a New Jersey Rector Objects tn
Their Uncovered Heads
NE" YORK, Aug. 6.-The women with
their head covering consisting onIv of
GROWING glory in the congregation of
Christ Episcopal Church, of Hackensack,
the prominent church of the town. are up
in arms against their rector the Rev. DR..
W W. HoIIey. who for twenty-seyen years
has led his flock with earnest piety and
conservatism.
Yesterday morning he suddenly cut his
sermon short and announced he had a few
remarks to make touching customs and
fads among the members of his congrega-
ton He opened the Holy Book and in
troduced his subject with these Gospel quo
tations:
Every woman that prayeth or prophe-
seth with her head uncovered dishon-
orch her head For that is even. all one
II she were shayen.
For if the woman be not covered let
her also be shorn; that if it be a shame
for woman TO be shaven or shorn, let
her be covered"
The reverend doctor paused after the
reading and glanced about the church.
The women did also Fully score of them
were uncovered. The theatre crusade has
reached New Jersey towns, and women in
Hackensack have not been slow TO act.
They have attended church and removed
their hats so long that 1t has become a
custom among them as among men.
Il am opposed to the habit among the
women of my congregation attending SER
vices here without hats. / am well aware
that it is a fad in the country and at sum-
mer resorts to go about bareheaded and
10 remove hats when at church or in the
THEATRE, the minister said
Il am opposed to the fad entering my
church. In my judgment it is wrong and
beg of the women members of our con-
gregation to heed the Gospel as st. Paul
has written it,
He stopped as abruptly as he had be-
gun, and shortly afterward several of the

Philadelphia Chinatown Witnesses
the Worship of Aneestors.u
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. Both Chris
tians and heather conducted religious ex-
ereises OF an unusual nature in Philadel-
phia's Chinatown yesterday Dr. Lee
Chack Hoy, the New York evangelist, in
terpreted the teachings of Christianity in
two outdoor addresses in Cantonese The
disciples of Confucius- offered up their
semi annual sacrifice, known as the "wor-
ship Of the ancestors" which was follow
ed by Chinese funeral. There were many
curiosity-see along Race Street to aug
ment the crowd that habitualIy surges TO
and fro between Ninth and Tenth streets
OF a Sunday afternoon.
Mounted upon table, Dr. Lee, who has
been fifteen years in mission work, spoke in
rapid and earnest tones to the crowd gath
cred in the street. After reading from the
Gospel of St John he proceeded to compare
the Christian mode of worship with the
older forms to which his hearers had been
accus toned.
They are so different" he said, that
We cannot wonder when We hear many
OF our people say they can see no merit in
the new ways. But if you wish to know
their worth come and see for yourselves.
You worship by meat and wine and in
cense; we with pure and true conscience.
Our offering for sin is the crucified Saviour
and the prayer to which We pin our faith
owes its worth TO the clean mind aad the
pure heart within. 1t is my faith in the
Christian teachings over all others which
has led me TO take valuable time away
from the practice of medieine among my
people and to come TO Philadelphia at my
own expense to speak to you today"
DR.. Lee made another OPEN air address
at O'Clock last evening. following serv :
ices at the Chinese Mission. Etev Fred
erick Poole presided at all of the meetings.
Prayer was offered by members of the mis-
sion and gospel hymns were sung by a
choir
Following the 'fWorshoes5H the Anees-
tors" at which large q.sz41JIties of meat
were offered at the graves of the dead,
there was the burial of Tuoo Why, who
died on Friday at the, Jefferson Hospital.
From 926 Race Street the body was borne
to the cemetery On Passyunk Avenue fol-
lowed by a procession composed of the rel
atives and friends of the dead. Bits of pa
per, representing money, used to appease
evil spirits, were strewn along the way
BY the open grave were placed two chick
ems and two bowls OF rice. Over these
there was poured a. quantity of wine and
the whole was set ON fire, each mourner
joining in the burning of incense.

important work of connecting
Idaho's capitol with points east

be commenced at once on the
eastern extension. There is suffi-
cient material on hand to build
to Mountainhome and the line
will be extended that far before
real bad weather sets in and as
much farther as possible.
The line will not follow the
Short Line. The route to some
connection with the Salt Lake
Butte line will be almost as
straight as the crow flies. Under
the present plan there will be
two branches from this main
line, which will skirt the foot

with the north and south line
One branch will be run to Noun

Princeton, N. j., Oct. %
Grover Cleveland, former presi-
dent, in an interview today for
the Philadelphia Times, predict
ed a landslide to William J.
Bryan, the Democratic candidate
for president.
He advanced several reasons
for this. For an hour the Demo
cratic statesman fought shy of
any reference to the political
situation. He urged that he no
no longer takes any active inter
est in politics and is content to
quietly look on. Then the. con-
versation turned to the condi-
tions in the west, and after a lit
tie reminiscent talk Mr.. Cleve-
land said
Young man, you will see a
landslide to Bryan the morning
after election. Of this ! am con-
fident."
To this the Times man replied
that the indications, according to
Republican leaders, are favor
able to Mckinley.
Mr.. Cleveland quickly retort-
ed
"Of course they are. That is
policy. What I tell you is my
private opinion.
The Times correspondent has
no doubt concerning the former
presidents sincerity in his ex-
pressed belief, and when he ask
ed Mr.. Cleveland what reasons
he had for SO thinking, he con-
tinued
"You do not understand the
conditions. There are elements
all over the country at work
which it would be impossible to
draw into line for Mckinley.
I'm the first place, union labor
is for Bryan. OF course this or
ganization of labor has been a
factor in politics and it certainly
is not favorable to the interests
of capital.
1.-The travelling men are for
Bryan. These men, who are a
small army, are of the opinion
that the Republican party is the
protector of corporations, and by
the amalgamation of the indus
trial interests many of them have
been thrown out of employment
I'm the northwest, in Mime
sofa, in Dakota and Iowa, there
are many Hollanders. Sympathy
for the Beers, who are their owr
flesh and blood, will induce then
