to Jersey City-To Be Torn Down.
Especial Correspondence


New YORK. June There is church
building in Jersey City recently disposed
of under the hammer of the auctioneer.
the history Of which began far back into
the history of New York. The congrega-
ton which built this church was the First
PRESBYTERIAN. of New York. The original
members met in 171I in the New York
CITY hall. which was then in Wall street
on the spot where afterwards stood the
Federal hall. in which George Washing
ton was inaugurated first president of the
United States, and now the location OF
the United States sub treasury building.
Three years later they built a church on
Wall street. about block nearer Broad
way. Afterward they enlarged this build
ing. and still later built new one. This
new edifice was removed brick 10y brick
and regretted in Jersey City in lH4f. and
is the building recently sold at auction.
During period of nearly two centuries
the old church has been crowded from
one location TO another. and now IN It's old

The man who had brought him to thu

Mr.. Brice smiled complacently and
cheerfully and from that time on his name

He is a young man. with the Wall

Though the most sensible and careful
people who Nave the best interests Of
their daughters at heart dress young
girls Of this age with girlish simplicity,
regardless Of their means, there is always
n class which feels that it must assert
itself and docl; their young daughters out
in the most expensive Of costumes and
goods, and put jewels upon them, which
of right should never be worn except by
married women, and thus the keen edge
of young girls taste is blunted, and by
the time she has married life holds moth
ing for her that she has not had, and she
grows dissatisfied with life itself.
There are numbers Of high toned board
ing schools in New York where the young
girls spend more money in cosmetics than
they ought TO in dress. and they often do
themselves irreparabe injury by their in
judicious actions and they try to outvle
each other in jewelry, in fine dresses and
chewing gum, to say nothing Of iiirtations.
To see a bevy Of these young girls file into
church is saddening; TO see them out Tor
a walk enough to make your blood boil
and your fingers Jingle to box their silly
little ears, but they outgrow the most OF
it. and tho rest-well, that grows with
their growth.

Common sense is struggling hard for
say in the dressing Of our future mothers
in-law. and the pretty faces of the young
girls show its influence. Yet there is
room for improvement, for no young girl
needs q hustle to make her back ache and
tilt Ecr dress up behind.
The pretty and girlish wrap is made Of
feckcd summer cheviot. and has tiny
half cape which is trimmed with brown
braid the wrap being Of light Havana
brown, and a sash Of the lime kind Of
braid. only wider fastcns gracefully in
front This is worn in travelling and on
all ordinary outdoor occasions. The
pretty dress of the young girl beside her
is of striped wool goods, scarlet and blue,
with dark blue drapery and jacket. The
full vest is Of red surah. and the collar
and pointed belt in front are of blue vel
vet. This same suit is also made up in
washable goods of several kinds, and IS
very suitable for girls Of ~ 10 10.

Hats for young embryo angels are as
various as the girls themselves, but we
present Il few Of the prettiest and most
becoming. though almost any hat looks
well over the bright faces where childhood
is giving place to young ladyhood. Dark
straws, with wide brims turned up or
down. or trimmed with flowers, feathers
or ribbons, are the oftenest seen.

Standing within the structure where this

again the regret which must have per

talked about lately by reason of his tax

ten Years. He is one of our remarkable
American productg-one of the strange
things that grow in the new sod Of a new

day he is red headed ten millionaire,
with bis necktie bow quite AZ likely TO be

Fosters money, made the first venture

collaterals in sight. Brise gave him his
notes, and after all settlements had been
made Foster toll him he would tear up
the notes. as they were no good anyway.
You'll be fool if you do, said Brice
confidently, and Foster, who believed in
his business qualities and good judgment,
listened to him ald did not destroy the
notes.
