IN NEED OF FUNDS.
Thirty THOUSAND Dollars Required By ths y NJ.
C.Aio kest lis Obligations.

II may not be a matter Of general
knowledge that the building Of the Y.
NJ. C. A.. at the corner OF Westmins-
ter and Jackson streets, has Upon it a
mortgage which so hampers the work OF
the association that year by year the
deficit has increased until now the as
sociation may be Obliged 10 close its
doors from lack of funds TO carry on
the good work which is now being ac-
complished.
While several persons have contribu-
ted each year for the benefit OF the as
sociation, the interest has not been gen.
eral enough TO allow the officers TO
make both ends meet, SO that with the
debt that has been carried for some
years the association is i'm severe
financial straits, and the future Of the
Y. NJ. G.. A.. i'm this city is far from
bright. The executive committee is
making every effort 10 raise the 500,
600 needed by May to keep the doors
open.
The association Is not a charity, but
a philanthropy. Its work is quite dis
tinct from that Of any Of the churches
and while religious In its foundation, IL
is entirely non-sectarian. and welcomes
all alike. 1t seeks TO benefit young
men and boys, but to carry its work
must now have help.

Mr.. 6URDlCK'S CHARGE.
Says Rice Secured Receipt In Full Without PAIRING
Board, and Tha, $40 disappeared.

Mr.. Il. Burdick, who conducts a
boarding house at No. 1l0 South Main
street, made a complaint TO Lieut. Hor-
ton at the Central police station last
evening concerning a man who gave
his name as B. w. Rice, the substance
OF which was that Rice had failed to
pay his board bill. yet received a re-
ceipt for the same. and also is thought
to have departed with $40 OF Mr.. Bur-
dicks money.
Last Saturday night Rice went to
Mrs. Burdick and said that he was
ready to pay his board, amounting to
$3.50. asking her 10 give him receipt
In full, he having paid one week s
board prior TO this. She made out the
receipt as desired and handed 1t 10 him.
She held out one hand for the 5000
but IL wasn't forthcoming. Rice said
he would not pay a full weeks board,
because he had missed one breakfast.
He denied the statement that he had
slept too late for breakfast on the
morning. in question, and stalked out
of the room Win the receipt. Previous
to his coming in two other boarders
had settled for the week at the rate OF
s. each. and Mrs. Burdick had laid the
$40 on table behind her chair
After Rice han left the room, Mrs.
Burdick found that the so was miss
ing, but by tn.s time Rice had removed
his trunk from the house and had
withdrawn himself. Lieut.. Horton re-
marked that il would be hard ~ prove
that Rice took this money-ani since he
had receipt. there would be no use in
bringing civil suit against him in
case he could be found.

The Quay trial added one more TO
the many illustrations of the liberation
the law has for what may be q serious
public offense. In Pennsylvania the
Treasury funds have long been a part
OF the spolls OF political victory, not
the use Of the funds for keeps" o-
course but the right to borrow them
and turn them at will and without in
terest. OF course SO far as Quay is con-
cerned the main object OF bringing the
case against him was TO destroy his po-
litical power. The district attorney
who prosecuted the Senator was not
party TO this political conspiracy, but
that the case was initiated more for
the purpose of defeating Quay for the
Scnatorship than for serving the ends
OF public Justice was made very clear

How 10 make a church pay was tho
topic of a symposium of interviews I'm
the Sun of Sunday, which was prompt
ed by the experience OF q Presbyterian
church i'm New York which. while its
membership is notably rich. is never
theless i'm debt In a word 1t doesn't
pay" Here in Providence, recently. we
have had several sermons based on the
text of how to induce more people To
attend church. which problem has OF
course a direct relationship TO the ques-
tion OF making a church pay" Rev,
Dr. Savage. who has been conspicuous
among ministers who make their
churches pay" was OF the opinion that
the minister himself offered the key
note 20 the whole problem and whno
many other explanations were advanced
and are often discussed the popular de-
cision would undoubtedly be that tho
minister has more TO do with the sue.
cess OF church than anything else
about It's organization. Mr. Savage ex.
pressed the view that if the Lord really
called a man 10 preach he would can
somebody 10 hear him. And or he didn't
draw that would be very strong indi-
cation that his view OF his calling was
a mistaken one and hc would better
consider going into some otncr pro.
fcsslon.

The interesting point about the result
of this famous trial Is that gross public
evil has existed openly In Pennsylvania
and that the law has no power TO check
It. Political leaders simply came in con-
troll OF the Treasury upon acquiring tho
state government and the deals that
were carried out between them and the
banks that were bidders for the fat
plum of the state deposit seem 10 have
been notorious. Not until couple OF
years ago did the legislature pass law
demanding that the profits from the
funds OF the <ich state OF Pennsylva-
MIA should inure in the state. But that
any such business as is thus indicated
was not a crime the court has decided
after n remarkably able presentation OF
the case and Senator Quay is vindi-
Gated. 1t is safe TO say. however thar
Pennsylvania politics will be no worse
for the airing that has been given them
and IL is a question whether. in down.
ing his immediate enemies, Senator
Quay. except temporarily has stemmed
the tide of political sentiment which
seems to have been rising against him
pretty steadily the past few years.
