ST. PETERS ANNIVERSARY.
solemn Ceremonies VIII MARK the
Fifth Year of Consccration.

Next Sunday will mark the fifth anniversary
Of the conservation of St. Peters Church. In
the absence Of the rector, the Rev. John
Harpes, who is now making a retreat in
Baltimore, Md. the task Of making prepara-
tions fitting the occasion has fallen on the
shoulders OF the Rev. Father Thomas Harlan.
At h~alf-past ten a solemn high mass will
be celebrated by Rev, Father .Cryan, as
sisted by Fathers Petit and Busana. 1t was
expected that the chaneel choir Of boys
would be replaced by q mixed quartette and
chorus Of male and female voices. but as
soprano, SO the choir will remain the same
as heretofore. The address will be made by
the Rev. Father coyle. professor of classics
at St. Peters College.
The success of the Jesuits in st. Peters has
been unprecedented in the annals Of the diocese
OF Newark. In the last five years they have
paid off the debt on their church and under
the rectorship of Father Harpes have re-
duceG the mortgage on their residence more
than twenty-five thousand dollars.
Ii is now their intention to make their
church the most artist. in the city. To this
end they have erected in the northeast corner
glass window representing the Presentation
of the Virgin Mary. This window is most
beautifully colored. It was made in Holland
and imported by them in sections at the cost
this one will be donated by different members
OF the parish and will perpetuate the memory
OF the donors for future generations, as their
names will be Inscribed In Gothic letters at
the bottom of the window. The remaining
windows viii represent the mysteries Of the
rosary and as a work Of art viii surpass
anything of a like kind In the State. Father
Harpes hopes to have the series completed by
the end OF the year.
In the evening grand vespers viii be sung
by Father Finnegan, followed by a prelude
and benediction. Before the exercises com
menee Sunday morning it will be announced
that the annual garden party shall be given
in September by the members OF the Voting
Mems Lyceum. the success of which Is hoped
to be as great as that Of last year.

tai strain as well it tends to build up
that mems sana in corpere sano, which is
the most unfayorable condition to I'M
moral tendencies. On abstract psycholo-
gical and physiological grounds We should
be inclined to regard the wheel as the
most potent aid to good living that has
yet been vouehsafed either to young men
or young women.
Riding the wheel not only builds up
the muscles, expands the lungs and tones
Up the liver and stomach; but it also
braces the nerves and drives languors
and vapors out of the brain. It culti-
Yates sharpness of observation, q~uickness
of thought. courage. self-confidence, self
respect and regard for others.
AS for modesty, a bad woman may be
immodest on or off the wheel. But when
iInlnodesty is found on the bicycle, it may
be accepted as certain that it was a de-
~velopment antecedent to the adoption Of
the sport.
# the assertion is true that the per-
centage of downfall among young women
is increasing. the cause must be sought
somewhere else. We are very sceptieal
as to the fact. We think the assertion
is the historical shrek of an irresponsible
busybody. But, if it is true, we be-
lieve the cause may be found unerringly
IN a study of the consequence of Park
hurstian erusading. 1t is an old story.
There is lots Of history to throw Light

HAMMoNroN, July & 1ss6.-A shooting
affair which nearly cost the lives Of Antonio
Lisi and carnineo Tomasce, two italian resi-
dents Of this town, took place here yesterday
afternoon. They started out shortly after
noon to pick huckleberries, and finding q good
place on the West Mills cranberry bog they
began to pick. They had filed several baskets
when a man came running across the bog
who ordered them to give up the berries and
clear out.
This they refused to do and the man Sc
cured a gun and gave chase. He soon over
took them, and. as they claim. shot two bar
rels at each Of them. They managed with the
aid of each other to make a way to a neigh
Dor. who brought them to Justice Atkinson. A
doctor was summoned, who found them filed
within shot from head to toe. The most Of the
shot were removed. Tomasco and Lisi both
claim the shooter to be Samuel Craig. man
ager of the boys. Constable Bernshouse started
for Craig with a warrant yesterday after
noon.

Bribery In Camden License Awards.

Special to tRs J6iwcu
CAMDEN, July 3 1s9s.-The action Of the
Excise Board in granting licenses 70 persons
who have been convicted Of selling on sunday
and to minors. and Withholding licenses from
reputable saIo&keepers, is condemned BY
man yleading citizens. The action Of the
members in refusing to allow citizens to ap-
pear before them to sustain renionStrances Is
also severely criticised
The members Of the board who were elected
by the Committee of One Hundred. at the
sittings Of the Commissioners have only in
timared that money has been used by saloon
keepers 10 secure their licenses. One Of the
leading Republicans of Camden said night.
ssThe action of the members is disgusting and
peculiar, and perhaps the serious insinuations
publicly made will be investigated.
Peter Side. proprietor Of the West Jersey
Hotel. Camden. was held in ball yesterday
by Mayor Westcott for a further hearing,
charged with selling liquor without a license.
The complainant was Harry Price, excise in
spector. who said that he purchased iquor
at the place, which has not been licensed.
