Vol. XXIII ¥ OCEAN GROVE, N. J., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER. 24, 1915 No. 39 PRIMARY ELECTION NEXT WEEK, TUESDAY NO PERSONAL REGISTRATION IN NEPTUNE TOWNSHIP. NEW TAX BOARD RULE. Defeated Candidates Cannot Have Their NamcB Printed On the Of- ficial Ballots For the General Election-—Women Watchers Per- mitted To Serve At the Polls. Several acts passed by the lest . legislature affecting the election laws will become ofiectlvo at the ap- proaching-primary and general elec - tions. Among t,ho changes are the following: Personal registration Is not re- quired in townships containing less than .7,000 Inhabitants. Formerly this was 6,000. This change is pro- vided by Chapter 362 of the laws ol 1916. After making this change it provides that In all such townjnlpa the duties and pay of election ot fleers, and tho methods of registra- tion shall be the same as heretofore. ' Another new law provides that a person who runs for a nomination at the primaries and is defeated, cannot have his name printed on the official ballot for the* general election in November. This is Chap- ter 100. Its precise provision is: "Any persons whose name was printed upon the odlcial ballot of any party at the preceding primary who failed of nomination, shall not bo eligible to have his namo printod on the odlcial ballot for said gener- al election by petition.'’ This is an important provision, its purposo being to prevent a defeated primary candidate from entering the general election to accomplish the defeat of his successful oppon- ent by drawing votes from him. In several olectlons during tbe past two or three yfears men who lost the nomination at tbe primaries got their name on , the official ballot at the general election by petition and succeeded in winning enough votes to defeat tho cifjlidatea who were successful at tho primaries. Members of tho county and city committees of political parities now • take office' on the first Saturday fol> lowing their election, instead of on the first Tuesday after theli election, as provided by the old law. This Is also accomplish- ed by Chapter 10, by amending Sec- tion 06 of the Geran election act. Under the old law city committees wore not mentioned at all In this provision. ThiB new act also pro- vides that the annual meeting of tho county ■ committee shall be QP- the llrst Saturday after the fourth Tues- day ln September, or ln other words, the Saturday after tho primary elec- tion. Ab the county and city commit- tees are elected at the primary elec- tion, and as this elction this year is on Tusday, Sepetmber 28, they will take office on Saturday, October 2. Or. this same date, alBO,' each of these committees must hold its an- nual meeting. One of the now election laws, Chapter 126, provides that women watchors may be appointed to act at tho polls at tho special election on Tuesday, October 19, on the pro- posed amendments to tho State con- stitution. These watchers ore for for tho purposo of guarding the ▼oto on tho woman suffrago amend- ment. Tho leaders of the suffragists and of tho anti-suffragists in each county are to make nominations for theso -watchors to tho County Board of Elections, and this board makes the appointments. There Is to bo one watcher lor the suffragists and one for the “antlB” in each election district. , As before stated the primary elec- tion rls on Tuesday, September 28, •with the “polls open throughout the State tron).7 a. m. to 9 p. m. This wllT bo for tho nomination of candi- dates for all offices to bq filled at the general election ’on .Tuesday, No- vc-mbor 2, as well as for . tho election of mcmbet-B of the county commit- tees of the political parties. September 28 * 1b alBO tho second registry day all ovor the State. Tho State conventions of tho Be- publ/lcans and Domocrats will be held In Tronton, Tuesday, October 6, and tho call for these gatherings will be issued by tho respective State committees on or before Thursday, September 30. Tho Progressives, having lost their standing as an of- ficial party, owing to their light vote last November, will not hold on official State Convention this year. Tho third registry day in all mu- ■nlclpalltl.es of over 5,000 population -Will be Tuesday, Octobor 19. $500,000 In Middletown Township Added to County Eatables. The new rulo of the State Board of Taxes and Assessment requiring real estate and personal property of farmers to.be assessed separately, Is bringing fino results, in Monmouth county, according to statements made to the State Board by William K, Deveruex, a member of the Mon- mouth County Tax Board. He de- clares that In Middletown township alone, $600,000 lias been added to tlie county ratables without adding to the number of appeals.' Formerly farm personal property and real estate were assessed togeth- er and much personal property es- caped altogethor. Now under the ruling of the State Board, which was recently promulgated to tht- County Boards, the valuation must bo made separately. This new ruling of the State Tax Board was undoubtedly brought about by the efforts of Arthur H. Hope, former assessor of the city ot Asbury PSrlc and well-known expert on taxation. For several years past Mr. Hope has clearly shown, by facts and figures, tbe startling unequal system of taxation in this countjT" at least. That his thorough ventilation of this matter is beginning to bear fruit is gratifying. Placed on Retired last. Dr. T. J. Scott, of Ocean Grove, wlio will bo eighty years of ago Oc- tober 4 next, has been placed on tho retired list by the Methodist confer- ence. The ICaultab has the following to say about Dr. Scott: “As health consideration prevents the return to India of Dr. and Mrs. T. J. Scott, at this conference, after forty-three years of active service, Dr. Scott was placed in tlie retired list. It has been given to few men to have such a successful missionary career, or to leave such a ■ strong impress upon an entire mission, as has been the case with this retiring veteran. Aside from the general in- fluence lie has upon the development and direction of the work, tbe Ba- reilly Theological Seminary, ot which lie was the founder, and for more than a quarter of a century the principal, is a lasting monument to Dr. Scott’s zeal and wisdom. At this time It is Impossible to give a just appreciation of hiB life and work in India, but the Kaukab hopes soon to devote more space to this sub- ject. The workers from the confer- ence go back to their field of labor strong in the hope that another suc- cessful1year la before them.” FALL SERVICES AT ST. F A IL ’S BEGIN INAUGURATED LAST SUNDAY WITH.

A picture has been taken of the ocean end of Wesley lake, showing- the opening between tbe Ocean Grovo North End Hotel and the As- bury Park Casino. It will be noticed that tho frankfurter shop on the ABbury Park side that was p- tested against two years ago stands out a sad reflection on the Beach Commissioners, who permitted its erection. The pictures are on exhibi- tion in the window of the Heck Street House on Heck street, near Lake avenuo, at tho lower bridge, that was formerly used by the fe- male suffragists. Tho object in show- ing tho pictures la to arouse public attention to the proposed outrage to erect booths on the open space as it now exists, and then If the outrage is. consummated; another . picture will be taken, and thoBe commission- ers who will bo responsible will go down ln the history of ABbury Park with their names Inscribed on the plate. James A. Bradley.— 39. (Above appeared in the Asbury Park Press of September 18, 1915.) Asbury Park’s Popular Drink. One of the interesting features in the bidding for Asbury Park board- walk business concessions, formally entertained by the city commission- ers, was tho popularity of. buttermilk as a summer tipple as disclosed in the priceB quoted for booths where this drink could be dispensed. ,G. M. Anderson, the present lessee, of- fered $700 a year for throe years, an advance of $300 over this year, for a booth less than ton feet square. Six others sought the con- cession tho loweatj offer being $460 a year. J Caught Two Turtles and Won a Bet. John E. Giberson, of Keansburg, caught two snapping turtles weigh- ing fifty and ten pounds near the Swimming River bridge near Lln- croft. The turtles were caught with a hook and line. Eels were used for bait. When Mr. Giberson start- ed on his turtle hunting expedition George VanBrunt, of Bed Bank, bet him $6 that he would not get a tuTftle. The Koanaburg’i man thus won $5 in addition to catohlng the turtles. A Youthful Couple; Miss Harriet Atwater, daughter of Fred Atwater, of Belford,’ and Paul Lynch, of Bolford,, were mar- ried September 5 at the. Bed .Bank Baptist parsonage by Rev., Johnson L. Miner. Mr; and Mrs, William Cosgrove were the attendants. Tlie bride 1s only 14 yeais old and the gk-oom.19. and a clerk at Fort Han- cock.

