ST. PAUL’S NEW PREACHER CREATES A FAVORABLE IMPRESSION

BROUGHT LOVE MESSAGE

ih lp . Replate With the ASl-PaiiaSirg Idea .oi She Mastor's Great Lore for H I* People

. For hla flret aermon as pastor of St. Paul's church, Ocean Grove, Dr. Mar­shall last Sunday . moraing .brought.

. hls'people a message of lore, "Ivwish tftrre might be a falling In love be­tween the pew and the puto't Wlmt do you ray ? I give you my love and-1

daahe your love in return, it will make a Urased pastorate."

These words wero utterei in tbo course cf the sermon, rhoy consti­tuted the only reference to the fact that Dr. Marshall -was a newcomer to the charge. Those who expected him tb nsako .1 formal declaration touching Jsis coming to Ocean Grove wero dis­appointed. . He wasted no . words on self-introduction, but plunged at once into his discourse nnd held the close attention of everyone present until ho had closed.

Dr, Marshall is a man of command­ing presence. He has a' pleasing voice, -.vblch, without beir.g raised above tho ordinary tone cf conversa­tion, apparently is able to penetrate every part of the church. In his in­itial sermon ho created a most favor­able Impression, an impression that was strengthened when he bad been hoard again in the evening.

The text of tbe morning sermon was from I John tv. IS: "And wo have Itnown and believed the love that God hath in ua, God is love; and he that dwelleth In love dw e lled In God and God iu him,” The primarj experi­ence in tho Christian life, said he

^.preacher, is the knowledge ot the love of Christ. The atmosphere of our life Is the love of God. Xr* th« sweetness of religious experience fohn wrote the words of-tho text, which as .may be rioted, contain pre-eminent at­tribute bf the divine nature of God. In it are two central ideas, viz , God Is In­finite and God Is infinitely hbly. God is infinite in power, infinite in wis­dom; God is absolutely holy,'absolute­ly perfect in love.”

Another thought developed on this subject by Dr. Marshall was that- God Almighty governs In love. And in this lovo Is admittedly the element of self- denial and anger. Reference was' made to the Russo-Japanese war to il­lustrate thu moving of Providence,' Seventeen battles have beei: already fought in this war, and. the Japanese have been victorious. I believe God intends the Japanese to express to the Orient the AngtoSaxon ideas of love, and purity and mercy; and for that reason tho Japs have been victorious. God Intends that the best shall be giv­en to Japan and to China and to Ko­rea, and by war, perhaps, is the. best ■'ay to get I f A contrast between the cruelty of Russia and tho kind­ness of Japan was. then drawn

"On this flrst morning I bring you the sweetest message, fjod loves you. It is a universal love. None is left out. God opens bis arms and takes in all the face. God's love never changes. Wo know God loves us be­cause He says so arid because Ho acts so. We are bound to accept the truth; of this assertion. God expects to bave: tho first' place In our hearts, iind it is His right Let. us enthrone Him and Orown Hie. Lord 0? All in the fiulRlt, lu tho.pew, in the home,' everywhere. God wants ub to'declare our iove. And Ho wants us to lovo one another. To have a iove for those who do not love us is the supremo test."

In closing Dr. Marshall expressad tho hope that God would help His people to he right so that, they may enter hca/eri just where they leave

..off here. ■ . .Dr. Alday and Dr Gtitterldge wero

present in tbo pulpit and assisted, with tho f’ervice. Reference was made to the death of tho Rev. John Wagg, at Pedrlcktown, and prayer ’sras altered , for his widow and chil­dren and for tho charge to which Dr.’ •7agg had been appointed by tbe Into

confflropce, "and for any . roan wbo may • havo a burden to bear." Some­how tbe Impression prevailed that tho latter clause '<?as meant to apply to the case of tbe Rev. Mr. Sawn, tho now preacher at Bradloy Beach.

At the close ot tha .morning service Dr. Marshall and bis wife wero intro­duced to the congregation.

In the ovenlns Dr, Marshal' preach­ed anothor strong sermon. His text was “Wo know we liavo passed from death unto life, bocauso <we lovo thb brethren,” from1 1 John ill, IS.

At both morning and evening ser­vices, <i9spite the rain, the church was filled to tho limit of its seating capacity.

. Then carted it back again.(After "The King ofl'rance.”

authorities were ; giving attention to

their' side of the lake;About noon the Park workmen were

peremptorily -ordered to throw- back

into the lake all the mud they had

taken from i t . The order came from

Mr. Bradley through his foreman,

Holmes Clayton.

And the mud was put back!

This of course put a stop to the

work on both sides of the lake.

Nothing can bo done In the matter

until the Park authorities settle with

Mr. Bradley on the point of lake own­

Oh, if I am bo soon done for.Then what was I begun for?

We wish to record our expression of esteem for one who for thirty-five years has been an hon­ored member of our conference, and a faithful and successful preacher of the glorious gospel of Christ, j “ To his family we tender, our heart­felt sympathy in this sore bereave- ;ment,, and our prayers that He whoso mercies are from everlasting to ever^ lasting may sustain and. comfort itljem;;T1- azd that their faith in God• may permit them to a reunion In that •home where separation and sorrow ‘ 8hall; noyer come.

■•"To the church which he served, deprived of a pastor at the beginning of another year, wo extend our sym­pathy in their loss, and our sincere .wishes that his sudden removal by death may be so overruled by the Master whom he served that, like one of old, those sialn In his death may be more than those he. slew in his life.” ■ "

This, the eleventh week of the legist lature, was full of business for the solons at the State House in Trenton.

