them. When he refused bfs teeth wereknocked out and Jammed down his.throat.They were then disemboweled and literallybacked to bits. We were out on an ex-pedition and found the remains of the poorfellows 1 jtog In the trail in a thick banana

. grove. We buried them in tbe mad.

Lieutenant Gmbb, ot my company, WASshot in a fight noon after and the trail was sobad that it was impossible to bring his bodyin with us. They dag him up and hackedhim up the same way. A detachment wassent out after him afterwards, but they couldfind only a few boneB. They had knockedhis teeth out to get the gold filling.

Soon after this our Second Lieutenant,•Ledyard, was killed. Be was a fine officerand had only been with M company threeweeks. We reecaed. his body before thedagoes had a chance to mutilate it. We havelost a great many men. In this companyalone we have lost by sickness and bulletstwenty-three man. We have now been awayfrom the United States eleven months. . Weleft with a full regiment, but since landinghere wo hare received about 380 recruitsfrom the States and the companies are farfrom befog full yet!. .' Tbe place where I amnow stationed is * little, ill smelling, diseaseinfested town of about fifty bamboo shacks..The natives live on grasshoppers, lightning

' bugs, grub worms, pinch bugs, fish and rice.The rice la the only thing they coofcj and Idon't think they would cook that were it notfor the face that It swells when cooked andthey get more. An ordinary handkerchiefwill make a full ruit of clothe* for them. ItIs comical to see a Filipino dude. The soldierstradenour"withthemtorchlcken8. The dudegives tbe flour to his best girt and she usesJtto paint her face and neck, and he cuts holesin the bag for his arms and for his head, takeshis favorite rooster In his arms and starts outfor a cook fight, with " FtHsbury'a Best X X XFlour " printed across his bock In large greenletters. When > native is fortunate enoughto own a pair of shoes, whether be hat boughtthem or stolen them from some dead soldier,by virtue of bis elegant appearance he In en-titled to become a candidate for Preeidente(mayor) of his town. The duties of his officeconsist of robbing every one poorer than hlnUBelf, having charge ot the cock fights, andfurnishing guides and chickens for detach-

moiits of American soldiars passing throughMB town. I have read in the United Statesnewspapers about the -wealth of the islands,but I fail to see where it corned Iu. I haveseeu the wealthiest people on the island wear-ing rings aud w&tchoe tbat street fakirs in tbiUnited States would give away with a cakeof soap. They also ?r,y that tliBre la ironore, copper and coal. ^\reUi maybe thereis. But I'll gamble that tbo man tbat wroteabout tbe wealth way never nearer than 20miles of the place where all this wealth issupposed to be.

To get to the mountains in the first placeone has to cross rice aud cane fields, thenjungles and ravines and gullies hundreds o!feet deep, swim rivers and take the chancesof getting cut up by the tribes who iulibithe mountains and wbo hate a white man.Old natives who are friendly tell us tbat inall the years tbe Spaniards ruled the islandsthey never crossed tbe jungles, but held onlythe seaport towns. We have traveled overtrails in the mountains here where a whiteman never was seen before. It would, in myestimation, take years of the hardest kind oengineering work to get even a trail tbat awagon could be driven over to and from themountains. To build bridges over the riversand ravines that He between the seaports audthe mountains whore tbe wealth is supposedto be would take more money tban the wholearchipelago is woitb. I saw a piece in thipaper about Senator Beveridge of Inddna" who was over here to look around," bi inging back a large gold nugget which he foundon the banks of a stream. Well now, I hateto call him a liar, but it> Beams funny tbatwhile in the last two years there have beenover one huudred thousand soldiers prowlingaround these islands, both Spanish andAmerican, they have tbe first nugget to Hadyet. Still be comes over here and Btays acouple of weeks in Manila, a city of abou300,000 inhabitants, and spends a couple moreweekB Bailing around the islands on a steamer,biking a view of them through bla glasses,and then returns to the States the only manwbo knows anything about tbe Philippinesand the lucky finder of the only nugget everfound by an American. Hs may be able toBtufE that story down some poor hoosier Inhis Indiana borne, but he can't tell it to asoldier wbo has been actively campaigninghere for nearly a year. We have tried tuee the coal which he says Is so valuable anilone might as well try to burn clay. Th« onlything of any value here to an Americanprospector is pearls. Fishing for pearls is awell paying business, for here they aro aplenty. There Ie an Australian hero whfishes about twenty milos tram bore,'who las!year made eight thousand dollars on pearls^Be haa native divers. The climate here olpresent is scorching. The land is very fertile,but one-half of the year It is under wateiand the other half It is so hard and dry thaa steam drill would make no impressionon the ground. JuBt imagine farmingSenator Beveridge also stated .that bo hadseen hundreds of bushels of Indian cornlying beside the road. This Island is 100miles long and about 40 wide andhave traveled nearly its whole length andI tell you truly that I don't think thereare one hundred acres of corn on thwhole island. To cultivate corn in the dryseason you would have to put a stick odynamite in each hill to looeen the sand up.The planters here who own sugar plantationsare in constant terror of the Ladroneswho swoop down on them at night an'demand money and. stock. If they do noget what they want, they bum the byacJndiaand carry away the women. For workingon one of these plantations a native gets onepeseto a day, which is equal to eight conta ofAmerican money. Do you blame them fobeing lazy? We are all fast becoming adeptsin the use of Spanish language and have greatfun trying to get our tongue around tbejargon that thelowerclawspeaks. It is com-posed chiefly of grunts. I have enjoyed ex-cellent health, with the exception of a couplof weeks of dysentery Bince coming, butam one of the few lucky ones and, whawith all the leprosy, small pox, itch andother terrible diseases which are as .commonhere as colda in New Jersey in December, oncannot tell tbe minute that he will be calledto join the silent brigade whose Bleep is nevebroken by sounding of bugles or tramping of e e t .