Bills, Which Proved Inter- esting. Last Sunday the full regular fall and winter schedule of service was begun at St. Paul’s M. E. Church. The evening worship had been dis- pensed with during the summer at the church, in order that all might worship at the Auditorium. All the services of Sunday were splendidly attended and the morning and evening audiences filled the church. Rev. James D. Bllls, pastor of tho church, was assisted by the follow- ing clergymen: Henry Wheeler, T. J. Scott, H. C. McBride, W. F. Brush, B. F. String, Willis Reeves and J. W. Grant, all of whom took somo part in either the morning or evening service. The fine choir of young ladies was present and did excellent work; their anthems were greatly enjoyed, as were also the solo by Mrs. C. E. Connell ami the duet by- Mrs. Bleeck- 01 Stirling and- MI bb Mae Shepherd. The church waa decorated with cut (lowers. The morning service was in hon,- or ot the merchants on account of ‘Merchants’ Day" having been ob- served last week in Ocean Grove and Asbury Park. The pastor had in- vited the merchants and clerks to attend, and many of them were In the audience. The St. Paul’s ushers also were out in full force, having been releas- ed from tlielr duties at tho Auditori- um by the closing of that place. Tho Methodist Brotherhood com- ing from tlielrjnen’s meeting in the church parlor led by D. S. Reeves, president, and R. H. Eddleman, de- votional leader, took their places in the congregation. Rev. J. D. Bills welcomed the people’ and had a good word for the strangers present. He preached an intensely practical ser- mon from the text found in 2nd Thessalonlans 3:13,“Be not weary in well doing." Wo give a brief ab- stract of his discourse: He said *he toxt is so familiar that It has become a household word, or proverb to en- courage any about to falter or give up. The apostle In this chapter has been talking about work and other well-doing, or good behavior, and so the text may be applied to labor either of body or brain and also to the Christian life. First then let us apply It to labor or service, and a word in the text will help us to remember it—doing Be not weary in well doing. The apostle has just been complaining of those who do not work, saying: “For we hear that there arg some, among you that are disorderly, working not at all. Now them that are such We command and exhort by ’o u r Lord Jesus Christ, fhat with quietness they work arid cat their own bread.” He also said: “For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat." The book that tells the story of "The Carpenter of Nazareth." exalts work and Christ himself said “My Father worketh hitherto, "and I work." Furthermore, tho text requires a good service— well doing. In this Bame chapter we read “There are aomfi among you work- ing not, but are busybodleB." That is they work hard enough, but their labor is not of the right kind. They spend their lives in the Bervlce of satan. There. Is a good deal ot per- nicious activity in the world. People work harder at doing, wrong than they do at well doing. Henry Ward Beecher tells of a man living near his homo who stole all tho firewood ho uaed, going out In the night and carrying It homo. Mr, Beocher says they figured up the time ho spent and found out that he could have earned more than the wood was worth in the same timo at honest la- bor. 'ty ’SSJP* Again, I think tho text means a glad service— Be not weary. Strictly speaking, It may mean simply not to cease .doing, but I think our service must not be mere- ly perfunctory; not half-hearted. Let it not- be an intermittent ser - vice. I preached the funeral sermon of a man who bad wojked ln a nail mill for fifty-three years. He had stood at ono anvil pounding out hi= dally toll, blit I was glad that I could Bay tbat for a. still longer time he had been faithful in'his service to God and regular In his attendance upon the means of grace. > Conference Now Being Held Here By Leaders of Methodism, A conference of unusual import- ance to Methodism, and, in fact, of interest to all evangelical denomina- tions, is being held at the North End hotel, with a number of the most prominent Methodist workers of the world In attendance. This conference, which is preliminary to the second national missionary cam- palgn to bo inaugurated next month under auspices of the Layman’s Mis- sionary Movement, has for its chief purpose tho training of the speak- erB who will represent the Methodist church on the five teams of speakers that will participate in the national campaign. Tho conforenco opened Wednesday and will conclude Sun- day. Among the prominent workers in attendance are Bishops Luther p. Wilson, of New York; McDowell, of Chicago; McConnell, of Denver; An derson, of Cincinnati; Hartzell, of Africa; Warne, of India, and Bishop Homer C. Stuntz, of South America: Drs. John R. Mott, Frank M. North, S. Earl Taylor, William F. Oldham Fred B. Fisher and G. H. Jones, ot New York, and Dr. John F. Goucher, of Baltimore, as well as about 40 or 60 missionaries, pastors, laymen and other church leaders. Tho llrat national campaign of the L a y m a n ’s Missionary Movement, held In 1909-10, when 75 conven- tions were held with an average of 1,000 delegates at each, was so suc- cessful, that the leaders have been inspired to attempt oven larger things iii this second campaign. Tb • campaign will culminate in a nation- al missionary congress; to Up held Washington. April 20-30. P. B. Smith Supt. of St. Paul’s. ■Frank B. Smith, general manager of the Ocean Grove Campmeeting Association, and for many years su- perintendent o£ the Metropolitan Mission Sunday school ln New York, has been elected io succeed Harry Hendrickson, who has held the posi- tion of superintendent lu St. Paul’s church, Ocean Grove, for tho pas' four and a half years. The resignation of Mr. Hendrick- son was received at the monthly meeting last week of the Sunday school board after the - midweek prayer service. No reason other than that he was tired of the work was given by Mr. Hendrickson for his withdrawal. Rev. J. D. Bills said Mr. Hendrickson had offered Ills resignatoin on several previous occasion, but that he had prevailed upon him to continue. Mr. Smith has for many years been connected with Sunday school work and had to leave his duties as superintendent ot the Metropolitan mission when he took up hia poaition with the Association. ANNUAL CQVEITON OF COUNTY W. C.T.U. HELD ON FRIDAY OF LAST WEEK IN ST. PAUL’S CHURCH FINE DISPLAY PROMISED Pound Fishermen Had Poor Season. The pound fishermen nlong the Jersey coast have had one of the poorest seasons ln yonrs. The scar- city of fish will mean a reduction in the number of pounds next -year. There.are 62 pounds along the coast, and the prediction Is made that there will be at least 25 per cent, reduction next year unless there Is ah increase in the catch within the next few months. Captain Nelson Lockwood, of Galilee, says the in- creased number of poundB has been the means of cutting dqwn the re. celpts. of the pound men to a mini- mum. Already,-he says, several ot the pound men have quit because, they have lost money. The captain Says this year thus far has been the slowest In forty years. (Concluded on pose,four.)- Anti-Suffragists Meet. "Shorelands,” the beautiful Elbe- ron estate ot Mra .Henry Seligman, was the scene laBt week of a gather- ing of prominent Jersey shore w<>- men in the Interests of the New Jer- sey Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage.

Miss Jane Davis,, of_ Red Bank, who has the distinction of being the only county attendance officer in New Jersey, has been reappointed by Commissioner' Calvin N. Kendall for another term. She was appointed as attendance officer of Monmouth county'under an act passed in 1914. When the law was passed, James A. Scrymser, of Now York, who has a summor residence at Low Moor, near Sea Bright, agreed to pay the attendance officer appointed a sal- ary of $900 a year for three years, providing tho county would make provision for tho payment of ex- penses.

