APERsEcuTep PROFESSOR.

1t is question much, discussed in theo-
logical circles whether the recent action
of Professor BriggA in applying to Bishop
Potter of the Protestant Episcopal
diocese of New York for holy orders will
not of necessity eau be an immediate sew
|erance of his relations with the Union
Theological seminary, with which he has
been SO long connected.
Prominent clergymen of the Presby-
Eerian denomination who have denounced
hescholarly Briggs upon almost every oc-
aston, will doubtless realize before long
bow serious an error was made when the
Eminent professor was virtually driven
rom the Presbyterian Church by their
Rrsecution, for it has amounted to little
SIS than that.

THE PRESIDENT FIRM.

President Mckinley cannot be accused
of haste in regard to the Spanish Cuban
question Throughout the whole con-
troversary he has remained the same
dignifed, courteous, individual-the rep
resentative of over seventy-five millions
of people. Hisanswer to the representa-
tives Of Great Britain, Russia, France,
Germany, Austria and Italy who waited
upon him yesterday, was as might have
been expected from brave leader, who
knew he had right on his side, thorough
ly American; the concluding word,
''insuferable' aptly sums up the situa-
ton. LIZ
The President in reply to~she note pre-
sented by the powers said:
The government of the United States re-
cognizes the good will which has prompted
the friendly communication of the representa-
tives of Germany, Austria-Hungary, France.
Great Britain, Italy and Russia, as set forth in
the address of your Excellencies, and shares

OUR FLEET AT KEY WEST READY TO
FIGHT IN TEN MINUTES.

Fifteen Warships Practically Cleared for
Action Without Loss of Time-All the
Gre tws in Splendid Shape-The Ships Are
All Coaled and Provisioned,
Key West, Fla, April 8.-Two battle
ships, an armored cruiser, monitor, three
protected cruisers, two gunboats and six
torpedo boats comprise the naval force as
sembled at this point.
This feet is practically cleared for action
and is ready for service at moments
notice. Should declaration of war come
tomorrow the fleet would be under way
and heading for Cuba within ten minutes
of the reception of the notice.
Nothing remains to be done in the way
of preparing for battle. The ships are all
coaled and provisioned. Their magazines
are full of ammunition, and the vessels
themselves have been stripped of all wood
work, even to their boats. These, with
the exception of the lifeboats, have been
towed to the basin at the government sta
ton, where they have been moored in
f1otillas.
In addition to all else, the crews of these
ships of war have been s'keyed to concert
pitch,' to use the phrase of an officer from
the flagship, who described the high state
Of discipline which prevails in the feet.

A sHAKINe-uP NEEDED.

Justice Lippincott. in his charge to the
new Grand Jury of Hudson county, said:
IF, whenever policy shop or a gamb-
ling place be found doing business, or
other criminal conduct Furnishing, the
police authorities be indicted for wilful
neglect of duty, it would be at once seen
how quickly the offenses will cease.
Neither these crimes nor others can con-
tinue very long in any municipality
without the indifference, acquiescence,
consent or connivance of the police au-
thorities. This neglect of duty entails a
relatively large expense upon the coun-
ty to perform the duties which should be
performed by the officers of the different
municipalities"
Justice Lippincott evidently knew
whereof he spoke when he charged as
above. There is, or was. in operation nc
later than last night gambling joint
located on the third floor of store fac
ing the Park in Morristown. Another
joint has been run for long time over
business house on South street. within
stones throw of the Park.
These places should be known to the
Police. 1t is the business of the force tc
detect and bring to Justice gamblers as
well as thieves and thugs of every
description. alderman Arrowsmith,
doubtless spoke the truth, when he said
at the conclusion of his recent term OF
Office as an Alderman, portion of which
included the Craftsmanship of the Police
Committee, "What the Police Force OF
Morristown needs is a thorough re-organ-
ization. | know it and speak from per-
sonal observation" II a shaking up
was needed a year ago, viewed in the
light of recent events, how much more is
it necessary to-day.

improvements along Rockaway Valley and
Speedwell Lake r. R.-Park Assocait,n.
The Rockaway Valley Railroad has
now decided to extend its passenger
service on May LIST. A new engine and
passenger coaches have recently been
procured and the passenger department
will be steadily pushed. From the time
stated three trains will arrive in Norris
town daily over this road; viz. 7:S0 and
1920 a. M, and $3.50 p. M; leaving Nor
ristown at 9 and 10 a. m, and 5:25 p. m.
The Speedwell Lake Railroad Com
pany has acquired the Speedwell Iron
Works property and lands of Byron
Sherman. Commissioners last week
awarded 81 900 for the Lord Nichols
property, the owners asking $4,000. The
owners will doubtless appeal from this
award and this may cause delay in the
completion of the road. This week the
same commissioner meets on the Cross
property, for which the owners ask
$4,000. A proposition for settlement at
SIS 900 has already been refused. If no
appeals are taken the work on the road
will proceed Immediately, and the cars
will be soon running inside the city
limits.
Another important improvement
planned for this vicinity is the location
of a temperance pleasure park on the
shores of Speedwell Lake, with view
to securing the picnic patronage of the
country round. To this end the Speed
well Park Association has been organ
lied. All kinds of sports will be con-

TRUE WEATHER PROPHETS.

Three sundogs low down on the horl-
zon on Monday afternoon caused con-
siderable comment and when the double
halo appeared about the moon early in
the evening the streets were filled with
people discussing the singular pheno-
mena, which were caused it is said by
refraction through fine ice crystals sus-
pended in the air. Storm signals were
ordered to be displayed along the coast,
so that everybody was forewarned of the
storm that came the day following. The
artist of the New York Sun caught the
moon in its double halo circles which
we present to our readers through the
courtesy of that journal.
The moon, which is nearly full was
about two-thirds of the way to the zenith
in the southeastern sky when the halos
appeared. There were two of them. in
tersecting each other, as shown in the
picture. The upper circle seemed
to lie almost horizontal in the
upper air, while the other ran
down far toward the horizon. The circles
were of nearly the same size, the diam
eter of each great enough to span more t
About a quadrant of each circumfere
At the intersecting points there were blt
