That Were Rendered
Homeless by Recent Fire Gather
in Temporary Meeting Places.

PATERSON. n. j., Feb. 16.-In all the
churches of the city today special men
tion was made of the fire and its conse-
quences, especially as related to the
houses of worship which were DESTROYED.
The congregations Of churches that were
burned turned out in unusually large
numbers to the new places of worship
which they had temporarily secured.
The Second Presbyterian Church wor-
SHIPPED today in the Barnett Memorial
Temple, Rabbi lsaacs casting aside all ira
ditions and prejudices and opening the
Jewish synagogue to Christian congre-
cation.
Oner of Relief Refused.
The temple was crowded to the doors
this morning by the Christians The Rev.
DR.. Shaw read d number of letters of
sympathy and offering assistance He said
he had received check for 500 from
Jersey City Presbyterian church, which he
had returned, as he wanted TO act in har-
mony with the attitude taken by the city
authorities in refusing all outside assist
ance.
In his sermon he said there were three
lessons to be drawn from the fire. The
first was that Paterson would rise
greater and a better city, and he in
stanced the great fires OF London, Chi
cago. and Boston, which had proved to
be OF great ana lasting benefit TO those
cities.
The Second Lesson.
Tho Second was the eood -heu ri adnass
shown by the people of Paterson under
the calamity. He commended the spirit
of the city authorities in refusing assist
ance from outside, thus maintaining the
independence that was characteristic of
Paterson, but he thought even more of
the spirit OF the people who had SO nobly
made good this action of the authorities
by giving generously of their own to the
relief of the sufferers.
The third lesson was the drawing to,