"If the church could get an ade- quate vision of the adjustment of the liquor question it would mean, I think, a second Protestant reforma- tion,” declared the Rev. Edwin J. ■Relnke, of Wayne, Pa., secretary of the Presbyterian Board of Temper- ance, In his address at the evening session of the Monmouth County W C. T. U. convention on Friday of last week in St. Paul’s church.- Rev, Mr. Relnke believes, tue liquor problem to be tho great so- cioiogicai question of the day. It is not a fad, he said, and he follow- ed up tills, view of the matter by charging tlmt the attitude of the average Christian on temperance *s only that of- a general Hostility, claiming that the vision is lacking. It. Is lacking, he said, for one thing because to the average Christian the saloon is nut of his immediate touch: to others because they do not like to hear Its horrors discu:.sed, while many others are wholly indif- ferent. "Temperance is the great qucs* tinn of the day and our God is mov- ing on," tho speaker said, “and Bil- ly Sunday says In ten years our country is going dry.” Rev. Mr. iteinke spoko also at the afternoon session, his theme being “.The Axe At tho Root of the Tree.” At the business meeting earlier in tho day Mrs. S. S. Smock, of Wicka tunic, was elected president, succeed- ing Miss Helen P. Strong, of Mata- wan, who held the office for the past eight years and who declined re- election. Other officers elected are Recording secretary, Miss E. Mat- this, of Asbury Park; corresponding secretary, Mrs. H. A. Boyd, of Matawan; treasurer, Mrs. Franklin Patterson, of Atlantic, Highlands. Rev. George Hamer, of Ooean Grove, pastor of the M. E. Church at Morganville, was on the program for a talk during the afternoon on ’ How One Church Did It." Rev. Mr. Hamer told how, through per- sonal work, practically everybody In Morganville became members of the church temperance society and now nearly every man, woman and child in the place wears the white ribbon. Delegates to the convention were served with dinner at the Columbia, corner Main and Beach avenues. Here business reports were presented under the title of "Savory Summar- ies,’’ “Saltecj Experiences,” and “Spiced Suggestions.” Visitors In- cluded Miss Ether Elfreth, of Had- donfield, State president, and Mrs. Emma Bourne, of Newark, former State president and recording secre- tary of the State body. Miss Elfreth gave an address during the after- noon session. She spoke of general temperance work and the progress that is being made by the W. C. T. U. A demonstration of the Young People's Branch at the evening ses- sion presented in living pictures "Cojumbia Redeemed." The black ballots of the male voters covered Columbia with shame until the votes of tbe women came to her rescue. Columbia wbb impersonated hy Miss Bessie Clark, of #cean Grove. During the evening Miss Helen P. Strong, former county president, was handed a certificate ot life membership In the State union for her sister, Miss Mary Strong, ^f Matawan. The presentation . was made on behalf of the Strong W. <!, T U., of Asbury Park, by its presi- dent, Mrs E. F. Whittier. The women of the local union are grateful for the help given them in arranging for the convention and thank all who assisted in carrying out their plans. The Staple Oyster. "Oysters; the food that" has not gc.ne up,” is the title of the govern- ment’s latest cook book, issued last week through the bureau of fisher- ies. It contains 100 recipes for pre paring the bivalves, as well as a lit- tle of their history, written by H. F. Moore, deputy commissioner of fish- eries. “An animal food which , vlri tually has not increased in cost for 26 years, and tho production of which has kept pace with tl^e growth of population.” Mr.. Moore says, "is a present day anomaly worthy of public attention; especial- ly when its price brings It within the reacb of all; and its excellence leaves little to be desired. This Is the case of the oyster." State Departments Interested Ii, Annual Fair At Trenton.

Excellent Singing By Choir of Yourr.Ladies— A “Merchants’ Day" Ser­mon Preached by the Pastor, Rev. J. D. Bills, Which Proved Inter­esting. ■

Last Sunday th e fu ll reg u la r fall and w in te r schedule of service w as begun a t St. P a u l’s M. E. Church. The evening w orship had been d is­pensed w ith d u rin g the sum m er a t th e church, in order th a t all m igh t w orship a t the A uditorium .

All the services of Sunday were sp lendidly a ttended and the m orning and evening audiences filled the church.

Rev. Jam es D. Bllls, pastor of tho church , was assisted by the follow­ing clergym en: H enry W heeler, T.J. Scott, H. C. McBride, W . F . B rush, B. F. S tring , W illis Reeves a n d J. W. G rant, a ll of whom took somo p a r t in e ith e r th e m orning or evening service.

The fine choir of young ladies was presen t and did excellent w ork; th e ir an them s were g rea tly enjoyed, as w ere also th e solo by Mrs. C. E. Connell am i th e duet by- Mrs. Bleeck- 01 S tirlin g and- M I bb Mae Shepherd. The church waa decorated w ith cut (lowers.

The m orning service was in hon,- or ot the m erchan ts on account of ‘M erchan ts’ Day" hav ing been ob­

served las t week in Ocean Grove and A sbury P ark . The pastor had in ­vited the m erchan ts and clerks to a ttend , and m any of them w ere In the audience.

The St. P au l’s ushers also w ere out in fu ll force, hav ing been releas­ed from tlie lr du ties a t tho A udito ri­um by the closing of th a t place.

Tho M ethodist Brotherhood com­ing from t l ie l r jn e n ’s m eeting in the church parlor led by D. S. Reeves, president, and R. H. Eddlem an, de­votional leader, took th e ir places in the congregation. Rev. J. D. Bills welcomed th e people’ and had a good word for th e strangers present. He preached an in tensely p rac tica l ser­mon from the tex t found in 2nd T hessalonlans 3 :1 3 ,“ Be no t w eary in well doing." Wo give a b rief ab­s tra c t of h is discourse: He said *hetoxt is so fam iliar th a t It has become a household word, or proverb to en­courage any about to fa lte r o r give up. The apostle In th is chap ter has been ta lk in g about work and o th er w ell-doing, or good behavior, and so the tex t m ay be applied to labor e ith er of body or b ra in and also to the C hristian life.

F irs t th en le t us apply It to labo r or service, and a word in th e tex t w ill help us to rem em ber it— doing

Be not w eary in well doing. The apostle has ju s t been com plain ing of those who do not work, say ing : “ For we h ear th a t there arg some, am ong you th a t a re disorderly , w ork ing not at a ll. Now them th a t a re such We command and exhort by ’our Lord Jesus C hrist, fh a t w ith quietness they w ork arid c a t th e ir own bread .” He also sa id : “F o r even w hen wew ere w ith you, th is we commanded you, th a t if any would n o t w ork, n e ith e r should he ea t."

T he book th a t tells th e sto ry of "T he C arpenter of N azareth." ex a lts w ork and C hrist h im self said “ My F a th e r w orketh h ith e rto , " a n d I w ork ."

F urth e rm o re , tho tex t requ ires a good service— well doing.

In th is Bame chap ter w e read “T here are aomfi am ong you w ork­ing not, b u t are busybodleB." T h a t is they w ork h a rd enough, bu t th e ir lab o r is n o t of th e r ig h t k ind . They spend th e ir lives in the Bervlce of sa tan . T here. Is a good deal o t p er­nicious ac tiv ity in th e w orld. People work h ard er a t doing, w rong th a n they do a t well doing. H enry W ard Beecher te lls of a m an liv ing near his homo w ho stole a ll tho firewood ho uaed, going ou t In th e n ig h t and carry in g It homo. M r, Beocher says they figured up th e tim e ho spent and found o u t th a t he could have earned m ore th an th e wood was w orth in the same timo a t honest la- bor. 'ty ’SSJP*

A Well Merited Punishment

By W. EDSON SMITHC o p y rig h t by F r a n k A . M unsoy Co.

Ju st above where the Uio Santa Fe runs laughingly into tlie reservoir there Is a place where one may cross its shimmering shallows easily enough, by means of thickly scattered stepping stones.

Lolita M artinez had loitered along the white snnd carpet o f ; th a t same pine shaded .w ater course hundreds of tJmes in her seventeen years.