Wei), I guess I have tried your patienceabout long enough this time. I have, a fewnice relics for you and tbe family, but I willnot mail them. Our mall IR carried overluidby friendly natives to 8)Iav. a distance ofthirty miles. They sreaeralJr stool abouthalf of the packages before they get to Stfsyand tell them there that.the Ladrones chasetthem and they lost them. Prom Silay j t gottaby a small steamer to TJoUo, thirty moremiles, and from there to Manila, which is 850mites north of there, and then to the UnitedStates, so you see everybody has a whack atit before it gets home.: I will keep them andas soon as I get to the States I will mail themor express them. Well I will now close withmy kindest regards and heet wishes to your-self and the family. Please remember mekindly to nil the bova in the shop and tellthem I will not forget them when I give outsouvenirs. And if you have any old news-papers they would m greatly appreciatedThe only thin*, we nave to read here is thestars, and we nave to wait for letters fromthe States to find out whether we are at waryet or not I don't need to tell you tbat ananswer to this will be very highly appreciated.

Washington, June 13—Democratic mem-bers of tlie House of Representatives won avictory for the trusts by defeating the jointresolution to amend the Constitution of theUnited States so an to clothe Congress withpower to dissolve corporations, associationsand partnerships organized and conduetedwith a view to prevent free competition, con-trol production aud 0r prices. The votostood154 to 131, giving a majority of 23. Ths af-firmative vote was SO short of. tbe requisitetwo-thirds.

Despite tho brave show of Indignation andindependence mado by a number of Demo

•ata in caucus, only five if them musterecenough courage to goon record in favor of thoresolution. Add neither Bufeer, lluppert,Salmon nor Lentz Hue umong them. TbeOve were Meaurs Campbell, of Montana,Kaphon and Tuayer, of MussachuBotls, Soud-dor, of Now York, and Slhley, of reuusyl-vanla. Mr. Newlands, the Novada Bllvermember, voted with tbe Hopublicans. TwoIlepublicans—Messrs. Ijoud and McCall—voted with the Democrats

Mr. Richardson and bis Popocratlc follower!demonstrated their partisan consistency Inmarked degree. Por two days they had beenIndulgiug In and enjoying one of. their BpasmBof indignation and denunciation on accountof " trusts and monopolies," aud railingagainst the "octopus," and then they recordedtheir votes against a proposition to give Con-gress power to deal with tbe same.

Mr. Do -Armond, of Missouri, closed the ri<hate in opposition to the hill, and Mr. Little-field, of JVJaiue, In favor of it. Both of the!are members of the Judiciary Committee.Tho tatter's speech was a valuable contribu-tion to the discussion, despite tho fact thatwas marked by allusions and roforoncos to thiDemocratic party, which mado it unsuitablefor circulation as a Democratic campaigndocument.

