CHURCH COLLECTIONS SHORT
Investigating the Finances of st
Gnbriels mt New Rochelle.

NEW ROCHELLE, July 2.-There is
quiet investigation going on in st.
Gabriel's parish. The books of the
collector are being generally overhauled,
and, 1t Is said, deficiencies found, by
reason Of which the collector has been
obliged to resign. The populations so
far discovered do not amount to much,
but II is feared the amount will reach
greater sum than was at first ex-
pected. 1t is said that the Easter Of
ferings were considerably short, and
new receipts for the past quarter. which
were not credited on the books, are con-
stantly turning up, to Father Kellner's
surprise.
The parish has been in existence a
year. Adrian Iselin. jr., and William
1selin are trustees. Their mother, Mrs
Ardian Iselin, ST., built the church out
of her own pocket, and presented it to
and clear of debt. The parishioners
responded literally, and it was believed
the church was financially prosperous
until the disclosures referred to came
about three weeks ago.
The ex-collector admits a slight de-
ficiency, but says the church owes him
that for services rendered. Father
kellner was not at home this morning.

She Used the Wrong Powder.

A young lady living on North
Meridian street had an experience
the other evening. She went up
stairs, and had just turned out the
light when she heard a caller ask
for her. She made a dive for her
powder puff in the dark and busted
her face with powder. She went
down to the parlor and found dis
tlnguished stranger, on whom she was
anxious to make an impression. He
appeared rather nonplussed at her
looks, but being a man OF the world,
which means a man wise enough not
to tell a woman her faults, he said
nothing. She sat and chatted grace
fully, and had a delightful evening.
AS soon as he had gone she rushed
to the mirror, as every girl does
when her beau leaves. She gave
one scream and went of into
Mysteries, for in her haste and the
dark she mad dipped her powder puff
into q box OF pulverized charcoal,
and she had the make up. OF an

contrast to her dainty organdie
gown and blonde hair was very
funny, but she never smiled again.