I t was a pleasant place to pass au idle hour, and idle hours were not a few. B ut the hot- Spanish blood was racing now as she cume out o f her fa­th er’s house, and, with an assumption of lazy nonchalance, she picked a way slowly, gracefully, across the river.

The beating of her heart could be pardoned. Perfect May days, enchant­ing with the magic fragrance o t a mil­lion apple trees, are many in this hap­py valley. But. it is on only one May day in a lifetime that a girl runs away to be married—and to an American! Of course an American! Suppose it had been Francisco Gonzales—there would have been no running away!

They, would have been wedded a t the cathedral w ith all tlie ancient cere­monial, and Francisco would have tak­en her to Ills new* built home. •

Even* drunken Manuel Valdez., who had no lio iiw <»n liis barren hillside acres, whose name was a bvxvord for wickedness.* even he would have been

. an easier suitor f«»r her fsilher to ac­cept than Itrnss. llie American.

Over the uiiTs arm was Hung the folds of a light, nisiuv colored Xavajo blanket. Ir was dr;ipt;d around a lonjr. capacious pasteboard b*»x.

I AN INCIDENT OF |I TOE WORLD’S WARi ___V< ►

;; It Happened to a Reporter •«

By F . A. M1TCHEL

W hen the jxvent Kuropunn w ar broko out I w«k a reporter on nn American newspaper. Young nnd full of vi^or, I found it impossible to content inynelf picking up unim portant item s when g reat armies w ere In conflict. I Peg­ged to he sen t either to France or to Germany as a w ar correspondent. There wore persons a t hand who were better able than I to w rite descriptions of battles, Imt I w as chosen because the proprietor of the paper, having been a soldier in the Spanish-American war, knew the dangers I would likely encounter and that a younjx follow of twenty-two w as better able to face them than an older man.

Everybody knows now, w hat no one knew then, th a t newspaper correspond­ents would not ho allowed a t the front. I found it out when I arrived and/ de­termined. s lw c I could not give battle pictures. 1 :» send my paper scenes in the wake of war.

I f<u!::d It easier to penetrate te r­ritory o'^’Upied by th e allies than by the florin?'it*, so f took the direction o f lesser oj-eo^itfoiK on tho sam e prin­ciple that w ater flows. T entered Itel- gjum a t a Him* when the Hermans w ere hammerin'? a t tho Liege forts. I t was not I mi", however, before the a l­lied rofWM h"g’M!. and f r iny purp^s-* of w ritit'”’ en soi*nes of the eonntry over will- h the tide, of battle had p a r t ’d 1 fnymvrtl the arm let south­w ard. -Thl's pu t mo in the rea r of the rsoniftuis.

It: will he remembered that, where the flerm ans parsed through a certain, d h tr lr t ;riv/*n up to the growing of grapes and the m anufacture of wine they helped themselves t<> the stock oil hand. 1 came one evening upon one of tliene vineyards who.ro the grape was grown, turned into wine and stored bi cellars. The plae*» had not only been fought, rivet*, but. had suffered from tUo Ofcupatlon of nn arm y corps. ’Vhen I arrived the troops had .lust left and there wa-; not a person on the place. I t was cvenimr, and. though I on p. Cess I ■ shuddered at. the desolation about me, I took a melancholy Interest in ex­ploring the premises.

Singular it w as nnd impressive to walk through large rooms; In some of which w ere the wine v a ts and some of which had been used fo r bottling, each apartm ent being devoted to a separate purpose. The preihlses looked as If n hurrieane had passed over them. There were vast rents in the roofs and the walls, while in the interior shells had been exploded, knocking the winemak­ing apparatus to pieces.

Coming to a sta irw ay leading below th e main floor, I w ent down and found myself In a w ine cellar; Judging by the empty bottles scattered about, ev­ery drop of wine had been drunk. The sight reminded m e of the scene of an orgy the morning a f te r It had taken place arid the. banquet room deserted by the reve’ers.

There was a sad fascination in w an­dering through these cellars, passing from one to th e other. They were dark, but I found plenty o f partly burned candles lying about to give me light. I passed through several cellars, in all of which the bottles had been emptied, then entered one in which w ere only casks.. I turned the faucet of one on the lowest row nnd found it empty. Then trying one on a higher tier the red wine gushed forth. Evi­dently the stock had been only partly drained.

Penetrating a narrow passage a t the farther end of the room. I descended several steps and came to an Iron door. W hile exam ining it I heard voices on the other side. They were not the voices of men, b u t of women.

I t struck me a t once th a t whoever the persons were they had. shu t them­selves in there to escape the fighting th a t had rolled over the place. With th e reportorlal Instinct strong In me, I desired to interview them. I knocked on the door.

In nn instan t the talking ceased and all was still* I knocked again, and re­ceiving no reply called out In tolerable French:

“ The soldiers hnve gone; there is no danger."

I heard nothing for a few moments; then a sw eet feminine voice, evidently n ear the door, asked:

‘‘Who are yon?’“A citizen, an American."“Has the battle ceased?”“Yes, and the troops have moved on.” “Are you sure there a re no Germans

on the place?*’“ I h a ve s e e n no n e .”I could hear th a t those behind tbe

door were debating, but not w hat the.v said. Presently some one tried to fnove a bolt on the farther side o f the door

• nnd after some efTort succeeded. Then the door w as slowly sw ung open; \

Directly before m e was a young girl jibout eighteen. F arther on were sev­eral middle aged women, an old m a n and a number of children. The older ones showed the effects of having pass­ed through a harrowing experience, but th e .'children only looked curious as to

• w h a t would happen next. On seeing (R\man- U\ ;dress it 1 1, at»pearet

; 'to'ibe 'relieve*],;b r t t[)ey ln’d suffered se/

nothing to fear, though you will Andthe place a ruin."

“Ah, monsieur,** said tho girl, "we are lucky to escape with our lives.”

“Come,” I said; “you all doubtless need food and to breathe the fresh air.”

They left the subcellar in which they had been perfectly safe from bursting shells. W hile passing through the rooms th a t had contained their now vanished wealth the older ones groan* cd; when they ascended to the main fioor and saw tho ruins of their build­ings they looked a t each other In de­spair. The young girl did w hat she could to keep up their sp ir its saying th a t all would, soon be recovered, but her words had no ofloct upon them.

From . tbe south came a distant booming of cannon, though night hav­ing come on there was a lull in the lighting. There were no men on the premises, except the old man who had hidden in. th e eellor, for the men were all In the army. The women therefore cherished my presence w ith them and looked to me for guidance. I told the young girl, whom they called Clochettc, th a t we had better go to the bouse where the proprietor had lived, nnd she led the w ay thither.

We found it much upset, hut not a ruin. The officers had occep'ed it. nnd. though they had left the furniture topsy turvy. tho house itself except for being perforated bv a few cannon balls w as not injured. We lighted candles and set to work to make the house habitable. Fortunately i t w as summer, and we did not suffer from the pas­sage of a ir through tho holes in the walls.

Clochette nnd I. being the only young nersons present o ther than the chll* dren, did most of the work and got I ho premises in tolerable shape. oKeept fur cleanliness, which would roonir> more time rind effort. Then f*lo«-hette look me to one of Ihe buildings, beneath

j which provisions had been corn ea led, i and selecting w hat was needed we re­

tu rn ed to the others, and ( ’locliette got up a supper which was seasoned with hunger, and all a te ravenously.

P.elng tlio only man on the prejn's;^ ftt for service, and these people relying upon me alone for aid and comfort. I did not go lo bed with the others, but securing a fowling piece- for 'defense statioued myself on the porch to watch, for. grim vlsaged wai* was about us, and I did not know aj what moment I m ight be called upon to pro­tect. my charges. The firing grew le> toward midnight, biit here and there in every direction the heavens were lit w ith a light that indicated some house

.was being destroyed, and heaven only knew w hat dreadful calam ities were being . visited upon those who dwelt therein.

