TWO MASSES IN ALL SAINTS.
The Provisional Church Too Small
TO Accomodate the Worshfnners

That Lafayette has felt sorely he
need of a Catholic Church for the
accommodation of the faithful lfv-
ing in that section has been evident
for some time. The real necessity for a
Catholic place of worship prompted
Bishop Wigger to cut off a portion of
st. Patrick's parish, including Lafayette,
and organize there the new parish, which
has been named All Saints parish.
Mass was SAID in the new parish church.
Lafayette Hall, No. 146 Wilton street.
for the first time last Sunday. The num-
Der of people who turned out to attend
mass has been talked Of in Catholic
circles since. They occupied the first
pew and they stood on the sidewalk
curbing. The ha1 procured was not
large enough to accommodate all the
Catholic residents of Lafayette at two
masses. 1t was this exhibition which
caused the pastor, the Rev. Father Joseph
M. Meehan, to decide that another mass
must be said, and as soon as an assistant
can be procured another and earlier mass

present are $50 and 1890 A.. NJ. TIL new
mass wiz be said at $50 A. NJ. Father
Meehan will announce when the new mass

The two masses yesterday were just as

OFFICIALS SCORED.
The Rev. MI. Beatty Pays
His Respects to Hobo
ken's Authorities
in a Sermon.
TWO MASSES IN ALL SAINTS
Bishop Starkey Unconsecrates the
Old Building Of the Church Of
the Holy Cross-0ther
Services.
TWO MASSES In ALL SAINTS

The Rev. Mr.. Beatty preached on the
liquor question at the First Presbyterian
Church, Hoboken, yesterday morning. He
took for his text, Romans xiii: 1S, LET
us walk honestly as in the day; rest IN
rioting n drunkenness, not in clamoring
and wantonness, not in stiffness and
~envying."
Among his remarks he said, go to the
city officials and tell them of how the
law is being broken by these ~saloon-keep-
ers and what do they say? They laugh at
your efforts to interfere with the liquor
traffic. You learn that a Police Comms-
sfoner has his saloon open along with the
rest of them. Do the Police Colnrnss-
sioners stop the violation Of the law? Not
much Does the chief executive of the
city? Not much.
What are the remedies?. Many schemes
are suggested. The prohibition movement
to restrain all sales of liquor is one, the
local option idea is another; high license
is another; placing the liquor traffic in
the control of the Government is still an
other. The city of Hoboken does not at
tempt to restrict the saloon-keeper and
for that reason Hoboken is cursed. If we
had straightforward, honest, clean men
occupying the official positions in Hobo
ken's government there would be a diff
ference; the saloon-heeper would not then
be allowed to do as he pleased.
ST the government received the pro-
ceeds of the saloons instead of every
Tom, Dick and Harry, there would not
be the chance for swindle and crime that
there is now.
want to try to educate public sem
timent to believe that the saloon-keeper
is no better than any one else. In this
town he thinks that he is better than any
one else. We as church people ought to
wake up Throw off our indifference. Dc
not be afraid to attack the saloon-keeper
in fear that you Will become unpopular"
The Police Commissioner who limited at
is John Drumming who has recently
opened a beautiful fitted up saloon at
Washington and Tenth streets. Drumming
had his front door open on Sunday as
do many of the saloon-beepers in Hobo
ken. Mr.. Beatty noticed this bold VIOLA
ton of the law hat Sunday while out
for a walk and then made a caN ON Mayor
Pagan. Mr.. Beatty aid that the Mayor
had refused to close the saloon or to
take any part in having 1t closed.
Mr.. Beatty said he will apply to the
courts and ave Mr.. Drumming compelled
to observe the law. Commissioners Brun-
ming. sad that his saloon was open one
Sunday, but for inspection only.

The Tabernacle Going 10 b Hill
The new move of the Tabernacle con-
eregation, which, beyond all doubt, Will
be made tonight, is one more step in the
AEpnigration of this city from the flats to
the Hin. OF course, everyone concerned
gill deny that there is to be any trans
Fer Of the centre of activity, but the
aispassionate observer knows better.
The story is an old one. First a down
town church acquires an annex on the
Hill. Later the annex becomes ~headquar-
ters and the down town branch degener-
ates into the annex. From this to the
dropping of the down town branch alto
sether Is only a short step. Either there
is q severance and h churches run in
dependently for a while until the old one
withers and dies. or else it is closed up
in short order or sold to some other
denomination.
Just how neal the Tabernacle will come
to following the beaten course, it is too
early to prophesy. Inside a year or two
there will be a wholesale movement of
It's parishioners to the South Bergen Dis
trdct. Then attendance will degenerate
al the down town services, and the voice
OF DR.. scudder will excite the enthusi-
asm Of Republicans on the Heights. This
win be the critical period.
Perhaps the salvation of the old place
win be found in the Peoples Palace
scheme. There is no field for the Palace
on the Hill. It is at home just where
1t is. No matter where the congregation
may take up its devotional headquarters,
It must keep its big benevolent enter
prise In the crowded down town region.
So here is a permanent use for the pres
ent property. Perhaps in a few years.
when It is no longer profitable to hold
services down town, some of b real
estate may be sold and the proceeds
devoted to putting VI a Peoples Palace
worthy of the name On the rest of the
land.
We wish Mr.. scudder success in his
new field. Apart from his politics and
some extreme and objectionable social
views. we recognize in him a sincere and
earnest teacher of virtue, probity and
charity. Putting his work as a preacher
aside entirely, he has done high public
service in the foundation of the Peoples
Palace, which is one of the best institu-
tions of its kind In the country.

ssThe War Of W ealth,s at the Academy
C. 7. Dazey's latest melodrama, 1.-THE
War of Wealth. will be seen in this city
at the Academy of Music this week. 1t
comes fresh from its great triumph
achieved at the close of last season, when
it ran three months in New York to over
flowing houses To enter into the de-
tails of the story is maTifestly imIos-
sible. The scene of the frs. act Is lad
on the banks of the Hudson, the second
act shows a ballroom and the interior of
a great banking. vault. The action of the
third act takes place in an express office
and shifts ito the banking institution, the
interior of which is shown Through the
big plate glass windows IS seen the crowd
of angry ~depos.tors clamoring for their
money. The finish of this act is said to
banks funds have become exhausted and
the doors are about to be closed an ex-
press wagon comes dashIng up with imam
eial aid, and, of course, the bank is
saved.
The play is said to be plentifully sup
piled with excellent comedy which Is
furnished chiefly by an old Tennessee
major, whose faith in his W himer
cal schemes is ~boundless; a loyal old
negro servant of the Chad type, who has
stuck to his master through thick and
thtn-"mostly thin" the major adds with
grim humor; an unsophisticated young
IN Africa, and a young girl who falls in
love with him and succeeds IN extracting
a proposal of marriage from him. h
piece is deliberately staged, a special pro
duction having been gotten up for 1t. The
cast is a very strong n