• • •Representative Richardson (Democrat), ol

Tennessee, following in tho walco of tho Domocrotlo National Chairman, has also tried tc" do the right thing " by the Sugar truBt. H<offered a joint resolution providing for theadmission into tbe United States, free of duty,of all Bugar and uiolaKseu Imported from Cubsand Porto Klco. This would reduce the revenue of the National Treasury by about $25,-000,000 a year and tnako an annual gift of atleast (15,000,000 of that sum to tbe SugarTrust, which Is theprtaoipal Importer of sugarin the United Stales. While Mr. Richardsondoes not go BO far BS his Democratic colleagueand oiler to refund to the Sugar Trust thebock duties that they have already paid, stillbis proposition la a very generous one, andthe motive that prompted it should be appre-ciated when the Democratic campaign colleo-tlon box reaches tbe Wall street ofBces of thegreat Sugar TTUBD. The Ways and MeansCommittee very properly and very promptlysat down upon tbbr Democratic effort torich the Sugar Trust.

Interesting is tho story told ln Ladles'Home Journal of the bringing to lightof nn npron embroidered by Mary,queen of Scots, while In jnll awaitingpxecuUuu: A. Mr. Meyers, an Americancostumcr, who was in London on busi-ness, had an opportunity to buy a lot ofancient embroidered garments, Amongthose which he purchased waa a dressknown to have belonged to Mary, qauvaof Scots. In ripping thta, to use the coldand silver threads with which It waswrought, an apron was discovered sewedbetween the outside and the lining,whero It had been carefully hidden bythe unfortunate, queen herself. Subse-quent Bcarch has since fully establishedthe fact tost the apron Is the work ofthe fated queen. It has been shown toexperts in England, France aud theUnited States, and all agree in declaringthe stitch aBed to ho the one called the'lost stitch," which has been seurched

for by embroiderers unnvallingly for over200 yeare. Under tho microscope thework seems to be done In a Beries ofFrench knots which produce InfinitesimaldlskB of silk. These disks Ho side by sldoand very CIOBJB together. There nro hun-dreds of them to the square Inch, allevenly laid, with, the .colors exquisitelyblended. Around the edge of ench petal,forming a line around every part of thedesign, Is a tine tracery of white, eithera stitch of marvelouB ingenuity or a mi-croBcopIc cord couched on. The blossomsarc chiefly marigolds, Jasmine*, rosesand morning glurics. They are arrangedwith their leaves to form a running bor-der design, ijowing yet disconnected.

stimulant were forced between hla lipswith great dtfncnlty. Then a small hotwater bottle was placed against the littlostomach, which'seemed unnaturally hardand swollen. Next he was placed in anold fruit basket with a scrap ot blanketand developments were awaited.

Poor Bah was heartbroken. She fol-lowed the ministering angels Into thehouse. :'PlncIng her sensitive nose.under*the chla of her sick Infant, she walledmournfully and long. She was tenderlycomforted, advised to bear up, be brave,and so forth. After a time Matilda, ob-serving that the water was cooling, tookthe bottle away to be refilled. To thisBll i objected s f ohgly. But when Bhesaw Matilda returning with the bottleBhe trotted nimbly toward her and offeredto take the bottle in'hcr month. ; Matildalet her have it wonderingly. Bab >tonce went to the basket and. awkwardlypoked the bottle again under the smallInvalid'* stomach.

The puppy rapidly recovered. , Its Im-proved condition was evident t o Bab, forsho disappeared and returned, tenderlycarrying the dead puppy. It was clearlyher desire that it, too, should recel?*-treatment. But the plump little body •»beyond help. '

After everything wa>quiet again we were told by my auntto play games for ten minutes, afteiwhich supper was to bc served,

I was then unexpectedly called upon toentertain them for those ten minutes,and as there was no way of getting out otIt I thought drawing pigs in the darkwould be as amusing a game as any oth-er. So each was given paper and apencil, and after the limp was blownout by my aunt we began drawing ouipigs. The pigB, if such I might call them,,had their ears on their tails, their tailson their heads, their heads on their feet'In fact, they were everything but pigs.

We laughed and we cried until- bothmy annt and uncle came to see whattho matter was, and when they sa«thoBC awful misshapen beings they, joinedIn with, our laughter.

Allmeans of navigating the air thus far devisedare lacking in one or more of these essential*.ITnlensome new property of matter shouldbe discovered, the only promising means ofsowing the problem seems to be by applyingpower to the parachnte, for when the powerof ascending Is onoo given this, travelling ina horhnntal direction may be brought aboutby Inclining the parachute in the directionof motion required, while safe descent it as-sured by the sustaining surface.

