Tho aeecmblngo was called. to order by District Olork T, Frank Appleby. Mr. George F. Kroehl was elected.chalrman'and WHUam: E. Bedell acted as secretary. Tho

. district elork read tho call for the meeting, and also submitted tho financial Report for tho fiscal year. This Jwas received, and on motion it was.ordered that it bo published in full.

Tho question of appropriating money to meot current expenses according to the budget made up by tho Board of Education was noxt taken up for consideration. The law Tequiiea that in c d b o of an objection a ballot must bo taken upon each item. Some­one objected to $7,400 for teachers’ sal* nrleB, and It was therefore found necessary to dofor this itom to be balloted for later in tho evening. All of tho other itema wero adopted by a vivo voco voto as follow«: ■Janitors1 salaries, $2,GOO; fuel, $1,500; free text books, $2 ,0 0 0 ; construction and repairs, $1,500; miscellaneous, $2,200. The itom of $7,400 for teachers’ salaries was qIbo carried later by o vote of 207 in favor and <18 against.

Tho terms of T. Frank Appleby, Washing­ton White, Dr. Ella Frentis Upham and Lewis ,RaInear, members of the. Board of Education, oxpired this year.- They wore all named for re-election, with tho addi­tional names of Claude V. Guerin, D. H. Wyckoff and 0. 0. Clayton. Mr. Clayton was not present on this occasion, and his name was used without authority, and al­though a request was mado to have it with­drawn, tho people did not.at all understand that ho was not a candidate and several votes were cast in his favor. The following is tho result of tho ballot: Washington White, 250; T, Frank Appleby, 244; Lewis Rainear, 213; O. V. Guerin, 165; Dr. Ella P . Upham, 144; D. H, Wyckoff, 102;. 0 . 0. Clayton, 39. Mr. 0. V. Guerin re­ceived 21 votes moro than Mrs..Upham, and thcTcfoTO takes. her position in the Board, leaving its membership the same as last year with that exception.

Resolutions asking tho Board of Education to call a meeting to vote upon appropria­tions for new school buildings in various, parts of the district wore bb follows : Ocean Grove, $ 1 0 ,0 0 0 ; Bradley Beach, $15,000; West Asbury Park, $9*0 0 0 ; Hamilton, $0,500; West Grove, $10,000.. Tho new Board will meot nnd organize on

Monday afternoon next, when this question will receive consideration. The now Board will probably determino just what sum is required to construct suitablo buildings in tho localities named,. and then fix tho amount to bo voted for in accordance there' with. It is probable that an election for this purpose may bo called sometime within the next thirty days. .’

.which was conducted by flnrry T. Rówe. The presence of the singers mudo tho Sab­bath services on this occnsion rather unique, and they ■ appeared to be very greatly en­joyed by the various congregations.

A recent decision of the Court of Errors, and Appeals unfavorably aiTeets almost every school district in Now Jersey. This, decision declares that tho bonds are invalid from tho fact that tho money was not used entirely for tho purposo of constructing school buildings, but a portion of tho funds were diverted for blackboards, ,/urnituro or other accessories. Tho decision resulted from a • content which emanntod at Crnn-. bury, N. J . j whcro bonds to the amount of $0 ,0 0 0 .were voted for to construct a now school-house,; when.a poition of these funds were used to make the school ready for occu­pancy, the taxpayer carried the caso to tho courts alleging that the placing of furniture was not a part of tho school building, and that therefore the boridB if issued would bo Illegal. .

William R. Hagerman, tho late overseer of the poor, turned over his books arid ac­counts to His successor, John G.

V ■' •/

A j>etition was presented in behalf of tho property holders at Bradley Beach, asking •that, that territory be set off as a separate fi re d iat rict, but n o action was token j as township counsel, Mr. Patterson, stated that the committee had no jurisdiction.

Sinc.e the death of Mrs. Cathurlno Bab­cock, which oceurrcd about a fortnight ago in Asbury Park,much bus been written and spoken in regard to the eircumstances sur­rounding her death that might lead one to suspect foul play. Tho hasty manner in which preparations for her buriul were made caused her friends to suggest that an in-- quiry os to tho cause of her death be instlr luted, which resulted in Prosceutor Ivins conducting n thorough investigation of the case lost Tuesday. The Prosecutor endeav­ored to find sufficient evidence to warrant the exhuming of Mrs. Babcock’s body, which now lies buried in tho cemetry at. Hillsdale, N. Y. After interviewing a num-. ber of i>crsons, nmong wiiorn wero Mrs. E. R.

The Atlantic HIghlanda Journal calls the attention o f wheelmen to tho law In forco which provides for the erection of guido. posts oil tho publlo roads and highways: in tlio State. It appears that this Act makes it the duty of overseers of .highways' to’report to the Township Committee the places where such guide ‘posts are necessary, and that the Township,Committee upon receiv­ing such a report shall cause the signs to bo erected, and in eiiso of a failure to do so tho sum of $ 1 0 shall bo forfeited and paid into the county treasury. The Chief Consul of.tho Now Jersey Division of the L. A.

v f - i n . , ; ;Thobnll of iho uowmagnzino.riilo is

shaped and nfaed like an , inch nml n half of loud pencil. The fovcb of it i? diabolical. I t penetrates ;t*2 inches» of solid oak. I t bores through throe plains, of thrco-quarter iron For lin inch ;rpart and ouly then ceases to'- peuetrate lie- causo it is melted and vaporized. . The first man killed with it in'Amcriea— n

*: prisoner at Fori irheridjin—;vvas shot on thfc x\m at thvvittstanco of 50 yards. The

:, bolt Ininst bis sku ll,.passed ihrough a - live bak oifcht inches . in diameter and : buried - itse lf' three feet in a clay bank. -It is the most deadly small missile th a t;

yfevor. split the air. . I t carries hvo miles ^;nud.kills wherever it kisses.;*

'•'•For 500 yards this flying' death pin : rises bnt.3 *1‘ 10 fee.t from a rifiljt line. ■ The.vertical range for a ll this distance' is only from tho groin to tho forehead

• of a inan. Thom issilo is so light.that .: v tlio soldier easily carries 100 rounds in ■ ; -liis belt; Tlio uiapazino of thoriile. holds .. fivo rounds that nro emitted in Ihreo sec-.

onds in ri horrid death spit at tho close .o t the charge.- Ko mortal foe can stand

• beforo tho blast. The balls of oar old , guns flew up in* a trajectory qyor thebeads of iho intervening enemy and. dropped in spots, doubtfully and spent, ■on a distant line; but this mortal lead

Vsting goes straight and kills .all tho . way, A man at tho distance of a milo : rind a half is. visible only as a mouse,

bht the lit tie bolt , finds aud pierces him. So much for the work of thoopen tield.

