Rev. Peter Kip at the North
Reformed Church.

Rev. Peter Kip, of Cleveland,
Ohio, son of Mr.. Edo Kip, preached
at the North Reformed church last
Sunday. The sermon was note
worthy for its clear and practical
treatment of one of the most alb
struse, and spiritual subjects with
which the pulpit has to do-name-
ly, the nature work and availability
of the Holy Spirit Rev. Mr.. Kip's
style is crisp, authentic, direct and
plain, at the same time it discloses
thorough culture as relates to olearn-
ing and to men, and how to clothe
the great subjects of the Bible in
language current with the intelli-
gent business men, and in other
respects to lay hold of their atten-
ton.

"I'lI Never Drink"

Even child may preach a SER
mon, and he may not have studied
deeper than to discern the differ
ence between right and wrong. in
order to do it. Recently we noticed
a number of men who should have
known better, indulging to excess
in intoxicants. A lad probably not
a dozen years old was also a spec
tator, looking on with disgusted
air. In answer to joking inquiry
whether he would not like a drink,
the boy replied earnestly; "I'm a
temperance boy; I'll nevey drink I"
We are not running temperance
paper, but the incident-which
was sermon in itself-is deserv-
ing of larger audience than it
had at the time, and we give it ac-
cordingly.

A New Reform Club.

An organization to be known as
the Burdick Temperance Club was
organized in the w. C. T. U. Hall
Saturday night. Rev. Arthur S.
Burrows is president and Mr..
Charles A. Rice corresponding
secretary. The following from
contributed article to the
Nevs explains the object of the
new organization: "An important
plank in the platform of this club
is that which prohibits partisan or
political discussion in the meetings,
which-to state it mildly-seems
not only wise precaution in view
of the effect of political talk on for
mer temperance enterprises, but
also equitable, as while requesting
the non-introduction of partisan
speech, the club has set up no creed
or party standard to which it re-
quires allegiance. As a new club
we are proud of our cause, and ouI
loyal, energetic leader, and hopeful
of acquiring strength and doing
good. The next meeting to which
all men interested in antagonizing
the influence of the dram shop, anG
helping those who need to be res
cued therefrom are invited, will be
held in the same place at 8 o'clock
Saturday evening""

Commencement Exercises.

The Committee of the Board of
Education having the matter in
charge announce that the Com
mencement exercises of the High
School will be held June a6th in the
old North Reformed church. The
committee regret it could not pro-
cure larger building. The
officers of the Congregational
church very kindly offered the use
of the Tabernacle, but the building
chosen, besides being in central
location, has piano and conven-
fences of ante rooms, etc., which
make it more desirable. A large
gathering is expected, and all pos
sible provision will be made for

Passaic Sewage Flows.

The calamity which the thousands
of people of JerseyCity and Newark
feared SO long has at last come to
pass. The legal representatives of
the two cities have been duped and
the enemy has captured the field
while the lawyers have been sleep
ing.
The sewage of Passaic City is
being dumped into the Passaic
River and Jersey City is getting the
full benefit of the pollution Sew
era1 months ago Counsellor E. l.
Pierce, of Newark, and Corporation
Counsel Edwards, of this city insti-
tuted proceedings with the view of
proving the dangers which could at
tend the emptying of Passaic City's
sewage into the river. For some
time nothing has been done in re-
lation to the matter. No hearings
have taken place since last winter
In the meantime the officials of
Passaic City have continued the
work of sewering the city, and to-
day the filth is being emptied just
as though nobody had ever pro-
tested against the pollution. If
Jersey City is to be saved now she
will have to secure requisition
forthwith. The Passaic City sewers
are communicating the river at a
rate fearful to contemplate.-Jer

ChiIdren's Day at the First Re-
formed Church.

Reformed church celebrated its
Goth anniversary last Sunday eve
ming. The Rev. ]. W. Conklin of
Arcot Mission. India, was the
speaker. He described the life of

years, he described his personality
at length. The report showed

that the prospects for the ensuing

Part of the Lightning's Work.

During the electric storm of
Tuesday evening the electric lights
throughout Mr.. 0. S. Freeman's S
residence on the Boulevard were
heard to snap throughout the
house and Immediately after the IL
Elimination ceased. Investigation
show ed that the lightning
had come in contact with
the wires and burned out the
transmitter. A few moments later
there was vivid flash and deaf
ening thunder as the fiery element
entered the kitchen and came in
contact with the stationary range
making a report like a cannon.
The family were at supper in the
dining room but Mrs. Freeman was
thrown from her chair and is sure
that she saw ball of fire on the
floor No serious damage was
done. The electric street light on
the corner of Maple street and the
Boulevard was also put out, and is
still out.

Of Triple Advantage.

"Redeeming the time because
the days are evil. The Methodist
minister evidently believes in this
motto; for, when pasturing his
horse on the tall grass around the
doors of the Methodist church,
while holding the tether of the
animal in one hand, he may be
seen with book in the other, dill
igently coming its pages. The
process is one of triple advantage.
1t supplies food to the pastors
mind, fodder for the beast, and
obviates the necessity of using a
lawn mower on the church prem

went fishing last Saturday after
noon and while sitting on the dock

Fortunately he is good swimmer,
but is not in the habit of going in
the water with his clothes on.
However he succeeded in reaching
the shore with no other damage
than good wetting. He does not
know whether he was asleep or
not, but thinks the fall was due to

The Filth On Our Streets.

