Gus lively tilts with the officials OF
the church board. 1t got so hot for
all hands, according TO report, that
the absence of heating apparatus in

NEGRO MORTALITY HURT
IN SHOOTING AFFRAY

PLAINFELD, Mar Tn a quar-
rel over twenty-five cents Lee John
son, colored, thirty-five years old, a
waiter employed at Truell Inn, was
shot seriously by Thaddeus Payne,
also colored, twenty-eight years old.
1t is expected Johnson will die.
The shooting occurred in pool
room in Feast Front street. Payne
escaped and the police are still hunt
ing for him. From statement made
by Johnson and by friends of the two
men the police know that bad feeling
had existed between the two. They
had quarreled two or three times
over twenty-five cents Johnson had
borrowed of Payne and when they
met in the pool room last night the
pickering was resumed. Payne
seemed to be reused to white heat
and drew a forty-four calibre re-
volver. He fired at least two shots
and one of them struck Johnson in
the stomach.
Payne jammed the revolver bach
in his pocket and ran out through
the front odor Johnson started to
run as the shooting began and kept
on in spite of the ball in his body
going out the back way. Both men
left their hats behind. Johnson eX-
hibited considerable vitality. The bull
let passed through his liver, travelled
up through his lung and went on al
most through his body, but he kept
on his feet and walked through to
Second street. He went into stable
there, got hat from a hostler and
went out into the street again. There
he met Patrolman John Payne, who
took him to police headquarters.

RED BANK, Mar. THE sup.
ipression of the story of the raid made
by the local police Sunday night on
an alleged disorderly house conduct
ed by Mrs. William j. Abbey, in Sun
set avenue, has been the cause of not
little comment among residents
here Mrs. Abbey was taken in GUS
tody, together with her daughter
Mabel, and Viola Brewer. Neither girl
is more than fifteen years old. 1t is
alleged three men who were in the
house made their escape by jumping
out of a window.
The Brewer girl, when taken be-
fore Justice Wise, Is said to have told
a story concerning what had been go
ing on at the house for the last year.
She is reported to have alleged that
girls of her age were visitors to the
house and that they drank lutoxi-
cants. The girls, she said, played
truant from school in order to be at
the house. White and colored men,
both married and single, remained in
the house over night, the girl testi-

OpPOSEDI TO DEATH
CHAIR IN TRENTON.
Senator From Tint city Introduced
Bill to Repeal EIectrocution Law
Passed Last Winter.

TRENTON, Mar. TIN the senate
yesterday a bill to repeal the electro
cution law, passed last winter, was
introduced by Senator Hutchinson, of
this CITY, who is incensed at Senator
Wakelee for introducing the bill to
have executions at the state prison.
He claims this will attach the stigma
of death town" to Trenton, and says
he will fight the measure this winter,
as he did last, when he succeeded in
having the bin amended to read in
some isolated place." 1t is believed.
however. that Senator Wakelee's bill
providing for death chamber and
which was introduced this winter will
be passed. and that the death cham
ber will be erected at the prison,
where it can be done for $4,000, or
100000 less than the cost at some
other place. There is little real sem
timent in Trenton against the loca-
tion of the chamber of death at the
prison.
Another bill along this line that is
expected to make its appearance soon
is one to abolish capital punishment
in this state Such a measure, how
ever, is not likely to pass.

THE CALL.


Because the night is dark and lone,
Because the fields are bleak and
bare,
Because the clouds are dark above,
Shall we forget the stars are there?
Because the way is steep and hard,
Because our hearts are wavering,
weak,
Because the heights seem hard to
win,
Shall we neglect our tryst to keep?
Not SO did He in Galilee,
Not so did any one who dared,
But mindful only of the right,
Through sorrow, suffering, on
ward Jared.
Ours was the fault; we who forgot
That all was ours; we who were
still,
While wrong traduced the nations
right,
And giants stole the nations will.
We who forgot our ehildren's rights;
We who forgot our legacies,
Bought with the best blood of the
years;
We who are masters, one and all,
Ours is the duty, we who can,
The hour has come, Where is the
Man?

azine.

DEATH OF DOWIE.
End of the Most Spectacular Career
of Recent Years

End of the Most Spectacular Career
of Recent Years
When John Alexander Dowie passed
away death ended the most spectacu-
lar and remarkable career that modern
and tragic failures puuctuated his life.
Here are some of the remarkable
works and reversals that marked
DoVie's career:
He built creed he was excommu-
.nicated
He built a city; lie was exiled from
It.
He amassed fortune of millions; he
was reduced to virtual poverty.
He elevated Vollva to great power ;
Noliya deposed him.
He drew about him thousands who
worshiped him; he died deserted by all
save handful of the faithful.
Chicago witnessed in the course of
q few years the founding Of a cult, its
extraordinary growth and the sue
cceding dissensions which divided its
followers, then the death OF its founder
and first apostle. The work OF John
Alexander Dowie in Chicago began fif-
teen years ago on foundation OF So
called divine healing. He was hooted
and pelted with missiles by mobs and
arrested by the police Dowie, perse-
.cuted and militant. won the enthusi-
astic devotion Of many. Dowic, trium-
plant, established like a prince or a
patriarch in city of his own building
lost the confidence of the great major
lty Of his followers. He died with only
