COntests.


Last night was the third of the profess
sional tournament in rogress at Newark
at Murray's Arcade. There was a large
attendance, the number being increased by
many visitors from this city, who made
the "trip for the purpose of witnessing the
games played by Gus Reuter- against Peter
Bey and James Dougherty. 1t waS ex-
pected Reuter- would win one game at
least. His best work was in the opening
game, in which he secured les balls
against 1875 for Bey. In the game with
Dougherty, Reuters defeat was more
pronounced than in the first, as he only
captured 100 balls in a string of 125.

ment to the large crowd present. Todd

ARSON TO HIDE THEFT.
A Little Colored Domestic's Double
Crime.
Epeciol to the Jersey itp Netus.

GLAsSBORO, Jan. %, 1S97.-Charged
with theft and arson, 14-year-old Ellen
Jackson, employed as a domestic in the
home Of Samuel H. Garwood, in Will
liamstown. was committed to the Glou-
cester County Jail yesterday afternoon.
During the absence of tie family on
Wednesday their residence was discover
ed to be on fire. Fortunately plenty of
help was at hand and after a heroic eff
fort the flames were e~xtinguished. The
fire had been kindled in one of the upper
rooms and it destroyed a part of the
furniture and charred nearly all the wood
work. A few minutes more Roadway
would have settled the doom of the
house, which is one of the incest in the
town.
When the family returned and made
an Investigation they found that about
5000 worth of jewelry and other valuables
had been stolen. Suspicion at once fell
upon the young domestic and she was
accused OF the double crime. After an
ordeal of questioning she broke down
n confessed the theft, but s~trenuously
denied having started the fire. She was
placed under arrest and Justice Bodine
committed her without bail.

N OF THE FOURTH
Many Entries for the Contests at
the Armory-Tournaments on
the Pool Table-Barry'sll
Reception.

The Catholic Club continued it's success
at home last night by disposing OF the
crack bowlers of the New Jersey Athletic
Club in the game of the championship
series of the Amateur Bowling Associa-
ton. The bowlers from Bayonne have
been doing excellent work in their games
on foreign alleys and it was expected they
would give the Catholic Club lots of
trouble. Such was not the case, how
ever. The Catholic Club beat them badly
IN the game on the New Jersey alleys
and had their nerve when the game began
last evening. The team was too anxious
and rolled in bad form. The home bowl
ers did not do as well as usual either, but
for all succeeded in winning by over 100
pins. There was a large crowd present.
The Palma and other organizations were
strongly represented. The games in
which the Catholic Gu figures are be-
coming exceedingly interesting. The team
is even with the Elizabeth Athletic Club
for the championship an the local bowl
ers are greatly interested in the Catholic
CLUBS success and turn out to root. They
nave a hard road to travel and m
work hard to hold their position in the
final games. The work last night was
A. 49, '
clever, and the home team rolled within
IS pins of the 160 average. Three new
member were put on the team last night,
but their work was not creditable and
they kept the team from increasing it's
general average at home. Smathurst,
Obergfell and Carroll were the men n
the latter was above the others with 14O.
On the first frame the N. j. A. G. was
only 4 pins ehind This was increased
to Al and A on the third. The New Jer-
seys tried hard to hold their opponents,
but the latter kept adding to the margin
py small degrees and on the fourth were
40 pins in front. At the end of the first
half the Catholic Club was So pins in the
lead: The bowling was more even in
the last half. the Catholic Club only sue
ceeding inl adding 50 pins to the gap that
existed IN the first five, which gave them
the game by 120 pins. The New Jerseys
failed to reach 300. For the home team
Tom Cavanagh, Wright and Coffman beat
the l0 mark. For N. j. A. c. Pitcher led

THE IDEAL VIRGIN.
Types of the Madonna
Handed Down by the
Great Painters Of the
Middle Ages.
REPRESENTATION OF CHASTITY
Pictured First as a Young Girl.
Later as a Mother-Catholic
News.

