The Board, by and with the advice OF the
County Physician, should then a
a system of daily rations for the inmates
and officers of the institutions. No de

of rations thus established, except on the
written order of the County Physician III

The head of each institution should
then daily draw on the ~storekeeper Tor the
rations needed in his institutions. The
storekeeper should charge the same

There should be a monthly examination
of the accounts of the storekeeper and

be found whether or not the daily pei

Various comments were made by the
half dozen Freeholders about the

AT the Park Reformed Church.

An enjoyable entertainment was
given last night by the Young Peoples
Association of Park Reformed Church
under the direction of T. w. WEIGH,
captain of Company f.
The affair was largely attended and
a neat little sum of money was real
lied. Half of the proceeds will go to
the Sunday school treasury. The bal
ance will be used in assisting to clear
the church of its indebtedness.
The programme opened with a piano
duet by Misses Eta Schubert and
Allie Pennel. This was followed by a
sweetly rendered solo by Miss Eva
Sloane. The junior class of the Y.
NJ. G. A. gymnasium. composed of a
dozen or more embryo athletes, under
the training of Mr.. Benjamin r. Dixon,
next entertained the audience with
an exhibition of dulnb-bell practice.
A piano solo by Miss Schubert and a
vocal solo by Miss Maggie Graham
preceded the second appearance of
The junior class athletes, this time
on parallel bars. Another vocal solo
by Miss Sloane closed the programme,
after which refreshments were served
by Misses Maggie and Ida Graham, Eva

THE sHIFTLEss HOUSEWIFE.
Sell Her for a Dog and Then shoot the
Dog, Says Evangelist King.

Sell Her for n Dog and Then Shoot the
Dog, Says Evangelist King.
Tomorrow Evangelist Lincoln King
starts for fresh fields and pastures new.
His sermon of farewell was preached
in the Tabernacle last evening. De-
spite the boldness with which Mr..
King has been attacking the vices of
our city people, hardly a vacant seat
could be seen in the large building. As
the congregation filed slowly in, the
choir, under the leadership of Mr.. Will
liam Vance, sang sweetly MY Son,
Give Me Thy Heart and several other
hymns. Then Mr.. Scudder prayed
that God would cause the good seed
sown among his people during the past
week to increase and multiply a thou
sand fold. Another hymn, and then
Mr.. Scudder made a brusque, manly
appeal to his congregation TO contrib
ute literally to the collection of the
evening, the last taken up during the
week, and the ouly one which goes to
the evangelist. The subject of Mr..
Kings ermon was Woman the be
ing that leads men to paradise or
drives them to perdition.
I say of his sermon, but / am wrong.
Mr.. Kings sentences last night did not
bear the stamp of long and careful
striving after euphonious, lengthy
words, nor yet did they trench on the
weighty ground of controversy. There
was nothing soothing in Mr.. Kings
remarks, He encysts his thought in
short, incisive sentences that cut to
the bone. With the merry ease of a
Horace he combines the biting sar-
casm of a Juvenal. His thoughts are
drawn from the experience of a practi-
cal man who is not afraid to say what
he means. He talks common sense,
but is lever common place. Woman,
according to Mr.. King, is the mainstay
of mans existence. He depicted the
character of the ideal woinan with
true Western gallantry, but scarified
the gossipy shiftless house wife with
manly vehemence. Mr.. King advised
the man cursed with such a wife to sell
her for a yellow dog and then to shoot
the dog. The hearth, said he, is the
cradle Of Christianity. The woman's
chapter of the Bible, Proverbs XXI,
furnished the evangelist with food for
the rest of his sermon. The after
meeting in the lecture hall was
crowded and many rose for prayers.
Mr. Scudder is perfectly satisfied with
Mr.. Kings method, and told his peo-
pie if they did not like him they could
stay away. Mr. King very rarely
spends more than one week at any
church; and SO there is nothing uncoln-
non in his terminating his engagement
so soon. 81 have done my duty said
Mr.. King, in closing. MY witness is
with God. Could | have remained