Now and again I heard voices of those who w ere probably stragglers and likely m arauders who were out for pillage. .Coming upon the build­ings which were in ruins, they passed on. The house in which my flock was sleeping, being as dark as the rest, was fortunately not visited. I was sitting in a chair, w ith my gun resting 011 the porch, nodding, when 1 felt a light touch on my shoulder.

“You are very kind,” said a voice which I knew to be Clochette’s. */I will relieve -you for a time. Go in and get some sleep. You Americans are the finest people In the world.”

I told her th a t I preferred to watch. When I asked her if there were auy more arm s on the place she replied th a t she knew of none excepting a revolver which she drew from under the sk irt of her dress, and Which she told me, she had kept there,from the time the tide of battle began to roll over the vineyard. She would not go to bed. so I drew a chair for her, and we sa t together 011 guard.

Clochette was the daughter of the superintendent of the vineyard. Among the women w as her mother, and the others were mostly h er relatives. Shn had evidently been the dependence of the party before my arrival, and even now was unable to throw off the re­sponsibility resting upon her. And yfet she was especially feminine. Sitting there together, whenever a yell, a curse or a shriek rang out in the night she drew near me and shuddered, while 1 . though I dreaded w hat might a t any moment happen, spoke In tones of as­surance that I m ight so fa r as possible keep up her courage.

D uring the night we met with vari­ous causes for especial terror. One I remember for the narrow escape we made. H alf a dozeu stragglers, all evl. dently drunk, came through the vine­yard. My companion nnd I withdrew behind some latticework, where we were well concealed. The men passed tho house and stopped before It. I heard them discussing w hether or not there was any loot -within, nnd for some time w e were in doubt whether or not they would come up 011 to the porch where we were preparatory to breaking In. If they had done so they would inwe undoubtedly discovered ns, and the consequences would have been terrible.

The few hours we passed between midnight and dawn, though terrifying, w ere in some respects the most pleas­ing and in all respect? the most hn-. porten t o f . my life.1 I had spent long periods, in proximity w ith young girls Without being draw n to them. This on e l m et a t evening and w ith the first gray streak o f daw n-klie‘was aH in all to me. W e had sa t together a tn l\ the booming of d istan t guns, the burn­ing of homes, the passing and repass* lng near us of those who were bent on the work of w ar.; Hefore morning we belonged to each other,‘ Clochette soon after left the fighting zone and I left it w ith hciS I wrote up ju s t one-incident in w ar’s wake, but it w as not . published in the paper1 represented.'

A ccording to s ta tis tics recen tly collected by the New Jersey Geo­logical Survey in co-operation w ith th e United S tates Geological Survey, more high-grade clay is dug and sold in New Jersey th an in any oth-, e r S tate. D uring 1914 th e re were foiU y-three producers who sold an aggregate of 373,703 sh o rt tons, valued a t $648,584, a decrease ot $121,105 in value and 74,432 tons in q u an tity com pared w ith 1913. These quan tities are in add ition to th e very m uch larger am ount of clay of a ll grades dug by th e m anu\ fac tu re rs . The value of th is clay is n o t computed separa te ly b u t is in ­cluded in th a t of the finished pro­duct. Of the clay^Tlug and sold, over seventy-three per cent, was fire clay, a considerable p a r t of w hich w as shipped to o ther S tates. T he chief clay producing d istric t of the. S tate is in Middlesex count* n ear Wood bridge, South Amboy and P e rth Amboy.

I t is impossible for those acquain t­ed w ith th e real tac ts to agree w ith E d ito r Cook, of the Red B ank Reg­is te r, in h is published declaration th a t “ M onmouth county has lqng held the. unenviable repu ta tion of. being th e champion m osquito county of the United S tates.’* The United S tates is a wide sweep from w hich to single o u t Monmouth county as the real stam ping ground of th e pestiferous zndHQiiito.

D uring th e sum m er ju s t ended there were noticed on our s tree ts horses th a t w ere fit subjects for the care and a tten tio n of the S. P. C. A. They belonged en tire ty to Outsiders — hackm en, bus ow ners and others whose daily, rounds b ro u g h t them into the place for trade.

FALL SERVICES AT ST.PAUL’S CHURCH BEGINS

{Concluded from page one)

Let us n o t be dissatisfied w ith our load. Addison tells us of a dream in w hich he saw a k ing m ake a procla­m ation to his people th a t on a cer­tain day th ey m ig h t ail come and ex ­change th e ir life burdens. E ach o r would be privileged to exchange h! burden w ith any o ther who m ight desire to m ake the exchange. At th e given tim e thousands came an ‘ changed th e ir burdens for o thers they thought easier to bear. Then they sta rted hom eward ; w ith rejoic ing. B ut he saw again in h is d reap ' th a t a f te r some days passed th e same m ultitude was to iling bac again in th e hope th a t those who ex­changed burdens w ith them m igh t be w illing to take them back again , a n d ‘there they found them all seek­ing the old burdens and each w ent his way again w ith con ten tm ent to bear his own load.

Let us no t complain o r f re t a t the q th e r w orkers. T he more fric tion we cjtn save th e m ore power we w ill have. The life In which th e re la fric tion is alw ays weak and ineffec­tive; one may w aste energy enough in com plaining, about o thers to do his own task , some one has said.

“Many a business man pu ts in .h is m ost valuable hours ad justing com-

f plications which, never could havfc arisen had his employes worked in harm ony,” and th is is also tru e in the church . Many a C hristian w astes in church quarre ls the nervous and j m ental vigor w hich ought to have gone into build ing up th e kingdom of Christ on earth . “* I

I t is an axiom in m echanics th a t ] "friction costs more than lu b r ic a -j tlon .” I t Is tru e everyw here. j

Lastly , le t us not be w eary of th e j C hristian life. An old sa in t used to ; frequently say in class-m eeting, “ I j have often been w eary in the way, . but never w eary of the way/* T iie j grace of our Lord Jesus C hrist can ■ not only keep us in the way, b u t , m ake if for us an active, glad w ay te rm in a tin g in heaven. .

The evening sermon was from Judges 6:14. “ Go in th is th y m igh t and thou sha ll save Israel.”

W ith th e close of the season peo­ple are inqu iring as to the fu tu re of

ERIDAY. S m E M B E B ’24, 1015. ;x-v

A Story of Ocean Grove

(W ritten in 1S73 by J. A. Bradley.)One evening in IS— two young

women cam e out of, tiie old Metho­d ist Church a t Long B ranch. Not tiie la rge church w hich G eneral G ran t nltonded in sum m er, b u t the li t t le old church w hich Btands op­posite to it, now used for stores.

One of the young women looked anxiously around, as if expecting to m eet some one. H er companion ob­served it, and tak ing her arm said earnestly , ''M attie , please don’t."

The words lind scarcely been u t­tered when a young man came h as ti­ly tow ard them , and offered him self as escort to the two ladies.

In a sh o rt time they reached the hom e of one ot the ladies, whose nam e was -Mary, w here “ good n ig h ts" w ere exchanged, and the re­m ain ing two continued th e ir walk.

The follow ing day M attie called on M ary, and a f te r the usual g ree t­ing, M ary said, frank ly , . ‘‘M attie, I w an t to ta lk to you about— ”

“ Oh, nonsense," in terrup ted M at­tie, “ don’t commence th a t old stra in again . I assure you It Is as tiresom e and insipid as the perpetual squeak of an ancien t hand organ. If I choose to have a li ttle sport, pray don’t dis­tu rb me in it. I t won’t do me any h arm .”

"W o n 't do any h a rm !” said Mary. How little you know of .the hum an h e a r t!"

