Flynn was celebrated by the teachers
and scholars of the Bayley Grammar
School on Tuesday. 1t was a surprise
to the Dean, he having no thought,
when he walked into the schoolroom
in the morning, that such an enjoyable
time was to be had in his honor. The
scholars congratulated him, sang songs
and recited and the different grades
presented him with a gift. After a

Governor Voorhees, this week lnau-
gurated a raid on the gambling re.
sorts which operate extensively at the
sea shore resorts, particularly at Long
Branch. In a special message to the
Legislature he expressed himself force
ably oa the SUBJECT, saying in part;
at is notorious fact that in GER
tain localities in this State officers
authorized to enforce the laws in this
regard do not perform their duty In
some places SO fragrant and continu-
Gus are the violations Of the Consti-
tuition and criminal laws of the State
that the Judges of our, courts have
repeatedly called the attention Of the
Grand Juries to the same. They have
been unable to suppress the practices
and have declared that their failure
was due entirely to the supineness,
or worse, of the local authorities. \ 1t u
"The continuance of these gambling
practices is u menace to public and
private morals and the suppression
thereof is of vital Importance to the
State All means must be employed
by those in authority to uphold the
courts in suppressing this evil and
in maintaining law.
The governor also sert a bill, intro
duced in the House by Leader Lewis
which provides that whenever the
Mayor, Chief of Police or other head
officer of police in any municipality
shall be personally notified in writing
by the Governor, Attorney General,
Justice of the Supreme Court, County
Judge or Prosecutor of any country
in which the municipality is situated,
of rumors of violation of any Grimm
al statute BY any persons occupy ing
or carrying on business in improper
places or manner. such official must
at once take steps to enforce the law,
and if they refuse to act within ten
days they shall be guilty of misde-
meanor.

chell of the United Mine Workers has
received no answers to his invitation
to the coal operators to a conference
upon the issues involved in the Ha-

WORTHY CHARITY
Continued from First Page.

Express for furnishing their papers
free and to the many others who have
contributed reading matter. We are
very glad to report new and syste
matte plan for increasing the useful
ness of the Girls reading room
about to go into effect under the
leadership of Miss Ada Woven, who
will be assisted by an advisory COM
mittee of ladies representing almost
all the churches in town and efforts
are being made to reach larger num-
Der of girls. Glasses will be organized
in nursing, physical culture and other
branches as may be found advisable.
A library of suitable and attractive
books is greatly needed in connection
with this department and contribu-
tions of good books are earnestly
solicited.
For the two or three hot month
in the year the two ice water foun
tains-one at the Mission, the other
on Speedwell avenne-are the mos
effective promoters of temperance i'll
town. The ice for the Market street
fountain was contributed as in past
years by the Shelley Hygiene Ice
Company and that for the fountain'on
Speedwell avenue by the Pocono Ice
Company.
Meals, Lodgings &c.
During the year. but 21 meals were
given free and 7, 339 meals were earn
ed, either by cutting wood or doing
some other work about the Mission
building. And in the matter of LODI
gings, ten were given free and 2,541
were earned. $60S.S1 was paid for
labor i'll cash ana orders-permanent
employment found for IL.
The entire cost of the meals and
lodgings and the amount spent for
labor have been covered by the
receipts from the sale of wood.
Clothing was furnished to l47 persons
gifts of clothing are always most ac-
ceptable. At present children S cloth
ing is especially in demand
These figures must prove, If proof
were wanting, the great Importance of
the Industrial Department.
And now, having given these sta
tistics, the secretary must briefly
refer to an event which will make
this year of 1900-1901 a memorable one
in the history of the Mission-the
beautiful gift from warm friend of
the Mission, who proposes and is soon
to carry into effect, the erection of a
three-s story building on the lot ad-
joining the Mission, to be added to
the present structure The Superin-
tendent will speak at greater length
of this generous gift and of the great
addition to our usefulness it will
afford. For such an offering of love,
our thanks are but poor return--the
true reward is found in the Master S
words: 'Inasmcuh as We have done it
unto one of the least of these, my
brethren, ye have done it unto me. "
To mark their appreciation of this
needed gift, the members of the Mis-
sion Committee earnestly desire to
signalize the beginning of the new CEN
fury by lifting the mortgage now rest
ing on the building and an effort is
now being made to secure by large or
small contributions, the amount need
ed to free us from debt.
Hitherto hath the Lord helped us
We are emboldened to hope and ex-
pect much in the future, because of
the blessings of the past twelve years,

Secretary.

