KNOWS MORE THAN THE PASTOR
SO MIR. Crawford Withdrew From St.
Marks Church.

Marks Church.
For some reason which the rector of st.
Marks Church does not yet understand, Mr..
John G. Crawford and his family have re-
solved to leave the church which they have
attended for thirteen years.
Mr.. Crawford says that he finds fault
with the action of the rector in changing the
customs and teachings of the church and
enforcing private confession as a sine qua
non for communion.
Said he'll considered it best to quietly
withdraw to a parish in which there were
no teachings, customs or practices other than
those taught by the high church.
"My objection in a general way was against
a claim of priestly direction in matters
affecting the religious life Of the laity to the
almost entire suppression of individual Judg-
ment and action. l believe that private con-
fession has a place in the Episcopal Church
under certain conditions, but / do not be-
lieve that church authorizes it as otherwise
than a medicine, and not a food"
The Rev. Frederick z. Mortimer, when
seen yesterday about the affair, was at first
unwilling to talk, but said finally
sIn regard to the statements about the
teachings at st. Marks Church which have
appeared in the public press, | may say that
confession has never been enforced or made
compulsory or over encouraged before each
communion. AS for priestly direction it has
never been offered, except as a matter of ad-
vice to children or where it has been volun-
tarily sought for according to the exhor-
tation in the Prayer Book. Two weeks ago
the family alluded to in the papers with
drew, but the only effect on the rest of the
parishioners, which are numbered by the
hundreds, has been to lead them to give
greater evidence of interest and loyalty to
the church and its teachings and practices. "

Wanser's administration.

Mayor Wanser's administration.
They opened their career by the dis
charge of forty employees OF the Water
Department, drawing salaries rang
ing from 5000 to 5000 ayear. Striking
a rough average. we estimate that the
annual saving in the payroll will be
some $2S, 600. The Commissioners, OF
course, give assurances that the dis
charges are permanent, that no APP
pointments are to be made in their
places, and that the public business
will suffer no detriment or injury
through the reduction of the force.
This is a very substantial step to-
wards making the Water Department
se~lf-sustaining. There is-or has Tor
years been-an annual deficit OF
about $50, 900 In the water account.
Today's cut in expenses wipes out
about one half this amount. Even II
nothing more be done, this is credit
able; but no retrenchment has yet
been made in the Belleville and High
Service forces. When these are at
tackled, no doubt the rest of the de-
felt will be wiped out.
We are inclined to think similar
economies may be made in other
branches of the Boards charge. 1t
is strange if they cannot.
For what has been done, we most
earnestly endorse and approve the
new Commissioners, and we congratu-
late Mayor Wanser upon the credit
they reflect upon him.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
THE TRUE GENTLEMAN.
Interesting Discourse to Young Men
by the Rev. DIR. Lowrie.

interesting Discourse to EOuMg Wen
by the Rev. DIR. Lowrie.
Rev. d. r.. Lowrie's sermon to young men
at the Emory N. Z. Church last evening at
tracted a large audience. Many young men
attended. DR.. Lowrie took for his text the
same as taken the preceding Sunday :-"For
none of us liveth unto himself"
''The first, blessing said Mr.. Lowrie,
''that we learn in life is that we are depend
emit upon each other. It is therefore impos-
sible to separate ourselves from social in
1uence. Our social distinctions, of which SO
much is said in our days, are, after all, only
conventional and artificial. No man, I don't
care who he is, nor where he is, can live
alone.
g presume a good many Of us have asked,
What is a gentleman? That question is
touching the good manners of a gentleman.
A gentleman is not that dandy, go~ody-goody
young MAJ who goes around with a vacant
stare. A gentleman is not that young man
who thinks so much about his large neck
tie, high collar, pressed pants and big cane.
Put a gentleman in the brightest, broadcast
and deepest thought OF the word; put him
to work In a broadcloth suit on the farm and
ne is a gentleman still. He is the soul Of
honor. Fine Gathers do not make fine birds.
You may dress up q monkey and he IS a
monkey still. There must be a pure and i'm
pulsiDg soul underneath the garb to form a
gentleman.
Genuine p~oEteness can never be learned
from book. You may study the rules of
etiquette, but q broad, deep and Christian
character is far, far better to deyelope the
true qualities of a real manhood. There are
some people who think they do need good
clothes to mako up a good heart. The true
man can eat at a plain pine table, and be
clothed in the simplest garb, and he is just
tho same
"a morose, solemn, Incorporate and pas
sionate man can never be a gentleman.
Self control is a requisite of good
manners. He who cannot control
himself has no right to the realm Of good
manners. No young man should ever be a
sneak and a coward Let your language be
free and simple.
II believe In q soul which will not swerve
from the path of conscientious convictions,
though the heavens fall. Another requisite
for good manners is q deep reverence for
God and a regard for every mans rights.
THE following questions should be con-
sidered carefully by the young man:-'How
shall I help to relieve the condition of the
poor of societyP How shall / help to stop
the all p%ervading curse Of intemperanceY
How shall | protect tho American institu-
tionsP How shall | love truthP and How
shall / stand by what is rightp
when a young man goes out into the
arena of public life he should go equipped
with we'll governed principles.
"Let me then say it's for you n me,
young men, to have courage and stand for
the truth, even when wrong is popular"

Senator Bradley Notifies Hotel Em-
ployes 10 Keep Out or Pavfltons.
Special to the Jersey City Nescs.
AsBURY PARK, June 4, 1S94.-Senator
James A. Bradley is the owner Of the IA
NOUS board walk and the pavilions which
line it on either side from Asbury avenue to
Deal Lake. Last year he was considerably
annoyed by guests of the hotels who com
planned that the best seats in the pavilion
were occupied by colored people, most of
whom were hotel help. At first Mr.. Brad
ley paid little attention to these complaints,
but when they became no numerous that he
was compelled to give up several hours a
day to listen, he decided that it was time to
act. The result was that oil paviiions were
placarded with notices requesting colored
persons to refrain from occupying them.
These notices caused an incipient riot from
the large colony of colored walters, wait
resses, cooks and general help Of hotels.
Such a Juror was raised that several leading
lawyers among the colored race came to the
relief Of their people and there was con-
siderable talk at the time of making a test
case of the matter. Mass meetings were
held, and in the presence of Mr.. Bradley,
that gentleman was severely denounced. He
explained that his course was made necessary
by the numerous complaints Of hotel guests,
that the hotel interests were paramount to
all others In Asbury Park. He knew for o
fact that the colored people occupied the
best seats in the pavilions to the exclusion,
annoyance and Inconvenience of the regular
guests.
This season other notices still broader in
their meaning have been posted in the
pavilion. They read as follows;-"Noticel
This pavilion Is intended for guests of hotels.
Employees of hotels will please observe the
above notice."
Employees Of hotels include clerks, book
keepers, managers and others whose lahors
are not of mental kind. They are wonder
ing whether or not Mr.. Bradley intended
the notice for them, and, if so, there will be
nlantY of fun the coming summer.

A Bond is an obligation to pay money at
a certain time. 1t is usually accompanied
by a mortgage on real estate, which is col
lateral security for the payment of the
money mentioned in the bond. The bond is
