HOW OUR CITIZENS WILL CELEBRATE

The intense heat n the proximity OF
the Fourth gave the city today a SEMI
holiday appearance. In many places down
town business was suspended at noon.
while the employees and Others skipped
out Of town to spend the Fourth at the
seaside or in the mountains. Those who
were compelled 10 stay in town dragged
YEARLY through the streets with collars
whiting ana faces and heads dripping
with perspiration. 1t was. however, by
no means so hot as 1t was yesterday. and
towards the afternoon there was a pleas
ant breeze. But stin 1t was hot and the
sufferers in the streets devoutly wished
that thee could take off their flesh and
walk about in their bones.p
From an early hour this morning the
express people and porters At the railroad
depots were busy handling boxes and
trunks belonging to the fortunate who
could shake the dust Of the city from
their feet. The ticket clerks said that
the sea coast lines were the most patron
lied, and of all the places along the ccas1
Asbury Park was first with Long Branch
and Atlantic City a close second and
third. The Pennsylvania Railroad have
offered special Inducements in the mat
ter of stopping off at various places be-
tween routes, and the result, Il IS ex-
pected, win be the a marked increase in
receipts.
The busiest people in town today are
the firecracker vendors and those WHO sell
American flags. Many houses today are
being decorated In honor of the national
holiday. and the effect in uptown streets
and avenues particularly, is extremely at
tractive. For the benefit Of those on
the anxious seat about the weather, the

that Monday will be indeed a glorious Gsy.

The Water Specifications.

Basing the estimate Upon former bids,
we should be inclined to think the city
might get one or more bids for a 5o,000,00o
gallon supply, with a &c, o0o,0 600 watershed
behind it. for about $1,000, 900. The Flynn
concern had a bid not unlike that in the
last competition, and the Jersey City
company's famous bid was not unlike
this in character and was about the price
we name. Basing a calculation, too, upon
the perennial bid of the Rockaway and
Hudson Company, and the Flynn bid
which was recently near getting the
award, we should think the figure we
name was not improbable.
For the second pipe line, with a capac
ity of 80. 900, 900. we should think 50, 600, 900
would be asked-perhaps more, seeing
that the bidder will have to take the
chance Of fluctuations in the price Of
metal and of labor for an indefinite period
of years.
If a bid for what the city asks is put
in at from $4,000 600 to s., SOC, 900, there can
be no conceivable excuse for refusing it.

Catholic Maidens Told Not to
Attend a Ball.
A PRIESTS FIRM DECREE
Will Be Responsible for Their
Arrests by the Police.
Father Fleming. of Orange. N. J.
Stirs Up His Flock by n Posi-
tive Edict.

New York, Nov. A-Father Flemlng,
of St Johns Roman Catholic Church, in
Orange, y. j., was angry yesterday, and
told his congregation so at the different
masses which he celebrated. Accord
ing 10 his statement a ball is to be given
tonight by the Peerless Athletic Associa-
ton in Center Street, Orange, and any
member of his church who dares TO at
tend is TO be taken in custody by the
police
NO matter what the time of the ar
rest, be il ! or o'clock in the morning,
l will go to the station house where the
prisoner is locked up and take charge of
| her" declared Father Fleming at the
conclusion of his lecture TO his congre-
cation.
Not only did Father Fleming forbid the
younger members of his congregation to
| attend the ball which is advertised TO
| take place this evening, but he said he
meant to look out sharply for the NOR
| ais of the young men and women attend
! ing his church especially. He declared
| he would keep them away from dances
| conducted by clubs composed of irres-
| ponsible young men at all hazards.
Father Fleming is opposed to young
| girls being away from home after dark
without proper escort, and he is determln-
ed. if possible to prevent them from ap-
pearing in the streets at all after night
| fall He also denounced the indifference
| of some parents. and gave them some oi
| his ideas in regard to the proper rearing
! of children.
Father Fleming naturally surprised his
congregation by his lecture, and created
no end of comment thereby. The church
! was filled TO overfiowing when the pastor
said he had arranged with the police L
| prevent any member of his congregation
from attending the ball. and his word:
spread like wildhre throughout the town
There We're already too many wretchet
| women in the streets of Orange he said
at the beginning. and he meant that this
wretchedness should gain no more re
cruits from his church, if il was in hi
power. He said he thought it a great sir
! for parents TO permit their daughters L
attend such dances as this athletic clul
had arranged to give.
| The news of Father Fleming's state
ment regarding the ball OF the Peerles
Club soon reached the ears of member
of that association, and there was grea
stir among them. They talked the matte
over. and concluded by appointing a com
mittee TO wait on Father Fleming. II
received them. and said that while he wa
not opposed to the association, he did no
think its entertainments of sufficient pro
priety to warrant the attendance Of an
! of the members of his church.
The police of Orange denied last nigh
that they had been asked to make Ar
rests at the ball by Father Fleming The
said they had no authority TO stop an
| one from attending q ball.