The Filth On Our Streets.
Why do we sprinkle our streets ,
Somebody answers, "To lay the
dust, of course" oh /! if there was
nothing but dust to lay, the sprink-
ling would be we'll enough. 1t
would be like light shower, which
falls in midsummer, and makes
everything fresh and sweet. A
little dust would be none the worse
for wetting; and nobody would be
hurt by it, the moment the sun
shines out.
Unfortunately, our streets con-
tain great deal besides clean
earth, or pulverized rock. There
are endless impurities mixed with
these. The animals that traverse
our streets deposit large quantities
of animal manure and other excre-
tions. Nor have we mentioned the
human ANIMALS that come pouring
out of every saloon, splitting tobac-
CO juice, and adding to the general
accumulation of street filth. This
latter is mixed daily with pulver-
lied limestone and other rock,
and with the various foreign SUBJ
stances that find their way to the
pavements and public thorough
fares. If we were to call in a
chemist and ask him to analyze
| the different substances that are
deposited on our streets, we would
be surprised to find what a mix
ture of unwholesome ingredients
have been brought together, and
we can hardly think that we would
be willing to take these substances
into our lungs from free choice.
And yet, that is the very thing
that we do. We not only let it be
blown about in the air and breathe
it in the form of dust, in a perfect
ly dry state, but we take particular
pains to sprinkle it down with our
watering carts, and then leave it
on the pavement as sort of Shiny
bed, ready for the action of the
suns rays, or to be evaporated
more slowly in the shade. On a
warm morning, in summer or
winter, it greets our olefactories in
way that is anything but pleas
ant; and after taking it into the
lungs and thence into the general
circulation, it mingles with the
blood, the bodily tissues appropri-
ate it, and it becomes part and
parcel of our very selves. This is
what we do with the filth that is
on our streets; or at least with a
large per cent. of it. We keep this
rubbish lying around, wetting and
moistening it several times every
day; or we let it dry out and the
wind gets full sway at it. In other
words, we serve up this admirable
confection in two ways: in the dry
state lin the form of a powder) and
in the wet state, as a sort of steam
or vapor; but it finds its way to the
lungs, all the same. 1t helps to
make up a sort of malaria, for
which the people take medicines.
What shall we do with this often
sive street rubbish ? Just what
they do with it in the cities and
towns of Great Britian-in the older
civilizations-sweep it up at night
and cart it away. Why rot? There
are hundreds of idle men on our
streets who would be glad of the
job; and they would convert our
cities and towns into pleasant
places to live, instead of mud holes
Tor dust hcles) that they now are;
and the air would be fit to breathe.
Main Avenue especially is in a
dirty condition for which there
appears to be no excuse.

The GAMBS SLOPED.
Gardner and Cheshire Arrested for
Gambling in Open Defiance
of The Law
But They Preferred Idaho's Sunny Cline
to Pullman witha Pros
pect Of Jail.

A few weeks ago mrve was made
to stop the gambling evil in Pullman.
For few days the move proved sue
cess, but soon the gamblers, thinking
the wave of sentiment against them had
subsidized, returned and again put their
games in operation. A few DAYS passed
and they felt secure, bat last Saturday
evening they we're again forcibly re-
minded that Pullman would have none
of it. Late in the evening in question
the constable, on complaint issued,
arrested r. c. Gardner and James
Cheshire, charging them with gamb
ling, and also placed under arrest NJ
Il. Leitch, proprietor of the Mint
saloon, and J. r. Johnson, proprietor
of the Artesian saloon, on a charge of
allowing gambling to be carried on in
their business places. Monday at ten
o'clock the four appeared before Justice
IJOptltSL- W htlC oO1HSOll Wd1fSu CA
animation and gave bonds for his ap-
pearaDce before the superior court
Mr.. Leltch pleaded guilty and will have
a preliminary examination next Tuesday.
The attorneys in the case were G. W.
Stearns for the state and Bull & Bull
for the defendants.
Gardner and Cheshire would not
enter plea and were bound over to
the superior court in the sum of $3.50
each. They were turned over to the
constable and left in company with
their ATTORNEYS to fix and sign their
bonds, but before the same was com
pleted, they being set at liberty on
their honor, decided to try Idaho air
for what allied them, and to all reports
they are still trying it. Justice is for
the time cheated out of the two men,
but Pullman has no more public gamb-
ling.

the account of the great importance
attached, and the benefit tie state would

their decision may be l6QEed for soon.
That it will be decided soon and well. all
believes in right and justice are salts
fed, and the hope and we'll wishes of
the patriotic, legal citizens Of the state
viii be found on that side0f the question.
Had the college never beer thrown into
litigation the state would now be reap-
ing large benefits from the institution,
and it would have been, by this time.

The Star Stables.

Mathewson Il Reider's new livery barn
is a magnificent structure for business
of that class. Magnificent, not only so
far as the outside appearance Of the
building is concerned, but also as re-
CARDS the internal arrangement, and the
stocking of the barn.
In the line of rigs a man can find just
what he could ask. Everyone can be
suited, whether he wishes to drive a
team, one horse, ride horse back, or be
taken somewhere by a careful driver
The stable is arranged throughout for
convenience, neatness, and to Ell every
want of its patrons, and the proprietors
will add every new facility us soon as
there can be a possible demand for it.
1t is pleasure to see every business
that is represented in Pullman run in
the best manner possible.
