FAITH CURED HER COMPLAINTS

The Faith Curists of Mount Zion Sane
tuary, Gr~eenville, added another member to
their flock yesterday afternoon, and the
event was celebrated with a special hallelu-
jah service, held in the sanctuary at four
o'clock. The service was attended by over
two hundred of the "faithful.n j
The new member was a young lady from
Elizabeth, and when called Upon to publicly,
profess her conversion, she said that she had
been i'll for a long time and had been cured
by faith. She then related the "afflictions''
from which she had suffered, and In SO doing
named all but a few of the ills that flesh is
heir to. After special prayers were said in
her behalf, Sister jackson took her into an
ante-room, where she was prepared for i'm
mersion. Having donned a long rubber
cloak, Pastor Hancox took her by the hand
and led her to the shore front, the congrega-
ton following in a double file. As Pastor
Hancox lowered her into the water the con-
~gregatlon sang hymns. The young lady
stood the ordeal very well, and did not seem
to mind the bath in the water. After the
immersion the congregation reassembled in
the church, and another hallelujah service
was held.

ASKING FOR A RECEIVER
Higgins Soap Company Re-
strained from Disposing
of Its Assets.

Joseph W. Stray, of No. % Division ave-
nue., Brooklyn, Secretary and Treasurer of
| the Higgins Soap Company, No. ego Allan
tic avenue, Brooklyn, appeared before
! Chancellor McGill of New Jersey yesterday
! afternoon through counsel and asked for an
order restraining the company from dispos-
ing of its effects pending the application for
a receiver of the Corporation which IS incor-
porated under New Jerseys laws.
The Chancellor quoted an order COM
manding the officers and stockholders of the
company to appear before him on Monday
next, July 80, to show cause why a receiver
should not be appointed. In the mean
| time. saws the Chancellor's order, the Off
GERS and agents OF the company are
| restrained from exercising any OF the privll-
| eyes or franchises granted by its certificate
or by the act Incorporating the company.
| The order prohibits the officers collecting or
receiving any debts. or from paying out or
transferring any of the assets of the COM
pany. Mr.. Stray, in his atfidayit read by
| Counsellor Northrup of the firm of Wallis,
Edwards and Bumsted, says that in the treas
| urv of the company there are not $50 at
| present. : The Indebtedness of the company
amounts to about $50. 600, and certain parties
| are threatening to bring suit for unpaid
notes.
81 am personally AWARE said Mr.. Stray,
'sof the fact that q party promised to put
several thousands of dollars into the treas
ury of the company for the purpose of
prosecuting it's business and has since failed
to complete his promise and to the best OF
my knowledge is now a fugitive from
Justice. | do not now make further dis
closures concerning the same as ] am in

proceedings and might tend to aid in the
escape OF one whom L bel1eve TO De a crlInl-
nal"
CoLEMAN'S SHORTCOMINGS.
Counsellor Northrup says chat the party
alluded to is David Coleman, who gave the
company a certified check for $2S,000, and
there were no funds in the bank to meet it.
Annexed to Mr.. Stray's affidavit is one
from Charles Il. Higgins, President of tue
corporation. 1t sets out that there are out
standing 800, 900 of stock, 100000 being
common stock, and the remainder, $4,000
preferred stock. The company, he says, has
not been doing much business during the
past three months for lack of funds. The
outstanding liabilities amount to $4,000,
and the holders of notes are pressing for pay
ment.
SPY my efforts" he adds, they nave been
dissuaded from actual suits"
In conclusion he says that the stock appli-
ances and fixtures at No. $50 Atlantic avenue,
BROOKLYN, might realize about ten thousand
dollars in the open market.
Mr.. Stray owns twenty-one shares with
the company.
IT is understood that the stockholders will
not oppose the application or Monday next
for a receiver but will join in asking that
Mr.. Stray be appointed receiver.

Playgrounds For the Chlldren.

From slow going Philadelphia
comes an admirable suggestion for
the benefit of the children of crowded
cities. 1t has always been a serious
problem what to do with the little
ones in summer. They are bound TO
sicken and die if they are boxed up
in the house. The back yards are in
many cases so shut in as to afford.no
relief. If they play on the sidewalk,
they are a nuisance, and if the boys
pitch ball in the streets or on the
vacant lots, the police lock them up.
Philadelphia has made a new de-
parture by throwing the school yards
open to the little people to play in all
day. 1t is a splendid idea and every
city ought to follow the lead. Per
haps, in a little while, benevolent
people may improve on it by sub
scribing to make the school yards
pleasant play grounds. There is no
other possible use for the grounds.
The children can do no harm in them.
Their opportunities for injuIing
themselves or each other are reduced
to a minimum. The janitors of the
schools should be detailed turn about
to act as supervisors of the proceed
ings-not every school having a yard
available for the purpose, in this city
at least.
Now, here is an idea, obviously
good. 1t costs n~othing-not a cent.
1t does infinite good. How long will
it be before our local authorities take
it up and put it-in practice. In this
city several schools have all the space
necessary. Nos. IL, IA and 25 are
notable cases. Two or three hundred
children at a time could play at each,
and it would be no small thing to get
that number off the streets without
combining them to the tenement
houses.
As for the developments of the
idea, they are simple and compare
lively inexpensive. The erection of a
canvas shelter over a portion OF the
ground, with seats for the boys to
rest and the girls to play, is n
thing that might be done. Swings
and parallel bars might be put up
and a baseball diamond and perhaps
a croquet ground might be laid out,
according to the room available. All
this should be, at least for the
present, a private matter; but the
mere opening of. the grounds, which
must be done by the city, is that rare
sort of public benefaction which costs

TRAMPs ON BERGEN AVENUE.

Several residents of Bergen avenue COM
planned to Captain McKaig of the Fourth
precinct, yesterday, that they were bothered
by tramps. Some rough, looking characters
lave been roaming alone the avenue lately,
begging for bread and causing alarm among
the women in the neighborhood. Captain
McKaig sent Patrolman jackson to investi-
gate. He found one tramp who said he was
James Murphy, fifty-six years old, residence
nowhere. He told the officer he was going
into the houses to see if the residents wanted
their grass cut. He was a pretty rough
looking character, and had no scythe to cut
grass with. Justice Douglass discharged
him this morning, upon the condition tnat
he leave the city at once. He said he was
going to Staten Island, where he claims he
has some friends.
