ty Supt. Harmon feasted the teach
ers on water melons which they
must have enjoyed Judging from
the slaughter they made on his
generous collection.
Also at the party pleasant fea-
ture was the collection of nice
variety of fruits placed at the dis
posal of our visitors. And how
they did enjoy it! Why the con-
tents of that table was almost de-
molished, although liberal sup
ply had been provided. + might
state, by way of explanation, that
there was very large attendance
at the party.
Friday was Field Day, an out
ing down to Sulphur Springs to
the Levirkin Bench where the
teachers and visitors partook of
the whole hearted hospitality of
Brother Thomas and Samuel Judd
and family, who provided choice
varieties of grapes, peaches, and
melons, and made welcome indeed.
After luncheon, nearly all took a
bath in those wonderful, health
preserving springs, after which
the teachers separated with a
hearty goodbye, and q warm in
vitation to come again.
Supt Harmon, the committees and
the people of Toquerville did all in
their power to make the institute q
success, which we think it was in
every sense of the word. Our
hearts and homes were thrown
open to the visitors and they were
made to feel and realize they were
indeed our friends and were
heartily welcome.
We trust this will not be the
last gathering of the kind in
Toquerville. Indeed we antlci.
pate that Toquerville will ere long
become one of the great centers Of

The Rev. Reuben Esawes breaches
in trinity Church, Hoboksn.

The Rev. Reuben w. Howes of New
York, preached at the morning service
yesterday in Trinity Episcopal Church,
Hoboken. The congregation turned out
in large numbers.
Many of the old members of the church
knew Mr.. Howes when he was rector of
Trinity twenty-five years ago, and they
were anxious to give him a warm recep-
ton.
The preacher made no allusion in his
sermon to his past connection with the
church, but after the service he enjoyed
& hearty hand shake with many Of his
friends. He said he VAS glad TO see so
many old faces and ~officiate once more at
his old charge. He remarked about the
many changes that had taken place in the
church inc he was rector.
The evening service was conducted by
Rev. DIR. Houghton. DR.. Houghton, al
though having severed his connection with
the church, will probably conduct the SER
vices next Sunday unless the Boar OF
Vestrymen in the meantime engages an
nfher rector

The Rev. Mr.. Wick has propounded a
number Of very interesting and important
questions to two hundred laymen of this
city. II the recipients of the questions are
selected without prejudice from men re-
presenting all varieties of opinion, the
answers ought to be useful and instruc-
tive.
It is to be presumed that Mr.. Wick is
not exaggerating the state of facts out of
which his questions grow. If he is not,
the most remarkable fact is that he or
any clergyman remains in doubt as to the
cause One would think that only a very
simple induction was necessary to satisfy
snyone's mind on the subject.
We have little hope that any points
Mr.. Wick may get from his consultants
will lead the church extremists to see
the error of their ways. No doubt the
present evils will have to go further be-
fore there Is any improvement. Perhaps
when the financial sourc of the
churches are affected, the great truth will
begin to be realized that people cannot
be wooed even to religion by insulting
their sense of reason and Justice and do
ing violence to all their natural inclina-
lions and desires.

NURMURING IN ESSEX.
[From Saturdays "Tribune.1l

TFrom Saturdays Tribune
To make matters worse. there are mur-
murings against Smith in his home county
of Essex. The Democratic candidates de-
clare thai he gave them no help what
ever, and thai his sole interest in Tues
days election was the selfish one OF try
Ing to procure the election of Democratic
Senators pledged to vote for his re-elec-
ton. The men who make these eom-
plants are unreasonable. What do they
suppose that Smith is in politics for2 TO
help people get clerical offices in which
they can be of no use to him? Not much.
One amusing outcome of these bicker-
ings among Essex Democrats is that the
Smith brigade, acting on instructions from
head quarters. are trying to throw all the
blame on Colonel Price. OF course, the
Colonel is not responsible. He did all
that he could. But he is to be made the
scapegoat in order to protect Smith from
the wrath of friends of the candidates
whom he deserted. and. likewise, because
an opportunity is desired to get rid OF
Price and put in his stead a reliable smith
henchman.

