If you don't want to ride on Sunday
trains, you needn't; if you don't want
to take your mail from the postoffice
on Sunday, you needn't.
Because you refuse to ride on the
Sunday train and then turn round and
hitch up your hard worked horse to a
Sunday buggy, doesn't make you a
better Christian than your reighbor
who sees that matter in different
light.
1t is as much of a sin to get some one
to tell the news as it is to read it your
self The receiver is as bad as the
thief"
1t is simply a question Of conscience.
Evil be to him who evil thinks"
If you are member Of a certain
church, and that church says it is a
sin to dance, etc., thea it is sin to
violate your solemn obligation.
People should be governed by con-
science and judgment, and not by SEN
timent and hypocricy. l drsplse false
Eodesty.
Some folks will not 60 to the post
office on the Sabbath, but will accept
invitations 20 big dinners on that holy
day; ami, while feasting on rich dishes
prepared on Sunday, whisper into each
others willing ears the Saturday night
misdeeds of their wicked friends.
T suspect there are very few real
Christians left. The most of them are
gone or yet to come.
Sometimes it is the biggest liar who
condemns a neighbor for playing a
social game of euchre; or the most pre-
fame man who talks the loudest of an
others moderate drinking-and so On
through the catalogue.
There are many things that are not
sinful at which some people hold up
their eyes in holy horror and then sin
more g:aringly themselves. .
It seems to me that man who will
not ride on the train or read a news
paper on Sunday should be pure
man in all other respects. His Sunday
meals should be cooked on Saturday.
With the exception Of attending all
the services of his church, or ''going
about doing good" be should stay at
home on that day and remember to
keep it holy in more ways than one:
It is a good thing to be a Christian
in the high conception C: the word.
a Christian is one who is genuinely
modest, unassuming and unaffected;
naturally sensible; seeing and doing
the right consistently; not proud and
vain and naughty; caring not for show
and effect; but kind and good; forget
ting and forgiviug; and tender, loving,
gentle and true. NEEDLE.

1t is reported that blue fishing for the
last ten days has been unusually good at
Barnegat Bay and that tons OF fish are
sent daily to New York and Philadelphia
markets.
The Atlantic City Times says:-'sMil-
lions OF menhaden fish were driven
ashore on Brigantine beach Friday by
bluefish or swapping mackerel. Conduc-
tor Albert PinEerton, Engineer Daniel
Champion, Baggagemaster Cartwright
and Brakeman George Somers of the
Reading Railroad happened on the beach
and caught about fifty pounds of bluefish
and a large shad, which was washed
ashore by the breakers. Champion cap
tured about 300 POUNDS of mossbunkers,
which he salIed down for winter.
Early in the morning and Just after
sunset fine black bass can be caught in
Green pond. but the water is so clear
there that it is of little use to try for
them with thsssun shining on the water
Two anglers VINO fished there on Sunday
night aud Monday morning got several
large bass, both large and small mouth.
The large mouth bass are found along
the wooded shores of the two coyes at
the lower end OF the pond and take frogs
readily, but live bait, if it can be pro-
Cured, is much more certain to lure the
fish.
A few large weakf1sh are being caught
Amboy. but there has been no good run
of fish yet.
Sport a5 Culver's Lake has not been
worth a visit since early in July, but ex-
cellent bass fishing is promised next
month. The peculiarity about this lake
is that the bass are all smail-mouth fish
and hard fighters. Specimens of less than
two pounds in weight are seldom taken.
while five Founders are not uncommon
A number OF fine large weakfish were
taken in the Shrewsbury River one day
last week. One man caught and took
to Seabright a fish weighing six and a
half pounds.
At Newnope, Pa, on the Delaware
River, the bass fishing is excellent at the
present time. On August striped bass
was caught weighing seventeen and a
half pounds.
Joseph Bird and William Sheldon, of
Newark, went to the old Erie bridge over
the Hackensack, on Monday last, and
caught $50 perch and two dozen crabs.

