WORKINGMEN'S CLUBS.
The Working Girls Have Set the

The successful Inauguration of the
Working Girls Club has set some of the
local labor leaders talking about the
feasibility of social clubs with educa-
tional features for workingmen. De-
sirable places, where the workers can as

would like to see established They de
plore the fact that too mango the resorts

labor they employ. Those VINO have
watched the remarkable decrease in 0issi-
patton since the establishment of work

fluenee which these institutions exert for
the determination of the workers OF all
trades, are especially Interested in the de-

The wench Was the Burglar.

Special to the Sunday Morning Mems.
NEWARK, Dec. z, 1ss9.-The house of the
Rev. Edwin f. Smallat No. 266 Clinton
avenue, was entered by thieves lastsnight
and small amount of silverware taken.
Virginia Cox, colored, who had been a
servant for the family for a week, con-
fessed to Detective Cosgrove that she was
the burglar. She wanted to go back to
Virginia and she arose early. hid an $50
silk dress and one $50 dress under pile
of ashes in the yard, put 500 worth of
silverware in the coal bin, and then
opened the front door of the house, ran
sacked drawers and closets and alarmed
the family.
Her idea was that after the folks were
sure burglars had entered the house she
could, after few nights, take the
dresses and silver away and sell them
She is twenty five years old. She is
locked up at Police Headquarters.

counsel for the congregation of Mish-

appealed to Judge Depue this afternoon
for writ of cettlorari to review proceed
ings OF the congregation by which certain
members thereof were disfranchised and
debarred from voting at an election for
officers of said congregation and also to
review certain other illegal proceedings.
The story is to the effect that the minor
ity. consisting of nine members, con-
spired to deprive the majority, consisting
of thirteen members, eff their rights to
vote and control the proceedings OF the
congregation and for that purpose pre-
ferred unfounded charges against five OF
the majority members and debarred them
of their rights so that the nine could run
the affairs of the body. Afteran extended
argument the Judge directed counsel to
appear at his home this afternoon when
he would grant the solicited relief

narrow escape from death at noon today
while on way from Newark to Elizabeth.
He was a passenger on the Pennsylvania

n seat in the smoker, and as the train was
flying past North Elizabeth rifle bullet
came crushing through the window by
which Mr.. Benisch sat and just grazing
his forehead, buried itself in the opposite
panel of the car. Another passenger sit
ting opposite Mr.. Benisch had almost as
close call.
The shot was fired deliberately at the
train by one of three youths who We're
standing near the track, and who fled
after discharging the weapon.
Before the conductor could be notified
and the train stopped the young fellows
had disappeared in the woods. Mr.. Ben
isch was completely unnerved by the &C
currence. The railroad officials promise
to make an energetic effort to detect the