In time to enable the Senators to; elect his successor it is expected that Senator pross, • recently, appointed a Federal Judge, will resign his post as president of the Senate just before ad­journment. The present program fixes next Thursday; Marcch . 30th, as the. date of final; adjournment, ' Senator Bradley Is mentioned as the successor of President Cross.

On Monday evening Assemblyman Mattheus, of Hudson county, intro­duced a bill providing that "after the passage of this -act no woman shall suffer* death as a penalty for the con­viction' of any crime,” and that “ all women now: under sentence of death shall be resentenced to imprisonment for life.” . The bill Is especially de­signed to prevent the ' hanging of Mrs. Valentina, who Is now under sen­tenced of death In the county jail at Hackensack, and whose sentence has been affirmed ,by the Court ot Errors and Appeals.. The Senate passed the act Wliic.h

ratifies the agreement ’ between the States of New Jersey and Delaiyare respecting; the bbundary line between .these States in Delaware Bay.

Senator Wakelee, of. Bergen, Intro­duced a bill known as the Jersey Commission bill, and provides for tiie appointment of a commission of thrfce members, to be named by the Su­preme Court Justice sitting' In each county -having more than one hun­dred thousand inhabitants.

The commissioners are to receive not more than $500 ;a year, and to . serve'

Mr. Duffield made a strong but in­effective plea for ■ the. passage of his bill which gives to village trustees the power to grant licenses to s61i liquor.

THIS BIBLE, A PRECIOUS RELIC, !S_270 YEARS OLD

The Property of West Part Woman, Hand­ed Down From Ancestors

There was brought to this offido on Monday a Bible two hundred and seventy years old. This ancient and rare book has a history of absorbing interest. Handed down from generar tion to generation it is now the al­most priceless possession of Mies Sarah Chandless, of West Park. . . ,

A note in quaint handwriting on the fly-leaf of the book tells that It was found in Smlthfield, England, ^!- ter the big fire In London during the year 1CGG. It Is supposed to . have been the property of one who perish­ed In the flames. T.he precious volume^ bears evidence of having, passed through'a burning and that it did not- escape unscathed;. The ' edges ’"and' cdver are somewhat scorched. Bar­ring this It is well preserved, and no­where In the book has the printing been injured. It was printed by tho University Press of • Cambridge', in 1635, The old style letter / ‘s” is, Of' course, used. In it. . :•

Between Its. covers are many family records. There is set forth the birth' of Margaret Berwick, “tho fifth day of August, between 2 and 3 otl the- clock In the afternoon in the year of the Lord 1707, and baptized the 8th.' of the same month.” The writing,; though in a most peculiar' style; i la plainly decipherable. ’. Several moro births are recorded. The dimensions of Noah’s ark have been figured out; by the1, origlnial owner of this Bible evidently, who has set the, • figures down that posterity, might read;and ponder them. The ext er em e' length of the ark is given as 600 feet, the width as 83 feet and 10 inches,’ and' the depth as 50:’feetr The>tonhage’ is, placed at 5,143 tons. The basis upon which these figures were obtained br. computed is from the' cubit system ot measurement referred to In the.Bible;; with this explanation: '.‘A cubit Is the length of a common man’s elbow, to' his middle finger,, supposed to be twenty inches.” ;

There Is also a second computation' which fixes the ark’s length at 512; feet, Its width at 87 feet and it^ depth at 52 ceet Still another com­putation says the ark was about 450 feet long and that it “was oblong*- square, of 357,600 * cubical cubits.” The number of four-footed .beasts lodged In the boat, according to this.; samo authority, was about 3,650. ’

In • addltlon to the regular Psalms >, the same book Is' given In verse at the end of the volume. This of itself4, stamps Miss Chandless' Bible as - a raro hook, one that would .bring a ' large sum from any collector of antiques. It Is worthy a* place In, a museum. The covers are well-placed together, showing that the i binders of the early days thoroughly understood their business.

M rs. Vail RecoveringMrs. E. O. Vail, of 50 Embury ave­

nue, has about recovered from . the shock she sustained in a fall while alighting from a train at Red Bdnkij on Wednesday tJF last week. Al-' though pretty badly- shaken up, Mrs. Vail was not injured near so badly.;* as was reported. Sbe was able* to give attention to the religious duties which took her to Red Bank and to ; come home unassisted. . , -

The incoherent cry went straight, through the open window. ;like a wing­ed arrow; across the alleyway in; the; grand hotel, and lodged deep In tlie sick heart of a listener there. • Its note of sufferingand nching longing needed no interpreter.

/V Tonight “Carmen’’ was on the bill again. He recalled dully that be had the; same; box for this performance, ihr tending to take her and show her be remembered>. that first night so; long ago. She had said men always forgot, the dates a Woman remembered. . He had'meant to tell-her of his loving lit-- ,’tle’surprise that evening.

“These opera airs—they break my •heart!” broke in the sobbing cry from the window across the alley. John 'raised his head to listen, “Same here,. kidi” he muttered heavily. “It ’s, that lame;girl-poor little beggar! . She does have n devil of a time of it, lying there

~£J1 day with hot water bags and things around her. It ’s a shame!”

