THE CENTRAL CHURCH.
Interior improvements Which Have
Been Made During the Summer
MOntlis---A Benefit Concert.

<The interior of the Central Presbyterian
church on Second avenue, opposite the
court house square, has been greatly
beautified during the summer months,
and will be opened for the first time to
the congregation and to the public next
Tuesday evening, on the occasion of a
concert to be given for the benefit of the
church. The enterprising ladies of the
congregation have done all in their means
to improve the interior decorations, and
well have they succeeded. The contract
for this work was let to Mr.. F. A. Lun>
dahl, of Moline. and the task, which he
has about completed, is indeed credit
to his artistic skill
The background OF the walls and cell
ing is a delicate blue tint. There
is "A dark brown dado extending
| around the interior of the editice,
above which are beautifully exc
| cuted designs On the ceilings bes
tween the rafters are variegated panels.
while in the archway back of the pull
pit and organ is sky blue, soft>
ened by the representation of distant
clouds. The entire woodwork, pews, pull
pit, doors and rafters have been finished
in a cherry hue and the beveled edges
of the rafters have been touched with
genuine gold leaf The woodwork on
the organ has been changed in color from
ash TO cherry, and the pipes have been
painted in blending tints.
The ladies of the church who have as
sumed the burden of this undertaking
are deserving of the funds, OF portion Of
them at least, necessary for the work
consequently

Fishermen Arrested by
Delaware.

TIE sturgeon fishing having gotten
poor at Bay side, Thomas J. Torton and
Bedford Wood moved up to Port Penn
last Friday where the fishing was let
ter. On Wednesday afternoon, depu-
ty Sheriff =. j. Linch with Charles
Shu6ert and twelve Of his men came to
Mr. Torton's sloop which lay at anchor
OF Port Penn with warrant to arrest
him for fishing west of the black buoy
below Reedy Island. They were pro-
hitited from boarding the sloOp by
captain Anderson and when they were
informed that Mr.. Torton was not
tn IL as he had gone t. Delaware City
with fish they TOOK without warrant
two Of his S. ifs and nets, a clear ease
Of stealing. One wds tied lehiud the
sl0op and Tie other lay at anchor in
the stream nearer shore for hatbOr.
Eelford Wood was arrested ab0arl his
vessel and guGId0d during We'd
nesday night. On Thursday lie was
taken ashore and released on bail.
The other boats were out fl hing ut The
time and We're warned by sigl;I from
Tort0n's sloop not to come in. Nj.
Torton with his remaining boats came
to Pelmsgrove on Thursday morning
when he and thre9 of his mel went TO
Salem and swore out afidavits BE-
f0le Prosecutor "A. Ii Shape against
those who stole his boats. Mr.. Shape
proceeded at one to lay the matter be-
fore Gov. Albeit who has promised to
protect them in the emergency arisen.
This will be a test case to decide the
question whether Delaware can pro-
hibit Jerseymen from fishing in the bay
as they have been accustomed to do
from times immemorial. Jersey au-
thorities promise to leave 10 stone un-
turned to defend the fishermen in
their rights and to recover their losses
if possible.