The great guas of the modern ship and fortress are still more terrible.. The new i3 inch and 10 inch rifled cannon ;

. of Great Britain throw bolts that aie’ ir- ; resistible. The.rango is 12.miles and. more. A fleet armed .with, tlieso guns

. anchored otT .Coney Island can'/.shell ; Grant#s tomb. Ono of these monstcr en­

gines can drop its vomit i.nt'o the gnt of Broadway below city, hall and send Trin ity church and Wnll street howling after the ghost of Tweed. A shot out of. one of these hell throats w ill .go through

,tli© side of litiy Amorican man-of-war as ' though the plating \vero a cockle. It is- high time that&tmnel .1. TiIdea's essay on “ Coast Defences*.' should be rovised

• and enlarged. ' ’ .-.•*/■' v . ‘: The general effect of this is a prophecy ' of the end of war. That inonster seems

to bo about to■ devour his- own vitals./ The indications are that be w ill soon £4 galp down hot only his spleen, but also v . his heart anti liver.

The progress of modern warfare Inis been marked by alternate improvements in . offensive and defensive weaponry. It Jj as been the eon lost .of projectile and armor. F irst invent an'irresistible inis-

. sile ;md. then aii impenetrable plate. It : —is aii enlarged . example of tho conten­

tion between ‘the..burglar'anti the safe-, '/maker. Tho burglar wants to fore.e his

way in, and the safemaker wants, to . keep Imu out. On tlw wludo, tlm prog-• res of the two has been commensurate.

Now the barglar has had it and now• the safemaker. * For awhilo .otl'cusive •weapons Uavo Vwen inosv improved, ami then for awhile tho. means of defen so have been perfected. Wo have had also tho oft'eiisivo-defonsivo paradox, as. i l ­lustrated in our existing marvelous liavy; that cost the American people last

• year more than $3S.000,UU0 . and is not worth a cent. This is a hard sayiug,

.bu t' worthy of all acceptation. Tho writer would fain withhold it. flo

; would- uot utter such a judgment if he lmd .a fear for his countrj* or bis conn*- try ’s honor. But bo regards war as tho remaining goblin of the dark ages and all preparation for war as a mere dis­p lay of that ignorance which refuses to recognizo moral force ami justice as the. ouIy: invulnerable panoply and.shield o f: n uationl ; . •’

• A t the present time science makes the ^ greatest advances in projectile?— that is,

‘in improving tho means of destruction. Sc ion co, in this age, is in her destruc­tive, iiotber protective, mood. The dis­covery of irresistible explosives has'been correlated With the invention of -en*

'. giuery which would bavp paralyzed the imagination only 50 years ago. The im ­provement of the means of attack and destruction Inis been so. overwhelming tbfit w a r has reached the verge.of ab­surdity. Thought has so combined witli tho physical animosities of the world that those who wield tho agents of de­struction are obliged to pautio before pulling the lanyard and laugh at tho Criminal clim ax!

Ho who is ablo to destroy tho enemy :. jh ;c(1 not do,it. Haying the pqwer to an­

nihilate,.it becomes a crime, to exercise it. The only rational struggle, whether

' individual, social or 'national, is that which leaves to cach of tho combatants the opportunity to survive, There must, bo a chanco of winning and a chance of exit. War has como to the complexion that one army;gets into the power of an­other by strategy. That done, nothing remains but for tho army in advantage to see tho signal and fire. But there is no need of tiring when tho cueiny is

• beaten ere the blast come. Warfaro has ..tbus risen through the agency of scieuco

to the level, of thought. The battle is wpn on the.piano of life and not'on the

.plane of death. It looks as though bru­tality aud violence were about to vanish

• iu the wiud of geuius. The reigu of forco is about to cease by its own lim i­tations. God Is tired Of war.

I'rejoico that it/ii»so. I rejoice that war has reached the roductio ad absurd* nm. I am glad w ith a great gladness tbat the era has dawued iii which jjustic« and truth and righteousness must at

all nations liavo prepared for universal war, as if mutual .destruction wore the natural cud of a ll races;.at the very time when every state in Christendom

i stands bristling like a porcupine toward every other in the world ; at tho very tiino when from a ll horizons tho slant­ing array of flashing bayonets is seen— tho edict of science goes forth proclaim­ing an armistice. • •

..To prevent further slaughter of men by meu, God bos taken his usual meth­od of indirection. War has overdone his own game aud can go nd further. Chess is no longer entertaining when the first move mates iho enemy. As man by knowledge becomes omnipotent, warfare by ignorance becomes absurd. Battle is. only an Irish ball wbeu- each army de­stroys the other before tho fight begins., Teh thousand men armed with the mag- aziue ritle have a milliou cartridges iu their belts, and every missile w ill k ill for two miles. The other side so armed,. it is only a questionwhich army shall get the first fite. Having obtained tho advantage so as to got the first fire, it is: not necessary, to fire at all.. When firearms wero introduced, the

descendants of tho heroic Crusaders were scandalized out of- the field with the thought that famous knights could be killed by boors at tho distance of 30 yards. -What was called mauiy war- far'o was shamed'out of existence with gunpowder.. After six centuries the discovery , of the means of destroying an army ere-it can show its valor dem­onstrates the absurdity of a conflict-

j in which, human courage- is unequally [ matched w ith the forces of nature.! The perfection of, the means of destroy- j ing life removes the reason for do­

ing it.'- The triumph of science in organ­izing tho ageucies of,national murder is the certain token of the end. of it. God as a physician cares diseases in this way. J ohn CLAUK-RiDiwm.

