BREED THEATER.

The Cabin Boy, a stirring story of the sea, is one of the features at the Breed today, and is as strongly dra- n,atic any picture shown in some time. The Sailor-father receives on the day of his sailing a letter from his sister, which, in opening, he cuts ill half. His wife receives severe shock after he has left when she finds the portion of the letter without a sigma ture. She at once suspects him and without further warning leaves the home. preparing to work for herself and little child. He returns to the old home, but finds no one there, and wearily starts upon another voyage. Meanwhile the child wears the little locket which he gave her. when he left. Years later the struggling mother is seen face to face with poverty. and the child, disgusting herself as a boot black, seeks to assist her mother
 IInkn ,win gly, she secures the place of cabin boy cn boat tlat is Irepar- ing for a long cruise, and the sailors, believing her to be a boy, dare her to walk the wet rail of the schooner. In attem pting it, she slips and falls over board, and is rescued by the pilot, who makes the startling discovery that the child is not aboy as believed, but 8 pretty girl, and by the locket she IS found to be the pilots own daughter.
 Meanwhile the mother hears of the girfG plans to leave for the CT uise, and arrives just as the child is saved from drowning by the father, and the estranged couple is brought together, ana the letter explained, and all start su the road to happiness again

chaIIenae for Open psbats.

MT Editor: The recent unprecedent- ed gains of the socialist party have caused even those who were indifferent heretofore to sit up straight and ob- serve. Realizing the justice. desirabii- ity and necessity of socialism and hold ing the opinion that a public discus sion of the principles of socialism for and against would be a benefit and education to Norwich citizens. we de- sire to issue herewith a friendly chaI- leEge to anyone to an open debate up- or the justice, desira slIity and neces- sity of socialism, the socialist party to assume all expenses. Inasmuch as fewer than 200 Norwich voters ballot ed for socialism in the recent election out of over 5000 who voted, it seems as if there are a good many people in Norwich still who are not yet con- vinced of the necessity or desirabiIity of socialism. If there is anyone Tn Norwich willing to maintain the mega tive of the above proposition in open debate- please communicate at earliest convenience with Alaert Boardman. "A Franklin street. Norwich.

THE PROSPECT.

Methinks we do as fretful children do, Leaning their faces on the window
 pane To sigh the glass dim with their own
 breath's stain And shut. the sky and landscape from
 their view; And thus. alas! since God. the Maker,
 drew A mystic separation 'tWixt those
 twain, The life beyond us and our souls in
 pain We miss the prospect which we are
 called unto By grief we are fools to use. Be still
 and strong, o man. my brotherl hold thy sob-
 ping breath, And keep thy souls large window pure
 from wrong; That so. as life's appointment issu-
 eth, Thy vision may be clear to watch The sunset consummation lights of
 death.

MISSION PRIEST
DRAWS GRAPHIC
PICTURE OF Sin
Rev. Father Scully Portrays
Horror of Deathbed Scene OF
Unrepentant EviIdoer.

The Rev. Father Joseph Flemmirg
opened the fourth nights services OF
the wofnen's mission at st. Joseph,s
Catholic Church last evening with Il
brief instruction on the Blessed Virgin
Mary, and afterward recited the
rosary. #
The sermon was on The Judgment
by the Rev. Father Joseph Scully.
The preacher touched upon the vari-
Gus guises in which sin assails hui
manity and drew graphic pictures OF
the demoralizing results upon those
who habitually yield to the tenpta-
tons, and also of the dangers that
threatened them in regard to the life
TO come.
Father Scully depicted the agony of
the dying sinner and told OF experiences
which he himself had encountered at
the bedside of those whom vice and SIN
had deprived of the power of repent-
ance.
After the sermon, benediction of the
blessed sacrament was given.