"P sh a w !” replied M attie. “ If you include S tephen 's heart, you mako a s lig h t m istake. W hy lie’s not su f­ficiently ‘compos m entis’ by n a tu re to know w hat love is, even if he has a h e a rt a t a ll."

B u t we m ust re trace our steps, and give the reader a b rief account of the h isto ry of these two friends.

M attie was a very p re tty g irl, and had come to lie recognized as the belle of th e village In w hich our story commences. H er company had been sought by m any— young men who were quickly charm ed by her b rig h t, p re tty face, and had allowed th e ir hearts to become ensnared be­fore they were them selves conscious of th e danger, u n til they awoke to the sad fact th a t I hey had been be­guiled, a t the caprice of a p retty face, into a foolish flirtation , to bo throw n aside when tho "sp o rt,” as M attie called It, grew wearisome to her. So it came to pass th a t her repu tation as a thorough flirt be­came established, and young men w ere more cautious in th e ir friendly advances. Occasionally one know ing h er character as a coquette would n r t only no t seek her acquain tance, b u t avoid her society altogether.

W henever M attie heard of a case of th is kind she seemed determ ined to conquor, and .would put.' herself in h is way. employing, often too successfully, all those li ttle a r ts to cap tiva te w hich g irls have studied too well.

H er friend M ary W inslilp, w as (wo or th ree years older, a ttrac tiv e in person and cultu red In mind. She possessed a womanly, d ign ity , too, w ith th a t ra re good sense which fit­ted h er to be the companion of old or young; equally well. Yet even a stran g er could perceive .on a sho rt acquain tance w ith her, th a t there was a cloud of sadness hanging over h er young life. She was cheerful a l­ways, bu t subdued, as th e wisdom and experience of years were m ingled w ith her youth.

Very few knew why she was not more like her young associates. None ever knew from her Ups how h er young h ea rt had been crushed by disappointm ent.

B ut we w ill use an au th o r’s p riv i­lege and te ll the reader, th a t her charac te r m ay be b e tte r understood.

Among the m any visito rs a t Long B ranch in th e sum m er of 18— , waB a young m an named W illiam A rling­ton , who belonged to a n old and very w ealthy fam ily in V irginia. Some how or o ther he had become acquain ted w ith M ary, and they w ere very much attached to each o ther.

H er p aren ts w ere pleased w ith th e young stran g er, and w ere proud in th e th o u g h t of th e ir d au g h te r’s prospective good fo rtune in a uni ,n ■with a man of Intelligence and so­cial position.

A rling ton did no t acquain t his p aren ts w ith the fac t of h is intim acy •with th e W lnsh lp fam ily ; b u t It reached them through tho ofllcious kindness of some friends who were, cognizant ol th e whole m atter.

A rlington, senior, was exceeding­ly w roth In arrogance, and pride of fam ily, and w ent th rough the usual fo rm u la adopted from tim e imme­m oria l in sim ilar cases. Ho th re a t­ened to disown and d isin h erit his son and he ir, if he persisted in con- sum ating th e foolish alliance. Of course the tender youngling, having no m eans of support, and being by b ir th a gentleman-— in o th er words, unab le to labor— was very much alarm ed a t th e adverse tu rn fortune w as tak ing . I t was not h is fa th e r’s displeasure, so m uch as th e unw el­come prospect of w ork and lim ited allow ance, before w hich he quailed.

T e t M ary was very dear to him , and ho had engaged him self to her, and felt th a t he could no t th u s lig h t­ly re linqu ish h er; so ho began to arrange a plan by w hich h is fa th e r 's d isp leasure would be appended, and at the sam e tim e secure to h im tho only girl he had ever, rea lly loved. .

A sho rt tim e a fte r, w hile bidding ■Mary good n ig h t a f te r an evening v isit, he lingered h es ita tin g ly under th e old tree a t th e garden gate, and M ary quickly , d ivined th e re wa3 som ething upon h is m ind w hich he desired, yet. dreaded, to express.

She suggested th a t h is m anner w as m ore constrained th a n usual, an d inqu ired the cause. He then to ld h e r of h is fa th e r ’s disapproval of h is acquain tance w ith her, and of his unw illingness to displease him . “But,” said he, “ dear M ary, I have

thought of a way, w hich, if you will only consent, will qulot hlB rears- and mako mo happy forevor. F a th e r 1b old and cannot possibly llvo many years longer. Wo can bo married privately and live apart, meeting' oc •

caslonally as wo havo dono u n til hlB death , and then 1 can announco pub­licly th a t you havo been my wifo for some tim e. W ill my M ary consent io tlliB?"

He held her hand as lie asked tho earnest question, bu t she drew it from ills grasp as she looked steadi­ly Into h is pleading eyes, and calm ­ly, bu t firmly, answ ered "N ever! never! no, never! My fam ily may not be able to boast of noble and d istinguished m embers, bu t they have alw ays been known ns Chris- tian and v irtuous people. W hen th ey have m arried, they have donv, so before tho world. I would ra th e r ho the acknowledged w ife of the poorest honest m an in the town th an th e secret w ife of a prince. No, W illiam , I need no t te ll you now brigh t and sw eet tho dream of my life, m ingled an d interb lended w 'th yours, has been to me, b u t— ”

She paused for a m om ent to re* gain the self-control w hich was fas^ ebbing ou t— “ we m ust p a r t forever how !” She hurried ly tu rn ed away and en tered the house. He w aited, like one in a m aze, for several m in­utes, th en slow ly tu rned h is steps

.tow ard h is hotel.M ary secured herself In her quiei

cham ber, th rew herself upon the bed and wept in tho b itte rness ot her soul. The b righ t, b eau tifu l fu­tu re had suddenly been enshrouded In a pall of gloom w hich It seemed to her no coming sunshine could ever dispel. Hope had died in her heart. In her sorrow she rem em ber­ed th a t God had prom ised to help iu tim e of need, and comfort the tem p­est-tossed soul. She read her favor­ite passages in h er l i t t le Bible and was comforted. In tbe m orning she came forth from th e battle a conquer­or. She had consecrated her life in those s till n ig h t hours to the causo of God. not by secluding herself In u convent, but by resolving hence­fo rth to give her life, h e r love and sym pathies to th e sorrow ing and suffering all around hor.

Such was M ary who rem onstrated w ith her friend M attie about the tlirtatlon.

Stephen was an exceileut m echan­ic, respectable, though poor, aud was h ighly esteemed by those who knew him. He was confiding and g irl-like in h i s ‘natu re , his chief weakness being his child-hko faitn and tru s t in everybody. Those who sa ined h is confidence and then bc- t rayed it, som etim es said as an excuse for themselves, th a t lie was ju s t a l i t t le sim ple— not a ltogether b righ t, lie was a good son to h is widowed mother, und besides tak ing care of her, supported th e orphan child ot his only b ro ther, who lost h is life is assisting to rescue persons from a shipw reck a t Long Branch.

M attie, a t the tim e of w hich wo are w riting , counted among her victories our friend Stephen. I-Iow happily the days sped on to him in the m idst of his self-denying toil as he th o u g h t of M attie, and wove brigh t dream s of fu tu re bliss. Sho had played w ith th a t confiding heart as carelessly and indifferently as sho W’ould pass a candy m otto a t an evening party .

Mary W lnshlp saw a ll this, and realizing fu ll the sufferings It would surely cause, 'e a rn es tly begged her friend to stop ere it was too late.

