Jackson—Preached About the Har
vest.
The Harvest Home was celebrated
in Simpson M. E, church yesterday
and the pastor, Rev. S. T. Jackson,
preached powerful sermons at both
morning and night services. It was a
day of gathering all the members of
the church, both old and infirm, when
a general welcome time was had. The
rain interfered considerably with this
as many of those for whom the service
was especially intended, could not get
oat.
The church was beautifully decor
ated with signs of a bountiful harvest.
Fruits and vegetables were heaped
high about the pulpit. The pastor
referred to these pointing out the
blessing the people had received. To
day the good things aie being dis
tributed among those most worthy of
help.
Last night Mr. Jackson preached an
excellent sermon from the text, “And
the Harvest Time (Jame. ” He told
the parable of the enemy sowing
tares. He linened the separation of
the grain from the tares to the final
separation of the good and bad souls.
He warned the people not to bury
their talent but to make good use of
it and at the day of reckoning they
could give a good account of them
selves.
Mr. Jackson said he wanted to im
press upon everyone that in every life
there is a harvest time. He prayed
that all might be ready for it when it
came.

MONMOUTH BATTLE MONUMENT
At a meeting of the Battle Monu
ment Commissioners at Freehold, to
arrange plans for the monument to be
erected on Monmouth battle field, the
proposition to complete the base of
the monument was discussed, and
Secretary Parkerjvvas directed to notify
\ the war department at Washington
\jhat there were sufficient, fumls on
htihd now to execute a suitable design
whidi^might be approved there, as
providetl by law. An endeavor will
be made to secure a design which will
truly represent certain models of can
non used during the revolution, to
be placed upon the three corners of
the base which now appear to be un
finished. Tne original plan contem
plated something of the kind, and the
granite pedestals were left so that the
design might sometime be completed.
During the meeting, President Theo
dore W. Morris said he hoped some
time to see one of the three cornered
plots in the town set aside and im
proved with a memorial of some de
scription, to the soldiers of the civil
war. He pledged $500 to that end.

Rev. Percy R. Ferris Told ot the
Mormons in His Sermon
Last Night.
TO UNSEAT SENATOR.
Declared that One of Nations Greatest
Peril was Indifference to Questions
Until it was Too Late—W. C. T. U. was
Present—Sermon was of Much Interest
and Timely.
Rev. Percy R. Ferris, pastor of the
Baptist church, preached on the sub
ject of Mormonism last night. There
was a large congregation present, in
cluding the members of the local
branch of tne Women’s Christian
Temperance Union. During the ser
mon, the pnstor told of some of his
experiences while in Salt Lake City,
Utah, last February. His words were
listened to with a great deal of inter
est and created a deep impression
upon those who heard.
Mr. Ferris took his text _ from
the first verse of the third chapter of
Second Timothy. “This know also,
that in the last days, perilous times
shall come.’’ He first dwelt upon the
evils of the day and said one of the
greatest perils to the American nation
was the indifference shown by the
people until it was too late. He then
urged his hearers to take up the fight
against mormonism before that organ
ization became too powerful to be
overcome.
Mr. Ferris told of being at the min
ister’s conference in Salt Lake City,
where the petition against the seating
of Reed Smoot ns United States Sen
ator from Utah, was first taken up.
He told of the earnestness of the men
there and how they declared that with
earnest support of Christians through
out the country they could win their
fight. Mr. Ferris declared that no
religion which supported sin, such as
polygamy was, could be a Christian
religion and it was wrong in the sight
of God. He admitted that in his
country every man, whether Jew or
Gentile, Catholic or Protestant, had a
right to worship God as he saw fit,
but the minister pointed out that
mormonism was not a religion of God,
and therefore it could not be classed
with the others.
The grounds upon which the min
isters of Salt Lake City want Mr.
Smoot unseated in the Senate, Mr.
Ferris said, were that he was a polyg
amist and was therefore a violator of
the laws of the State which he is
supposed to represent in the national
congress. When Utah was admitted
as a State it was forced to pass a law
prohibiting polygamy. One minister
at the Utah conference declared that
he could prove Mr. Smoot was a
polygamist. It is pointed out that a
violator of the State law should not
be allowed a seat in the national
legislature. Mr. Smoot’s friends
claim he is not a polygamist.
The second ground for opposing Mr.
Smoot is that his first allegiance is to
his church and hie country second.
All Mormon apostles, of which he is
one, take such an oath.
Mr. Ferris said that the movement
to unseat Mr. Smoot was in charge of
the W. C. T. TJ. all over the country
and a united effort was being made to
flood congress with petitions and
private letters showing the popular
feeling in the matter. He urged the
people oi rertn Amuoy to ao wnai
they could, recommending private
letters addressed to Senators Kean
and Dryden.
A solo by F. R. Conklin, “Lead
Kindly Light, ” at the close of the
service, was a pleasing feature.

A PRETTY GOWN FOR AN AFTER- '
NOON TEA OR EVENING RE
CEPTION.
The above model would be most ]
suitable to be worn to an afternoon \
tea or reception, or could also be worn ,
as a theatre gown during the winter j
months. It is of pale blue broadcloth.
First the blouse is made of white or
creamv cup lace. The jacket effect of |
the broadcloth is then put over it and
sewed in on the shoulder seams.
Where the cloth is cut and shaped it
is finely stitched all around with three
rows of stitching.
The eyelet holes are all worked in
white silk, and the lacers are also of
white.
The foil puff of the sleeve is of the
lace, and there is a deep flounce of
the same around the edge of the skirt,
which is seven-gored, with the lacing
going down each seam.
CAPITOL TO 5
BE CROWDED.
When Extra Session Convenes
Thursday Senate will Occupy!!
Court Room.
WORK MOVES SLOWLY.
Trenton, Oct. 12:—The Senate will
again occupy the Court of Chancery
rooms, when the extra session of the
Legislature convenes Thursday.
Arrangements have also been made
for a meeting of the State Board of
Pharmacy the same day, and the
members of tne latter body will have
to conduct their examinations in the
apartments of the Supreme Court.
Thus the entire available space, on
the second floor of the capitol, will be
occupied and, if the courts are called
upon to meet for any purpose, the
justices and vice chancellors will be
compelled to sit in the smaller chamb
ers, in the moro obscure portions of
the building.