The subject of the different types Of
the ideal Virgin is at present occupying
the minds of the greatest painters of
sacred pictures.
The great artists Of each century since
the dawn of Christianity ave given to
the world their ideals of the Madonna.
The masters OF today are as devoted to
the task as were the Italian masters of
the Renaissance. and these, the world of
art is agreed, presented portraits truer
than those of any other period.
AS with Christ, nc veritable portraits
of the Virgin were handed down, but the
masters of the fifteenth and sixteenth
centuries were surrounded by influences
which gave them a clearer view of the
type of woman of early Christian times
than was possible with their followers.
Yet these.intluences were slight enough.
The ravages of the medieval era, the
terrible times of persecution and martyr
dom before the inal triumph of Chris
tianity severed all but the final thread of
tradition connecting the first century
with the fifteenth. But classical tradi-
lions and means were at their ripest ard
the fcrceful revival of all branches of
art which made the Renaissance a real
ity led powerful influences over the
painters ofsthat era.
The earliest types of the Virgin repre-
sent her without the infant Christ. and
not as a mother, but as a young woman
beautiful according to the ideas of an
tiquity. After the Council of Ephesus,
held in 4Sl, she was. however, repre-
scented as a mother, and it was at about
this time that the Greek element domi-
mated the art of the world.
The Madonnas, which the art world
ranks pre-eminent above all others, are
those of Mantegua, 1431-1506; of Lippo
Lippi, 1400-1469; of Perugino, 1446-1523; Of
Leonardo da Vinci, 1452-1519, and Raphael,
14S3-1520. Nearly all of these took as
their type the Roman matron, whose es-
sential attitude was chastity.
Perugino was. the inventor of a type of
beauty in his Virgins which has been
elaborated on by the succeeding genera
local style of beauty still common in
his native province of st. Francis of AS
sisi. These women have round and grave
faces, with delicately penciled eyebrows,
sombre eyes, and plainly arranged hair.
Perugino's Madonna has been the model
of many of the later artists of repute,
and today is the generally accepted ideal.
1t has strength and sweetness, and shows
a world of feeling in the tender melan-
choly of an inclined head, in the dreamy
languor of the eyes and the pathetic
grace of the silent lips.

CATHOLIC CLUB TEA.

A final meeting was held last night in
the parlors of the Catholic Club for the
arrangements of the blue and white tea
to be held at the clubhouse on Tuesday
evening. January rs.
It last nights meeting it was decided
to devote the gymnasium to dancing
only. Tea will be served in the parlors
between the hours Of eight and ten, and

twelve. The music will be furnished by
Cran1ner's orchestra. Every lady pres
ent will receive a handsome cup and
saucer as a souvenir.
The tea is given under the auspices of
the Games COMMITTEES, and they will be
assisted by the young ladies of the club
in receiving. On this night the club will
be handsomely decorated with the clubs
colors, and the ladies will wear them
also, which should make a fine appear
ance.
The committee of young men and ladies
who have the affair in hand are putting
forth their best efforts to make the tea
and dance a financial success.

TWO WIDOWS CLAIM AN ESTATE
They want tho Property Loft BIZ a
Palm IRA Man.

MOUNT HOLLY. Jan. %, 1S97.-An inter
esting legal contest will soon begin in the
Orphans Court of Burlington county over
the will of William Reed, a deceased resi-
dent of Palmyra. The contestants are
Maria and Lucy Reed, and both claim to
be the widow of William. The will,
however, provides that the property shall
be equally divided among Maria and the
children, and makes nc allus4on what
ever to the fairy Lucy, who, however,
thinks the omission of no consequence as
she is confident Of her ability TO estaD-
lish her claim when the matter is adj
Indicated.
The amusing feature of the case is
that both the alleged widows are living
in the same house in Palmyra and APP
parently have a very h~arInonious time of
it. neither one caring to begin ejectment
proceedings as long as there is any doubt
as to who IS the legal widow. The chill
dren seem in no wise inclined to enter
into the controversy, and are apparently
loyal to both xof the contestants.
