At Calvary Baptist church yesterday morning the pastor, Bev. Mr. Samson, in voking the divine blessing, prayed for the recovery of one of the most prominent and oldest members of the church, Deacon Tnos. Ailing, the sash and Blind manufacturer, whom the community will regret to learn Is critically ill at his residence on West Chapel street. Deacon Ailing has been pros trated for about three weeks past with what is said to be congestion of the brain, compli cated with an old trouble which has more or less impaired his health for several years. At the evening service at this church the pastor gave an earnest and impressive appeal to the young men. In these days of hurry and enterprise foi tunes are often fast accu mulated. But while ambition for wealth is laudable within certain limits there is one goal, one destination, one crown which if not won, all else counts for nothing; all other conquests sink into insignificance. The pas tor earnestly besought hiB hearers to seek with all their hearts for the true riches, for the gold that has been tried in the furnace for the treasure which oan never fade away. ne place of Miss Ualtney, toe so- nrano, who is indisposed with a severe cold. was' very acceptably filled by Mrs. Samson wife of the pastor. AT CHRIST CHURCH. The Bev. Percy Webber of Tioga, N. Y. has declined the call tendered to him by the parish of Christ church and will probably accept a call to the Church of the Good Shepherd in Hartford. Yesterday morning Bev. W. J. Simonson, assistant rector of St. James' church, Brooklyn, N. Y., assisted by Bev. Mr. Osborne of this city, officiated at (jnriBt cnurcn, the former preaching the sermon. . It is now stated by some of the members of the cnurcn that Bev. Mr, Osborne may be offered the position as pas tor. D WIGHT FLACK CHUHCH. The pulpit was supplied yesterday by Bev. P. M. Snyder, of Middletown, in exchange with the pastor. His theme in the morning was the importance to the Christian of the discipline of temptation, looking at it as a God-given schooling for the develop ment and ennoblement of (Jhristlan charac ter. .The evening lesson was drawn from the text: "These all do contrary to the deoree of Uassar, saying tnere Is another king, one Jeaus." The folly and the puerility of the original charge was shown and the speaker pain tea toe reality of that kingdom as it ex ists to-day, making the ancient cry of these frenzied Jews a prophecy which the future wonderfully fulfilled. The speaker likened the temporal kingdom of Csesar to the king dom which exists in each heart and over which selfishness or sin strives to hold sway. It was an instructive discourse of more than ordinary power. A HARVJCST FESTIVAL FINK SINGING BEAUTI FUL DECORATIONS STO. Many people were unable to obtain seats at tbe harvest festival at the St. John street M, E. church last evening. A large num ber stood throughout the entire service. The following was the order of exercises: Processional Swell the Anthem. ..Choir and Sund&v Rohnnl Reading Scriptures Pastor song we welcome xou All BADoath School invocation, by the pastor, concluding with the Lord's Draver chanted br the whnnl Anthem Thou One nest Thv Hand Choir i;ongraiuiatory itemarKS fastor Hymn For the Beauty of the Earth Congregation Recitation October Days A member of the Sabbath School Song Thanks be to God School and Choir Responsive Reading Superintendent and Schcol Exercise Recitation and Singing Primary Class Offertory Andante Pastorale Organ QuintetHow Good is He the Giver Choir Recitation A Legend of Harvest Member of School Hymn Before the Lord Congregation Allegory Mother Nature Class of Youug Ladies Song We Plough the Fields Choir and School Recitation Harvesting, by a harvester. Member of School Anthem Harvest Home Choir Responsive Reading Superintendent and School Doxology Old Hundred Congregation Aeneuicuon. The processional, by the choir of thirty singers, was a beautiful feature of the exer cises. They entered the church on the two central aisles, each singer carrying a minia ture banner consisting of a letter constructed of raw cotton and surrounded with flowers. The two lines met at the chancel, where each letter was received and placed on a line of invisible wires hitherto unseen by the audi ence, forming wtaen completed the sentence, Thou crownest the year with Thy goodness." The chanting of the Lord's Prayer by the entire school with bowed heads was exceedinelv impressive. The resnon aivo singing by choir and Sabbath school was delightful. The literary exercises were nearly ail new, several of them being prepared expressly for the occasion. The anthem "Harvest Home," by McFar ren, was rendered by the choir with a delica cy of expression quite pleasing. The congre gation participated heartily in the various parts of the service assigned to them. The little folks under the direction of Mrs. Pres ton also acquitted themselves admirably as usual. Superintendent Camp presided with his nsual efficiency. Pastor Wyatt in his congratulatory remarks gave interesting sta tistics of the crops. A commendable feature of tbe programme was its moderate length, the exercises being brought to a close at 9 o'clock. The