People are beginning to ask when is
St. Mary's church fair going to open ?
A great many were under the impress
sion that the barrel of candy for
which the children were competing
was to be a contest in a fair, but
others understood it a means for rails
ing money for the chalice competition
between New Brunswick. Perth Am
boy and South Amboy, and that the
child raising the most money on the
cards, at five cents q clip, would re-
ceive q miniature barrel of candy.
Those who helped the children are
anxious to know who received the
barrel OF candy, if there is no prospect
of q fair to decide it.

services, in this city and nearby towns.
Many other Protestant pulpits were occu-

While Monday, May, 80. is the date set
for final adjournment of the conference it
is believed that practically all the i'm
portant business will have been completed
before the end of the present week.
Two subjects probably will cause a
spirited debate during the next few days,
namely. the amusement question and the
relations of capital and labor. The latter
was made the subject of a special report
from the judiciary committee last week, in
which vigorous denunciation was made OF
the greed of corporations and their in
difference to the welfare of their en-
ployes."

and IL made the special order for Tues