“I . want to.be back there on the stage again,” went on the voice, “sing­ing with the rest of the chorus. I was a village; maiden In ‘Carmen,* yoii khowi Mrs. Beebe,” To the conscious pride in this already. wel 1 known fact there came an .indistinct murmur of. 'consolation from the dark interior of the little;room, / •■’)/-///

The man in the darkened window across tho way suddenly stood up, tuhied on the light and squared his shoulders like a soldier ready for marching; “I ’ll do it!” he said grimly. ‘T il not run away like a coward. ' I ’ll face , this thing out. I ’ve got to go through it some time, and I might as well begin now. I ’ll go; right to that same box and fight it out. And, what’s more, I ’m going to take that child along. She’ll probably. look a fright, and people'will stare, but hang tlie peoplel” - / .

He took his hat and overcoat and hurried from the room. At the office he stopped to give an order for an auto cab.

Twenty minutes later ho was bowling toward Broadway with his strange lit­tle companion, still breathless over the wondrous. angel In /. evening ‘ clothes whose determination had carried all opposition before him, Even the fat landlady had been subdued into defer­ence and helped to dress her quickly sb as . not to keep the young gentleman1 waiting; • > ’■ "•

Wlxtpn glanced down at her thin lit- ;tIo face, sharpened by suffering; at her two crutches and her ’Simple white frock, . To his surprise, she appeared tastefully gowned. •

;/ She told him quite simply, with a lit­tle: pathetic .quaver in her voice,; about

she had fallen through a trapdoor left carelessly open by the stage hands one night after.the opera was over and had been in the charity ward of a hospital/ where they, hod not seemed able to cure her; how she could walk only a little way without hurting.

When they reached, the opera house the first net Was nearly, over.

The curtain had just closed on the first act, and the. solitary occupant was shrinking into the farthest corner as though seeking to avoid obseiration. ; •' John reached out to press the electric

button and turned in the blaze of light to. confront tlie woman .who had re­fused him the week before. His lips tightened, and his face went :white. )

“Eunice! - You here?”; The Woman turned a lovely pale face, up to him eutreatingly without speak­ing. .This unlooked for contretemps had’destroyed her polse, woman of the world though she was, and left her as excited and'embarrassed as a schobl- girl. There were traces of tears about the dark pyes, hollow from sleepless­ness. Her soft white throat worked in the stress of emotion, and her bosom; ros^ and fell, pantingly.

At last she found her) voice. It was, low and treiniilQua, and at the thrilling sweetness of it the man’s heavy heart pounded like a liiad thing behind his immaculnte shirt front. ■, .'■)•.)

The famous tragedian, Barry Sulli­van, took liis art so seriously ‘that It Ayas very seldom indeed that he perpe­trated a Joke oh the stage,) although when away from the theater he was one of the most humorous of men; On one occasion; however, Sullivan could not resist the temptation of giving an apt retort to • an amateur who, as Rat­cliff • to his "Richard II I . , ' had quite, overlooked the necessity of committing his words to memory.;v

“During .tlie early part of the. trag­edy,” says Mr. Itobbrt My, Sillard in his i1‘Llfe of Barry Sullivan,” “tills too confident amateur strutted - agreeably and elicited applause from his friends In the . front. /) In the tent scene he screwed up his energies, and when Sui11 van, as Richard,) started from his knees at tlie conclusion of his com­ments on his dream, exclaiming,‘Who’s tliereV. Ratcliff in his -excite­ment stammered: out the answer:) ' 4 ’Tis I, my lord. The early village cock’---and then abruptly stopped, hav­ing apparently forgotten the next line—•1. e., ‘Hath twice done salutotlon to the '.morn.?v v. '_)';*0\y. ), ’

'“Sullivan surveyed the stultified as pect of his officer for a few s<£dnds with a sardonic grin, as if enjoying his agony, and at length growled out in an audible tone: r): v . ; V

/Several years ago ■_* a tenor named. Tamagiio was. eugaged to come, to America and) slug at .the Metropolitan Opera House, New York. . He was paid $1,000. a night. This is a sum which woii 1 ti inake) many people will!ng to put,up with small extra expenses.) But not so Tamagno. . Before leaving) Eu­rope h e m ade a stl'pul«tlon th at he be furnished: with a carriage to. andvfrora the opera house ,eve.ry night. This was inserted in the contract.: V):;’/When he arrived he found a ca.rrlage .waiting at tlie pier. He rode uptown— always at the expense of tiie opera company—and , took a look around. Then he decided to put up at the- Marl­borough hotel, which happens to be

i only'three short lii ocks fromtlieMetrp* polltan Opera * House. Every time; tie sang he walked up to the. opera house, refusing to take a carriage. He said be had just as soon walk. When it came time for him to return to Europe he presented, a bill, for over $200 “ for carriages to;ap4 fr9m the opera.”

“But you didn’t tak6 a carriage,” said ! the manager of the, opera conjpany, ..

Tamagno bowed low; and, invited the' manager to .look at the; contract. He repeated the same Suggestion whenever, anything was said about it. The re­sult, of Course, was that the $200.had tp'be paid... He stood out for it.w itV as much insistence as If he. hadn’t seen a dollar, fcr a month, and all tlie time h© was getting ?1,000 a night

THE STARFISH.

