TO the Editor Of the So. Croir Avis.

Sir,
1t may not be undressing to your
readers to knowtnat "Jesaica's First Prayer,
the musical service Of which is to be rendered
on Sunday Evening, August 9th, at St. Paul's
Church, Frederiksted. is very, highly spoken
of in the celebrated ReUiew of Reuie'os. l
quote from. the 'Review' "Of Miss Stretton's
stories which bear names 50 widely known,
'rJessica's First Prayer" has, perhaps, had
the largest circulation in England, America,
and Germany, amounting to something like
three-qualters of a million in England alone.
Amongst her foreign readers and admirers
Miss Stretton counts a great variety, lnclud-
ing Emperors, Theolosians, and Peasants.
The Emperor Of Russia, Alexander H.,
published a ukose that copies of ''J.ssica's
First Prayer should be placed in all the
schools of Russia. His successor has thought
fit to revoke this order. However "Jessica's
FIRST Prayer" has found its way into almost
every language i'll the world, and has been
translated into Arabic. CingaIese. japanese,
bulgarian. Greek. Russian, Italian, Spanish,
Portuguese, German, and French"

THE Council In Session
Regular Weekly Meeting of the Fair.
haven City Council
STREET RAILWAY MATTERS
Action In Relation to the City Assess
ment Railroad Avenue in South
Fairhaven

AT the regular meeting of the Fair
haven city council yesterday Mayor
Mckenzie and Councilman Hedge were
absent. Councilman Knight was
elected mayor pro tenn.
The street committee submitted the
report of the city engineer in reference
to the error in plats of Railroad avenue
in South Fairhaven, complained of by
the Bay City Land Company. They
also recommended that the city engi-
neer be instructed to prepare a new
map of the water front showing Rail-
road avenue, and that the map be
made on the same scale as the harbor
line commissioners map. On motion
the report was laid over for one week.
The city attorney reported in the
matter of the claim of the Fairhaven
National Bank, in relation to warrants
held by the bank to the amount of
81 200, on account of the improvement
of Twenty-first and Twelfth streets.
and he recommended that the war
rants be held by the city until its
liability can be determined, and that
the amount in controversy between the
administrator Of the Hakes estate and
the city be determined before the same
are delivered under said order, should
IL be determined that the city was not
liable for material furnished the CON
tractors. Attorney Frye said that the
bank was willing to file an indemnify
ing bond, and that would relieve the
city of any liability. A motion to refer
the matter to the judiciary committee
and city attorney was lost, and Griffin
moved that the warrants in question
on the Twenty-first street fund be
handed over TO the Fairhaven National
Bank, provided the bank give the city
a sufficient bond indemnifying it from
liability in the premises The motion
carried.
The committee on streets further re-
ported recommending that the report
of the street commissioner be adopted
and it was so ordered.
The executive committee recon-
mended the payment Of the following
bills:

the work in good faith, and as he be-

Sensation by Flee

And Leaving the Woman
Nine MOntbS.Old
Child.

CHICAGO. March lO.-LadieS OF the
Congregational church of Wilmette
are gathered to-day at the home
Of Mrs. Gage, one of the leading
members of the congregation, busily
sewing on garments for three little
children
They were also engaged in discussing
the queer disappearance OF Mrs Hubert
Jordan, the mother Of the children
No lady Of Wilmette can be made
TO believe that Mrs. Jordan did
not elope with George Millbank,
a policeman, though the conclusion
is based purely on the ciraumstantial
evidence that the two, who we're occu-
pants of the same house, disappeared
on the same day, the woman taking all
her wearing apparel and the man
throwing up his work under the village
uniform
Last fall a new policeman went to
work for Wilmctte. He was a dapper-
looking fellow and his name was
George Millbank Soon after his ar
rival he took mp his residence with
Hubert Jordan. an employee in the real
estate office Of +. b. Nheeloct, a neigh
Dor, who has an Office 10 room SPA Of
the Opera-house Block. Mr. Jordan has
seen good deal of two sides of life.
Soon after Millbank's introduction
into the household he and the wife of
his host were frequently seen together
at the few entertainments the village
affords and az church. Last Tuesday
morning Mrs. Jordan sent the ol lest
boy 10 the house of one of the neigh
bors to ask Lille Bunker to come over
and care for the baby, saying she had
been suddenly called TO the city by a
Telegram. just previous to that a
grocer's boy had taken two large grip
sacks to the depot for her. When
Lille Bunker arrived at the house the
g-month '-old baby was there alone. The
Oldest boy did not come back with her
and the other lad was out in the street
al play. All day long the girl cared
for the baby, expecting Mrs. Jordan
back on every train, Bnt She did not
come.
After hir days work was done Mr..
Jordan came home The little beys
ran out tomeet him, and said: Mother
had been away all day" In the house
he found the girl and the baby. lie
was told Of the reason given by his wife
for her sudden departure and began an
investigation of the house to see if She
had left any word for him. lie first
noticed that none of her dresses We're
hanging on their accustomed nails.
Suspicion dawned upon him and he
pursued his search with feyeriSh haste.
In the policemans room he found upon
the table blue suit of clothes trimmed
with brass buttons, a blue helmet with
brass shield ON the front and police
mans billy. There was ESQ a note He
broke open tho seal and found the fol-
lowing message:
Give this 10 Olseu
