a Town cad Its Newspaper.

That a newspaper always does
credit 10 the town and people where
It Is published IS not true. People
who are looking for new locations
however generally lock to the local
paper TO learn what kind of 4 town
the place they are thinking officiating
in is, aud as & general rule they are
able to form 4 fairly correct idea as to
the business Of tile town and the
Standing of the people therein b.

Poormaster Hewitt Explains the Reas ons
for Abandonment Cases.
According to Poormaster Hewitt, the
abandonment and nor-support business is
on the ste ady increase in Jersey City. To-
morrow morning there will be two more
Abandonment cases tried in different
courts in this city. Since January l the
Poormaster has served sixty-three war
rants rs follows:-Nineteen in January,
fifteen in February, eight Ia March, seven
in April, aud fourteen in May.
Thus far in June there have been six
warrants served on husbands falling to
provide homes for their wives and fam
lilies. These cases all came up today in
the various courts. Three application
cases were tried, making u total of eight
ecu since January l.
In addition to the warrants, Mr.. Hew-
lit writes letters to these negligent hus-
bands and fathers warning them to pro-
vide properly for their families.
Mr.. Hewitt. in conversation with a
NEWS reporter, said
'sIt is a strange thing that as soon as
the warm weather III on, We
have so many abandonment cases to at
tend 10. You viii notice that during the
winter we hadd in the coolest weather.

"a Trip to Chinatown Comes to Ross
Hoboken Theatre.
Next Saturday evening. flushed with
its phenomenal success in New
York, "a Trip to Chinatown"
comes TO Ross's Hoboken Theatre Mr..
Hoyt is original and fertile in the pro-
duction of an American kind of fun that
is plenty in the newspapers. and that IS
auecodotal in the conversation of the
country, but which nobody SO cleverly as
ne has put into plays. Moreover. he
chooses some easily appreciable subject to
satirize, and in "a Trip to Chinatown"
he makes a target of hypocnondria for his
shafts of wit. He names the principal
character Welland Strong, a man
possessed of the belief that he is i'll and
weak. The adventures of this gay old
chap in the Golden 6 ate City are The
central happenings. He is accompanied
by other Y-icissitudinou persons, aud the
aggregate of comic plig hts and equally
Jolly e~xGrications are rapid and numerous.
Singing u dancing 60 along with the
rest of the things, aud the speaking aV-
erages a joke per seuten ce. In one re-
spect ''Cninatown" will be a revelation
in farce comedy. 1t is promised that 1t
will be produced here on a most elabor-
ate scale as to scenic u mechanical eff
feet. Every stitch of scenery, every
piece of furniture aud properties are car
ried by the company.

But Pastor HalIeron Fills the Breach
With An Able Talk.
Alarge congregation gathered at Simp-
son NJ. E. Church. Central avenue, last
evening to hear a discourse on ''Immi-
grafton by General O'Bsirne. Unitel
States Commission Of Immigration. but
the General failed to materialize for some
unknown reason. Pastor Halleron made
tile preliminaries as protracted as pos
sibIe, hoping to give the immigration
man opportunity TO immigrate to the
church. but was at last forced to do the
preaching himself. He commenced an
impromptu talk by re~marking:-
There are WI things which a Metho-
dist minister is supposed to do in five
minutes' time. One is to die and the
othe r to preach. [ never cane within
five minutes of death. SO l cau't say how
much prepared would be for it, but
this is the first time in my ministerial
life that I ever was called upon III to
preach at five minutes notice. But how
glad am always to be able to
say a word for the Master on any
occasion. There Is no excuse for not hav-
ing anything TO say in a case sucn as
tnIs--a word for the Lord can always be
said from Il full heart. II is the old, old
story that we love to learn. | am glad Co
see how so man. will come out and away
from home to hear the simple story which
we love SO much. 1t is not only the great
questions which bring us together. IL is
the mere telling over and over again of
thatsola story Of Gods love to men.
.tffiere is notning that God is unable to
do. BE takes no vacations, not one IN a
century. He leave nothing to care for
itself, aud nothing which cannot take
care OF itself. God says to evil. This far
come and no farther" aud his voice is
obeyed. He is the counsel OF men, and
all should stand ready to do his will"