THE PRESIDENT FAVO7S PAN
AMERICAN.

President Mckinley has always kept
in close touch with the growing in
terests of the people. He favored the
Pan-American Exposition from the
first and so important did he consider
it that in his annual message to Con-
gress in 1900, he said:
THE Exposition of the resources
and products of the Western Henri
sphere to be held at Buffalo next year
promises important results not only
to the United States but for the other
participating countries. 1t is graft
flying that the Latin American States
have evinced the liveliest interest.
The work of preparing an exhibit of
our national resources is making sat
isfactory progress under the direction
of different officials of the Federal
Government, and the various States
of the Union have shown disposition
toward the most liberal participation
in the enterprise. -

The Leader from Sharon, Pa, says
that the Sharon Steel company will
erect complete pipe and skelp mills at
South Sharon to cost at least 1900
900. The new mill will have a capacity
of 400 tons of basic steel tubes of all
kinds. Pipes will be made in one de-
partment up to six inches. The com
pany has also decided to engage in the
manufacture of boiler tubing on a
large scale. The skelp mill will have
a daily capacity of between 800 and
600 tons. The capacity of the Shar-
on Steel Hoop mill will also be dou-
bled so that instead of an investment
of $5,000,000 in the great chain of
South Sharon industries it is believed
that the capital will be twice that
amount,

lists, Messrs. Babbitt and Owens; the pi-
anist, 9Th. Wilson; the fife and drum
corps, consisting of Messrs. George
Green, Joseph Kronenberg and Fred
Voorhees,; and Reub Savage, who-well
he went along to keep the boys cour-
age up.
The outgoing trip was made in safety,
and at the entertainment the bows did
full justice to DR.. Thompson's capable
instruction and received his approving
smile.

Wand drill.
Selection-Fife and Drum Corps.
Vocal duet-George Rabbit and Harry
Owens.
Parallel bar drill

did full justice to the good things so
abundantly provided.
On the return trip two were missing
from the load due it is rumored to the
bewitching smiles of the Bernardsville
maidens. But they are home at last,
and are now declaring that the distance
to Morristown when walking is much
farther than the map would seem to in
dictate.

END OF SIDING CRISIS.
British and Russians Withdraw
Guards


Picking, March 22.--Count Won Wal
dersee, General Barrow and Gen
eral Wogack have been in consultation
and General Wogack has agreed tc
withdraw the Russian troops from the
disputed ground at Tien-tsin provided
the British also withdraw. He insist
ed also upon a guarantee that work
ON the railway siding should not pro
coed until the matter had been diplo
matically adjusted. This proposal and
stipulation Were satisfactory to Gen.
eral Barrow and We're accepted by him
Consequently the British and Rus.
sian troops will be withdrawn at {
O'Clock this morning.
Orders have been issued, however,
that no British officer shall be given
leave or even "sleep OUT at night OIL
go to dinner without furnishing his ad-
dress to the adjutant of his regiment.
The marines will return to the ships.
Admiral Seymour objects to any of the
Australian naval brigade who volun.
tered for service on the railway re.
manning. The military authorities say
he does not understand the situation,
that his interference is uncalled for,
and that the Australian marines are
just the men needed.
The Russians have ordered regi-
ment to proceed from Port Arthur to
Tien-tsin.
The arrangements made by General
Bailloud, the French commander, are
regarded as completely satisfactory,
and all danger of a collision between
the British and French is considered
obviatod

from practically all of the South and
Central American republics accepting
the invitation to participate in the
conference of American republics
which is to be held in the City of
Mexico next October In addition to
discussing the question of arbitration
it is expected that the congress will
deal with commercial affairs of inter

cooperation and mutual expansion
of trade. To some extent also the ga
thering will have a broad political
aspect, indicating the fraternity which
exists among the republics of the
