PRAISE FROM NEW JERSEYS LEAD
ING PAPER,
From, the Newart Evening seaos.

The JERSEY CITY EVENING NEWS has
donned a handsome new suit of type, and is
about to add other improvements to those
which its energy inc increasing re-
sources have already led it to make.
For enterprise spirit and intelligent
management, the NEWS has made a
fine reputation among New Jersey news
papers, and the people are recognizing its
public services and its worth. In the well
warranted self-congratulation over its pro-
gress and advancement, that is elsewhere re-
produced, it sets as its exemplar the progress
of this newspaper, and the Netos hopes that
it will attain that measure of success. The
Jersey City papers triumph owe many obsta-
cles and fierce and often malignant opposition,
is the sincerest of testimony to the courage,
the intelligence and the trained newspaper
instincts of its editor, James Luby, and to
the worthy ideal to which in his career as its
directing spirit he has constantly held.

HAD FAITH IN GOD.
210 PACIFIC AVENUE,
JERSEY CITY. Dec. II. 1893.

To the Editor of the Jerseg G IT, ve,bs.
The remarkable occurrence from st.
Joseph, Mo-, which led to the restoration and
cure of Thomas Gilpin, the e~leven-year-old
boy, as mentioned in your JERSEY CITY
NEWS, /, for one of your readers, believe it
with all my heart. / lave a living witness in
my house now, sixty-four years old, who can
testify that when eleven years old (the same
age as the boy. she contracted a scald head
at school. Her parents, after trying all the
medical skill available, gave it up as incur
able. Not so with the little girl. She was a
strong believer in the power of God, to hear
and answer prayer. So with childlike simple
faith in God she secluded hers elf away in a
field and closing her eyes, knelt in prayer
and asked the Lord to direct her hand on
some grass or moss that would heal her
head. In the name of the Father and of the
Son and of the Holy Ghost, she earnestly
prayed, and her hand clasped, and taking
home the grass she pulled up without in
forming any of the household, she made an
ointment and applied to her head. To the
great joy of herself and all concerned she
was cured of her disease. Urge the young to
nave faith in God.
Excuse me taking this liberty as there are
SO many people, both young and old, that
don't consider that God is the same today as
he was when he told Adam that He had
given him every herb of the field.

DEPARTMENTAL TEACHING.
The Experiment Has Proved Highly

The experiment, departmental teaching,
which has been introduced in the grammar

All the principals and teachers are satisfied
with its working. Indeed, some are enthu-

Principal Hoyt of No. SSchool, in speaking of
the matter this morning, said the system had
thus far produced very good results in his
school, and that he had discovered nothing
to justify the fears of some that the sending
Of pupils to SO many different teachers during
the day would tend to lessen the responsible