THE erstwhile notorious Andrew JacksonRogers, more familiarly known in the heyday of his devilment as " Jack " Rogers, diedin New York last week. For four years,from 1863 to 1807, the Fourth district had thedoubtful honor of being represented by himin Congress. He was an uncompromisingCopperhead and a bully on the hustings. Heonce accepted a challenge from the dashingcavalry leader, General Judson Kilpatrlck, toKtump the district with him, both to speakfrom the same platforms. That the cam-paign didn't lack exottement goes withoutBaying. After serving two terms in CongressRodgers left New Jersey and took up hisreeidence in New York city, where he becamea Tammany adherent and soon dropped fromthe public view and there are probably fewpeople who knew him in the old days whowere aware of the fact that he was up to lastweek still In the land of the living. By theway, the Sussex. Regi»tert In its ," AncientLocal History," about a year or so ago con-tained quite a number of reference to thedoingB of Rodgers way baok in tbe 60s, thusserving, in a way, to revive his memory,

Wew Tnduatrlen In Froapect.A special meeting of the Board of Trade

The first case'consldered was that ofa steel and Iron oompany lpokiug'forasltefor •• rolling mill, Representatives of thocompany had been In town looking over theground. Ttioy found two "sites wMch theysaid wore suitable. Tbo matter of securingoptions on these two sites was placed in thebands* of tho committee on manufactures,with instructions to act with all posalblopromptness. t

A second concern looking-for a site' Vtasanaxle'factory. ...The committee on manufac-tures was instructed to get representatives ofthe company here to look over the town andfind out what la required to get them tolocate here.

A third communication was from a7 leathermanufacturer, claiming to have from (21,000to (60,000 capital, who asked what bonus thetown would give him to. locate here. Thismatter, too, was referred to tho commlttoeon manufacture's!.

The matter of the license fee demanded byneighboring towns, Eockaway, Fort Oramand Stanhope, of Dover merchants doingbusiness in those placet, was brought up anddiacusenl.

Lightning's Pranba. -It seems strange that lightning can strike

within.ten feet of a person's residence andthe inmates of the house be unaware of it,and yet that is what happened at the Berryhomestead on McFailand Btreot last Fridayafternoon during the severe thunder show-er. During the storm there • was aheavy crash and Mr. Berry remarked thatthe lightning must have struck " BomewberoIn the near viomltr." O n Sunday a visitorcalled Mr. Berry's attention to the fact thatthe clothes posts in his yard were all splin-tered by lightning, and it was only then thatMr. Berry learned how near the lightninghad struck. The post damaged tbo most waswithin ten feet of the side of the bouse, andthe lightning had apparently run along thewire Hue to three others in the yard and had,besides, stripped bark from two trees towhich tho wire was attached The old adagethat "lightning never strikes twice in thesame place" wns splintered as badly as theclothes post, for Mr. Berry showed where oneof the broken posts bad been struck by light-ning twent-y-n've years ago. At that time,Mr. tBerry said he wan sitting at his din-ing-room window watching the rain, whenthere was a terrific crash of lightning andit.seomed as If the house had beeu struck,but no evidence of It could be neon. Afterthe storm it was found that this post, whichwas again struck last Friday, had been splin-tered by tho lightning.

Mrs Charles DoShazo of Sussex street, hada narrow escape from sorlous injury duringthe storm. A bolt of lightning struck theRmall tower on the bouBe and shattering theslate roof ran along the metallic sheathing totbe water plpw and tbence to tbo kitchen,where Mrs. DeBhazo was at work near tbosink.

If someone would only dispose of the horde of worth-lees curs that run about the streets frighten-ing horses and chasing bicycle riders, \ hewould confer a favor on humanity that wouldentitle them to the commendation of genera-tions both present and to come.

While one of the wagons of Welsh Bros.'.Bhow was being driven through the boroughon Tuesday one o f the wheels ran off lettingthe wagon down on the ground; The streetwas thronged with school children on theirway to school and the cry "Look out for thelion,*' was raised, causing the little ones toscamper in every: direction. But after thepanic had subsided It was found that thewagon was empty.

