writs before that body, Heretofore, when
a writ of certiorari was issued, it had to
take the usual course and come mp
in regular order, under the rules. This
rule has been revoked and the following
adopted
A Justice of the Supreme Court, upon allow

and upon notice to parties, may order that the
return day named in writ which has beeu al

Thjs ruling is the outcome of several
small cases which have been brought be-

arrested at her home in Vineland, charged
with Kissing at the public school COM
mencement exercises. Miss Landis one
of the most prominent and talented So
ciety ladies of the town. was singled out
of a group of spectators in the audience,
and was brought before the Mayor of the
town for trial. Her brother, acting rs
counsel, tried the case. Mayor Lord de-
cided Miss Landis guilty, and imposed a
fine of So and costs.
Counsel asked for an appeal. This was
denied by Mayor Lord, who said:-"There
is no appeal from the decision of this
Court"
Mr.. Lands then said Your honor,
then desire to certiorari the case to the
Supreme Court"
The writ was accordingly issued, and
after awaiting term or two of that
august body the case was tried, and the
Judgment of the Lord Mayor of Vineland
reversed.
II cases are put off for one or more
terms the costs are run up into the hun
dreds of dollars for attorneys fees and
the rule was made to put stop to enor-
nous costs and have such cases settled
before a single Justice in the time speci-
fed.

Father Harpes' Sensation
al Attack on Two Amer

AT ST. PETERS CHURCH.
The President Of the College Dis
cusses the "Two Greatest
Enemies Of Catholic

Some sensation was occasioned down
town on Sunday by sermon preached by
the Rev Father Harpes President of st.
lie Schools and the daily press were the
two greatest enemies the Catholic Church
had was freely discussed by his parish-
toner's and outsiders after the service.
The sermon had not been announced, and
it so happened that no reporter was pres
ent to take it down.
A reporter for THE JERSEY CITY NEWS
called upon Father Harpes yesterday and
asked for the manuscript or notes Of the
sermon. Father Harpes said he had
made no copy of his sermo on nor did he
talk from notes prepared beforehand. Il
was not the rule of the Catholic Church
to give out sermons for publication any
way.

school question was an old question ip the
Catholic Church. If the Church did not
believe the public schools an enemy, there
would not be so many parochial schools
founded. The children OF the Church
should be educated under Church infiu-
ences.
"As to the remark about the daily
press" said the Father, II was simply

MURDER HERE PERHAPS.
The Mystery of a Body Found
Floating Near the Palisades,

The finding of the body of a man off the
Gutenberg lumber dock INST Thursday
will probably develop a greater mystery
than was at first supposed. The body was
identified yesterday as that Of Mich
olas Smith, OF Little Falls. n.
Y. In The JERSEY CITY NEWS
of yesterday was recounted the finding
of the card with the address of the
Annex Hotel, New York. IN the mans
clothes. Information of the discovery of
the body was sent to that place and last
night Henry Fisher, the proprietor, called
at the Morgue and viewed the remains,
which he identified.
FOUL PLAY?
What Mr.. Fisher said to Coroner Boyer
lends a new complexion to the affair.
Smith, he said, never used alcohol to ex.
cess and was very temperate
in his habits. He was of a
very cheerful disposition and was
quite popular with the guests
of the hotel. He had quite sum oi
money. On March he left the hotel say
ing he would return In u few hours. In
his pockets he had a considerable sum,
Mr.. Fischer did not know how much.
Mr.. Smith was never heard from again
after he left the hotel until Coroner Boyer
notified Fischer of the finding OF the
body.
MONEY ALL GONE.
The hotel people had been unable to
explain Mr.. Smiths sudden departure
and his omitting to inform them of his
whereabouts. When the body was found
there was not penny in the clothes
nothing save two keys. one of which was
the key of his room in the hotel. The
body bears no marks of violence which
can be discerned by superficial exam
ination.
County Physician Converse will prob
ably order an inquest. The body had ap.
parently been in the water some time
when discovered The relatives of ths
dead man at Little Falls will be Informed
of his end by telegraph. The New York
authorities will be notified.

THE LlTHOGRAPHIC TRUST.

Colonel Heppenheimer Said to Have
Become Its Secretary.
A rumor was abroad this morning to the
effect that the +. Heppenheimer's Sons
lithographic establishment. at Central
avenue and Franklin street, now under
the management of the American Litho-
graphic Company. had closed down.
Coupled with this was another to the
effect that Colonel Heppenheimer had ac-
cepted the position of secretary to the
American Company at salary of $4,000
year.
A reporter for THE NEWS visited the es-
tablishment at noon and found the first
rumor false. Regarding the second
nothing could be definitely ascertained.
The rumor probably grew out of the fact
that during lull of business in the
art department some of the artists
had been transferred to some of
the establishments of the company over
the river. Fifteen, at least. were as busy
in that department as thev could possibly
be, and the one hundred and fifty other
employees were also busy. All the presses
were running as usual.