Thl«: Peculiar Creatnre) Cnii N.ehher '.See, .Hear Nor -Sniell,- -;::)./ -•

Uniike man,' the starfish which loses one of its “arms,’? or properly its rays, grows a new one to take its place,... Un­der ceitain .conditions, it grows two to take the place of. one, :A starfish, may lose all its rays without losing its life, and very often a cripple with but a sin­gle ray left is found by fishermen and. collectors., ,Whep completely broken in two 'the), starfish becomes two distinct fish;. and .the growing process contin-) ues, • ih e . brittle starflsli, it is belleved, in many Instances breaks off Its own. rays at the approach of danger. For this reason It is difllcult to obtain a per­fect specimen. '.' ') :;s;\

A starfish can neither see nor hear. Neither has It the sense of smell. In spite of these seeming impediments,) nevertheless, -It seeks and devours - its; prey as iieatly asfan ordinary fish. The) starfish lies upon its. prey and folds its “armSj” or rays, completely about it. 'j- Then it pushes its-stomach out through its moutii and will wrap even a large oyster and shell within the folds of the stomach. The mouth of the starfish is In the center of its'rays.

Some great ships are today employed almost‘wholly in seeking for starfish specimens In deep seas, and there arc~. hundreds of men who'spend a portion of their time in collecting starfish in .the interests of science./Many of’ the specimens collected by ships, are taken from depths of onejahd even iwo miles;

Triumphantly she wrote- her lover, “I can make lemon pie, custard pie aiid Washington pie all myself|” Then did tills man from Maine and the land of orchards assert his loyalty to his home state most vigorously and back over the wires, 2,000 miles away, came this telegram, brief, but emphatic, “Try apple!”r-LewIston (Me.)

Of ail smokers tlie Clilnaman goes to the greatest trouble and obtains tlie least result. "He carries,’* says an ob­server, "a little box-almost twice the size of nn1 ordinary silver cigarette case. This Is half filled with water. In, one end is a removable tiny tube to serve as a. pipe. At the otlier end Is the pipestem. First of all lie takes out the tube and blows through It to remove all blockage. Then he fiiinliles through tils awkward clothes, searching for to-, bacco, arid produces a tilt of rag, In which,it,is wrapped. Carefully lie ex­tracts a wad of tobacco, puts away his rag and slowly plugs ttie tube,- which holdB perhaps the tenth part of an or­dinary cigarette. But he never has any matches, so tie has to borrow or bunt out a brown paper stem and light It. It glows for a long, time and can be puffed Into flame again. He gives a long draw, slowly enjoying it to Its full extent for a minute or two, then back again through the old routine to flnd his tobacco, fill his pipe and get it lighted.” ., .y..

The fact'that 200,000 people vvlt- nessed his execution at Tyburn on Nov, IS, 1724, “upon the tree that bears twelve times a yea re’.’ is some witness to his grim popularity.

Benjamin B. Smith/ writing in the

eight neglected to mention that the

The Rev. Dr. Marshall received a

“‘.^ordial welcome from * St. Paul’s con

gregatlon last Sunday, it is always

. more or less-embarrassing for a mln

Ister.to take up his work in a new

gregations are apt to postpone passing

judgment upon their new pastor until

]! he has had a chance to become accus­

tomed to his surroundings—aecli-

mated, so to put it. But there was no

sign of embarrassment with Dr. Mar­

shall last Sunday. His two excellent

-sermons that day gave ample proof

. that St. Paul’s church has secured a

■forceful preacher, a worthy successor

to Rev. E. C. Hancock. The Christian

' Advocate’s estimate of Dr. Marshall,

printed with his photograph in this

drawn .in the least. We welcome the

A bill has been passed by the Houso of Assembly to carry Into effect tho recommendations of Governor Stokes changing the method of punctuating b ills .. Some of the up-Stato members thought at slrst that, tills bill concorn- ed a now breakfast food that has' lust* been, placed upon the market.—Presn, Long Branch.

CARE IN FILLING LAMPS.

On passing tho residence oi D. C. Leaw of River avenue Tuesday night a blazing torch was seen on tho lawn. Curious to know the cause of the Il­lumination, whether It was in honor of tho victorious Japanese or somo sport of boyhood, inquiry revealed the fact that a mistake had been made by the dealer in substituting gaso­lene for kerosene nnd the blazing lamp had been removed to the lawn to prevent an explosion and wreck within. Too much care in this respoct cannot bo exercised. — Democrat, Manasquan.

PRESERVE THE FORESTS.

In South Jersey thero . ;are many ■thousands of acres of fwoodlands. that can bo secured .cheaply. As Gover­nor Stokes has said, much of It can be obtained merely ny paying the taxes on the property,' In the highlands and at the sources o f , water supply aro other thousands of. acres - that .have very little market, value: ' In the possession of the State, these 'lands' would possess a very important pub­lic value. State conservation of the forests will he calculated to attract population and encourage the estab:

i iishment of commuhlties ;ln. places that are now waste: and uninhabited. Destructive forest fires' can be guard­ed against, and the wealth saved in that way will more than compensate lie State for its outlay In the pur­chase of forest tracts.—Advertiser, Newark.

APPLIES TO OCEAN GROVE;

Well laid sidewalks and properly guttered streets are never so much

i appreciated .as at the fdg. end of a j winter of the severity of the one just , passing. In some of the municipal­i t i e s . in the county where insufficient | attention In years past has been glv.■ en this matter, untold incbnyonlence has been experienced by-the traveling

| public. Such a condition seems inex­cusable- in these days of good roads and: the obligatory laying of side­walks and curbs., A fact, by the wayi

- which . suggests the , remarkable , change of-public sentiment in this re- . gard.. Twenty, or thirty years ago the compulsory laying of a sidewalk

rwoiild-haVe^occasioned- as much 6£-’-a :i public outcry as the confiscation of■ private property .without compensa­tion, and yet It. has -not come to' be

1 recognized as a most beneficial legis- I tive policy and io be universally ac­cepted.—Transcript, Freehold. .

