OF THE ENTERTAINMENT

On Wednesday evening, May 3, the
ladies of st. Peters Parish will give a
grand progressive euchre and reception
in st. Peters new hall, on York street,
for the benefit of the two new buildings,
which were recently erected through the
efforts of the Rev. Fathers Harpes and
Harlin. Already two meeting of the
ladies have taken place in the new rooms
and they say that they have met with
great assistance from everyone to whom
they have appealed The meetings were
in charge of Mrs. Charles J. SomerS,
chairman, and Miss May Sheridan, Sec
rotary. There will be seventy-fve prizes
to be awarded and all will be very valu-
able. An orchestra of fully twenty pieces
will furnish special music and there will
be no expense spared to make the event
one of the finest ever held in the lower
section of the city.
ST. Peters new hall is a very spacious
one and will seat on the main floor more
han 800 euchre players. The different
committees appointed at the last meeting
are now working hard and they report
having made goo progress. The last
meeting will be held in the new hall or
Monday evening, April "a, when all ar
rangements will be completed and re-
ports received from the committees.
The ladies gave a euchre last June ir
st. Peters College Hall, and it was
marked as one of the best events ever
held in the lower section of the city, fully
six hundred people attending. The prizes
on that occasion were elaborate and were
greatly remarked. The ladies now know
they have a much larger place to hold
their euchre and the prize list has beer
greatly increased in expectation of a big
attendance.
The decorations of the hall on this
occasion will be the finest that can be
found. A list of the ladies who have
charge of the euchre and the different
committees will be published in The
News" in a few days. The rector, Rev
Father. Harpes, and the Rev. Father
Harlin are assisting the ladies, and tbs
entertainment bids fair to be one of the
most successful events yet held in St

Gerhardt Temple, a Hoboken longshore-
man, met with a fatal accident while at
work on the North German Lloyd liner

ward hatch of the vessel. The rain had
made the deck slippery, and in reaching
for a hawser, Lempke missed his footing
and went crashing into h hold. He
struck the bottom head foremost. Death
was instantaneous. Coroner Charles
Hoffman, took charge of the remains.
Lempke leaves a widow and two small
children. The accident occurred in view
of his home, at No. 22S River street. Mrs.
Lempke was seated at the front window
watching her husband at work. She ut
tered a shrek when she saw him fall and
tainted. When word of his death reached
home she was In mysteries. The family is
in poor circumstances.

rooms and becoming members.
AS an evidence OF interest in the re-
ligious work Of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association, the Tuesday evening
Bible class. conducted by the General Sec
rotary, has been the scene of unusual In
terest of late. The Bible class room has
been overcrowded with young men from
all over the city, representing. many
churches. Last Tuesday evening many
new men were present and some excellent
new thoughts of a practical character
were brought out in the discussion rela-
tive to the Conversion OF Saul" Next
Tuesday evening the third lesson in the
present series bearing on the Conversion
of the Apostle will be taken up. At the
present increase Of members this Bible
class will soon be one of the largest of
its kind in the State of New Jersey.
The new Junior Department continues
to make steady and satisfactory progress.
The boys are becoming more and more
interested and the Instructions which
they are receiving through the gymna-
stun and other departments has been the
means of bringing man. new boys to the
association. Probably no work that Z.
M. c.. A. has undertaken in years has
proven more fruitful and given more
satisfaction than opening up a Junior De-
partment.
h meeting of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association tomorrow afternoon, in
Hasbrouck Institute, will be addressed by
the Rev. John A. Brown Of Williams
town, N. j., on the subject, "Quit You
Like Men" The speaker is a man known
for his %eloquence and power and every
young man in Jersey City should attend
this meeting, as many practical sugges-
lions will be given. Good music, as al
ways, will be one of the features of this
meeting.

Chinook Winds Defined.

The Chinook winds" is so great
a puzzle to many newcomers in the
Pacific Northwest that the Portland
Oregonian feels called upon to de-
fine it again. In the early history
of Oregon, it says, there was tribe
of Indians known as Chinooks, on
the Lower Columbia. and a point or
head land there known as Chinook
Point.
A warm wind used to blow at
times in the winter from the region
inhabited by the Chinooks' SO it
came to be called q chinook wind.
OF course, the Chinooks did not
originate the wind, and of course it
blew in many other places through
out the Northwest: but as in those
days this region was largely unset
tied by white, and as there were nc
wealth er bureaus very little was
known or heard of this warm wind,
except that it occasionally blew oyer
or from the coutry of the Chinooks
and thus received its name, which
has followed the settlement of the
Northwest.

Ten Beaus for Every Girl in
Idaho. !


With the bachelors outnumb err
ing the maids in every State in the
Union it ought to be easy for un
married woman to secure a partner
anywhere, but the region where
bachelors are most in excess is, OF
course, the most favorable to the
spinster, since the abundance of UNI
married men gives her wider
range of choise. From matrim-
onial point of view Idaho is the best
State Of the Union, for there the
number of the bachelors is to that
of the maids as 1854 to 1926, each
unmarried woman in Idaho, there
fore, having ten or eleven bachelors,
not exactly at her beck, but avail
able as husband. From most
points of view the West is the Mecca
of the young unmarried woman, for
not only are there more unmarried
men in the Western States, but a
living is more easily made in the
West than in the East, and there
fore the We stern men are more adj
dicted to matrimony.-PRoFEssoR