A PECULIAR REMEDY.
Something About the New Discovery
for Curing Dyspepsia.

The Rev r. J. Bell, a highly esteemed
minister residing in Weedsport Cayuga
Co, y. Y. in recent letter. writes
follows: There has never been anything
that 1 have taken that has relieved the
Dyspepsia from which have suffered for
ten years except the new remedy called
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Since TAX
ing them ] nave had no distress at all
after eating, and again after long years
CAN SLEEP WELL. Rev. +. l. Bell,
Weedsport \. Y, formerly, Idalia, Col
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a remark
able remedy. not only because IL is a GER
tain cure for all forms Of indigestion, but
because il seems to act as thoroughly in
old chronic cases of dyspepsia as well as
in mild attacks of Indigestion or bilious
ness. A person has dyspepsia simply be-
cause the stomach is overworked All it
wants is a harmless vegetable remedy
to digest the food and thus give it the
much-needed rest.
This is the secret of the success of this
peculiar remedy. No matter how weak
or how much disordered the digestion
may be, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will
digest the food whether the stomach
works or not. New life and energy is Civ
en- not only to the stomach but TO ev-
cry organ and nerve in the body. A trial
of this splendid medicine will convince
the most skeptical that Dyspepsia and
all stomach troubles can be cured The
tablets are prepared by the Il. A. Stuart
Co, OF Marshall Mich, but so popu-
lar has the remedy become that Stuart S
Dyspepsia Tablets can now De obtained

MANGLED UNDER
TROLLEY WHEELS
ExrANGLED IN THE Running GEAR
An Old Man Instantly Crushed to
Death, md n Woman Fatally
Injured.

New York, Nov. 14-James Morrisey,
sixty-seven years old, of No. &C Summit
Street, Brooklyn, and Mrs. Ann Lynch,
were struck by trolley car in Brooklyn
last night. Morrisey was instantly killed
and Mrs. Lynch so badly hurt that her
death is expected at any moment.
Mrs. Lynch, who is a relative of Nor
risey, called at his house TO spend the
afternoon and evening. Al 10 o'clock she
prepared to leave and Morrisey signifed
his intention of escorting her TO a Hamil-
ton Avenue car. He was crossing the
tracks Of the Nassau Railroad to catch a
car on the eastbound track when he was
struck by a car bound west.
Morrisey was dragged under the car
and became entangled in the running
gear. Desperate attempts to take him out
were unavailing, and it was necessary 10
raise the car on jack screws before he
could be removed. 1t was then found that
he was dead.
Mrs Lynch, who was struck at the
same time, was thrown TO one side of the
track and received fractured skull and
contusions on the face and body. An am
bulance was summoned from the Long
/ Island College Hospital and Mrs. Lynch
was removed there. She is supposed to be
| fatally hurt.
John Anglin. the motorman, was lock-
! ed up. charged with homicide. He is
! twenty-five years old.

employees OF the Nassau Railroad as un-
lucky. II was this ar which crushed the

TUNNEL BETWEEN
ENGLAND AND IRELAND
FOrty-MflIiOn-DolIn scheme to Pre-
vent "a Delay of Twenty
four Hours,

London, Nov. IA controversy has
been in progress for some time in the
Spectator on the suggested tunnel be-
tween England and Ireland. A writer in
the current number makes out that by
boring a tunnel between Scotland and Ire
land twenty-four hours would be saved in
the transit of mails to New York. The
tunnel would cost s4OO00,0c0.
Another correspondent, Liverpool man.
endeavors TO disparage Queenstown in the
interests of his own city. He gives an in
stance which he says occurred at the be-
ginning of the present month in connec-
tion with the homeward voyage of the
Teutonic. The vessel landed the malls
about midnight at Queenstown, and these
mails reached London between 6 and Z
o'clock the following evening, just about
the same time that the passengers who
Travelled TO Liverpool on the vessel reach
ed the metropolis.
The writer, arguing from this, trium-
phantly asks why should vessels stop at
Queenstown at all.
The answer is given by another writer,
who says: Why in the name of common
! sense did the postOffice keep the mails SO
| that they did not leave Ireland until eight
hours after being landed in Queenstown?
BY running a through special service the
letters coming by the Teutonic could have
been delivered in London before one of the
passengers stepped ashore at Liverpool.
| 1t is not the Queenstown route which is
| TO blame for delays, but the stupidity and
parsimony of the postal authorities. who
decline TO make full use of the great ad-
| vantageS which the route enjoys over
that from Liverpool"