Gus Humbroch and his camera are
destined TO become as notorious as Darius
Green and his flying machine.
Gus is proprietor OF the Windmill, but
the artistic accomplishments necessary to
successfully mix and dispense 'whiskey
sours and settlers to the thirsty coterie
of Hill politicians who patronize it are a
trife too tame for Gus. In short, Gus is
determined to achieve fame as IN artist.
He has Joined the army of amateur pho
tographers and fitted up q studio some
where in the loft of the windmill"
Occasionally Gus grips his camera and
strolls leisurely off into some picturesque
locality in quest of something to take-I
mean with his camera. He will take"
ANYTHING which promises him a good
picture. Strange he has overlooked Cap
tain McNulty.
Gus does not yet aspire to photograph
ing objects when in motion by the in
Simultaneous process.
Yesterday Gus attempted ito take" the
Monastery. | don't know how true it is,
but the friends of Gus say he covers his
camera with a red cloth. Just as the col
lossal piece of architecture was focused,
to the infinite and disgust of the
aspiring photographer there emerged from
a doorway a procession of priests, whose
motion would render the picture a hope
less blur.
Gus became frantic now this is what
his friends tell mel, and snatching up the
red cloth waved it about his head, and
excitedly shouted

pleasel'
The holy fathers, not knowing but that
the flag was adanger Signal-poSS1bly they
mistook Gus and the few curious loiter-
ers for the advance guard Of a socialistic
mob-broke ranks and retired into their
customary clustered s~eclusion.
Gus next effort was to portray Alder
man Prigge, seated in a buggy behind
his handsome and peerless racer. The
horse is really a beautiful specimen-"a
'orse as his a 'orse"-and the pride and
admiration of the Gutenberg race-goers.
But oh, how Gus machine mutilated the
outlines of the noble animal. 1t wasn't
Gus fault. No. Nor his cameras either.
The horse pricked its ear just as Gus got
stthe bead on him. The animals ears
were elongated, and the statuesque Alder
man found himself in the picture holding
the reins Of something that looked awfully
like a mule.
IA funloving son Of Erin stood in the
crowd of anticipating friends as Gus, with
sleeves rolled to the elbows and hands
stained with a yellow acid, rushed from
his mystery of mysteries" and held up
the picture for inspection. After listening
to the jibes of the Alderman's friends
about the transformation Of his beautiful
racer, the grinning Hibernian stepped for
ward and asked
'sAn' is that the gintleman?' pointing to
his Aldermanic highness.

An Exciting Encounter Between a Con-
ductor and an UNLIMITED Visitor.
James Clarkson, a freight conductor on
the Pennsylvania Railroad, residing at
No. 435 Tonnele avenue, and Patrick Ker-
rigan, of No. 416 Henderson street, were
before Justice Stilsing this morning,
charged with assaulting each other.
Kerrigan's head was bound around with
a blood-stained bandage and his f..ce was
covered with bruises, while Clarkson was
free from marks.
Policeman Smith said that he found
Kerrigan wandering about the streets
last night intoxicated, with his
head bleeding. He told the
policeman that be had been assaulted by
an unknown man in a shanty at Hender-
son and Fifth streets. The policeman
went there a d arrested Clarkson, who
acknowledged that he struck Kerrigan.
This morning Clarkson told the Justice
that hi was eating his supper in the
shanty where he belonged, when Kerri-
gan came in and began to raise a disturb
ance. He drew a knife and attempted to
assault Clarkson, who, having no oppor-
tunity for escape, defended himself with a
shovel.
Both men were discharged.

The Fa1l River strike.

1t is refreshing to find an out and
out Democratic paper state the facts
with reference to the tariff. Here is
THE JERSEY CITY News, as a shining
example. Speaking of the great Fall
River strike, by which 6, 1000 weavers
have been forced out of employment,
it says:
The great strike of mill operatives at Fall
River, which promises to win them the increase
in wages that they ask for, is v~ariously regarded
ing. The truth is that tariff has nothing to do
with the trouble that is always either smoldering
or breaking out in Fall River. That city is
special case.
And this is true, not only of Fall
River, but of nine-tenths of the strikes
in the United States. Elizabeth Daily.

A Contrast.

One bill merely provided that the
State should pay a certain publisher
$3. so a piece for several thousand
copies of a history which nobody wants
to read. 1t went through the Senate
like creased lightning.
Two other bills were passed by the
Assembly. One strikes at the gas i'm
position suffered by the people of
Jersey City, and the other protects
them against the water swindlecates.
Both are obviously in the interest of
the people. Both are in danger of suf-
location in the Senate.
Why should there be this difference?
Why should the interests of an indi-
vidual be pushed and those of the
people neglected?
Both bills should be reported from
the committees which are strangling
them, and either passed or rejected by
the Senate,
Let the people know who are its
friends and who are the servants OF
the corporations.
