NEW JERSEY STATE NEWS
IerseY Minister speak.

The evils of intemperance and the
regulation of the liquor traffic were the
themes most generally discussed in the
pulpits of New Jersey Sunday. Prot
estants and Catholics, in response to
the calls already received. united in
the common cause and urged their con-
gregati0ns to unite in advocating the
passage of the liquor legislation pend
ing before the Legislature. The Cath
Ollie and Episcopal clergy urged particu-
larly the Endorsement of the high IL
cense, or bishops, bills agreed upon
at the nterdenOminatiOnal conference
of the clergy recently held in Trenton.
In the Baptist and Methodist churches
local option was generally advocated
while the clergy of other denominations
treated the subject in accordance with
their several views Bishop McFaul
headed the movement in Trenton, con-
fning his remarks at the Cathedral
exclusively to the liquor question. He
predicted that the day would be for
ever memorable in the State as the
occasion when the Christian pulpit Of
New Jersey had raised its voice against
the shocking abuses of the liquor
traffic, and Christian churches, ire
spective of denominnt ton, had pledged
themselves to stand shoulder to shout
der in defense of morality and the
American home, against the entrance
of politics into the saloon business, and
to continue the battle until such laws
are enacted as will cause the liquor
traffic to be conducted without detri-
ment to the peace and virtue of the
community. Continuing he said: "Ev-
nr Knows fh0f tho (tQfhnllG
Church is conservative. that she does
not condemn the use Of intoxicants,
while at the same time there is no more
indefatigable foe of their abuse. Let
1t then be well understood that this
campaign is directed solely against
abuses and the neglect on the part
of public officials to punish the vio-
laters of law. In the name of religion
and morality, in the name of the fam
lily and the home, in the name of the
thousands of young men and women
who are debauched and brought to
ruin and desolation, the Christian pep
pie of this State have begun this war
fare, and with Gods help they will
pursue it until those engaged in the
liquor traffic have been compelled to
obey the law This campaign is con-
Quoted on rational lines, Therefore,
every self-respecting man and woman
every conscientious liquor dealer, every
law abiding manufacturer of intoxl.
cants should be interested in this agita-
ton and assist us to eradicate the vices
and abuses now connected with the
sale of intoxicants, because that sale
in most instances violates both the
laws of God and man."

The Dread Disease Pneumonia.

We spend time and money in
fighting the white scourge and one OF
the important measures proposed by
the lows legislature to act upon this
winter is the founding of state hos
pital for consumptives. Yet it is
doubtful If this disease can lay claim
to larger number of victims than
can pneumonia. In the presence OF
the rampant pneumococcus the physi-
clan is practically helpless. The
question of recovery seems to be
whether the patient is strong enough
to bear with the poison produced by
the germ until that poison is strong
enough to kill the germ itself. 1t is
duel to the death between patient
and germ and if the patient would win
he must begin to train long before he

Card From Missing Mayor.

A postcard bearing the signature Of
William H. Belcher, who mysteriously
disappeared from Paterson some time
ago, after embezzling about 100000,
has been received by William J. Bar
bour, prominent lawyer of Paterson.
Those who have seen the card and ex-
amined the signature, say it is either a
genuine signature of the missing Mayor
Or a good imitation. Mr. Barbour and
Mr.. Belcher were intimate, and both
owned property in Haledon, where Mr..
Barbour resides. The postmark on the
card showed that it had been mailed on
Tuesday last on train Of the Sus-

Bakers Romance of Robbery

There were one or two little details
lacking in the story which Frederick
Roedel, the Millville baker, told of his
robbery by two masked men, and the
detectives winked an eye to each other
as he told it. AS a result Roedel is under
arrest, charged with embezzlement of
the $4,000 he said the robbers forced
him to get out of the safe after they
had gagged him The detectives
learned that against the $4,000 insur-
ance money Roedel had collected for
the loss of the brick works of which
he was owner he had claim of $4,000
to settle with Lemuel M. Hess, from
whom he had purchased the plant.
That gave them the scent and in n
few days, they claim, they found that
Roedel had deposited $4,000 in Phila-
delphia bank. The bakers arrest fol-
lowed, and Mayor Payne held him UNI
der $4,000 bonds for trial.
