PULPIT ADVERTISING.

Et -
A Springfield, Mass, pastor sprang a SEN
~sational advertisement On his congregation
last week. He flooded the city with circu-
lars inviting wheelmen to the Sunday morn
ing service, which would be devoted to a
subject of special interest to those riding a
wheel. At the bottom of the circular
was the following:-''As representing the
highest degree of excellence IN the manu-
facture Of bicycles, two wheels will be used
in the pulpit by the pastor to Illustrate
points in his sermon. One, our Ladies' Model
No. 10, of which the largest dealer in New
England says, 1t is the handsomest wheel
made and the other, our Gentlemen's
Road Wheel, model G, not only the
strongest, bearing $40 pounds with ease and
safety, but the lightest, easiest running and
heetest, as the records of recent meets will
show" A reporter who was present says
1.-The pastor chose his text from Job Xxx. ,
%: Thou causest ne to ride upon the wind.
The entire service was little less than an i'm
mense advertisement for the company, and
is the first case on record where the pulpit
has been engaged as the advertising medium
of any particular kind of wheel" Appreci-
ating the position in which he was placed
with the wheels Of q certain firm so promi-
nently exhibited on the platform, the pastor
refrained for the greater part of the time
from referring to the name of the manufac-
turers, but in his description brought out
most of the superior points which are claimed
for this especial make. This opens up a new
field for advertisers, but it is doubtful If any
one will attempt to follow the example,

BANGING THE TARGETS
Excellent Practice on the Mar
ion Range--Big Score Of
Company A.

The sun beat down upon the Fourth Regi-
ment range at Marion on Saturday as if it
meant to work dire mischief with the
marksmen, but a light breeze proved q
pleasant antidote and the targets were
peppered for high scores. The attendance
was large and nearly 1000 rounds of ammu-
milton were fired. The plan of seoring-a
scorer for each target-suggested by The
JERSEY CITY NEWS at the opening of the
season, was again adopted. Rangemaster
Lieutenant A. T. Brown, who is not slow to
recognize a good thing when he sees it, has
decided to follow this plan throughout the
season.
The only accident of the day occurred to
Lieutenant Brown, who had a narrow es-
cape from serious injury. The breach lock
of his rife snapped of in firing and struck
him a severe blow on the forehead. The
chamber having lost its fastening few open,
and powder was blown into the Li~eutenants
face. The blow on the forehead stunned
him, and a few minutes elapsed before he
realized what had happened. The only in
juries he sustained were a few slight burns
on the face.
The feature of Saturdays shooting was
the team competition between Companies
A, Fl and F for the regimental trophy. Com
pany A beat its opponents, hands down,

the match, III points, an individual average
of 81 2-5. This score also beats by fifteen
points the previous high score of Company

excellent total of 80, which is the highest in

Chanceman Joseph Hartford of the First

from a terrible wound in the head, and
bodily injuries inflicted by Patrick Dolan.
Hartford and Dolan board with a Mrs. Flah-

into a row and a free fight ensued.
Mrs. Flaherty's screams of murder at

off duty. He rushed into the house with the
intention of stopping the fight. AS he en-

ford drew a blackjack from his hip pocket
and tried to defend himself. Dolan is a
powerfully built man and he easily wrenched
the blackjack from Harford's hands. He
then pounded Hartford with it unfnerci-
fully.