decorations were unique and beauti ful and were . arranged under Mr. C. A. Morse's direction. In front of the desk was a bank of apples, filling the church with their odor. The bank was of greenings, through tbe center of which ran the motto "Harvest Home," the letters made of the red Baldwin apples. On the platform behind this on either side stood an immense pump kin crowned with a pyramid of fruits and vegetables. Between these monarch pump kins was a sheaf of wheat whose heavy heads hung gracefully down with the rich grain. In the background were branches of autumn tinted leaves contrasting beauti fully with the golden grain and the many colored fruits. On the front of the altar railing hung rows of yellow corn and over these a motto stretched the entire length of the altar, whose letters were made of white bordered with flowers. The motto expressed the sentiment of all the large congregation Thou crownest tne year with thy goodness." It is not possible to give the details of this most beautiful decoration. It was said by all those who saw it to be the richest and most chaste of anything of its kind they had ever seen. We understand it is to be photo graphed. COLLEGE STREET CHURCH. Large congregations were present morning and evening. The praise service in the evening was very interesting and consist ed of organ voluntary, responsive readings, anthems, including one with solo by Mr. A. Pearson tenor, prayer by pastor, solo "Just as I am" by Miss Sophie L. Northrop con tralto and an address by Dr. McLane. The singing by the male quartette in the morning was unusually nne. A Slla-ht Fire. A slight fire occurred at the residence of Thomas Ailing, 1,389 Chapel street, Satur day evening. A lace curtain fanned by a draft caught fire and in a second the entire front of the room was in ablaze. The prompt use of two of the Hayward hand grenades by Mrs. Ailing extinguished the fire. The loss was $50. Sliver Wedding. Ex-Alderman Charles Gerner and wife cel ebrated their silver wedding last evening at their residence on Nicoll street. A large number of friends participated in the happi ness and pleasures of the festival occasion and bestowed many beautiful reminders of the high esteem in which Mr. and Mrs. Ger ner are held. . A STOLEN RIDE. Dlxwell Avenne Bonefnls Steal Horse and Abuse Him. About 7 o'clock last evening a horse and bnckboard wagon were stolen from the rear of Benham's feed store on Broadway.

Sidney B. West, a business man of Bed Bank, N. J., was in this city yesterday in company with a couple of detectives, in search ot his wife and child. The former eloped last Friday with another man named Fred S. Rockwell, manager of the Monmonth skating rink and owner of a tea store. Bock- well formerly resided in this oity and mar ried a woman who resided here also. His wife is still living. She was taken ill some, time ago, and in hopes of a change for the better was taken to her mother's home in this city. Her mother is well known here, and out of respect for the old lady's feelings her name is not mentioned in these columns. Her daughter's illness developed into insan ity, and she was taken to the insane asylum at Middletown. Mrs. Jacques, mother of Mrs. West who eloped, kept house for Rockwell, who was very frequent visitor at Mrs. West's, and it was said by the town gossips that something startling would soon occur. Friday last Rockwell left Bed Bank for this city for the purpose of taking hiB little four-year-old son, Ben. to his grandmother's here. The mother of the child before her recent ill ness had requested her mother to take care of her child if anything should ever happen to her. The grandparent wrote on to Rockwell a short while ago requesting him to Bend on little Ben to her home in this city. Rockwell on last Friday told his neigh bora in Bed Bank that he was going away for a short vacation, as his business was break ing his health down. He took an afternoon train to this city accompanied "by Mrs. West and her little daughter Maud, aged eight. and his son. Mrs. West wrote a note to her husband before her departure saying that Bhe eloped with Rockwell because she loved him better than she did him. She stated that she left him through no fault of his. Detec tives were at once Bet upon the track of the couple. Detective Patterson, of lied .Bank, has been in this city since Saturday morning. A telegram was received at the po lice headquarters Saturday for Detective Pat terson, but he has not asked the aid of the police in looking up the elopers. The local detectives say that he is working quietly on the case. Another telegram was received at police headquarters yesterday which asked the police to watch a house at No. 387 Grand avenue as Bockwell has relatives there and is supposed to have visited them after his de parture from Bed Bank. The police say that the people who reside at the above number disclaim all knowledge of Bockwell. Mrs. West first met Bockwell in a skating rink which he was running in Red Bank. Rock well formerly lived here. He was married here and then removed to Bed Bank. niLFORDS ROBBERY. Farmhand Robs Mr. George of $300 Worth or Property. Piatt The house of George F.