fSpfolaJ C’orpi'Siiiin«1riic;<*. I V Tkento.v, Mar cl 1 10. —Thu nos fc worst thing to being in the. minority is to havo too Inrgo a majority. This Is one of tho first axioms.In thb gnitlolionk of tlio polit­ical leader. The Kepufolienns oro cxporl- onclng-.its truth just now In bundling'tlio : nssombly, whoro thoy liavo a majority of 20 to rejoice over or to .contend with, na tho ease may he. . The lenders desired to havo tho legislature wind up. its sesslon on Friday next,, but tho assemblymen hnvo conoluded that they must ho consulted In 0 )6 matter and tlmt they w ill not bo ready till sorao timo .noxt woek. Tho loaders aro corisldornbly disturbed In consorjuenco, as the prolongation of tho session may glvo tlso to bickerings and complications over rj number of bills that, It was hoped, would bo disposed of by innotlon. Already tho nsscinblymcn havo got into a snarl by turning down certain of the committees which declined to report nnticorporatlon measures, nnd this week Is expected to de­velop several other fights along the samu

■line. . . . ' . . . . . .-The llorougH Laws.

Tho chief reason assigned by tho assem­bly, howover, for delaying the legislative session Is to glvo time for action upon tho proposed revision of the borough laws. ' A recent decision of tho court of errors and appeals upset tho government of a number

. of thcso places, aud thero àro said to bo fully 10Ü of them working with uncertain jurisdiction., Most of. them aro in tho northern part of tho state, and tiio seaside resorts nro' also nlTccted. The who!o sub­ject Is full of complications, owing to tho diversity of the legislation on the statute books In relation to different boroughs,, and tho work of the commission In ciiargo is no slight ono, to franio a statute which will enable all to operato legally nnd to re? move tho oloml. which has settled .upon many Uttlo communities in consetjuonco of tho patchwork system of laws enacted in tho past,- Tho design is to dlvido tho boroughs Into tJireo classes and to provide means for wiping out tho bonded indebt-. Bdncas., Tho sonators think it, would bo

. wiser to pass a temporary act and allow tho commission In chargo to sit during the

. IcglBlativo recess andatthnir leisure frame a comprehensive bill for presentation to tho jcgislaUiro next winter. . The houso seems obdurate, however, arid hnandoptcd a reso: luiion again fbr final adjournment on March 2A. Tlio senate will probably con­cur. ■

Senator Voorhees succeeded on Tuesday In hayibg the senate pass his bill abolish­ing tho oflleoof lay judge in counties after Mnrch 31. Tho bill was among tho enrli- ist Introduced this winter, but hung ilro :ill this \vcbk. Senator A'oorhees, In advo­cating tho measurer claimed that It would 3avo the taxpayora annually $10,000. The Dnal voio was 15 for passa go nnd 4 against (Daly, Ward, Williams, Stiiats). '

Cutting .l>oua 11 Official .Salarie». ‘Thero is more talk at the presont timo

foqcernlng Assomblyman Walling’s salary reductiou bill than any other upou tho cal-. »ndar. Assomblymnn Walling, has been

.lucccssful In getting his bill through tho assombly, by a very substantial voto, and has crystallized public sentiment so strongly In its favor tliut It may pass tho ttmnio as well in spito of tho vigorous op­position of tho ofllco holding class. Tho fact is that there has been a demand for a long timo, especially, from tlio rural sec­tions, in favor uf grcntor economy, in.ofil- clol salaries, and wheu- a bill looking to that end got upon the assembly calondar

• partisan considerations were cast aside-for the once. • ■ . , ■ .

Mr. Walling’s bill provides for a hori- rontal reduction of 25 per cent upon tho surplus over ?3,00U in aH salaries. - The opponents of tho measure contend, first, that it is unconstitutional, ina’sm.uoh as it affects tho present terms of certain ofll- ciais, and secondly that whiip greater economy may bu wise .tho pending bill'is Indiscriminate and applies equally to.olll- Dials who nro overpaid and to others who earn every penny they get. The discus­sion of tho latter objection in interesting,; It is insisted, for instance, that the stato .treasurer and the state comptroller should not havo a dollar deducted from .their salaries of 10.000 a year respectively, ow­ing to their.-Ojierous duties aiul tremen- . tlous responsibility. The treasurer gives bonds,for $UGO,OUO, to secure which from a regular surety company would cost him |l,500 a year. Besides ho handled’ last year for the- staîe over t l 1,000',000. I t Is

• further held that New Jersey, belug in no financial distress, should bo willing to pay such salaries as will invite the highest.or: dor of ability to tlio management of her niTnirs. •

New JeM fy u Liberal l'Ayiimitcr.Tho advocates of tho bill contend of

courso that upder the now regulation no­body w ill bo poorly paid..They claim that the salaries and wage« of the citizens of tho stato hàvo declined, through tho strin­gency of the times, and that thore has been a grave depreciation in property val­ues. .Therefore to erjunllzo matters ofllolul salaries should come down too. . I t is held by ex-Judgo Walling that Ne\v Jersey has been led into n policy of extravagance for a stato of its size, nnd to prove this ho points out that only two other states— New York and Pennsylvania, both very largo and wealthy states—pay their gov­ernors 110,000 a year. Thu great stato of Massachusetts, a model In many respects, pays ouly $5,000 a year, anil oven with the proposed reduction tho salary of New* Jer*

. eey.-3 chief , executive will still bo $8.250.As, a further contrast'between Mnssachu*.

I t is helievod that if. tlio hill passes it will affect a saving of <jver $!ttl0 ,0t!0 to tho state, but its opponents ar^uo that the pooplo individually or in 'their communi- ties will rcceivo »10 diroet benefit.thereby, as ovon. now thero is no :stato tax upon citizens. Tho bill will also affect sheriffs, county clerks and other .county odicers who recaivo salaries, but as almost nil of thcso aro paid In foes, tho saving hero will not.be considerable. . ‘ .

