DEACON AND
PASTOR HAD
DISCUSSION.
Service in Baptist Church Last
Night Ended Abruptly After
| Both Had Spoken.
COMMUNION WAS NOT SERVED

| There was no communion service
in the First Baptist church yesterday
morning. This fact led to the sud-
den ending of last nights service
after the pastor, Rev. w. P. Hill, had
been attacked from the floor of the
church by Samuel T. Frost, one of
the deacons.
The first Sunday in the month is
always observed in the Baptist
church as communion Sunday. When
the time arrived to partake of this
yesterday, the pastor announced that
as the Lords Supper had not been
prepared. it could not be partaken of
at that time.
After the service one of the deacons
told the pastor that he had started TO
prepare FOR the communion. but had
been instructed not to do so by the
senior deacon Mr.. Frost. He requested
that the pastor vindicate him before
the people at night. At the evening
service, therefore, Mr.. Hill stated as
the deacon had requested.
Before the close of the service Mr..
Frost arose from his seat in the con-
gregation and began to explain why
he had not had communion prepared.
He said he had not been fairly treated
| by the pastor and declared that the
ldifferences which existed between him
and the pastor were such that warrant
| ed him not to prepare for any com
munion. Several times during his talk
he pointed directly at Mr. Hill. who
stood in the pulpit with bowed head.
When Mr. Frost had finished the con-
| gre cation sat in amaZement at the un-
usual proceeding. Mr. Hill then spoke
| from the pulpit, in his own defense.
/ He likewise stated that he had not been
Itreated fairly by certain members OF
1.-The congregation and by the senior
ldeacon. After that the pastor Offered
a few kind words in behalf of the ma,
tiority of. the congregation. He stated
THAT he had always tried to do his bes
las a pastor and he had always felt {
jdeep interest in his parishioners. As hs
spoke he was several times interrupted
Iby Deacon Frost. but the pastor said
THAT he had the floor and others would
kindly keep their seats
l After his explanation the pastor re-
tquested a hymn sung, but Mr. Frost
insisted upon again taking the floor
1.-THE pastor turned to the organist and
INSTRUCTED him to play and choristers
Ito sing. There was too much suppressed
lexcitement to sing. however. and while
1.-THE organ was playing the consrega
tion began to leave the church. Mr.
Frost attempted to say more, but was
forced to give ii up Several of tht
parishioners wept as the argument was
carried on.
The affair yesterday. is the out
growth of the feeling which has existed
for some time and which caused tht
Ipastor several weeks ago. to resign rs

lment" in the church which had greatly
hampered his work.

FOUNDING
AND FUTURE
OF CHURCH.

1.-THE Founding and the Future of the
First Presbyterian Church of This City
was the subject of the sermon of Rev
James III. Northrup last night.
A history of the local church was in
terestingly given, and in speaking of
the future, Mr.. Northrup said that the
church may be viewed as a divnely-
ordained society of faith, united spirit,
or as human organization of means
and men for the accomplishment of
righteousness, peace. purity and happi-
ness. The church is the agent to bring
about the things that all men know to
be good, whether they associate them
selves with the church or not.
The full amount of the Offering on
church day. $500, was made known yes
terday.
Mr.. Northrup said the church must
adjust itself to the place, but it must
change the place to the extent of its
powers, of its own standard in things
essential. He said that this city is a
busy. overworked people. meaning that
we have no leisure class here. The
congregation is scattered from Hall
avenue to Lewis street. and from the
Pardee works to the ferry The only
possible solution, he said, is for all to
share the work, each one doing little.

PASTOR TELLS
CITIZEN DUTY
AT THE POLLS.
Rev. Or. SnOdgrass FavOrs Full
Vote, Direct Primaries and
Bishops Law.
VOTERS SHOULD GO TO POLLS