“ Pshaw '!" said M attie. “How solemn you are. You havo m istak­en your vocation, Mary. A convent, and a black vail, and com plete lg norance forever of hearts and love, and a ll th a t so rt o t th in g would su it your style exactly ; b u t for me, if I feel like having a ‘la rk ’ now and then, I ,w ill; and no one shall in te r­fere— "

"M attie , listen to me, I beg of you; life Is not all made up, ot >cuth. Youth Is only the seed tim e of th e life’s harvest th a t is to come, and there are m any who reap b itte r sorrow s in middle- life and: old age from thoughtless sowing, when they little thought or carea for the reap ing tim e,”

M attie was annoyed by M ary’s re­proof, b u t she tossed her head auci- ly, saying, "W ell,-1 m ean to have 'an o th er s ir in g to my bow’ in about two weeks, and I shall flirt w ith Stephen til l then , poor fellow! I t 's a u ,a c tu a l ch arity to him , you know, he loves me so.” And kissing the sedate M ary she ra n ligh tly away.

T rue to h er determ ination , sho lavished all her a tten tio n upon Stephen for a few weeks; and he—- well, h is whole h e a r t was absorbed in the faith less g irl.

One Sunday evening, a f te r th» church was dismissed, he w aited, as usual, upon the w alk to accom pan; M attie home. Judge ot h is su rprise a i she carelessly sw ept by him, clinging lovingly to th e arm of a stranger.

He entered h is hum ble abodo earlier th an was h is wont, th a t Sunday eve. H is m other noticed 5. change in h is appearance. Tho b righ t, happy sm ile was gone, and a se ttled gloom had taken its place.

He re tired to h is room, bu t no t to s leep . H is m other heard h is Blow s te p w earily pacing the floor' tho n ig h t through . She guessed the cause, for M attie 's repu ta tion as a flirt was known far and wide. Yet sh e fe lt ra th e r glad th a t i t w as a t an end, and hoped in a few weoke ho would have fo rgo tten her, and be him self again.

Stephen w ent to h is w ork as u sual the next m orning, and re tijrned in the evening, and; so passed day a f te r day, bu t oh, how shorn of Its simple, peaceful happiness h is home had become. H e would s it and th in k for hours, and w hen spoHgn to by his m other, w ould s ta r t from h is s tu ­por only to relapse Into- th a t Btrange quiet again.

I t soon becam e th e ta lk of the vllfage th a t Stephen M orris w as “ loved cracked,” and no one laughed louder or moi;e h ea rtily over the th in g th an M attie.

Weeks rolled on, and the friends of Mrs. Morris sympathized deeply wtlh her, for Stephen began to no­gleet his work, and the loss of his wages was severely felt by the wid­ow’s little family. After a time Stephen s&emed, to arouso hlmsolf,

b u t as he passod along th e Btreet ho hard th ings repeated, by boys and g irls which ho told in confidence to M attie, proving clearly to him th a t sho was m alting him tho spo rt of tho place.

* * * V * .Ono afternoon there was a g roat

s tir 111 tho qu ie t village of Long Branch. Miss M attie W oolley was to be m arried to a gentlpm an from Now York.

He had been sum m ering a t one of the hotels, and accidentally m eeting M attie, was captivated . It w as the s tran g e r Stephen had seen w ith hei She had a t las t gained the prize sh« had sought. She had vowed she would m arry only Mr w ealth and po­sition, nnd now the day had come th a t would m ake h er a rich m an ’s bride. There was a large company a t her fa th e r’s com fortable home, and m any and choice were th e b ridal g ifts from fam ily and friends. It was arranged for the bridal p a rty to s ta r t the nex t day for Philadelphia, lind i t was th e p leasure of the b ride­groom th a t th e journey should bo made in carriages.,

The hour had come. C arriages were in w aiting , and those who wero to accom pany tho happy p a ir wero already seated. I t Was th e b ride’s tu rn , when ju s t as she w as stepp ing in to th e carriage a te rrib le , h e a r t­rending scream was heard. F or a m om ent all was confusion and In qulry. The bridegroom w ishing, to avoid any u np leasan t scene, i f 'such there was, signaled to the coachm an to proceed. “ No! n o !” said M attie, “ I m ust know the causo of th a t fe a r­ful c ry .” They halted for a few m inutes, when a friend re tu rned an a inform ed them th a t -the scream s came from widow M orris’ home. H er only son Stephen, had been found drowned 111 T u rtle Mill Pond, ana Ills body had ju s t been b rough t to his m other’s house.

Tlio bride sank back Into th e ca r­riag e fa in ting . There was g re a t con­fusion. I t would no t do to proceed upon th e ir journey u n til she was re ­stored, so she was removed from the carriage to the house agalu , and tiie carriages were dismissed.

A few hours la te r M ary sto o d .b j tiie bed upon w hich lay M attie, now Sirs. Giles. M attie requested a ll to leave the room except her friend Mary.,

W hen they were alone sho was about to speak, but the fea rfu l scream s from tho widow’s home sta rtled her again , and she san k back upon tiio lied p rostra ted . At length she said, “Oil, Mary, you said youth was the ‘sow ing’ and age the 'ren^Jng ' tim e; the 'refjp ing ' tim e has corny early to me. W a s . i t I th a t made poor Stephen crazy? Am 1 tiie cause of those aw ful screams'. Tell me, Mary, for I am dreadfu lly w retched.’’

Mary could no t answ er, for she knew too well h e r friend was reap ­ing sooner, m uch sooner, th an she expected. She would gladly have done an y th in g in her power to lessen the g rief of her friend, b u t she could only look on in silence ana pity .

In a few days a f te r th e m arriage ceremony, and the funera l of Ste­phen, who w as buried a t Mechan- icsville, m atte rs moved on In their accustom ed ro u tin e In the village. Mrs. Giles had gone aw ay w ith her husband, and th e widow was sup­ported by th e k indness of friends, b u t th e beBt am ong them a ll was M ary W lnshlp.’ They had o ften m et in class m eet, ing, and the sw eet sing ing of Mary w as full of com fort to her crushed heart. A fter m eeting M ary usually accom panied her home, and on one occasion, as M ary w as about to bid her good-night, the widow said, "How s tran g e i t Ib th a t you can sym pathize w ith suffering, w hen you have been so free from it yourself. Your life has been like an even-spun th read .” M ary kissed the widow, w hile th e g rea t tea rs gathered in her eyes as she sim ply said, “Every h e a rt know eth ItB own b itte rness—

On a b rig h t A ugust day, a few years subsequent to the scenes we have narra ted , th e re wore Indica­tions of unusual In terest In the vi­c in ity of th e camp ground.

I t was the las t day b u t one, of th e m eeting, anil crowds came pouring, into the gates from all th e country around. C arriage . a f te r carriage rolled up to the broad landing, and depositing its happy-hearted burden moved on to give place to others (1873).

Stages, ancien t rockaw'ays, old- fashioned carryalls, th a t had beei) sacred to Sunday use for generations, followed each o th er In rap id succes­sion to th e p latform . T here wais F arm er Jones, froni C hestnu t P lains, in h is g re a t tw o-horse farm w agon; Ills wife, in holiday trim , beside him w ith sm iling, lmppy face, w hile u p ­on th e clear yellow s tra w in th e b o t­tom of tho wagon wero th e rem ain ­ing tw elve m em bers of h is num erous fam ily, la r g e 'a n d sm all. Ju s t 'be­h ind h im followed a p la in , u n p re ­ten tious team , driven by a gentlem an of m arked dem eanor. As th ey reach ­ed th e lan d in g he sp ran g from his seat, and assisted the sweet-faced lady who occupied th e se a t beside him to a lig h t, th en tu rned h is a t te n ­tion to the two ladles upon the back seat. One required no a id ; as she stepped lig h tly upon th e p la tfo rm : b u f the o th er was old and feeble, very feeble, and w as helped from the carriage with g rea t difficulty. Sho was ev idently an object of tender solicitude to the l i t t le g roup th a t had her in charge, and w as soon seated In a cam p-chair, w hile the gentlem an secured h is horse on tho opposite side of th e avenue. When lio re tu rn ed he carefu lly assisted tho old lady, w ith the help of tho young­er ladies, alm ost ca rry in g h er be­tw een them to th e p reach ing stand. Then, a f te r sea ting them com fort­ably beneath a shady oak ,he took ills place in the preachers’ stan d am ong h is m in iste ria l b re th ren .