Trollop* Versus S t r u m ItnailN. •Tho steaiii railrondn scored, a point

against the trolleys in the senato Tuesday, whon tiio bill, prohibiting tho latter from carrying freight camo.up oil* final passage. An amondmont had been offered to-nllow this privilege to tho trollyy roads whonover they were able to oiitaln tho conscnt of ono-half U10 property ownors along tholr lino and also tho consent of tho municipal body, but this amendment .was defehtcd, ami its dofeat inndo; Senator Bradley of Monmouth anv opponent of the bill.: Hd. said tho pcoplo along thè sliorù front’ were at tlio - mercy.of tlio Steam. roads, which ciiarged excess ivo .freight tari its,; and,; un­less they were.to bo givon tholr own option in dealing with tho trojJoys, ho could not favor tlio bill. Senator- Johnson, on tho other ha ml. claimed that-tho trollby cor?

; iMiratitms were imposing on the public by ; obtaining a free right of way, whllo the .steam roads bad to pay well for* ovory foot

! of ground, èhòy uscd. Tho state was spend- ‘! lug $100,00u a year for stone.roads, and as i soon as an improved road of this charactor ! was built along came a trolley company •with a request to lay its tracks without

i any contribution to tho cost of tho stone road. Senator ritokcs thought the matter

I ought to bo loft forseparato municipalities j to deal witli-as they saw.host. The trolley ! roads, lie' held, \voro .of great, benellt in j rural sections and did pny taxes. Senator j;Johnson retorted that they, paid only one-1 I tenth of 1 per cent on tliolr capital ¿tock, j while tho steam roads wertì paying- the ! stato $1.500,000 yearly. Tho- bill iinnlly ■ ! passed 12 to S. - It now goes to tho govern

. off, is retained in the body,- nnd as it cannot go any place else, more or less of it gets into the blood. That’s constipation. It is such a-wonder­fully simple thing that people do not regard it seriously;-.. They let it run.on, let it grow worse, become chronic, and show itself all. over the body in fifty ways before they con­sider it important. GonsUpation causes nine-tenths of-all human ailments. Its first symptoms do not seem very serious, but even they arc very disagreeable. A few. of them are sour stomach, flatulence, heart-- burn, distress after e£#.nff, foul breath, coatcd tongue, dizziness,-palpitation of the heart, sick and bilious headaches, general lassitude and debility. \VhctVanyof these symptoms show themselves, you should

; immediately take Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pel­lets, according to directions. They arc tiny, sugar-coated granules, made on purpose to cure constipation. They do;this perfectly nnd quickly, and they are the only prepara­tion in thc'world that will do it. There are plenty of medicines that will give relief as lonff a? you keep on taking them, but you can’t'stop. They don’t cure; they.give merely temporary -relief.. Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets giye immediate relief and; produce a permanent cure. ;

Tho Krio raUrond Is still very nnieh in ovidenco In legislativo <lI««eiis->ionii. There

; is à bill over In tho stmnto which presum­ably permitted, tho Krio tb leaso tho Xew York and Greenwood I.nke rail road .but which after passa go. there was reported to. contain a clausa.oxtendlng mòro ektenslve. privileges. The senntors thereupon do- ‘ Cllued to let tho bill go to thenssembly till It was satisfactorily amended. This.was etteotcd nn Tvtesday» It now gnus to tho house. Tho ruling of tho 'Krio-lobbyist <»ff the sonato iloòr hist week Is another Inci­dent adding to tho disfavor In which the coinpaiiy-now stands before the leglsla-' tttre. : . .

Fieni lug’s track .elevation bill gavb oc­casion t(» a discussion In the nsseiiibly Tuesday and waa eventually ordered to a third reading after tho adoption , of an • amondment to roquiro the Central road, ns woll as the Pennsylvania, to elevate Its tracks In Newark.

A now track elevation bill was intro-" duccd In the senato this week by Mr. Voorhees, providing that throo coinmls- sloners shall ho appointed to prepare plans, etc.,'upon appllcatlou therefor by tho gov­erning board In first class cities. Tho. rail­road is to pay the cost of elevation and the city tho cost;of nccessary grade alterations.

. .Making It Hot I'or Corporation*.Tho assembly Is evidently taking the bit

In .Its teeth with rospoct to corporation * matters. ' It this Week passed noverai anti- corporation measures, including-ono to limit to ii cents tho fare on ¿11 trolley rods in Hudson: and Kssex counties. Argu­ments wore made to show that such a bill w ill retard tho erection of suburban roads, nnd that it Is ’ improper to ask companies to chargo only & cents wlioro a travoJor Is carried many miles into tho country, Tho some.’day Mr. Allen gavo notlco of a jno* tion to rcllovo the commltteo on municipal corporations of tho antitrust bill. The as­sembly also passed tho bill requiring all street railway companies to have ail cars properly heated and ventilated. Another measuro. requiring trolley companies to light all the- sitrcets through which they pass was a llttlo too much for oven tho anticorporation mood of thè assembly and was killed, 4 to U0. .

Another corporation measure'hanging fi re u pon which * great in terest s ha n g is the pipo line bill. It gives the .United States OH Pipe Line company power to lay pipes through the.state to tide water. Of course tiio .Standard Oil people are in op­position, but tho knowledge of this fact rather lends favor to tho bill u£ a measure hostile to monopoly. Tlio senate com­mittee on railroads, and canals granted a hearing Monday in which ex-Judge J . Frauk Fort of Newark npoko at length against tho bill. Ho said ho did not ap­pear, for the Standard Oil company, but for tho I)., L A: W. railroad. Ho caution­ed tho’ legislature to go slow In voting away such an enormous franohlso as tho now company doslred and pointed out the tepnclous hold which they would havo on tho stato if the bill passed. .Ho Insisted that a tax of 5 cents on every 500 barrels of oil transported should bo paid to tho state, and thut the statutes.of Now York, Pennsylvania and Indiiiua In the matter of similar grants should bo carefully studied beforo any enactmont was ratified. Counsel for tho United.States Oil company' responded, shying they were ready to ac­cept proper amciubnont.

Thó s.ennte on- Tuesday spent an hour and a half In discussing tho bill prohibit­ing tlio uso of coloring inatter in ple<»j) margarino to givo it theappoarance of but­ter.'- An atuondment to make it apply to "raiizid. butter” was defeated by tho advo­cates of tlio bill.- Soveral other amend­ments wero.oiTered, but they wero-defeated after a »»harp struugte, and the bill was ordered to third reudiUg. Senator Parry of Burlington ia makJug a hard fight for tho bill and hopes to get It through.