GAME FISH FOR JERSEY WATERS
Monthly Report Of Fish and Game
Protector Schrimer.

Especial to THE Jersey City News..l
PATTERSON, Nov. s, 1S97.-Charles A.
Shriener. Fish and Game Protector, has
just issued his report for the month of
October.
The principal work lone during the
month was the bringing to his State Of
a number of adult fish from Lake Erie.
This is the third trip of the kind made BY
wardens, and. like its predecessors, it was
successful, although attended with some
difficulties. The risk necessarily attend
ing the transportation of fish during
warm weather is a temptationrto postpone
work of this character until cold weather
has arrived; but experience has shown
that late in the season the FISH go to deep
water, and difficulties arise in the secur-
ing of fish of suitable size. In the TWO
previous trips referred to above, an at
tempt was made to bring to New Jersey
the pike perch and channel catfish, the
former for general distribution and the
latter for large bodies of water, especially
the Delaware River. This object having
been accomplished to a certain extent,
more attention was paid this year to the
procuring of the silver or white bass, a
fish which, from its gamy qualities, beau-
llIQi appearance anu SAGSilSIiir ll6Sil,A OuiQ
make a very desirable addition TO the
fishes of this State. Wardens Kerr, Hen
dershott, Dare and Hill started for Lake
Erie during the early part of the month,
but were delayed considerably on ac-
count of the warm weather which set in
about that time after 4 week OF lower
temperature. In order to procure the
fish wanted, it was necessary to go by
steamer some fifty miles from Toledo TO
the fishing grounds. and although bass IN
considerable quantities were obtained,
there was a great deal Of trouble in bring
ing them TO Toledo in sufficiently vigor-
II condition to permit of their Transport
tation further cost. Several attempts of
this nature failed. but finally one thou
sand fish. principally white bass, the rest
being pike perch and channel catfish, were
secured, and these were brought through
to Paterson with exceedingly small loss in
transit. The fish arrived early on Sunday
morning, and their removal to other parts
of the State would have been extremely
hazardous; consequently they We're placed
in a reservoir OF the Passaie Water Com
pany kindly placed at my disposal. Here
they can remain until the present rush of
distributing fish is over. and when colder
weather will make their remova attended

Ths Th...pie.l A.sschmens outrage

Once again a theatrical company was
made the victim on Saturday night, in
this city, of the barbarous law of attach
ment which dlsgraces the statute books
Of this State. Year after year, the public
sense of justice and decency is shocked
by occurrences OF this kind, and yet the
Legislature takes no action. Many actors
and nag of eminence will not play
in the state because they have been the
victims OF legal outrage on former occa-
sions.
As the law stands, the man who OBJ
tains an attachment of the kind alluded
TO incurs no responsibility for his act, and
neither does the Justice who issues 1t.
The complaint may be a mere invention.
The motive may be malice or blackmail-
The complainant may give a false name
ana address, may run away the mo-
ment the attachment is issued. The de-
PENDANT party has nc rights, no oppor-
tunity. He has no means of answering
the attack or defending his rights without
making a business sacrifice of an impos-
sible sort.
..The News has frequently directed at
tention to this evil; but the Legislature
is either busy playing politics or else
its members are unwilling to incur the
political hostility of the Justices of the
Peace by doing anything to curtail their
fees. The evil is. therefore, indefinitely
prolonged. Perhaps the very obvious
case of abuse of the law at the Academy
on Saturday may lead some of the new
Hudson ~Assemblymen to introduce a bill
which will result in reform.

Thirty-sixth street, New York. S%ehlichting
engaged Dewell to work in his shop from
Saturday night to Sunday noon, agreeing
to pay him "a for his services. Yesterday
morning Dewell quit work before the
time stated in the agreement has expired,
so Schlichting gave him only $3.50.
Demanded the full amount and an
nounced that unless it was paid he would
make trouble
After a heated argument Dewell seized
a razor. He chased the barber-justiee
around the shop and then made q vicious
slash ait Something's throat. The razor
took OFF a bunch OF Schlichting's whiskefs,
but fortunately did not injure him.
Policeman McCurdy arrived before
pewell mad carried out his murderous in
{eations. and took him to the Willow ave-
nue. police station, where he was locked