He was a preacher ot m arked d is­tinction am ong them , aud was cot- diaily greeted by th e p resid ing eld-

who invited him to read th e opening hym n, and lead tho vast

I congregation In prayer.The hym n was announced, “ On

Jo rd an ’s storm y banks I s ta n d .” and w hile it was being sung, as such an audience only could slug it, a l i t t le commotion w as caused by the a r ­rival of a m agiiiilcciit tu rn o u t draw n by fotir noble horses, whose b u rn ish ­ed harness sparkled in tho sun ligh t, and m ade them seem like a superior nice of an im als as they pranced gay- lv on. Coachman and footm an in splendid livery kept guard over th is e laborate equipage, w hich con­tained bu t two persons— a m other and h er li t t le d au g h te r abou t e igh t years of age.

H e w as often b rough t into con tac t w lh M ary W lnshlp, whoso sw eet sing ing w as a g rea t charm of th e social m eetings.

One n ig h t, a f te r th e services were over, tho young preacher asked per­mission to accompany her home; he was charm ed w ith her m anners, and a f te r a few calls, asked of her fa ther fee privilege of y ljltin g the house, as a su ito r for the hand of ills daughter. T he fa th er smiled, and said; "M ary m ust anBwer for hor- B elf.”

A few evenings subsequently , tho young m in ister told M ary of his in ­terv iew w ith h er fa ther, and of h is a ttach m en t to herself. She w as em­barrassed for a few m inutes, then recovering h er composure, said, "I am very much pleased w ith your good opinion ot me, b u t believe me w hen I B a y I cannot become your wife.

Ho thanked h e r fo r h e r candoi, and soon a f te r le f t th e place.

After de­sc rib ing phases ot life, Bhowlng in a ll its vividness, th e reap ing of such cowing, he passed on to tho fu tu re— tho reap ing tim e of th e soul. Many a s in n e r In th a t b rea th less audleuco quailed before th e s ta rtlin g p ic tu re p resen ted to th e ir m inds by tho p reacher. W ith te a rfu l eyes he w arned them of th e ir danger, and w hile alm ost overcome by emotion, hu said, “ T hank God!

"A nd , now,” said the preaohex, “I come to th e joyful p a rt of my se r­mon— th e sowing and th e reap ing ot tho C hris tian .” With m aste rly touch he depicted th e tria ls , crosses and self-denials of many a lover of C hrist; tho sow ing in tears, in pain, in w eariness, in reproaches, in pov­erty , in scorn, in contum ely. H e a l­luded to th e adversities and afflic­tions th a t had been th e h eritag e of m any of God’s .chosen oneB from earliest tim e, w hich had been so g rand ly borne by prophets and m ar­ty rs , and no t less so by th e hum ble and unknow n everyw here, whose subllmA record o f p a tien t, enduring t ru s t was w ritte n on im perishable tab letB ‘above.

"Come, ye blessed of , my fa th er, In h e rit th e kingdom prepared, for you.’ Sowing in sorrow , you reap everlasting joy.

W ho th a t looked upon th a t scono and beheld the r a p t countenance, and s tream ing eyes of th e preacher as ho u tte red these concluding worda could ever fo rget it!

H e sa t down. Tho vast audienco was deeply moved, and gave expres­sion to th e ir feelings In shouts ana joyful exclam ations. B ut there was one soul th a t fed upon Ills concluding words, and felt th a t portion of the serm on was pecu liarly fo r her. Sht, had long desired th a t the Lord of the harvest should call her home.

She seemed r lv ited fo r a m om ent, th en tu rned death ly palo, for, In tho pallid face, around w hich a halo of heavenly lig h t already seemed to beam , she recognized the aged m other of Stephen M orris, and beside h er p illow ing th e g ray head upon h er bosom sa t M ary W inship, whom she had n o t seen for m any years.

As M ary en tered th e ten t, Mrs. Giles b u rst in to tea rs and claspea M ary in h e r arm s. W hen she could command her voice she asked the lady who owned th e te n t, if they could be alone for a few .m om ents.

Spending a Vacation Amid Cliceful HIGH BIDS FOR ASBURYSurroundings. PARK’S BEACH CONCESSIONS

E dito r of T im es:— I am recover­in g from u collapse caused by the heated term in A ugust, and am spending a few days am ong the P ennsy lvan ia hills, w here th e cool sw eet m ountain a ir and the clim b­in g of th e old-tim e range of h ills a re b ring ing back the s tren g th w hich the heat had taken aw ay.

On the first day of my a rriv a l th e re was a reunion of th e Spade­m an fam ily held in th e farm house b u ilt by th e founder of the fam ily. T he fam ily of my hosts is re lated to them , and w ere a n a tu ra l p a r t of th e one hundred and fifty people who a ttended , an d who somehow se­cured an inv itation for me. The house w as of am ple dim ensions, and b u ilt to stand while th e w orld stands, only changed by the addi­tions of modern plum bing for w ate r an d sewer. The orig inal Spackm an w as a poor boy, who came th ere in th e fou rteen th cen tu ry and by a th r if ty in telligence succeeded to the ow nership of a farm , to w hich an ­o th e r was added.

I t w as the r igh teous boast, made a t th is g a th ­ering , th a t no one bearing the Spackm an nam e had ever appeared in th e courts as a crim inal.

The occasion .was celebrated a fte r P re sby terian fashion—*in tab les spread along the house porches, leaded w ith every conceivable prep a rtio n of £ood. healthy fuml. pre­pared in a good, healthy way of cooking, to w hich all th e ripe fru its ot the s e a s o n w ere .p lentifu lly added., and ornam ented .both w ith the (lowers of th e au tum n and th e genial wii of suggestion and repartee— a y.’i whose lium or had n o spice of malice •in it, o r an y th in g th a t could be con­s tru ed in to an offense.

R e v - B i l l s a F l o w e r E n t h u s ia s t .T he immense show er bouquet of

dah lias i« fro n t of the pu lp it a t S t P au l’s church last Sunday aroused cc.usiderable comment because of th e varie ty and beau ty of the blooms. It came from th e parsonage law n and contained some choice sam ples from the great- divisions of th e d ah lia fam ily, including , single, -century , peony flowered, 'co lla re tte , ‘ pompon, show, decorative and cactus varie ­ties.

Rev. J.. IX Bills, th e pastor, has selected h is p lan ts w ith g rea t care and has had a continuous display bloom ing in profusion since the first of Ju ly , betw een fo rty and fifty d istin c t nam ed varie ties we have noticed. Some of them sing le and sim ple and some looking like big chrysanthem um s and peonies.

The peony flowered d ah lia is the la test creation of the dah lia grow ers and is alm ost as s tr ik in g an innova­tion as the cactus dah lia was.

, The , ever - bloom ing bu tterfly bushes, or sum m er lilacs, on th e rea r of the parsonage law n have also bloomed profusely and a ttrac ted much a tten tio n . '

M ay all o f .th em live in God has giyj&n,

Among those s ittin g besicle m e a t the table on the porch w ere two m aiden ladies, tw ins, who had been i com pany enough for each o th e r 1 w ith o u t adding the burden of a m an. One of them had taken the first prize in a Chicago exhibition for th e best pen and in k w ork draw ing of scen­ery on linen , and p ictu res of biru so rea l one could alm ost h ear th e ir sing ing and also th e m urm ur of the brooks as they w ent gurg ling by..