New Jerseymen Acquire for $40, 600
Property Which Cost 81, SOC, 900.
BALTIMORE, Aug. Is. 1S92.-The cele-
brated Dismal Swamp Canal of Vir-
ginia has been sold at public auction by
Theodore S. Garnetr, trustee to Walter
B. Brooks, Jr.. of Baltimore. for $4,000
Dash for the firm of Ross & Sandford,
contractors. of Newark, N. j. The sale

doing business under the firm nam of
the Norfolk & North Carolina Canal
Company. in favor of the Exchange Nat
ional Bank, William Peters, receiver.
They transferred all of the property.
Mr.. Brooks said yesterday that the
canal would be improved and opened by
a syndicate composed of j. B. Sanford

der Brown, Stephen Bonsal, William H.
Bosley and Walter b. Brooks, Jr., of

veIoped.
The history of the canal is very inter-
esting and dates back to the time of
George Washington, who was the origin
ator OF the ditch. The can al costs 81, $780,
600. and it is a matter of great wonder in
Norfolk and Tidewater. Va, that il

He Discusses Nothing More Serious Than
the Best squid for Blue Fishing.
Special to The Jersey City Ne,os.
ATLANTIC CITY. Aug. IS, 1s92.-The ar
rival of Senator Quay here has rather
needlessly stirred up some of the minor
politicians. for the Senator has come for
a rest and little recreation. The fact is,
the Senator is far from we'll. He suffers
apparently from some sort of bilious at
tack, which induces vertigo, and this
keeps him to his rooms where his meals
were served.
In spite of his illness, he took a brief
sail in the ocean, but found the blue fish
were wary, and after he came back he
again returned 10 the quiet of his room
seeing few callers. Today he goes with his
faithful Captain Sooy off Brigantine
Beach for try at drum fishing. This is
a trial of patience as well as of muscle,
for it is on record in Captain Sooy's ex-
Derience, that the Senator fished for drum
twenty-five hours and only caught one,
while the Senator himself philosophically
acknowledged to a reporter yesterday that
he had stood for hours in the surf with
out getting single strike on his line.
The Senator is in good hands here, be-
ing at the same hotel, the Hoffman, in
which his friend, Postmaster Mexican of
Pittsburg, is STAYING, and the postm aster,
who is an exceedingly warm-hearted
man, LOOKS after his chief as far as there
is any necessity. The Senator's son ae-
companies him and all his friends say
that politics are to be given the go-bv for
the nonce, nothing more serious than the
best best squid for blue fish being the
burden Of his conversation.

Messrs. James Smith, Jr., Colonel E.

Howard Carron and John R. Grubb TO
wait upon ex-President Cleveland and
urge him to attend the convention of

during the campaign. No stone is to be
left unturned to secure the presence of
Mr.. Cleveland.

shocking Accident Caused by Reckless
Workmen in Hcboken.
shocking accident occurred in Ho-
boken yesterday afternoon. A babe.
while playing at its mothers feet. was
struck on the head by a heavy piece of
timber and it's little skull was crushed in.
The babe is at St. Mary's Hospital and
this morning the sisters said that it's
death was only a question of few hours.
Ihe mother is almost frantic with grief.
The circumstances attending the acci-
dent are peculiarly distressing.

was Mrs. Seymour. Mrs.Seymour is q
handsome young woman with one child.
Mamie, a year old. Next door to No 400
building has been in course of erection
Tor some time. Between No. 400 and the
new house there is an alleyway, and dur
ing the heated term it has been the Gus
tom of the tenants in No. 400 to sit in it to
catch the slight breeze which could not
be had in their stuffy rooms. Every
warm afternoon the women and children
sat in this alleyway.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Seymour
locked her apartments and with little
Mam1e.fn her arms journeyed to the alley.
While the mother sat knitting, the babe

labors with it's childish prattle. High
above the mother and child were carpen-
ters and trainers at work on the new
building. sssa@
Suddenly there was crash and a
heavy piece of joist came flying througo
the air. The next moment the baby was
lying at its mothers feet with a gaping
hole in it's skull from which the blood
flowed in a stream.
The mother gave one look at her baby's
face, saw the blood pouring from the
wound and with despairing cry sank
back insensible.
Sympathizing neighbors crowded about,
and, while some of them carried the
young mother to her rooms, others picked
the baby up and carried her to near by
drug store. DR.. Pindar was summoned.
He looked at the little sufferer. said that it
could not live and advised its immediate
removal to st. Mary's Hospital.
The police were notified of the accident
and Detective Kiylon was sent to make
an investigation. He learned that the
building was being erected by a man
named Fitzpatrick. The Detective IN
quired among the carpenters and trainers.
but they all declared that they did not
know how the accident occurred. The de-
tective took the names of several of the
workmen, and they will be arrested il it
is deemed necessary.
