a dark corner there and she wouldn't annoy
respectable people" remarked his Honor.

Let her 90 to work. That part Of Fourteenth
street is very busy at midnight when l ar
rested her. Besides, clergymen lave been
90 mplaining to the captain about these
women
What clergyman complained about this
W oman?' the Court inquired.
The policeman leaned over the desk and
mentioned the name Of a clergyman in a
low voice
"Clergymen should not be on the streets
at that hour Of the night; they GU ght to be
at home in bed dreaming Of their focks.
! don't think this m was doing any
harm. She's discharged announced the
Magistrate.
Another young woman arraigned by the
same detective was sentenced to Boston for
her sins in this city. She gave the name Of
Maud Collins, The detective charged her
with lettering on East Twenty-third street.
She said she had just come from Boston
and didn't know mu oh about the ways Of
this city.

OBJECTS TO CHRISTIAN HYMNS.
Rabbi Foster wants Unseetarian Singing
In Public Schools.

Rabbi Solomon Foster Of the Congrega-
ton B'nai Jeshurun Of Newark, the most
prominent Jewish religious organization Of
that city, sent to President David A. Moln-
tyre OF the Board Of Education yesterday
a formal protest against the continuance
of the singing Of Christian hymns in the
public schools. Rabbi Foster signifed his
willingness TO enter, il necessary, into a
controversy on the question he raised, but
the challenge, which vas referred to the
committee on textbooks, wal avoided by
q motion to file.
Among the hymns that in the judgment
of Rabbi Foster should be eliminated are
Nearer, My God, to Thee" -Old Hundred, y

A ST. r Of the Good Old Sort.

Mansfield Brooks tale Of The Newell

Of the good old times told in the good old
way. The reader is not shocked by head

ing, Blu next day news was to spread

guessed that mystery was come to be our
guest2" OF, 1T was happy for him that he
did not know the future" &c.
The Newell fortune was acquired by
slave trading. The heir of the fortune
spent a goodly sun in being a gay young
blade, in London when the Cheshire
Cheese" was the meeting place for the
handles Of the day instead of the rendez-
vous for Cooks touriste. During this time,
according to the book, many at act has
been committed by our hero that. were 1t
recorded, would rebound little to his credit, .
many a pound has been lost at the gaming
table and more port and brandy has been
consumed than it would seem any man
could manage. Then comes the sudden
reformation Of the old time Sunday school
morality book. "Our hero abruptly de-
votes his life to good deeds and returns
home to marry the gentle maiden who had
beer true to him through all and fortunately
0or herr never knows much Of his career
in London, save that part Of it recorded
for her benefit in the pages of his diary.