After tho plans for the «rent Auditorium had boon finnlly decided upon uud the build­ing woa in course of construction, tho Ocean Grove Times published nn ortjelo regarding its adaptability for the ‘ accommodation of big conventions, and suggested that no more suitable, or. appropirate city ihari Ocean

. Grove coiild be found for holding a session of tho General Conference of the Methodist Church. ; ;• * /./ : /

Although but little has been said in rein* tion to the subject in the past few months, tho governing powers havo had it in mind and the. Association at Its annual meeting appointed ircommittee to take the matter in charge and see that a proper invitation was extended*, guaranteeing that everything possible would bo done for tho entertain­ment and comfort of tho people who might be biovight. hero by such an event.

. It is evident also that nearly all the mem­bers of tho various Conferences in this part of tho country would approve this selection. At the bosh ion of the Philadelphia Confor- oncc which closed, on Wednesday a resolution was unanimously adopted requesting tho delegates to tho Cleveland assemblage to ex­tend an invitution to the Generat Confer­ence to hold its session of-1000 ot Ocean Grove, and it is ovidont that a. proper repre­sentation of the excellent facilitierf. afforded liy the twin cities to care for such a gather­ing is all.that is required to insure its suc- • cess.;: Friends of Ocean. .Grove, wherever loen- ,ted,’ may be able to assist in making the project u success by 0 timely word to the delegates who will attend tbe Clovelund Con­ference.'-

. Attention, is called to the annual state, tncnt of the Board of Elucrttion o f Neptune , township published in another column. This report is sufficiently comprehensive to afford all who are interested u knowledge

.of tho resources and expenditures of tho District for educational purposes. It costs .money to maintain a proper and adequate school, .system but who can compute the .benefits ,:that result from the investment? Tho.measure of pros erity enjoyed by.any community may bo accurately guaged by the efficiency of tho sysein of edueattion it

' supports, and on evasion of obligation due to the coming generation in this direction wields a direct and important influence in

. retarding the growth and udvaneemont of a place too short-sighted to realIzo that the

; children who are receiving instruction now will bo the bono and slnow of the country a

; few yeurs hence, und. the more efficient the education they now receive :thc belter will they bo'enabled to discharge the duties they may be called upon to assume..

Tho vaiious resolutions submitted ut tho school meeting Tuesday evening asking for appropriations for tho construction of new buildings in different purls of. the district

■; show that the people aroawako to the neeos- r sities of tho occasion. Tho Board uf Edu­cation to which these resolutions were re­ferred will carefully consider the require­ments of tho several localities, determine tho

• amount of money needed to provide suit­able buildings, and will then call .u spe-ial meeting and give the people un oppor­

tunity, to voto for dr nguinst the proposed measures. Whatever,appropriation is asked

. for tills purpose now should bo largo enough to meet the requirements.in all parts of tho

'^township, giving each locality properly con­structed and ventilated sehqol houses of sufficient capacity to meet all dcmandtfJor some years to come.

' Tho appointment of Rev. Joseph G. Reed to tho; pastorship of SL Paul’s Church ini Ocean. G rove meets with tho hearty appro-. Nation of the .official members as well as tho congregationi While. It Is'/probablo that comparâtivoly few of t|io people of thisvieinity nro personally ocqauintod with Mr. Reed, still from tho very fliittorlng recom­mendations and reports that have been re- ice ived there can bo no question but that ho wlli fully meet jtlio requirement a oi tho pe­culiar. conditions attached , tfl-the adminis-' tratIon of church affairs. in this vicinity.

New Brunswick» N./J.; March.10* 1800-v Editor of .Times-Record-^ /;’ '■■■.-'•••'V'. Dear Sir—As one of. the regular summer residents of Ocean Grove, I.view with great apprehonsion tlio introduction óf a trolley line j tit Ocean "Grove. ; V-’ y

Looking at the mutter, from' almost every standpoint, a trolley Irne is not desirable. In theVfirst .place the streets. .are too narrow and in'the slimmer when they are'crowded -with women and children, the danger to life and limb would bo very great. • . ‘ \ :

I nbtico in the article published In the Titnes-itecord of March 1*1, 1800, that, tlio platt: that, nieeta ;wlih moat favor ie a road built and owned by tho Aasociation, or fey some;; one in close connection with the or- ganizutibn in order/to insure its. perfect ._contToi.'-''\-V-’; > .vThe experience vof other.: cities such às Hrapklyny New.'.YbrkiL-PÌilIodelpHfa^ Tren­ton, Camdén; and niady . others, where tlio trolley has been introduced, has been to in-- creaso . the death rate of the residents at an olarming ràtei; Can thó Ocean Grove Aeso- ciatipn, 'Whioli is how labóring Tunde'r: great financial burdens, afford to pay out large sums in damages for possible accident and loss of life, and;carry on tho necessary liti­gai ion. that always ..follows tho. introduction of tho trolley? < v.\{. : ¡' V : ■ ; ,;. -

Then ‘ againV Ocean Grove has à reputa- tidni; and deservedly . so, of/ being tho .one place in ‘tills section of the country where n business, man can leave Ids wife and family and' feel that/they are ‘perfectly safe, but. with' the introduction of ; the trolley this :woti|d;,nU;be'change(3 and we/know not how, soon some little lives will be crusehd out or some lift le body m angled and defo’rmedfor; life, :rind!brlng gorrpvv to tlie hearts or many, fond parenfs;and.friends . Although the streota of Ocean Grove aro harrow they have always been considered protty, but what a change would take placo and all their beauty marred by tho erection of tlie unsightly poles and tho notwork óf overhead wires which would necessarily be erected.;

Anot\\or very important point for tho Ocean-Grove Association to consider is whether such a limited lino as proposed, would be of sufficient importance either us a Bourcu -of revenue- or aa n;convenience to the public as.to warrant its construction.

My own opinion is that such a road will not-pay, and I am euro it is not wanted by tho summer visitors. As a friend of Ocean Grove I desire to place myself on record as being decidedly opposed Io the introduction

.of the trolley at that place.Yours truly, >V. H. T. REEVES.