The new school board will meet for

organization on Thursday night of

next wefek. Interest centres In the

selection ’ ot a president aind a

district clerk. As Stephen. D.

■Woolley In point of . service Is the

'oldest member of the board .many be­

lieve lie IS fairly entitled to, and

should be: given, the honors of .the of­fice. The friends of L. vanGilluwe

would like to see him elected to'the

chair, if a new member is to fill it. In

all probability S. A; Hall -will succeed

himself as district, clerk,- although' an­

other member of the board may be bo-

lected for that position.: As at pres­ent constituted,, and no matter who

may be eleoted as its ofllcers, :the new

board Is a well-balanced body and

should prove to be a strong working

organization. Geographically every

district in the. township is represent­

ed in the board, and this is as it

should he, for in no other way can the

lnter^sti of all the districts he so well

conserved. ;The threatened opposi­

tion to the slightly increased school

appropriation did not materialize to

any appreciable extent at Tuesday night’s election. The . people have

come to know that, with the natural

growth of population in. this township

and the consequent Increased aghool attendance It requires a ' trifle more

money each yiear for- tho schools—

more pupils means more rooms, more

teachers, more books, more supplies,

consequently more moiiey. It Is safe

to say that no. intelligent body of

men constituting a school . hoard, . a

maiorlty of' whom, If ,not all, are tax­

payers, would ever ask for more than is actually necessary to operate the

schools. ,

WORK FOR THE. Y. M. C. A.

The work for the boys of Keyport undertaken by the • Young Men’s Christian Association Is deserving of the hearty support of the; people Of Keyport. If any plan can be sug­gested that will serve to keep young hoys from the evil influence of the street, especially at1 nlglit, it would he of Inestimable value to the communi­ty. The streets at, night constitute a school of vice and Immorality that the Influences of tlie day and Sunday schools are powerless .to overcome. Home influence and parental restraint nre undoubtedly .the hest means of keeping the hoys , and. girls in -the rlglit, path, hut -as the great majority of parents in this community and others as well seom perfectly satis­fied to let their children run at large and constitute a great annoy ance to the community, any plan tliat will tend to keep them from bad in­fluences should receive the- liberal support of those who Wish to ; see Keyport a law-abiding, moral com­munity.—Weekly, Keyport,

You N e id n 't Tell How You VoteNo legal process, in Now Jersey can

compel a-citizen to tell how he votes',- Judge Endicott in- the Camden' Cir­cuit court gave a decision to that ef­fect. It was the flrstj time any court In this State, has ru|ed on tho ques­tion involved. ,r.

Rltrer- Giires' Up f Its DeadWednesday morning the body , of a

colored man was washed ashore in, front of Daniel Cooney’s summer cot­tage between Red Bank and M r Ha. ven. The body was found by one oit Mr. Cooney’s workmen. - Its appear­ance Indicated that it had been in the water a long time. The body is sup­posed to be that of a tramp, aged about forty-five years, who had work­ed for a number;Of farmers in Middled town township^ One. Saturday night in January the man came to Red Bank to make some ’ purchases. He made the. Journey between.’ Mr! McClee’s and Red Bank on the Ice, which \ya8 then quite .thin, - Ho left Red Bank late In the evening’arid as ho was missing the next morning it was be­lieved that/he had ' broken- ’ through the Ice and drowned.

M orum int Gommlllee MeetingThe Stokes Monument Committee of

the Ocean Grove Association met Thursday afternoon. In attendance at the nieet|ng were Senator Skirm,. Postmaster Hays, Dr. Ballard and Dr. Alday. A site for the monument wap canvassed, but the-selection o f tho lo­cation was deterred until another irieetlng. It is known, however, that the monument will he placed on Ocean Pathway, between the Audi­torium an * Central avenue.

From-our Regulator respondent.

Washington, March 21, 1905,Senator Morgan, of Alabama, laid

bare in ,the Senate the other day the details of a plot which the Democrats describe as sensational regarding San Domingan affairs. He held the floor of the Senate all day and went into minute; details regarding the al­leged scheme of . William Nelson Cromwell, of. New York, to make the United, States a party to the treaty .by which- private citizens would ob-. tain certain valuable concessions; In San Domingo,, and which without the guarantee bf thig country would be worthless. Mr. Morgan asserted that the plot, had been revealed to him by Mrs. Reeder, a young woman from Alabama, who, with her husband, had .been operating as international spec­ulators and whose business consisted' in obtaining concessions in the South American . Republics for railroads, power plants/; etc. Mr; Morgan' al­luded several times to a ‘‘treaty” be­tween the United States and 'San. Do­mingo,^ which had been drawn for the benefit of the;' Reeders^ but finally when it had been called for and read to .the Senate the Republicans of that body: declared that the whole disclo­sure was a fias co, an d th at Mr; ,C rom- well, who Is alleged had operated with the Reeders, was a manf of the high­est moral' and financial standing, Mr. Morgan, nevertheless, maintained that if an .investigation were made It would disclose the. fact that Mr. Crom­well had grants for all concessions of any consequence in San Domjnga and that It was he who would be found responsible for all of the Influence .in favor of the United States taking charge of the finances of that country and thus making good his grants.;.'"Jn any case and whether or not Mr; Morgan was justified in his, revela­tions- of a plot against this govern­ment the San Domingan treaty is dead beyond power of revival.