Rev. Dr.. W. c. snodgrass pastor of
simpson NJ, e. church. delivered an in
teresting sermon last night ON .The
Citizens Duty on Election Day In
part he said
The pulpit is no place FOR the dis
cussion OF politics either in connection
with the tariff, taxation. currency OF
any other political question except
there he moral issue at stake and
feel that there is such IN the coming
election.
What is the citizens duty on elec
tion day? ! am not here to say that i
is your duty TO yotr for this man o
that The citizen should look to thl
elective franchise as a. commission t,

obligation imposed upon him by tn,
government. The government has Sc
the foreigner apart from the native
Let not the citizen look upon the elec-
tive franchise as natural right but
as privilege, and if he does view it in
this light. he Will not be likely to sell
his vote for a drink, cigar or at the
most a few paltry dollars.
Another duty of every citizen of
these United States is to see that the
best men and only the best are nornin-
ated and then to support those nomi-
nees. Money honestly necessary should
be used in the support of these candi-
dates. I believe in money in politics

any other similar connection hut that

tcaucuses in the hands of big politicians
The conventions should be abolished
Let the people vote on as many candi-
dates as possible at the primaries Their
list of these should be printed at the
expense of the state and the 'citizens
! allowed to check off their choice for the
various offices.
1T is the citizens duty TO vote. Non
use of the ballot should forfeit ths
privilege of voting. BY that L mear
that if for three or four consecutive
years a man fails to attend the polling

WANTED CITY
MONEY FIRST

The Central railroad has sent a
communication to City Clerk Charles
M. Macmillan, which was presented
at committee meeting of the Board
of Aldermen few days ago The
communication was rather unexpect-
ed. 1t asks that the city pay $4,000
toward the building of trestle under
the railroad company's tracks in
North Amboy, in advance. This is
strictly against the city's contract
with the railroad company. 1t had
been expected to build the structure
for about 1880; at least, that was
the first figure given.
The city does not propose to pay
in advance and the city clerk has
been instructed to notify the rail
road company to take note of section
5 of the contract, which reads that
the work shall be paid for when COM
pleted. The city's agreement with
the Central railroad company is that
the city will pay for all expense of
building the trestle, so as to admit
the trunk sewer.

REPUBLICAN
CITY RECORD
is REVIEWED.
Wonderful Progress Made by
Perth AmbOy Under the Re-
publican Management.
PREPARED BY CITY COMMITTEE.
To the Citizens and TAXPAYERS of
Perth AmbOy:

Tomorrow, November 5th, is the
one day in the year when you. by
your vote, may be instrumental in
keeping in power the party that has
shown in the past that it is capable of
giving our city successful and ad-
vantageous administration of public
affairs. The time has gone by when
strict party lines are drawn, particu-
| larly in local politics. We do not
| vote for man. nowadays because
he is a republican, or because he is
a democrat, or because he is affiliated
with any particular party. We should
be ready and willing to give our sup
| port to the party or men who in the
past have been weighed in the bal
ance and have not been found want
ing" We are, or should be, in IA
vor of the party or the men upon
whom he can depend to carry on the
work of our city government in the
way We believe will best advance the
interests of our city, for advancing
the interests of our city must neces-
sarily advance the interests of ev-
cry man who makes the city his
home. Me put very little depend
ence in prediction promises. We
have been deceived by such promises
many times in the past and no doubt
we will be often tempted in the fu-
ture, but in Perth Amboy we do not
have to depend upon promises. We
are like the man from the west; you
must "show u.s." The party that
gets our support must make good y
and If you will let your minds run
| back over the past three years you
must all admit that in Perth Amboy
the republican party has not only
made good" but has also shown
u.s. beyond doubt, that our interests
are safe in it's hands. The record of
both parties is fresh in our memor-
les. We have but to look back over
these records to enable us to form
an opinion as to which party deserves
our support, and because of this rec
ord we feel that the republican party
is justified in coming before the citi-
zens of Perth Amboy and asking for
continuance OF their support. The
Republican party during the past
three years has given you an admin
istration of city affairs that should
merit, not only your appreciation,
but which entities it to a continuation
of your favor. The administration
has been clean, honest, efficient and
! business-like. We admit it has not
pleased every one, but, you know,
such a thing is impossible. The men
who have been associated in the work
of caring for the city's interests have
been tireless in their work. They
have sacrificed their own interests

TO SAVE LAUNDRY BILLS.

If the cuffs, collars and shirts are
washed by the home laundress before
they are sent to the laundry, they
will wear and look better for much
longer time. The shirts do not get
torn, and all the previous dirt is
taken out. This the laundry does not
do. If the collars are beginning to
wear the broken edges show up
plainly after they are washed and
dried The expense is saved of send
ing them to the laundry, as they
would be found worthless on return.
