Corns ON Nerrous Children.

A chiropodist says that nervous chill
dren are apt to have corns. This is
oftentimes because such clinch the fin
gers slightly, almost imperceptibly, and
are apt to draw up the toes at the same
time. 1t is a slight but frequent move
ment, and it cramps the toes and final
" irritates the tender surface at the
joints. He emphasizes again that it
is not broad shoes so much as long shoes
that should be worn by growing chill
dren, and asserts that the pointed-toe
shoe, against which such catalogue of
indictments has been brought, is by
no means such unhygienic wear as

and the light it threw was powerful.
Suddenly, in the road ahead, half

SUNDAYS SERVICES.
Special to the Jersep Citv Ncirs.

NEWARK, March 80, 1Sss.-Sunday
yesterday was a busy day for the Bishop
and many of the pastors attending the
conference because there was a change
in the pulpits of the churches in the city.
1t was an anxious, solemn yet joyous
day for a score of young preachers who
were ordained deacon5 and elders. In st.
Pauls Church in the 6~lorning the Bishop
preached before a vast congregation and
at the close of the sermon the deacons
named in Saturdays News came one
by one before him, and when he had laid
his hands on them while they knelt he
solemnly consecrated them to the high
calling of a minister of Christ's church.
Each deacon elect answered the questions
ON of hands all knelt in prayer and then
the solemn ceremony ended.
In the afternoon in Roseville Church
the Rev. f. A. Buttz, president Of Drew
mon prior to the ordination of the elders,
and a similar ceremony was gone
mons were addressed particularly to the
duties devolving on a minister.
An old-fashioned Methodist love feast
took place in St. Pauls, Church at the
early hour of nine o'clock. This was led
by the Rev. Lewis r.. Dunn. Prayers
We're offered by members of the congre-
ticn, and the meeting was, as DR.. Dunn
said, "a great outpouring of the spirit"
The missionary cause was the theme
of an admirable sermon in st. Pauls
Church in the evening by the Rev. Joseph
A. owen, A. M, and as at the other SER
vices, the building was packed. DR..
owen, an extremely eloquent man, told
his hearers what the missions had done
for the church. and the collection at the
close of the sermon will swell the mis-
sionary e%xcheauer by many hundreds of
dollars.
In Presbyterian and Reformed churches
many of the pastors preached at both
services, While those who were not as
signed to any pulpit hocked to hear the
anniversary of the Conference Board of
This meeting was of a semi-religious
character. the major part of the time be-
ing occupied by a speech from the Rev.
George K. Morris. D. D., of Boston Theo-
logical School, who discussed exhaustive
ly the necessity of extending the Meth
odist schools and colleges.

Theodore Chaser reported to the police
yesterday that the apartments occupied
by his mother and himself in the formers
house at No. 430 Ocean avenue, were en-
tered on Saturday night and r~ansacked.
Entrance was effected by means of a
step-ladder and a back window. The rob
Der turned his attention to the different
articles of wearing apparel about. the
rooms, and searched the pockets of them
all. A little land bag in which Mrs.
CHASER is accustomed to carry her bank
book when she goes to deposit money, was
cut. pen and the contents thrown on the
floor of the hallway. All the thief secured
was s.xty-one cents from the watch pock-
ct of Mr.. Glaser's trousers.
Mr. Chaser suspected James O'Neill. 90
theft. His reason for suspecting him
was tina he procured change for a five
dollar bill from him in a saloon near Mr..
Glaser's home. In taking the bill he
placed it with others of different de-
nominations In the watch pocket of his
trousers. He noticed O'Neill eying him
while he did it. When he retired for the
night he placed the bills in his vest pocket
according to his custom, and locked the
vest in a closet. The pockets of his
trousers were turned inside out by the
thief.
Yesterday afternoon, at four o'clock, De-
ed O'Neil on Ocean avenue. He was
locked up as a disorderly person. This
morning Justice Douglass held him for
examination.

only passes, in which the air was famed
and her husband's face. which she in
tended to hit, merely cooled by the

Bernitt successfully escaped her awful
right and sought safety in a nearby
saloon. He told some friends, however,
mat ne did not run away from her for
rear OF being whipped, but because he
was afraid he might get mad and hit
her back, and hat he would not Ike to

Bernitt, his friends say, is a paragon
OF chivalry. He is seeking a divorce