The Committee of Intestate Com­merce will, . I t . Is announced, hold Its sessions in Washington, beginning about the middle of April to consider the subject of railway vrate • legislation which was also dismissed -.without ac­tion 1 at the close of the regular /ses­sion. Several members of this com­mittee are among .those who will sail, in July with Secretary Taft’s party for an investigation of conditions in the Philippines, so that ft Is not like­ly that they will consume many weeks.

The triennial convehtioii of the Mothers’ Congress, held In Washihgr ton, has. come to a close, and a. ma­jority. of these National Mothers have returned to. the ir homes .and have h e- come for the most part just plain, or­dinary mothers again. . A number of tli'em: have decided to remain over In Washington , u n til. in April when the Daughters of the American Revolu­tion will .hold their annual congress; for many of the mothers are also Daughters and the Capital will, thus riot be deprived entirely of the. spirit­ual influence and protection of these women organized as societies for the prevention and promotion of every­thing. The sessions of the Mothers* Congress .here have been most suc­cessful. A number of speakers of National reputation have addressed them, the feature, of course of the Congress, being the address of Presi. dentj Roosevelt, which . has been quoted broadcast in this country and Europe. The French and German Am-, bassadprs and the Japanese . Minis­ter s have ■. addressed the convention and given descriptions of the condi­tions affecting children In their coun­tries/ I

Secretary of State Hay, who has been ill a great part of the winter with a broncial trouble, has decided on the advice.of his physician to take a long sea voyage this spring. He left Washington at the end of the week; Mr. Loomis, the first Assistant Secre­tary of State,; who is also away" for the benefit of his health, will not re­turn to Washington until April third. After: the President leaves fo r; his trip through the. Southwest any busi­ness of the State Department outside of the routine work will be referred to Secretary Taft, and as Mr. Hay will return before Secretary Taft leavesoil his Philippine trip the;: department will not be left without a head. Mr. Loomis, It is' said, is the author, of the original San Domingan treaty which has proved such an embarrassment to the administration, and the leaving of Secretary Taft in charge of the State Department is probably done with a view to avoiding any awkward situa­tions in our relations with other gov ernments; in which inexperience iii the conducet of the State Department might involve us. ,. ,

On Wednesday Assemblyman Sco- vel, chairman of the Committee on Municipal Corporations, Intro­duced the committee substitute for the Morris Canal Abandonment bill, which was presented some weeks ago, and upon which two of the most Im­portant hearings of the session were held.

A bill introduced by Mr. Johnstone, of Essex, creates a State Hoard of Railroad Commissioners, to be ap­pointed by the Governor, to consist'of three persons, one of whom shall bo experienced In railroad business. The commissioners shall hold office for six years, and each receive an annual salary of ?4,000. They _ may appoint a secretary, two Inspectors and other clerical and expert help. No member or employe of the board shall have any official relations with or pecuni­ary interests in any railroad corpora­tion or person saving business with railroads. The board shall have an ofilce in the Capitol and shall meet at least once in every month. The total-' .expenses of the board shall not’ ex-• ceed $25,000 per annum, and shall be repaid to the State by the railroad corporations on such basis as the board may prescribe. The board shall. have general supervision of all steam, , electric and other railroads, and keep Informed of their condition and oper­ation. It shall Investigate accidents, hear and examine complaints touch­ing railroad service, and applications . for change of stations, routes, cross^ Ings and abolition of grade crossings/. and render Its decisions and recom­mendations thereon. . It shall report : to the Attorney General any flagra.nt violations of the law or contempt of its decisions or recommendations, and the Attorney General shall take such action thereon by mandamus or other­wise as may be proper. The board shall report annually to the legisla­ture.

A committee substitute for Assem­blyman’s Henry’s Free Antitoxin bill was reported in tho Senate Wednes-- day morning. The substitute, which; was adopted, provides that the State Board of. Health shall enter into a , contract with some responsible manu-.; facturer to supply, free of charge upon the certificate of the attending - physician, to such indigent patients as shall require it, such antitoxin as may be necessary for their proper re­lief.

What is known as tho^Bond Inter­est bi.. was killed in the Senate. Mr. Brown, discussing the bill, explained that Belmar had Issued bonds at 4 per cent, and failed to sell them after purchasers had agreed to take ttem ,^ and that, Inasmuch as purchasers were willing to buy them at 4 ^ per , cent., the bill had been Introduced to meet that exigency, and condition. Senators Wakelee and Hutchinson opposed, the bill, on the ground that the principle which it developed was objectionable, in that municipalities should not be led to expect that they might obtain remedial legislation on municipal business matters.

The Story of Carrara Paint

The story of Carrara Paint la worth telling anil worth tho reading.

It’s-the story, of a success, and'suc­cess Is" always inspiring.

Borne years ngo, a world-renowned chemist discovered the secret o! a pig­ment which, In proper combination with linseed oil, produced n paint of Marvelous toughness, covering pow­er, durability and beauty.

He iras firmly convinced that it was destined to revolutionize the paint business. He set about convincing other's.

Llko every departure from the Insti­tutions of otir grandfathers, this one was jeered at, ridiculed and discount­ed by tho very persons who should havo been most interested In proving its worth.

