CHURCH SOCIETIES.
A Local Reunion Of the So-
ciety Of Christian
Endeayor.
THE PARSONAGE SOCIETY.
1t is Formed in the Hedding NJ. i.
Church. Lafayette's
Chapel.

Monday night will be a great time for
the Society of Christian Endeavor, as all
the societies of this order in Hudson
county will hold a local union. The
meeting will be in the Park Reformed
Church, and the preparations for the sue
cess of the convention have been extern
sive. There is no society in any of the
churches that has grown aud extended
throughout the world as rapidly or as
largely as that of the Christian Endeayor.
1t can even claim organizations in China
and in nearly all parts Of the civilized
world. The local union will transact con-
siderable business on Monday night, but
fine programme is being arranged
which will be of much interest to any
who may care to attend. The feature
OF the evening will be the address
by the Rev. Mr.. Chapman, of Philadel-
phia, who was active in the evangelical
services held here last winter under Is.
Fay Mills. Delegates from all the socie-
ties in the county and members of the
society, as many as can, Will be present,
and the church will probably be crowded.
All friends of the Society OF Christian
Endeayor are extended q cordial invita-
ton to attend
ANOTHER NEW SOCIETY.
What would the churches do without
their societies? new one has just been
formed in the Hedding NJ. e. Church
which will be known as the Parsonage
Society. Its duties will be 60 look after
the parsonage, to keep it in perfect
order, attend to It's furnishing,
and do whatever is needed to
make the residence of the pastor
and his family handsome and comfort
able. The officers of this society are J.
III. Richardson, president; Mrs. G. p.
Stevens, vice president; Mrs. w. ID.
Drake, secretary; Mrs. NJ. c. Hall, treas
urer The Executive Committee is com
posed Of Mrs. j. B. Foster, Mrs. A. p.
Chase, Mrs. Eugene Schuyler. The money
which the society will require to carry
out its work will be raised by entertain
ments of various kinds.
THE CHAPEL NEW AGAIN.
The members of the Lafayette NJ. E.
Church are feeling very proud over the
chapel, which will be opened at two
o'clock today for Sunday school, after
having been closed a number of weeks for
repairs. 1t has been entirely renovated;
the exterior has been nicely painted, but
it is the interior which has benefited most
by the improvements. 1t has O new roof
cover, new. carpet, ana handsome new
furniture; besides which it has been re-
painted and repapered
The expense of doing this work has
been considerable and the money has had
to be raised chiefly by entertainments,
and the Kings Daughters of the church
have been very active in the work. The
building iS now a handsome one and well
adapted for the Sunday school, and lee
lures and small entertainments The La
fayette NJ. Il. Church each year seems to
add great Improvements to its already
extensive church possessions.

witty and original Grand Jury has
adopted in dealing with Judge Lip
pincott. Truly the proceedings of

circus. 1t has hit upon a joke more
rich and racy than has been uttered
in the ring in many day, lin truth
merry Jest, right royal, roaring,

that is fun indeed, and we do not
wonder that the members of the jury
are fairly shaking their teeth out with
enjoyment.

THERE is something very singular
about the case OF Mrs. Sheffield and
Michael Sheridan, who were accused
in a police court on Friday of holding
immoral relations towards each
other. The man was committed for
trial; the woman was held for
further examination. How can such
a state of things be accounted for?
Surely, if one is guilty as charged,
the other cannot be innocent, and if
there is doubt respecting the guilt of
one, the other is entitle to the benefit
Of that doubt.
But the strange features Of the case
do not end there. The woman lives
with her husband, who insists that
she is innocent. Her accuser is her
brother, whom she describes as a
monster, and who does not seem to
live on the best of terms with his own
wife. Altogether. the evidence is not
such as we would like to hang cat
Of any responsibility upon.
