A Big Church Excursion.

A merry party Of excursionists left the
Lafayette depot of the Central Railroad,
bound for Ocean Grove, about half-past
eight Yesterday morning. The party was
composed of the scholars, officers and
teachers of the Sunday schools, n
numerous friends of the South Bergen
Reformed, Claremont Presbyterian and
Christ Episcopal churches. A merrier
party could not be found. All were happy,
both young and old, and as the happy
crowds wendell their way to the cars he
sound of merry laughter could be heard
far and neal
There were in the neighborhood of a
thousand persons, who were placed in six
teen cars, run in sections of eight cars
each. A quick run was made to the des-
tination, considering the occasion, all ar
irving in safety. The day was spent in
the usual manner for picnics. Not an &C
cident occurred during the day, and most
of the pleasure seekers were sorry when
the hour to go had ONE The morning
was quite pleasant, but the latter part of
the afternoon was damp, which proved
somewhat of a drawback to the pleasure
of some of the mothers, on account OF the
children.
At a quarter to five O'Clock all were
comfortably seated in the cars, ready for
the start for home, where they all arrived
safe and sound about eight o'clock.

The Price of Two Lives.

County Collector P. H. Shields, of Pas
sale county, as administrator of Blake G.
and John Joseph Ruff, the two young
men killed at the Van Houten street pat
erson) crossing of the Erie Railway on
December s, has brought two suits
against the company on behalf of the
father of the deceased, John Jacob Ruff.
Damages are sought for to the amount
of $40, 900, $4,000 in each case. Mr.. q. M.
Ward is retained by the plaintiff. The
documents were filed yesterday. Actions
in tort are to be brought in the Circuit
Court, and will likely come up for trial
next term. The documents maintain
the brothers met their death
through negligence of the COM
pany on account of the absence
of a Waterman at the crossing. $1,000 is
wanted for funeral expenses in each case
and $4,000 for loss incurred by the
father. Mr.. Shields was appointed adj
ministrator by Surrogate King. Although
the company expressed their willingness
to do something for the father and sur
viving son, who was also quite seriously
hurt, yet their counsel has grown weary
at the delay and has now decided to bring
immediate suit. 1t is thought another
action may be brought before the court in
behalf of Reuben Riff, who still suffers
with injuries sustained in the accident.

CAPTAIN Hopper, of the Central Rail
road, several months ago gave Wilkinson
the right to tie his boat up at the dock
where it was found. Inc SaW-nler Sdlu
then that he built the craft at Baltimore
and floated it North, but that statement
was untrue. Two or three years ago the
man came to the city and slept in Learey's
coal yard, at the corner OF Madison and
Lafayette streets. He stayed about the
place for several days, and then he built a
hut in the yard out of old boards. On
clear days he went out with his machine
sharpening knives and saws. In stormy
weather he designed and began to build
his floating house. With his W hands
he hewed out the frame and timbers, and
one day over a year ago he began to put 1t
together.
"How are you going to float it?" he was
asked. He replied that he would take
down the fence and cart it down to the
river on a truck. He was dissuaded from
doing this, and one day he got a horse and
wagon and carried the boat in sections
over to Harrison, just below Reynolds,
boathouse. There he put it together and
launched it. He lived in it there for a
time and hen he foated it to the Newark
shore and tied it up to the Central Rail
road dock.
His effects will be carefully searched
and it is believed a large sum of money
will be found.