But tho discoverer was not dis­couraged., Ho finally went to the head of a Bal­timore concern and proposed to provo that his paint'-was better than any other.' Now, there is no place to hard on paint as a chemical laboratory. The fumes and gases causa white paint to: turn yellow, and attar, -the lapse of weeks, or at most months, entirely destroy the coating. In this particu­lar factory ho wallr, are tainted white for the sake ot light and cleanli­ness; painters wore obliged, to repaint

.frequently on account of discolora­tion and consequent lack of reflecting power.

Tbo discoverer know that no gases, so washing, would have the slightest effect upon Carrara., In bis boundless earnestness and enthusiasm be exclaimed: ‘'If I paint your factory and laboratory, with Car­rara Paint, and it i3 irs good condition at the end of five years, will you put up the money to manufacture and n?arket it?"

He did not stop to think liow long five years would be.

Without a moment’s hesitation the answer came: “Yea."

The building was painted. . At the cud o; a year the Carrara Paint man called; and, finding the paint In as good condition as when placed upon the wails, asked the company if they were not ready to go ahead.

"You said five years,” was replied. !Not a day, not an hour,’would the

:uen subtract from the allotted time. They wanted a thorough, practical test.

It. was weary waiting for the man * with tho secret or the pigment, but he [ was upheld by tlie certainty of sue cess. in tlie end, and . five years from the date the agreement was made he bad his reward.. The paint was apparently un changed. A sponge and warm water

.restored tlie dirtiest, place to its orig- . tnal gloss and whiteness. Tbe coating '’/as tough nnd elastic, showing that ttie life of the paint was unimpaired.

The Carrara Company sprang into existence, and, from a small factory, has grown and expanded until it now operate the largest exclusive house paint factory in the world.

,fNothlng succeeds like Carrara" is the new version of the old adage,’. In selecting a paint, the question Immediately arises: Why should I use Carrara Paint in preference to the old-style paint?

Naturally, us manufacturers of the only paint that is different from all

; the rest, wc are anxious to persuade you to use Carrara Paint If we can do 80 by legitimate means. '

We beg to assure yoii. that we do not aim to make a statement or claim for Carrara Paint" that the paint will .not actually support.

We have no need to exaggerate the virtues of Carrara Paint. It is so much better tlian any other preparation on the market that any mlsrepresenta-

—tlon, any concealment of facts, must come from the other fellow.

When we state that Carrara Paint does not contain a semblance of white lead, that' portion of mankind which has been bred up in the good old be lief that no paint is good without white lead may reasonably be expect­ed to hold up his. hands in holy hor­ror at the sacrilege. The fact how- ever, that Carrara Paints contain no white lead Is why tli'cy are superior, which we will prove conclusively iu tho. following paragraphs.. Property owners everywhere know

<>nly too well tho result they have been-getting from the old-style paints. Painters', too, acknowledge the poor results, and that they are unable to j ;et satisfactory results from the old- style paints, as they do not support their efforts toward ;Solng gopd work.

Lead paints were standard from the time It was. discovered that whits jead and oil wero superior to lime and ■water until Carrara Paint entered the field and established a new standard

This is not an idle boast; It’s hard, “uu-get-arouud-able” fact.■ The ideal paint is one which excels

in durability, beauty, ease of applies, tion and economy.

It ought to become as near aa possl hie a part of .the surface to which it Is

■ npplled, so that it can not come off except by wear of time.

Good paint must not lose, its lustre it must not chalk; you’ve seen paint which, after a few months losca its gloss and takes on a dull, flat appear ' ance, nnd In a year, or at the most two years, leaves a mark upon every­thing that comes In contact with it; it io easily rubbed off; that’s chalking,

. and shows conclusively that the life of the paint (oil) is gone..Good paint should not crack, peel

nor blister.

/ Blisters are caused by oho of seyer- »1 things. Either a paint ha3 been ap-

..piled over a surface, not thoroughly dry, or the paint contains some kind of numerous adulterants, tbo principal ono of which is water in the oil. All old-style paints contain a percentage of water. To prove this, place a can of any paint- In a freezing tempera­ture—-it will freeze; , oil will not freeze. Neither wilt Carrara, for Car­rara Is an oil paint with NO WATER.

The naturo of Carrara win not per­mit .fixing with witer, unlike white lead, that can be mixed lii water.

The first Indication, of deterioration ia paint la tho lass of -that brilliancy of gloss which makes, a newly-painted surface so attractive to the eye

The disappearance, of this glqss means that the life of the paltit is dead. It requires only a very short' time with tlie very best lead paints to show these results.

Theti a Surface adds blotchiness to the dingy appearance which > follows the loss of gloss In paint; the wood appears iii spots, and nothing .hut. a fresh coating of paint w ill, restore, it to an appearance of respectability.

What causes -this? . ■Tho reasons are: linseed oil is the

life and body ot any paltit. .White lead if d natural oxidizer, and is sot neutral in linseed' oil: Its chemical action destroys.the life of oil to such an exlent that you lmve, no doubt, noticed buildings when first painted with white-lead'paints have, a gloss finish, which gloss, i t three or four months’ time, Is .tone (the oil lu what gives tho gloss), and in from fifteen months to two years’ time.. the<,.sur- faco is chalky, showing that the life of tho paint (oil) lit destroyed and completely gotte.

All paints (excepting Carrara) are made from a white-lead base.

■Most all manufacturers of old-style paints aro today advocating paints made from a combftiatioi. of white lead ahd other materials to be better than paints made from a strictly pure white lead.

