At tho first interview she had pressed
Mr.. Singlcsby's hand, and with a pretty,
impulsive gesture had raised 1t to her
lips. while her soft eyes were suddenly
yelled with tears, but he had spoken
quickly about her health, and with the
skill of a man OF the world engaged her
In conversation about the sisterhood and
the conditions of her lifc in their house:
She was very charming in her invalid
chair, daintily cared for by her good hos
ess, dressed in some simple, ull-faSh-
Toned raIment which the! had supplltd'
and the lovely hair which had wound IL
self about Sing.esby's arm on the night
of the rescue, though arranged as tightly
as possible about her small head by the
unwordly nuns. was like crown OF
glory.
Oddly enough. a single likeness sug-
gcsted itself 10 some Of the fomily Cop
lestons, Of which the young Bostonian
was so proud At last day came when
MarEaret said "a am t. go home jo-muI

almost the only one he had louui to give;
so rarely rehned was her speech and

a good start now, aud hope to pay you

NEWSBOY SCHEME NOT NEW.
There Were boys with badges on
broadway Cars in 1860.

Considerable interest has been aroused
by the proposition to place uniformed
newsboys on the cable cars, who will
supply passengers with newspapers and
periodicals and guarantee the Company
of possible accidents
This scheme Is by no means new
one. AS far back as 1866 a similar plar,
was successfully operated by Frank
Wood, then a newsdealer in broadway,
between Fortieth and Forty-first streets.
Mr.. Wood made an agreement with John
Kerr, who was then President of the
Broadway line, by which boys with
Woods badges had the exclusive privi-
lege on the cars of that Company.
Mr.. Wood told an Evening World
very satisfactorily, and that he only
abandoned II to engage in other bust
ness. He thinks it is still feasible If
properly conducted, and that it would
eventually embrace every street-car line
in the city.

E PUBLICATIONS.
Frrank Leslfe,s For April.

Frank Leslie's Popular Monthly for April is
a typical number of this favorite periodical,
which, for timely interest, variety and ami
nation, stands easily first amongst contem-
porary illustrated family magazines. The
opening paper is a delightful account, by
Charles Bradford Hudson, of that Mecca OF
students, the Latin Quarter of Paris; illus
trated with fourteen drawings by the author,
including a page picture of the fantastic
Mid-Lent Carnival in the Place du Pantheon.
Other illustrated descriptive articles are 1.-The
Bermudas, /" by DR.. j. B. Mattison, and Log
ging in Northern Wisconsin," by Ell. W.
Stead. The element of personality is
abundantly represented in this
number by two notable papers:
GA Generation of the New York Bar by
Alvan s. Southworth, and 'sThree Actresses:
a Symposium" by Champion Bissell, the two
involving a score or so of interesting por-
traits. Martha McCulloch Williams writes
charmingly, as ever, about the Image
Makers Of New York; which picturesque
subject Hencke has illustrated in his best
style. The complete stories include a charac-
teristic one by Count Tolstoi, entitled .Ivan
the Fool;'' and a second installment is given
of the promising new serial, isThe Silver
Shafts.8 Other contributors to this number
are:-Elaine Goodale Eastman, Charles H.
Crandall, Minna Irving, Judith Spencer,
Lillian Whiting, Ethel Hatton Leitner,
Maude A. Andrews, Nora K. Marble, A.
Oakley Hall, Dorothy Deane, Virginia X.
Coke and George c.. Hurlbut.

LADIES' PENNY sOOIABLE

The Ladies' Society of the Westminster
Presbyterian Church on Summit avenue
held a "penny sociable" last night in the
Sunday school room. The room was beauti-
fully decorated with streamers of all colors,
and the clipping table and cake table were
especially well decorated. The clipping
table consisted of packages suspended from
strings over the table, and each person pay
ing ten cents had the pleasure of clipping
one of them off. The table was in charge of
Mrs. Van Doran and Mrs. Bowman. The
cake table was in charge of Mrs. Beach and
Mrs. Sage. The admission tickets had
printed upon the backs of them ~thirty-five
questions asking what could be seen on a
penny, and the two persons answering most
of the questions correctly, received o hand
received first prize, and Miss Isabel Gordon
second.

son, as all the large shops are closing out
the remainder of their winter stock of silks
and grapes at reduced prices, and five or six
yard lengths of fine quality may be bought
at half the price per yard that was charged
two or three months previous. In thin
qualities of silk the soft varieties wear bet
ter than the glace kinds of the same grade,
although the latter appear to have more
body.
In regard to the mode of making these
waists there is only one law-they shall not
be plain. Even the wash silks are usually
made up full with a folded belt and col
lar, balloon sleeves and a double ruching
down the front, while corsages intended for
theater and evening wear are so yolumi-
nously and yariousy trimmed that it would
seem impossible for the subtlest ingenuity
to invent a new style. A sketch is given of
a theater bodice composed of pale green
Grape and laurel green satin ribbon, made
over a fitted lining of pale green surah. 1t
is shirred In the form of a round yoke,
which is outlined by a band of ribbon fin
ished with erect bows on the shoulders. A
second parallel band curves across the bust.
The bodice is gathered In at the waist I'M
der a pointed ribbon belt and has a short,
full basque lined with surah and trimmed
with a band of ribbon. The tight, shirred
sleeves extend from the wrist to above the
elbow, where they are met by a balloon
puff with a rufle trimmed with a ribbon
band. The standing collar of ribbon is sur
mounted by a ruching of the Grape. The
bodice closes at the back.

PASTOR HEWLETT FIRM
Not Afraid of the vestrymen of His
Church.

There is trouble ahead for Pastor Hewlett
and the vestrymen of the Christ P. E.
Church of Greenville. 1t has been known
for some time that Pastor Hew-
lett is at loggerheads with the
vestrymen, and that the pastor received a
hint that his resignation from the church
would be received with joy by the vestry-
men. The present trouble is an outgrowth of
the rumpus which occurred some time ago
between the Pastor and ChoirmasGer Grice.
The. readers of THE JERSEY CITY NEWS
will remember that the choirmaSter was
asked to resign by Pastor Hewlett n that
he fought the pastor, and, backed by the
choir, won a victory. Ever since then the
vestrymen and other member of the
church have been opposed to Mr.. Hewlett's
remaining in the church.
1t is said that when Pastor Hewlett reeeiv-
ed the hint that his resignation was wanted
he went to Newark and interviewed Bishop
Starksy. 1t is also alleged that Bishop
Starkey promised Mr.. Hewlett
that he would not consent to his
removal and the Pastors opponents
in the church declare that the Bishop sided
with Mr.. Hewlett because the choir of the
church had found fault with him a year
ago because he prohibited the members from
wearing surplices.
1t is expected that the storm will break at
the annual election of the vestrymen which
takes place on Wednesday, March %. Pas
Hewlett will, it is said, endeavor to carry the
election while his opponents will attempt to
do the same. A lively time is expected.
