FATHER ACCUSED BOY.
Says Son Who w ounded Brother Is
Thoroughly Bad.

Otto May, thirteen years old, of No go
Willow avenue, Hoboken, was arraigned
yesterday before Recorder Stanton charg-
ed with feloniously assaulting his brother,
George, eleven years old. His father, who
was in court, said:-
'He is thoroughly bad boy, and /
had to send him to a Juvenile asylum in
New York, where he was committed as
an incorrigible. He remained in that in
stitution two years. and took him out
because he had promised to behave him
self in future Since his release there has
been no improvement noticeable. On one
occasion he attempted to kill his mother
with knife, and has repeatedly attack
ed and beaten me. I am afraid if he is
not sent to some institution where he
can be kept under restraint he will do
something which I do not care to con-
template"
While the father was speaking the boy
stood at the rail with a sneer on his face
He did not say word, but occasionally
darted wicked glances at his father The
Recorder sent him back to a cell. and
eventually he will be sent to a Reform

ALL WANT THE SHELTER.
Agitation for an Awning at the
Junction Renewed.

The agitation for an awning at the
Junction to protect passengers transfer
ring at that point was renewed a few days
ago. The hot weather combined with the
rain of the past week has given fresh inn
petus to the movement Those behind the
scheme were more in earnest.
There are several points on which those
interested disagree. The lessee, John
Kaiser wants lights placed under the
awnings Vice President David Young,
of the Traction Company, refuses to grant
any such concession.
Mrs Hudspeth-Benson who has been
the prime mover for the erection of a
shelter for passengers has been i'll for
some time and for that reason the agita-
ton rested until several days ago. She
intends to go to work again on the mat
ter and feels sure that success will meet
her efforts The Traction Company is de-
sirous of purchasing that corner. The
owner, Daniel Y. Lewis, will SELL but the
lessee wants big price for the remain
ing four years of his lease. 1t is hardly
likely that waiting room will be built
on that property until the saloonkeeper's S
lease expires.

JEWISH cHAUTAUQUA.
Papers Read at Atlantic City by
Rabbis.
Especial to .aThe Jersey city News"l

Especial to 'The Jersey City News.1
ATLANTIC CITY, July 1S, 19O1-The
principal paper read before the Jewish
Chautauqua yestef day was by Rev. DR..
NJ H. Harris. who continued his dis
course on the Jews in the sixteenth CEN
tury, the era of Europe's Literary and re-
Igious awakening. His principal scenes
were laid in Poland, with the Jews, and
he took a side glace at Unitarianism.
After telling how the centre of gravity OF
the Jews had shifted to Poland-a second
Bablonia-they were let alone, and So
cially were assimilating neither with
the nobility nor the peasantry. They
were the middle class. and an independ-
ent State within State.
He said that a creditors demand of a
portion of his clients body in payment of
a debt was first an Imaginative creation
in the service of romance. 1t was a popu-
lar theme for poetry and fiction. 1t later
seized upon a Jew as the most likely type
of such repellent character. There has
always been, the speaker said. in the
church, from the earliest days, small
group that never accepted the divinity
! Of Jesus or the doctrine of the Trinity.
These advanced schools were never popu-
lar. Ine u11lerence p6lWSeH IuouSIh
judaism and modern Unitarianism is es-
sential. Historically, sympathetically and
ceremonially the Unitarian is closer to
the Orthodox Christian than to the Re-
form Jew.
Professor Margolis, of California, con-
tinued his paper on the Book of Job, his
principal point being a translation of the
sentence: 81 know that my Redeemer
liveth," to his idea of it that 81 know that
my Avenger liveth," meaning by this that
his .Redeemer was really the avenger of
his sins.
I Rabbi Charles Levi, of Peoria, ILL.,, last
night delivered an excellent discourse in
the synagogue, saying, among other
things, that enlightenment and religion
go hand-in-hand. Faith and reason,
mind and heart are developed the greatest
in the truly educated. Education is the
open sesame for the conquest of the
world in art, science, industry, morality
and religion. The highest treasure of civ
ilization is the spiritual. Judaism has
gained it's position in the forefront of civ
| ilization be cause of its exclusive atten-
ton to the spreadof the highest truths in
the form of morality and religion.

Frugal Diet of Henry Irving.

Sir Henry Irving is exceedingly fond of
eggs
in my pound-a-week days" said he,
sthere were often times when 1 had to
choose between the needs of the outer and
of the inner man. One such period was
when 1 was assigned part that called
for a pair of trousers of new and ex-
pensive pattern. Nothing in my scanty
wardrobe would answer; credit didn't
have, and my fellow actors couldn't help
me. 1 sat down and carefully figured out
the situation. After much thought
fount that, by dint of the closest econ
omy, including partial starvation, I could
buy the needed garment in three weeks
time This would answer my purpose, if
1 did not die of inanition in the interval.
With the aid of more figures, l found
that a diet of eggs and bread was the
cheapest, and, presumably, the most nour-
distinguishing. But could afford only one
egg a day
II bought weeks supply, divided each
egg with longitudinal pencil line, and
ate down to the line at breakfast and
below it at dinner. I survived got my
trousers, made more or less of a hit, and
from about that period began a. more or
less popular career. Do you wonder,
then, that feel so kindly toward the
egg, which stood me in such good stead
at that critical juncture?

HUNT FOR GREEN GOODS GANG

Especial to ''The Jersey City News."1
NEWARK, July 13, d9O1.-It is hoped by
the authorities that other arrests will
follow that of F. A. Barlow, alias Joseph
Hoffman, prisoner in the Essex county
jail under $1,000 bonds for examination on
July % as a green goods operator. Bar
low was arrested yesterday in the City
Hotel in Plainfield. The complaint was
made by Warren w. Dickson, post office
inspector from Philadelphia.
Barlow was decoyed into a trap by five
post office inspectors. one of whom repre-
sented himself as s'come-on." Plainfield,
it is said, has been rendezvous for the
green goods men and their victims and the
inspectors are on the trail of several
sharpers who have operated there. Ac-
cording to the men in the employ of the

TO TEST VOORHEES, LAW.
Atlantic City Liquor Men Think
1t UnconstitutionaI.

1t is said that the proprietors of the
leading hotels in Atlantic City have de-
termined to test the constitutionality of
the act under which Justice Hendrickson
ordered the sale of Sunday refreshments
discontinued. The proprietors have taken
legal advice and have been told that the
Voorhees, act of last winter, which was
aimed especially at Monmouth county,
cannot be sustained, because it violates
one of the most positive provisions of the
State Constitution in that it gives to the
judiciary the functions and powers of the
executive branch of the government,
which is expressly prohibited.
Governor VOORHEES,, when seen yester-
day, expressed surprise that the act had
been attacked, but said he was confident
it would pass muster. The contention
that the powers of the different branches
of the government were transferred he
asserted was absurd.
