ATKINSON On RAlNSFORD.

Tho West Side NJ. e. Church's Pastor
D~enounces the Church Beer Proposal.
The Rev. DIR. John Atkinson of the
West Side M. e. Church, this city. while
In Philadelphia yesterday was interviewed
by a reporter of the Press in regard TO
his opinion concerning the proposition
made by the rector of st. Georges, New
York. the Rev. DR.. w. S. Rainsford.
that the church establish saloons with
the idea of eventually gaining control of
the liquor traffic. DR.. Rainsford would
exclude whisky from the church saloons,
but would have them include beer and
light wines.
DIR. Atkinson said:-"Why, it Is simply
outrageous. That a man should occupy
a Christian pulpit and make such a pro-
position seems incredible to me. 1t is
monstrous. He ought to be ashamed of
himself. 1t is dreadful. 1t would be
fighting fire with fire. saloon with saloon,
beer with beer. l believe that there
ought to be many more places than there
are where Young men could find social
enjoyment evenings. but that the church
should TAXI such a step as this that DR..
Rainsford proposes would be suicidal.
i do not think that the proposition will
be accepted by anybody. 1t certainly
ought not to be-"

The Fourth Precinct Tabby Will Not Eat
Fish on Friday.
The police of the Fourth precinct have
a curiosity in the shape CT a Protestant

day, when she must have meat. This
may seem like a fish story, but it Is true,
nevertheless. | have ever hidden Il piece
of fish IN a piece of meat and given 1t to
the cat on Friday. but she could not be
fooled that way. She ate the meat and
stored the FISH away until Saturday
morning, when she had it for breakfast. u
All the policemen at the station house
say that Wolverton's story Is correct in
every detail and invite all skepIics to the
station house to see for themselves.

Little Boys Suffering from e eczema
Grew Worse under 3 Doctors.
Cured by Cuticura.

For one year my little boy was troubled with
eczema. After trying three eminent physicians,
the disease grew worse; both cheeks became O
raw sore. Then spots began to break out on
his body; and l am of an opinion that If l had
not tried CUTICuRA REMEDIES, my boy would to-
day have been covered from head to foot with
the terrible disease. After using the remedies
for two months, he was entirely cured, and now
as fair as any boy. send you this testimonial,
in hopes some poor afflicted one may see this
and obtain CUTICuRA REMEDIES at once.

Willie Day Runs A Fast Trial,

The principal event at the New Jersey
A. c. games on Decoration Day will be
the attempt of w. D. Day to break the
present amateur American record for
three miles held by himself and made on
Decoration Day, 1890. Mr.. Day has been
training for some time past and after his
preliminary work on the cross country
runs of the Columbia A. G. and Suburban
Harrlers has been doing some remarkably
fast work on the track. Last night he ran
a trial at the full distance coming very
close to record time. AS he was not
pulled out in the trial by any handicap
men it is almost q certainty that he will
establish new figures for this event on
Decoration day. During his practice he
is also reported to have run two miles In
9,33 continuing on for some time further.

The boys built their bonfires as usual
on election night. The voting citizen
button-holed his neighbor and said:-
"Well, what are the indications" and
agreed that it looked as though Wanser

people. Ex-President James Clark oc-

with materials for tabulating the returns.

all day for McDermott. read off the re-
turns as received, and Standard Bearer
O'Neill filed them. The early figures were
not encouraging.
At the rooms of the Mclaughlin Asso-
citation only small crowd was gathered
in the early hours of the evening. School
Director Michael Moran read off the re-
turns and they were tabulated by Larry
Fullem. They were not encouraging
enough to arouse any great amount OF
enthusiasm. Still those present main

course. pleased, but were afraid to make
premature hurrah. Indeed, some of the

after ex-Judge Blair gave his opinion that
the marked ballots from the ''Bell Tower"

sisted by DR.. Arrowsmith. The figures
were by no means comforting, and George

tentive listeners, agreed upon this point.
The general impression at eleven o'clock
was that Wanser had the call, and this
started the enthusiastic Wanserites parad-
ing the streets. The returns, however,
were not at that time all in.
Good-natured "Big Jake Kramer" did
not even wait to hear the result of the
count. He hired a big German band at
six o'clock In the afternoon and at its
head paraded the streets, visiting all

the city. He created an intense amount
of amusement among those acquainted
with the past record of his escapades.

REHABILITATION.
ROD AND GU N.

A twenty-seven pound rock fish was
caught recently at Bridgeton.
For the first time in four years a catch
of roe shad was made in Lake's bay, at
Atlantic City. Tuesday afternoon, by two
fishermen named Jesse and John Camp.
They caught eleven shad averaging six
pounds each. They also made haul of
about 800 herring.
The Bangor Commercial is authority
for the following:-"Lobstsr are going
into freak business quite largely this
Winter. An Eastport fisherman secured
a white one the other day, and now a
man at Beak's Island has found an even
greater curiosity-a veritable blue lobster.
1t is beautiful specimen of the crusta-
cean; the bright cerulean has extended
even to the ends of its long feelers The
Holsters have evidently been attending a
fancy dress party"
A large fiocE of wild geese were seen
flying northeast ward acrosSthe Hacken-
sack meadows one morning last week.
The new Fish Commissioners have or
ganized with George Pfeiffer of Camden
as President, and Robert Foote of Nor
Morristown was appointed State Fish
and Game Protector, u new office recently
created with salary of 5000 year and
travelling expenses. He will have q con-
tinual picnic at the expense of the State,
and it is to be hoped will do some work for
his money. The Commissioners have
never paid any attention to infractions of
law, and have done little practical work
beyond stocking ponds with bass. They
have fed the frogs, turtles, kingfishers
aud rapacious fish and reptiles with
thousands of helpless little trout which
cost considerable money, but on the
whole the Fish Commission In this State
has been for years for moee ornamental
than useful. 1t has had little money to
wastei however, aud now can disburse
So 600. There is little practical knowl-
edge of fish culture or fish conveying In
the Commission, and the only qualifica-
tons for the Office possessed by the in.
cumbents are their interest in angling.
The wardens In this end of the State are
generally useless lot as far as knowl-
edge of the requirements or fitness for
the offices is concerned. A shlng ex-
ception is Mr.. Charles A. Shriner, OF
Paterson. and he is heartily sick of the
manner in which the work of the Com
mission has been done in previous years