Minnedu, Flo., March I.To the editor of tho Ttinee-Record:—

Having spent seven winters in Kloridu I can. endorse • the statement of Mr. W. H. Stokes in favor.of the Appopca inouutuin climate, for only four days has the sun been entirely, hidden during the winter. Lakes Mirtneola* Louise, Minnehaha and Cherry make a continuous chain of lakes for 2o miles oh tho summit of tho Appopca moun. tains. This chain of lukes and their envj. ronments arc the highest in the State. They are located ubout an equal distance between the ocean and the gulf. Tho climate is pe­culiarly uduptcd to the requirements of those having but a remnant of constitution. On the banks of thego lakes are thousands of acres of garden rogotables growing during tho winter, and tho beautiful effect of the fields of living green aro visiblo for a dls? tancc of 25 miles. Tho orange and other trees that wero injured by the frost ore re­turning to life, nnd there is a. prospect for on excellent crop of vegetables and growers ore jierfeetly satisfied with, the present prices.

Wishing tho Ocean Grove pajier great suc­cess, I remain, Yours very truly,

In the Houso yesterday Mr. Wildes intro­duced a bill thut “ provides that nil persona who pick huckleberries shall do so with their hands, The law will supply a long felt want—tho gathering of huckleberries with a reaper and binder is a menace to American induces. Very properly the bill.wa8 referred to the committee on Gamo. nnd Fish, who have at present one of tho most unique collections of bills in cxistoncc. When tho law is finally passed it will prob­ably bo amended so that tho open seaeon for

. huckleborrles Is from Dcc. 1 to Fob. 1, and it Is not lawful to kill or have in possession any female huckleberry for three years. It would also bo a good idea to prohibit shoot­ing hucklobettlcs with a drag net If the Now Jersey Loigalature knows as much about huckleberriee as it docs about game laws the huckleberry will bo a thoroughly

rotected bird.—Higbtstown Gazette. •

New Jersey., Its Colon in! and Revolutionary past forma one o f the most promt newt pages ! in -Àmorìenri history, as everybody knows, nnd the ninnai» 'of. fiubserjuent. ¿vents up to the present time- are rlie with glowing records of New Jersey ’s part in the-XuUon’t* chronicle^.' * This was the field of Washing­ton’s most- in)|iorlftnt military operations during "the Hines' that tried men's souls,’.’

• arid from this particular Stute, duyiug.lhc late war of the rebellion went out the bravest man who took part in that conflict of brave men—-Gen. Phil. Kearny. . •

Ranking aVnong the smaller .State? as to its size, and claiming no special cmincneo aa "to wealth; or political importance,. }t is nevertheless a fact-that in the march of

. events New Jersey has always managed and still rr.anngcs to cut a conspicuous figure aud io keep prominently in the public eye.

AVIicii one mentions Maine, òr hears it ipcntioncd, the word calls up visions of vast pino- forests mid wilderness lakes with un­pronounceable names. New Hampshire suggests granite bills and nióuntnin resorts.

• Massachusetts, is the land of culture, of.nest- ling villages, and neatly kept home*?. Ken­tucky stands for fair Women and brave men,, thoroughbred horses and unstinted whiskey. California has a golden hi-lo.and a glorious climate to identify it ;. and 60 on through the entire list of Stntes, each one is asyn-* ohym, as it were, for some striding local' feature or features. There are thoughts of “ Jersey justice’’ and Jersey “ farm truck,” of red clay soil, Olid the best roads in Amer­ica connected w ith this little commonwealth ft am which I vet He, but U\o one pte-oim- nent and overshadowing significance' or as­sociation Mew Jersey has in everybody’s mind holds relation to her oxceptionul eea-’ coast attractions. No other State in the Union is so favorably situated 'or so splen­didly endowed for seaside resort ¡purposes.. Lying be.tween the two largest cities in the East, and; the two most populous States in the couniry, thè“ New Jersey, coast is moro directly nceesVible to a greater number ot

■ people thon nny seashore- territory in the world. But its patronage is hot confined to Hs own citizens and those of "Kew York and Pennsylvania., The whole country, recog­nizes arid concedes-that the JeWey beaches

1 are. incomparably the best on this continent, and.everyjpart o; the United States, and in-

. deed, of. the Canadian pominion, sends its quota of summer visitors here. -.The expla­nation of this superiority and universal pal-, roiiagc • is very simple. It is Only at this particular point on, the, Atlantic seaboard tliut. proper topographical and climatic con­ditions prevail for safe and comfortable, bathing. It is not too much to say that the whole New England coast {is loo rocky, and

: tho water along gaid coast too cold to fur­nish anywhere such facilities and advantages aa tho . su in in or, outdoor bulher looks and lungs-for. At various places, notably Nar- ragansett Pier and Newport,.there are fairly good . beaches, but the defects ubo ve stated militate.more or less against even these, tivci resorts; as regards their attractiveness in the way of surf . bathing. The. southern sea- couat from .Virginia down is not only too fiat,; marshy and malarious arid, the ocean

' undertow too treacherous to evèr offer prom­ise" of popularity, but the climate is of courso too hot and enervating to warrant giving that' sect ion any considerai ion as a possible or available seaside tcrirtory for; summor bathing. So there you arc; it is New Jersey or nothing, i f ‘.you. live on this Western Continent, and want to spend the. hot monthe .where you can fully enjoy salt water bathing under favorabio conditions. Remembering then this-simple explanation of New Jersey’s peculiar geographical posi­tion which essentially crowns her the. one and only ideally jicrfcct seashore resort, we have, it. is riot- dlflieult to understand.her supreme popularity.in this regard; and t)io faci, that in public appreciation sho stands for to-day, and w ill increasingly stand “ for hereafter, the 'most superb, seaboard sum-

;met climate and summer bathing in Amer­ica.. Fro'tn; Sandy Hook to Capc’May-r-tìie es

t|-eme northern to the extreme southern boundary of tho State—every foot of the dis- tunco (ubout .175 miles) faces' the open, broad.Atlantic, and every foot, too, of this. Song coastline is a riuiootli, sandy beach, with background of imposing bluffs, or beautiful prairie, verdure clad or forest dccked, und' dotted at short intervals with innumerable

! summer resort settlements varying from a small cluster of unpretentious cottages', to such oxtensivo seaside cities as Asbury Park

*. or Atlantic City with their hundreds of botole and, thousands of houses.

