GIRL USHERS AT CHURCH

IFrom the New York Journal
The church social committee of the
Fewsmith Memorial church of Newark,
was requested to devise means for in
cregaasing the Sunday evening attendance.
They have devised. The Sunday evening
attendance has greatly increased.
The FeWSmtth Memorial church has
three of the prettiest girls of the congre-
cation for ushers.
The young men of Newark were found
to be drifting away from religious services
on Sunday evenings. Instead many of
them made social calls. For this, of course
the young women of Newark were some
what responsible. 1t looked, rather gloomy
for the FeWsmith church until the So
cial committee began to think over the
question
But after the committee had decided
upon the innovation they tried it with
much apprehension.
Miss Maud Hawley and Miss Cora Dali
rymple, two charming young persons
were selected for the duty three weeks
ago.
The congregation voted the experiment
an unqualified success.
The fact was spread abroad. Tie Young
men of Newark have f1ocked to The church
the last two Sundays.
The increase in the attendance has been
so great that last week it was decided to
add an usher Miss LOttie Tom kins. an
other graceful member of the congrega-
ton, was chosen.
Fewsmith Memorial church is entering
a new era of Well-dOing.

saur Kraut Famine.

TSt. Louis Cor. New York SUM-
A sauerkraut famine is threatened in
this city. What such a famine means
is not understood by those who are not
aware that sauerkraut is the great pop
ular dish of St. Louis, and occupies the
place taken by beans in Boston. 1t is
estimated that more sauerkraut is con-
sumed here than in Chicago, which has
twice the population of this city. Mis-
souri, soil is said to be specially adapt
ed to cabbage growing, and as there are
many Germans in this city the cOnsun-
nation of cauerkraut follows naturally.
The Germans have pOpularized Sauer-
kraut among their American friends
until a St. Louis house without sauer-
kraut is like home without a mother.
There were heavy frOsts at the begin
ming of the season, which killed many
plants, and consequently the cabbage
crop was light. When the sauerkraut
makers came into market this fall for
their raw material they discovered this
state of things. Prices went up at a
jump. Cabbages sold by the ton a year
ago at from Sc to IS. Now they bring
SIS and SIS a ton by the carload and
are hard to get at that.
N1arketmen say that this means a bO-
nanza for southern truck gardeners,
particularly those of Florida, who will
begin planting cabbage next month. By
the time it is ready for market it is ex-
pected that the price viii be enormous.

When the train bearing the party
reached the outskirts of the city every
engine in the city blew a shril blast,
and all the bells added TIC the clang.
The streets were packed with people.
A Gordon of military under command
of Col. T. O. Smith, former major of the

Rhinoceros Danced

philadelphia Cor. New York SUM-
An Italian organ grinder was nearly
scared out of his wits this evening and
half hundred people fed with terror
from an inoffensive rhinoceros which
escaped while being unIoaded from a
Pennsylvania railroad car The beast
was sent here for the Geological Gar
den and arrived in good health and
spirits. Twenty employees of the ex-
press company stood about to prevent
it getting away, but when the animal
started all fed down Seventeenth
street. The rhinoceros went to Market.
the men after her; thence to Sixteenth
and back to Hilbert. In the short jour
ney it passed probably 100 people and
put all in flight. An italian grinding
out a merry tune on his organ got a
shock that almost killed him.
The beast has been with a circus and
can dance and do a cake walk At Six
teenth and Hilbert streets it heard the
sound of the music and began to dance.
The Italian did not know what brought
the crowd, but he kept on turning his
crank until suddenly there was a roar
of laughter, and he turned to find the
beast standing still, sOlemnly looking
at him. Emitting a terrific yell he
dropped the crank and ran. The animal
was caught and put back in the cage
with little difficulty