HOBOkEN SCHOOL
BOARD WINS IN
MONEY CONTEST
Common Council Must ApprOpri.
ate Funds for Building
and Site.
1spsclal 10 the Newark star.l

TRENTON, May 1.-Two Hoboken
public school appeals in cases in which
the Common Council of that city has
refused to provide school funds were
decided today by State Superintendent
of Public instruction Charles j. Bax-
ter, and in each case the decision is
against the Common Council,
In one case the Board of Education
decided that $4,000 was needed for the
purchase of a new site for a school
building and that SIS. 900 was needed
for the building. The Board Of School
Estimate acted in favor OF both esti-
mates, and the sums were duly certi-
fed to the Common Council. The Coun-
ell refused to provide the money and
the school authorities appealed to the
state superintendent. Today he or
dered the Common Council to appropri-
ate the money forthwith.
In the other case the Council refused
to provide 81, $50 for the settlement Of a
claim of the Calumet Construction
Company against a school building in
course Of construction. In this case,
too, the order Of the State superin-
tendent is that the money must be pro-
vlded at once, the Board of Estimate
having certified that it is needed.
Both decisions are based on a decision
of the State courts in a Montclair case,
in which it was held that the aprro
priation is complete as soon as the
Board of School Estimate acts, and
Council must at once provide the funds.

EP|SCOPAL|ANS TO
MEET IN ANNUAL
CONVENTION HERE
Two-day Session at Trinity
Church Will Be Opened by
Bishop Lines.

The annual diocesan convention oil
the Newark Episcopal diocese will be
held at Trinity Church on next Tues
day and Wednesday, and will be at
tended by between 200 and 300 minis
tiers and lay members in the northern
part of New Jersey. The session will
last two days.
The convention will be opened on
Tuesday morning, when the Rt. Rev,
DR.. Edwin S. Lines, bishop of the
diocese, will hold a communion service
at Trinity Church. He will be as
sisted by the Rev. Louis Shreve Os-
borne, rector of the church. After the
service the convention will organize,
and in the afternoon nominations for
the different offices to be filled will be
made.
On Wednesday there will be a dis
eussion of missionary work and the
election of secretary, treasurer and
members of the standing committee,
board of missions and delegates to the
missionary conference.
The missionary conference will be
held in this city in October, and will
be the largest gathering of members
of the Episcopal Church that this city
has I've known. The United States is
divided into eight districts, the Eastern
district, which includes Newark, con-
sisting of all the Atlantic coast States,
as well as the New England States,
Pennsylvania and Maryland.
Lunch will be served the visiting del
egates on both days of the convention
at the beautiful new parish house Of
Trinity Church on Rector street. At
present the membership of the Newark
diocese consists of about 100 parishes
and twenty-five missions.
In this connection it is interesting to
note that though the Newark diocese
is one Of the smallest in the country in
area, Rhode Island alone being smaller,
1t stands sixth in point Of wealth of Its
parishes.

OLD LANE DISCOVERED IN
TOWN CENTRE AT TAX SALE
Harrison Council May Improve
Property if Proof Is Produced.

There are perhaps few people in Har-
rison who know that there Is an unused
lane in the town running from Harri-
son avenue south to Sussex street. 1t
developed yesterday at a Martin act
sale that such is probably the case.
The commissioners had marked down
for sale for unpaid taxes d lot located
on the east side OF the saloon occupied
by Adam Billand, at 429 Harrison
avenue.
William j. Davis, a member of the
commission, declared that the lot was
in reality a dedicated thoroughfare and
ne said he could likely unearth an old
town map which would show the strip
to be part of a lane The sale of the
property was deferred until June. The
Harrison Realty Company, it is said.
lays claim to the property, but no taxes
have been paid, it vas said, since 1875.
At the present time a high fence is
built in front of the strip. Investiga-
ton today proved that the lane, if such
it is. continues through to Sussex
street. The Town Council may take
some action in the matter of improving
the territory, if conclusive proof re-
garding its being owned by the town is
produced.

Orange, who was wanted by the United

terday afternoon apprehended the man
in Whippany. About three months ago

ship in Newport, was granted a fur
Tough, and at the expiration Of his va
cation failed to return, and the officials
asked the police TO institute search for

ately. This he failed to do and the po-
lice have been searching for him since.