He wears a full beard and has not been shaved in six months. GOOD SAMARITANS' MEETING. A Large Attendance Able Addresses And an Interesting Entertainment. At the Good Samaritans' meeting held in Carll's Opera House last night there was a large and appreciative audience. Two able and interesting addresses were delivered and a pleasing and appropriate entertainment followed. William H. Conklin condncted the exercises. Musio was furnished by Lan- drigau's orchestra. After singing by the audience and prayer by Vice President J. H. Moore President Conklin alluded to the dis turbance which was created by a number of boys in the gallery at the meeting held the previous week. He cautioned the boys igainst a repetition of it and told them what would surely follow in case they again dis turbed the meeting. In the course of his remarks Mr. Conklin referred to the faithful work done by the Samaritans and then ur gently invited all present to assist the Sa maritans in carrying out their humanitarian labors. Sylvanus Butler was intro duced and made an earnest and forcible appeal to all present to help on the glorious temperance cause which is so beneficial to the race, unaries A. Baldwin followed in an eloqnent and logical manner, depicting the rum wmcn aioonoi causes and counselling all, and especially the young, to form habits of temperance and sobriety and thus become useful citizens. Professor Usboin, a member ot 1-Anan- gan's orchestra, executed a violin solo in an admirable manner, eliciting hearty applause. Receiving an encore theiprofessor rendered another selection, which was equally well re ceived. Howard W. Durand sang "The Wearing of the Blue," a temperance song, which was sung finely, and he received hearty applause. President Uonklin announced tfiat next 8undav night there would be a choice pro gramme presented at Carll's Opera Honse.

Chief of Police Bollman received a tele gram from South Bergen, Jersey City, N. J., vesterday afternoon stating that the man found dead at that place and supposed to have come from New Haven had been identi fied as Charles Morris, who formerly re sided on Brewery street in this city with an uncle, a harne.s maker of the same name. Henry W. Bale, an ex-New Havener now doine business in South Beraen, identified the remains of the young man. Chief Boll man received another telegram requesting him to ask the dead man's uncle if he would care for the remains and dispatched a message to the honse and word was brought baok that the uncle declined. The chief then telegraph ed to Jersey City the uncle's answer and the town authorities will probably inter the re mains. Chief Bollman said that he heard the vonntr man had committed suicide, and then again he heard that he was murdered ia a barroom ngnt. xsotnuig uemuie cuuiu be learned last night how the young man met his death. The remains when found were taken to Shear's undertaking establishment. The story of the young man's career, as told by a man last night, Charles Perkins, who knew and associated with him when he was here, is as new as it is sad. When in this city young Morris re sided with his nnole, which was about seven years ago. He was then a good looking and careless fellow. He spent money freely. He became very reckless and quarrelled with his uncle, who was badly wronged by his nephew, who did it thoughtlessly. He left here and went west, and his whereabouts have been unknown to his relatives here until the fact that he was dead was learned on Saturday. BARTHOLDI DAY.

A Chicago exohenge says: "Mr. William Bedmund and Mrs. Thomas Barry deserve public commendation for presenting during this deplorable period of farces and sensational dramas a play ro mantic in tone, sparkling and exciting in action, and withal intelligently conceived. designed and interpreted. The play is one of intense interest and this interest gathers its strength not from trashy sentiment, sen sational situations and unchaste emotions, but from a legitimate plot founded upon his trionic events, portrayed by excellent dia logue, correct and handsome costumes and excellent mountings." The Evening Journal says in a half column notice of the perform ance: "It can be truthfully said that it is a good play and admirably presented." Cnt Roses.