But a . few years ago Long Branch and Capò May were "the only full-fledged resorts on. tho New Jersey shore. So promptly, howover, have our quick-witted countrymen awakened to the pregnant fact that thero is only one stretch of ecu coast in tbe'Onitcd States available for really good bathing dur­ing our heated summor. season, there is to­day. little orna land left untakon or unset­tled upon, between Seabright and 13arnegat ; and from the latter point'to the caj>0B ot tlie JDelawarb ihc- same statement* in n slightly i noil i fled, sen se, will correctly apply.

, Whatever, is exceptionally good 'in this world Is, as- a rule, exceptionally scarce, and whatever is exceptionally scareo is ex­ceptionally valuable, and universally desired of,tho sons of men; whence, it follows llmt

; this limited area of superlative coast land along New Jersey’s sea girt shore if fast bp iug gobbled up and appropriated for sum- trior residence purposes by sagacious people who realize that* at is ù case of getting in

now, or of.finding! in tho near fniure.thero wiien't aiiougli Jersey.to go around among the many vwouid^bd;.owners of. a • stiip of water, front alQng the llncsi '.beaches «ri'tho Atlantic; seaboard. : Tho . developnient of this coast', iiaa . bcen epinetii i• i m » ryelous. From a burrei\;tract of Band in i HTO. desti- tute of population or eultiyntion,. tliC wliolo territory between' Niiveslnk Jlighaiids and Cape ;May is' now cither brautifully, iin-. provi.nl and crowded with summer residences and flourishing resorts, or is rapidly being laid out .for settlement. .‘ A large number of thriving lowns have grown U P in, .the coast counties» of New ' Jersey-during the past twenty years as u direct result of the influx of summer guewts, and many of these places 'maintain, a permanent population now-the year round. ..From ten. to fifteen thousand people remain -through the winter -at Afcbury Park ami. at. Long Branch,• while perhaps double that number stay at Atlantic City. In the summer it is safe to say ns-o rough estimate, that tully a million strangers from nil parts o f; tlio conntry visit the coast of New'Jersey;to enjoy it.8 ;urtequal!qd attrae. i 11pria as .tlie seas 1 ile''paradiso., of Americoi ■ prie-' biuidred. thqusm peeplo crowd intoAsbtiry^^during/JrilyandAugu^ •hiindsVv'nB '.mnnyvatoNv.' iliemseivea Mviiy in tho • hotel« aiuV'boording-housea' across tiiu 'lake ui this .resort—-Ocean Grove. These figures >v|ll very properly preface the stale-

.ment that/ Asbury Park and pecan Grove arc ".far -and away tho most snecsseful sum­mer resorts in the world, if you seek for the reason why. it is readily found in the explanatory fact that these two places hoid the unique distinction of being the only re­sorts of any pretension that specially, and I might, say- exclusively,.cater to tho great

-middle class of the community.

.mer result i:v the country—Asbury Park— but it actually arid truthfully claims to have within .its borders the best winter resort. There is no doubt whatever that Lakewood, N.

George Washington was a mountain man! There syere other great men, but they wqre foothills and spurs to loftier Heights.. He was pre-eminent ! His loftiness was not as' sumedj but innute—higher born and higher bred. He whs a lofty boy—too lofty to dis­obey proper authortiy.

He stood in the.tempest of disloyalty im moved, and when his army was poverty

stricken he encouraged his men and trusted in their. God.* Like the mountains ho eri* dured us seeing who is . invisible.

Tho preaciier’s thoine was “ Destiny: .or,, the Choice of Good or Evil, and.the ttcsultsthat Flow Therefrom.” This qucBllon Mr. Yat- man -enforced by teaching and examples, followed by an iifter meeting, at which there was a large' number of intjulrers. During the service Miss Riminer sang.“ Ilo Wipes the Tear from Every Eye,” and “ Shall ! or You?" «A wide interest is now being taken in illeso united mission services.

Yatinan werb . continued yesterday, He addressed a farewell inebting of business inen at half-past twel ve. in the roofiiS; bf thd National ABSoéiàtibn. It was the largest yet held. The subject was “ Principles that ;Rulò in a drbodMan’s.Life,” iind wnich Mr. Y.at- irian (lotlued; as follows:. 1; To trust and hope, in God for. salvation .here and hore.- afier ; ‘2 , to love mercy, and do jiistiy, the tfOld«TV law .of ..love V 3 to . lay. up irefiBures ' in •Heaven: by the law of. liberalityj .-l, to hate sin and love righteousness, the - law 'óf eter n a r good ; ‘ n n d, 5; to m a ke ; k n ow n I ho ; goodness of;God the. Father through Jesus Ghriat Uia Son’,' by the Spirit’ power to the sons of; men. On the niotipn.’of. Mr. Entri- can, seconded bj’ Mr, Smeaton, a hearty vote of thanks was.ununimously-accorded to- Mr. .Yntiriah for his ; helpful addresses.- He brought the scheme for wiping off £*2,350 of; debt off -the Y/ M. O, A; .before the tneót- frig, and' about : £iiQO. was subscribed arid promised in the room. Iu the afternoon at thè Y. M. O. A. he concluded his addresses to women on “ Woman and ilei Special Work.” ' was subscribed by the women to the Y. M. C. A. scheme, und £1*2 the day before. In tho evening tho City Hall was crowded, many being unable to gain ad­mission.. Mr. Yatinan’s subjcct was ‘ 'Hea­ven.” He said his mission wi»a not to preach hell or heaven hereafter, but to help men and woinen to niako heaven <m earth, instead of their making It a hell. The ser­vice was an inspirational one both in hymns, solos and sermon. There was tho largest number of inquirers that there has yet been on any night of the mission, .\liss Rim- merand.Mr. Abel sang sacred solos. Mr. Yatmun’s Sunday services will be found notified elsewhere, namely,:at the Helping Hand Mission in the morning, at Grafton Road Wesleyan Church in the forenoon, mass meeting, for nicn, in city Hall at three, subject, “ Tho. Forty Wioatlora;” at four, special meeting for women only, l ’ltt Street Wesleyan Church; at half past eeven, in tho City Hall, Mr. Yatman’s address will be “ The Pathway of Life.” (illustrated), and at oight un overflow gathering in the Opera Houso, when Mr. Yat man will-con­tinue tho same thome, •

