son. % years old. of No. s52 First street,
boarded a Montgomery street car bound
for Bergen avenue When the conductor

quainted with the eompany's spoilers he
again he stopped the car and puf heT

last night in Pohimann's Hall. The audi
ence in attendance was the poorest this

sisted of Miss Helene Brandt, soprano;
c. Steinbuch, baritone; Louis Eckert,
violinist, and the Teutonia Mannerehor
Miss Brandt was presented with a hand
some basket of flowers by Valentine

RABoTBAU no rae TBMPLARs.

A large delegation Of knight Templars
attended services in the Parmly Memorial
Church last night and listened to an inter-
esting sermon by the Rev. Claude Rabo-
teau. The altar was decorated with
shields of the order, and for the first time
the pastor used a magnificent new brass
pulpit, a gift to the church by Randolph
Parnly, son of the late pastor. Rev. Mr..
Raboteau spoke of the objects of the or
der, which he said was the Oldest in the
world. He spoke6o of the time when the
Knights Ternplars took a prominent part
in wars in the Crusades, and said that they
were working now in a peaceful way to
accomplish good. He said he was a be-
lever in fraternal organizations for the
reason that IN various ways they accom-
plished work that churches could not
reach.

NAVAL RESERVES ACTIVE.
for the Summer Work In
Open Roats.


There is great activity on board the
old sioop of war Portsmouth, and the
nava reserves are getting ready for
their outdoor work on the river and along
shore. The old vessel is to be thoroughly
repaired and put in ~ship-shape. She is
to have a new dress, both inside and out.
and is to be fully rugged. When she is
painted and all her top. hamper is in
place she viii present a far more at
t~ractive appearance than she does now,
for, full rugged, she is one of the most
graceful craft afioat. Years ago, when
she was launched, she and her sister
ships of the same class were the hand
soonest, fastest and best all-around sloops
of war in the world, and the Portsmouth
attracted wide attention at every port
into which she carried the Stars and
Stripes. THE great gun drill has been
discontinued and hereafter the crew of
the Portsmouth will be drilled in in
fantry tactics and the use Of the rapid
fire guns and light battery. About the
first Of next month the boat drills will
commence. These are the most interest,"
ing part of the amateur tarS' duty, and
this year will be particularly so, as it is
intended to cruise along the coast for the
purpose of surveying the creeks. rivers
and inlets, with a view of locating the

The Battalion of the East now CON
sists Of three divisions, a third having
been mustered in at Hoboken on last
Tuesday. 1t mustered forty-five strong.
Tn Orange Division still lacks a couple
of men to make up the requisite mini
mum Of ~thirty-six, n it is rumored
that it will be consolidated with the First
Division of Jersey City.
The first cutter of the Portsmouth
which has been housed in the Triton
boathouse all winter, will be taken to
the Crescent shipyard at Elizabethport
tomorrow to be scraped and painted.
The Newark boys will probably enter
two crews in the Decoration Day regatta,
the Jersey City Division one, and there
may be a racing crew to represent the
Ajax, the vessel of the Battalion of the
East.
The Friday night classes for petty Of
ficers on board the Portsmouth will be
discontinued after two weeks more, and
Saturday afternoon classes will be sub
stituted therefor. The course of instruc-
ton in these classes has not yet been
mapped out.
There are still a few vacancies in the
Jersey City Division, and all citizens of
the State between the ages of IS and 45,
physically strong and of a good moral
character, are eligible to membership.

2. W. woolley. His Work aud His
Paw.

The course taken by E. w. wool.ey,
on Saturday, in respect to the fling o.
certificates of nomination comes in at g
good time to show the people what they
are doing if they vote to continue such
a man in Office. Tt completely substantf-
ates the charges which nave been made
against him by Democrats, based upon
his course last fall. 1t shows that his
conception of his duty as City Clerk Is
not to administer the business of cleo
aons with fairness and impartiality; but
to use the powers of his office to win
every advantage he can for his own party
and deprive the Democracy of even the
right to poll its full vote for its chosen
candidates.
1t is perhaps fortunate that Wool,ey
thus shows his hand at this time. Be-
ter that his outrages are perpetrated now,
when a minor contest is being waged.

might have the effect of cutting down

The reason why Woolley is so anxious

EASTER AT GREBNVILLE REFORMED

an Interesting Service.
The Greenyille Reformed Church held 4
special service of song last evening in
which the choir, of the Sunday School
aided the church choir. The proficiency
displayed by the little ~gongsters was due
mainly to the training they have receiy-
ed from Mrs. Edward Kyle. The selec-
tons by the choir were rendered in their
usually fine style. The Rev. Charles &.
Clist was the visiting clergyman, the
church being still without a pastor.
The floral decorations were palms and
Easter lilies. Twentydour of the lilies
were purchased by the Infant Glass Of
the Sunday School. After they served
they will be distributed among the SICK

ton last night were requested to leave
the addresses OF any such whom they

The Publication OF the Laws By
Pampzslel.


The system which abolishes the publi-
cation of the laws of each session in
newspapers requires the printing in
pamphlet form of $4,000 copies of all
statutes, to be issued to such people as
the Secretary of State may select, and
also to all who may apply for them by
mail on personally. Under this plan. the
State is printing this year the 5000
pamphlets; but the most it has been able
to circulate is about 1000. This prac-
tically means that only some of the law
yers, the newspapers and public officials
nave been supplied with copies. There is
no popular demand for them. and, prac-
tiealiy. the laws remain unpromulgated
This was just what might be expected.
Few people win take the trouble to pro-
cure public documents of this or any
other sort. They take their chances on
breaking the law rather thar take the
trouble of procuring It to read. But this
apathy on the part of the public hardly
serves to excuse the laxity of the State
in falling to place before the people
the laws which they are expected to
obey. The courts hold that ignorance of
the law excuses no one. It is, therefore.
the duty of the State to take pains that
the law shall be forced upon e~veryone's
attention.
The abolition of the publication of the
laws is an injustice to the people. 1t is
contrary to the spirit Of Republican in
situations. 1t is IN economy, 10 be sure.
it is an econom opposed to public
policy. And, as for the economy, it is
only necessary to look at the sum total
Of the Appropriation bill TO realize how
false and hollow it is. The money is being
spent, and a great deal more too. The
only difference is that it is being spent
on jobs n s~Inecures in the interest of