HEW YORK AMUSEMENTS

“The Education of Mr. Pipp,’’ Augustus Thomas’ new comedy, found­ed on the Gibson cartoons, entered on the second month of Its remarkably successful run at the Liberty Theatre last Monday night. This is a play which appeals particularly to bright people who appreciate humor, bril­liant dialogue and splendidly develop­ed comic situations. Tiie patronage of the Liberty Theatre since tho open­ing of this play has been particularly distinguished for Its large majority'of fashionable people, evidenced by the beautiful ■ costuming of the ladies in attendance. This has been so marked that; it has been said that every audi- ence at the Liberty ;Theatre during the run of. this play has,been remin­iscent of the gala performances at the Metropolitan: Opera House, Dig- by Bell as Mr. Pipp has scored the'hit of his.long career. , - v.

May Irwin will begin her fourth en­gagement in New. York this season in "Mrs, Black; Is Back” at the New York Theatre next Monday, oyerilng. This is a record that Is held exclu­sively by this jovial comedienne and 1b certainly a very, strong evidence of the merit of her vehicle. George V. Hobart, the author of the' famous “John Henry’’,.HtorIcB, is responsible for her p lay.: While, the lines and situations are comic nnd the piece is an exaggerated and absurdly farcical concoction, it has the merit of . em­bodying distinctive dramatic force. The story, hinges on a "white lie” told by Mrs. Black, to her newly-wedded second husband. in : reference to ' her age. MIsb Lrwln will play but one week at the New York Theatre and will be followed on Monday, April 3, by pol. Savago's production of “The Prlnco of Pllsen.” Matinee perform­ances during Mlaa Irwin's engage­ment will take place,, aa uBual, on Wednesday and Saturday. Prices will range from 25 cents to ?1.

S IX NEW MEM BERS ED U C A TIO N BOARD

(Concluded from flrst page.)

In his annual report District Clerk Hall said:

Wo liavo mot tonight to rovlew the past year, in rc’feron'co to , our schools and to elect six members to the. Board of Education—three for the full term of three years and three, more for two years to fill out tho term In piac©' of tm ^& yho wore appointed last year to hohr^ho offlco until tho next election. Also to vote on tho appropriations thought'necessary. At a meeting held In th is. building '.a year ago we elected threo members to tho board and .the. ap­propriations required; ' leaving . out the Borough: of Bradloy,i Beach,, which had been separated from thb district by a law passed: In Octobei;, 1903! On. March'

;tho‘ 2nd, 1004, a bill passed - tho Houso oind Seriate and was signed ■ by the .Gov-- ernor; . which- reconsolldated . the Bor^ ough of Bradley Beach to this district, legislating three members of the board out of offlco and making It. nccoseary for tho County Superintendent to ap- po/nt threo mcm'bora to hold offlco untiltho next annual, election. The law alsomade It essontlal to call ariothor meet­ing of tho voters of tho district to in- creaBo. the appropriations. Monthly meetings of tho Board of Education have been held, dt'which time the best interests of the- taxpayers, as . well as the children, havo been carefully consid­ered. When you tako* in considoration that there, are ten schools, with fifty- nine teachers, and about 2i400 pupils, and also that insurance has ’ mdro than doubled, and: the- cost ■ of supplies ma­terially increased, you wlii readily see .that expenses, ev6n with . tho strictest economy,. 'muBt be considerable. '<The problem of how to - accommodate

the Increased number of children iii tho district still confronts us.r Wo have, as you know, a small building on • West Sunset avenue that, will seat only forty- five pupils, while there, are ninety on the Vnorth slide of Asbury.'ayenue. Mr. Bradley donated the’ l o t s t o build' V,a 'school house.on two -years ago,Vbut ac­cording 'to law we could not build . at that time/ S!nco then, however, the jaw has been changed, and the building can be erected If. tho people of Neptune Township b o decide. •

All the school buildings, with the ne- cessary repairs that have bocn-.mado are In a fair condition. The grounds.around the Bradley Park school house aro. In .batf condition. Considerable filling in hns been done by ashes carted from the high school building, but top-soil •• and cultivation .seem to boo necessary, - Tho bid wooden 'curbinj? is beyond; repair and it has been .proposed that a. stone curb­ing bo put in its place. . '>.... . : -

The schools have,- notwithstanding the severe weather, .. .been well' attended, "so fur. this’ :year. The .enrollment in-; 1903 : was 2,293; in 1904, ;2.311; this year the in'-; crease is ' about 100. . The ; days' attend­ance . in 1903 and .1904 was ’ 272,000. ..This year, • Judging from- the • .present attend-; ance, will-be about .18,000 more.

As I^have snld before, wevaro sorely in need of more room for pupils. T|»ero are 92 pupils In tho Prospect avenuo school that live north of Sewall avenue. There aro twenty In this school below tho fourth grado who sliouid be in tho Pros-

----— . ;bmiflieg-^w.Sunset avenue/would no moro than , re- movo the pressure.

I cannot close my rpport until 1 have reminded you of the great loss . tho Board of Education'., and • the ■ Neptune Township schools have sustained. The Grim . Reaper has taken, from us Capt. Lewis : Rainear, one .. whose foremost , thought seemed to. be, “How can I ad­vance tha cause . of education?’’ /H is

counsol 'is missed. . A'.bravo soldier,' an honest; citizen, a noble mnn has gone to

:his reward.

For. organization, the board will meet on. Thursday evening of next week, at which time a president; vice president and district clerk will be chosen.
