The Sunday-school of the LAFAYETTE Re-

last night, at which gifts were distributed to
every pupil in the school. The exercises
opened with a professional hymn, after
which the infant class conducted the pro-
gramme. REGULATIONS were given by Master
Oakley, Master Eddie Slater, Miss Julia
Kommers and others, texts by twelve schol-
ans and songs by the class. kilograms had
been read from time to time announcing the
progress OF Santa Claus, who finally
came through the window and distributed
prett1ly dressed dolls with open and shut
eyes to the girls. tool guests, ships and pen
KNIVES to the boys. The saint, whose name.
out of costume, is Walter Smith, kept the
audience in fine humor by his bright speeches
IN German dialect. The most amusing mart
OF the evening was when Santa offered two
prizes, one to the married lady who never
scolded her careless and untidy husband"
n the other to 1.-THE married gen
tleman who never talks back when he is
Scolded ana who always remembers to mail
letters given him" The first still remains
unclaimed, but when the second was an.

up with an air of conscious virtue, while the
applause was deafening.
Ihe presents for the main school had been
selected for each class by the teacher. After
the distribution, all were served with cake

awarded seventeen Bibles, which

ST. NICHOLAS CHARITY.
The st. Vincent de Paul Society Of st.
Nicholas Parish is doing a noble work
among the poor. There are frequent appeals
for charity to the Rev. Father Weyland.
The st. Vincent de Paul Society of his parish
has established a system of giving tickets for
provisions to the poor. N charitably in
cl1ned baker in Central avenue has offered
the society to sell bread through this system
at half price.
A BUREAU OF CHARITY.
Ihere was to nave been a meeting of the
Ladies' Aid Society of the Waverly Congre-
gatlonal Church last Thursday evening for
the purpose OF organizing a sort of bureau
Ior a systematic investigation of appeals for
charity, but owing to the near approach of
the holidays the attendance was not SO large
as was hoped for by the promoters of the
scheme. Another effort will be made to Or
game such a bureau. The idea is to open
the church certain days Of the week, and
allow those who are really in want to apply
ana leave their names and address for the
purposes of investigation.
UNDER REV. MR.. sToDDARD's CHARGE.
rev. Mr.. Stoddard, in an interview with
a JERSEY City NEWS reporter on the condi-
tion of the poor in st. Johns parish and the
apliity o. the church to take care of them,
here has been no great suffering in
the parish as yet, and SO far we have been
aple TO take care of all our poor"
how many poor people on average does
the church take care off,
we have from eight to ten families on
our relief list all the year around. During
the last year, which ended at Advent, $500
ana about 1000 articles of clothing were
distributed to deserving people,
Rave the hard times brought no increase
In the number of dependents upon the
churchT'
wen, perhaps there are a third as many
more this winter as there were last"
How did the plan you proposed to your
congregation, that they should this year
devote the money usually spent on Christmas
presents to the church workgs
Very well. The Sunday School collec-
tlons amounted to $58 and the scholars re-
ce1ved no presents, whereas in former years
u mas peen customary to spend from $50 to
S5oo on presents for them. The church col
iections amounted to between 81 700 and
SSll;5Sooo; other years it has only been
considering the hard times I didn't
expect as much as was received. You can
say That st; Johns thus far is well able to
take care of her poor.'

THE POINT OF ROCKS FIGHT.
Now Contending For the Permanent
Injunction.


Yesterday afternoon before Vice Chancel-
lor Van Fleet in Chancery Chambers. The
argument was begun On the Injunction of
the National Docks Company against the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company to restrain
the latter corpo ration from interfering with
the construction of a road OF the Point of
Rocks.
Counsellor James r. v~redenburg read the
P. R. R. Co.'s answer to the petition which
reply denied that any interference had taken
place. The P. r. R. Co., he claimed, is
on its own ground, and if there are
cars stationed directly over the tunnel, now
being cut by the National Docks company,
these cars are there because they are
there Counsel contested that the company
need the yard at that point for the transac-
ton of their large freight business.
Counsellor Charles L. Corbin put in his
reply for the National Docks company and
illustrated IN a large map the awkward
position In which his clients are placed. They
are tunnelling under the r. r. r. Co.'S
tracks at. the Point of Rocks and
the PR. Co.. to annoy them places ON the
tracks directly over the tunnel a long train
of heavily freighted cars, which threaten to
drop through the roof of the National Docks
Co.'s tunnel. Counsel pleads for the issue Of
the injunction against the P.R.R. Co.
The case was then adjourned until today
at Newark. :