We havo had various processes for extract­ing gold in tho community, but tho best process that I have seen is the-Yatman ex­tractor. Mr. Yatman’s process—judging from hia remarks—is not a “ dry” process, nor oven a crushing uffa ir, but uppoars to savormore of olectricity and personal mag­netism than anything cUc. If he succeeds in relieving the Young Men’s Christian As­sociation of a heiivy load of debt, thore are a good many pleope who will arise and call him blessed, and the Yatman hut will bo regarded as n real beaver. One of our members of the General Assembly at a crit­ical crisis when a compact wns made in the Legialatuio, put down, as tho first article, “ Nothing for William Swanson.” So the New York evangelist, in milking his earnest appeal to the people of Auckland to wipe.off this debt, pjts this legend on his banner, “ Nothing ior C. H. Yatman” but the pleas­ant recollection of having accomplished i» good work. . . .

Mr. Yatman does not aeom deeply lui. pressed with some of tho churches, as well as some of thè men in them. He speaks for America, for he would be rather tender of saying such things of New Zealand. There are, he says, men In the'churches who are prayer meeting killers, and will never bo anything elae. “ For instance,’’.and this was by way of illustration, ” 1 remember a church in the Onited Stales, the ventilation of which was very bud. The parson made the ae.xton’a life a burden to him, as did most of tho congregation. Ho hod got to find out the trouble or quit. Maddened by his troubles, tho sexton dotormined to get up in tho church loft and make a personal examination. Ono day ho told old Deacon Growiey that he had found out the speret of the a Ila ir. “ Well,” said Growiey, who was the “ seventh vial” in the concrete, “ what is tho cause of tbo bad draught« and smells?” “ Tho fact is,” suid tho imperturbable sex­ton, “ tho louvred oponings are stuffed with old prayors that never got any higher!“ ’

Tho following letter under dato of January •2*2 indicates that his prediction and hope of a wonderfully successful and effective meet ing Were destined to be: fullilled :

Auckland, N. Jan. ‘2*2, lrtilli.Dear Friends:—I send a hasty word by

this mail steamer. Another does not leavo for a month.. •. -. , Y; :

Reception to Dr. W hlnna.Rev. Robert Whlnna, of NorrJsto«^i,,J?».,*

a summer resident of Ocean Grove, who has just completed a five years’ pastorship in the. former. town was tendered a reception last week by the varioua societies connected with tho church, nt which, time ho was the recipient of a valuable encyclopedia, an ox­idized atand and tho following testimonial' handsomely engraved1:

Whereas, Rev. Robert Whinna, M.D., Imv- ing been-with us as pastor of tho Oak Slreet M. E. Church; Norristown, Pa.> for the past five years, and during that time we have al- •ways found him. a Christian gentleman?a faithful minister of tho gospel .of Jesus- Christ, a kind .pastor, always- ministering to the sick, qud his ..amiable and Im-ing spirit, which has tho indomitable power of maintaining harmony and peace, the spirit­uality lind mumbership.of the Church, hav­ing been well sustained, and through his- tact in financiering, tho chufeh lait» bçcn enabled to meet all her obligations In a; most sill isfactory manner; and,,

Whereas, The t ime, having come when ac­cording ti» the law of Methodist itinerancy, lie must - sever IiIh connection avith jih as pnstor, we. the. official members of Oak- Street- M. E. Church, desiro to place‘on record our high appréciât ion of his services and unbounded confidence in him, and at tho same time commend him to whatever charge the Conference may teo fit in its wisdom to jilace him, fully believing .that the energy and zeal manifested in the cause of. Jesue Ciiri.**t while with ua will be car- ried mit in all departmenls of church work, wherever his lot may bo cant. . .

Talmage as an Explorer.Nearly two yeftra ago Rev. Dr. Talmage,

the eelebraled preacher and lecturer, started on his now famous tour of tin» world, for the. purpose,.hs bo declared nt-the ,time,:o( studying ull the religious beliefs of Ihe-def­erent races of mankind, and if lié could find a hotter one than. Christianity* embracing it. This was.a startling declaration.to be­gin with,:and his discoveries and revelations appear to lie none the less startling. In fact the Doctor has added to his reputation lift the greatest living religious orutor, that of a famous explorer aa well. His.discov­eries and adventures are fully as interesting as those of Stanley or Livingstone., and equally as valuable, because they-relate to different races of pebpîo and other parts of the world, arid throw u wonderful light upon the inoàt iinportant subjects that come with­in t\»b vawgeoi inan’a investigation.

His .route led him lirst dcross the conti­nent .from-New York to San Francisco, thence to Samoa and the Sandwioh Islands, the Island of the Pacific,: Australia, Borneo, India -with all-is wonders and mysteries, Egypt and up the Nile to tho borders of ancient Ethiopia, Syria Palestine, over St. Paul's Mediterranean Sea voyage, Greece, Italy, Spain, Europe, the British Isles, Rus ala,' and across the Atlantic to the place of starting.

Throughout this tremendous journey he was accompanied by his secretary anil well, supplied with the most approved photo­graphic apparatus, by which »»»cans ho wne enabled to describe and photograph the people,.‘scenery, historical places, and other subjects o f. universal. iutereat at the time and as he tjnw them. Ills' new book, giving an account of his travels, adventures, ln^ vestigations and discoveries has just been published, under tho appropriate title of “ Tho Earth Girdled,” and the author de­clares, in an autograph letter to his publish­er, that ho considers it the most,vigorous work of his life. It is illustrated with over •100 photographic, views, the .moat curious and wonderful, doubtlese, that ever appeared in a book. Eight of those photographs have been reproduced in natural colois, which add greatly to their interest and beauty.

“ The Earth Girdled” will be circulated exclusively' by means of canvassers, and it certainly affords an extraordinary opportun­ity to all .who desire paying employment. Sco publlsher’a announcement in another column of this paper.