As the struggling men surged backward

nearer than his companions. and in an in

The dog subsequently, secured the seat of

that he is a servant, and is himself
up as a despot. This is the spirit
which has so often cringed before the
flourish of Williams club, and has
actually cheered the monster annually
at every police parade.
Add to all this the false and un-
healthy sentiment in some citizens,
the moral cowardice in others which
places and keeps upon the statute
books laws which are not borne out
bv the moral sense of the majority,
laws which the majority does not care
to have enforced, laws-a few of them
which the majority would not, for
a moment, stand the enforcement OF.
The penal code of New York is bur-
dened with a mass of humbugginS,
pharIsaical, impossible legislation OF
this kind, from the law which pre-
vents a Jew from selling a paper col
lar on Sunday morning to that which
obliges you to skulk and act a lie to
get a glass of claret with your dinner
at O fashionable restaurant on Sun
day, or a bottle of champagne at a
BAll after one A. NJ, from the ordln-
ance which forbids you to put a show
case on the sidewalk to that which
makes it a crime for a vendor of cab
bages to halt his wagon for more than
five minutes by the sidewalk on Ninth
avenue.
In the hands of an INSCRIPTIONS
police, these and many other precious
enactments are merely powerful in
struments of persecution. They are
founded neither on justice, reason nor
public desire. Nobody thinks of
blaming the police for not enforcing
them. So the police quietly encour-
age their violation, merely making 1t
plain that such violations are allowed
only during their good will and
pleasure, such good will and pleasure
being a purchasable commodity.
To effect a permanent reform, New
York, as all older cities of similar
metropolitan characteristics have
done, must face frankly and plainly
some facts in human nature-manY OF
them not nice facts. She must ascer-
tain the limits of possibility in govern
ment, especially in the government of
evil. She must cease to be guided by
fanatics, and extremists. She must
come dawn out of the clouds. She
mayInotb become a terrestrial paradise
by doing so; but certainly she may
cease to be a cesspool of organized
infamy, poisoning even her most re-
spectacle inhabitants and strangling
all vital good out of her politics and
her government.

After a short sermon by Pastor Hancox the
converts were called upon to give ''testi-
monies" All professed conversion. and
while the congregation sang hymns they
were marched out of the building. Pastor
Hancox, who was attired in a rubber gown,
led them to the waters edge. He then took
one of the men by the band, walked out
into deep water, and baptized" him. The
other man, whose wife was also converted,
was present and demurTed at going it
alone" and his wife and he were baptized to-
gether. The last one to be emersed was an
elderly woman. She stood the ordeal even
better than the others.
While the converts were being immersed
the congregation gathered on the shore and
sang hymns, and at the conclusion of the
ceremony all attended the special praise
service which was held in the sanctuary.
On Thursday afternoon Pastor Hancox will
emerse a large number of converts. There

ThelRev. DR.. w. R. Jenyey of st. PauTs

Said DR.. Jenvey:-"One is always very
unwilling to suggest that any improvements
can be made to the teaching of the Bible,
but here is an instance where an improve
ment not only can be made but must be
made for it. Paul did not write to
Timothy as here translated in the text,
presenting hin as suggesting something
above Jesus Christ, but what he meant was
to remember Jesus Christ Timothy had
been made a bishop and had heen lifted from
the cares and trials and ~hardships that had
been before him and st. Paul wanted to
write and tell him something which would
be of constant Importance to him. He knew
nothing better than to write HIM to 'renem-

NO RAILROAD CONFERENCE.
Vest erdayss Joint Meeting Called

A Joint Conference of all organized labor
and railway. organizations was called for
yesterday morning i'll the Bon Ton Theatre.
The object Of the. Conference was, accord ding
to a call signed by William Brennan, to ''de-
liberate on the great legislative problem of
the Legislative Board Of Railroad Employees.
The presiding officer of the latter board is,
it is alleged, not q member OF any labor or
ganization and is Il nephew of a Superin-
tendent Of q railroad. Mr.. Brennan and has
followers do not believe that such a presid-
ing officer can be q safe and trustworthy
servant to the interests of organized labor.
The call further set forth that 1T is our
belief that we have in the ranks OF labor
men well fitted for sa.h work without step
ping outside the circle of union principles to
ask a man in SO close proximity to a railroad
corporations interest to lead us to victory
For some reason The call for the meeting
was cancelled and did not take place. 1t was
understood that Governor Werts, Mayor
Wanser, Samuel Gompers, T. Y. Powderly
and J. P. Mcdonnell were to be the speakers.