Those hi the neighborhood of the furnacelast;Friday afternoon were regaled by thesight of a man running as fast as his pedalequipments would carry him and shouting atthe top of bis voice for help; with a woman,who resides in that neighborhood, armed-witha huge carving knife in hot pursuit. Thecause of trouble could not be ascertained andas both belong to respectable families theirnames are withheld. < ' :

' . Musical Entertainment. ' <The musical festival held at the M. E.

Church on Monday evening, under tho direc-tion of Bentley L. Rice, was a suoceas inevery, particular. The selections were wellrendered, especially the. choruses, Owing totbe threatening shower, a number werekept away. However, there was a well filledhouse, a large number from Andover, BuddLake and Fort Morris being present. Anappeal was mode to the chorus, to repeat themusical on Wednesday evening, with theunderstanding that the proceeds bo divided"equally between the -Presbyterian Churchand Mr. Rice. The chorus gave their unani-mous consent. A large number ot the audi-ence voted also to have it repeated, but fail-ing to get a majority of the trustees of theM. E, Church present to allow the use of thechurch the matter was dropped. We under*Btand the reason for this objection was alittle sensitiveness on the port of some ot thetrustees. Wo firmly believe there was nointent to Bhow any injustice to the Presby-

terian frionds. It was unfortunate, however,that the trustees who refused U> vole the useof tho church had not been tboughtf ul enoughto have given their consent with the under-loading there should be Home little modifica-tion of the prog^n-Jlino. Let ua rememberwe are not all perfect and that mistakes hap-pen in even the best regulated affairs. Whenour Presbyterian friends pass around tlieirsubscription for remodeling tlieir church theywill very soon observe tbat the trustees ofthe M. E. Church did not intend to snub themby not voting the use of tbe church to repeatthe musical. We hope everybody will " keepsweet," not judge harshly and remember weare still all friends and neighbors. We dohope, however, that Mr. Rice can be per-Buaded to come tousagaiu in the near futureand give us another musical.

LPARAFFINE

Prom -Wnloli "D. j . " Talnks DoverPeople Might Learn a Lesson.

Some time whon the Board of Educationundertakes to boss the people of Bandolphtownship or Dover town you may recall thislittle Incident with profit.

Last spring, ten days after town meeting,the people of South Orange elected a gentle-man named Bergbard to tbe Board of Educa-tion by a vote of two to one over a brightyoung fellow named Duffleld, who ran againsthim. He was made olerk of the Board andhas taken the school census. They pay theirprincfpol at South Orange High school (2,200a year. It gat in tbe nir somehow that theBoard of Education would not re engage Mr.Me Andrews, the principal, for reasons satis-factory to themselves and then the fat was Inthe flre. At .the next meeting of the Boarda laxge number ot ibe inhabitants of "theschool district were out and they "roasted"the Board pretty thoroughly—BO much SO thatthe Board adjourned and left the hall amidthe Jeers and hisses of the people who remainedand elected a ohairmau and secretary, "roast-ed" the Board Bome more and appointed a com-mittee to waft upon the Board, passed resolu-tions for the guidance of the Board of Educa-tion and adjourned to meet; again at the callof the oommlttee. " " :

The committee called the meeting last weekIn the town ball—village hall, rather-afterapplying in vain to the Board ot Educationfor tbe use of a room in the school for theirpurpose. • The committee was made up ofiiome of the ablest men In the village andDoedlesstosay th». report was well writtenand excellently read. It took the groundthat the. Board of Education was only theservant of t ie public doing business for thepublic, and disbursing the publio's money,and when the public wanted to got Into theBoard's meeting* there was no good reasonwhy It should have to -pus a policeman onone.slde of' th3r meeting room' door and ajanitor on the other a. the committee had todo. The report was received and tbe com-mittee Instructed to continue to have an eye ontheBoard of Education and call a meeting ofthe voters of the school district whenever Intheir Judgment they think it necessary. .*. *,. "

Now a great deal of stress was laid uponthe fact that five of tbe U»chers boarded wltbone of the members of the Board, but thatfact was as well known to* the people, who•oowed Mr. Duffleld under at election, beforeelections, now. And I can't see much use ofbeing so virtuously Indignant about It atpresenti, exceptto show that the mind of theclear public is very changeable and the people'who. strew their garment, in your horse'spath toja/ are very apt to ory7" Crucifyhim I" a Week hence. -' :•.•;•••'„•,*•'.; •}:'J". .7'!

That last meeting seemed to be all one-sided and tbe one man who.took the part otthe board was listened to -respectfully, but
