any of the audience, which numbered about
.500 pianos, mostly children, had time to

force at the praying priest. The stone struck
Father Spepsr squarely on the head, inflict-
ing two ugly gushes several inches in length
on hiaacalp, from whicth blood flowed in
streams.
The allair almost caused a panic; tbechil-
drua, yelling and screaming at the top of
their voices, ran from the church. The as-
sailant attempted to escape, but was cap
tured and kicked up. The wound on the
priest’lhead is painful, but is not thought to

J. Manning, Two hours after the assault he
was sent to the workhouse for four months.
He refused to give any account of binnelf.
Acton at a Hospital Benefit.
Intro Bunsen, N. J., July Bit—The Ocean
theatre was crowded with the best people at
the Branch to witnem the actor-s’ benefit per-
formance for the Monmouth Memorial boo

Mr. and Mrs Oliver Doud Byron, Mrs John
Drew, Marshall 1’. Wilder, Miss Theresa
Vaughn, W. A. Mestayer, Charles T. Paraloe,
T. W. Keene, Joseph “'heelock, Frank Dan-
iels, Nellie Mcflenry, Joseph Haworth, Fred
G. Murder, Neil Burgms, John Webster,
Charles T. Ellis and many others. About
$1,500 was netted, which will be at once
turned into the hospital treasury. The af-

Better than Drugs.
The following information from Mari-
an Harland’s magazine, the Home-Mak-
er, ‘will rather startle some people:
large trees in the near neighborhood
oi a house may damage the foundations
. ot‘ a trail building by the development
of their lateral roots; but from a bygi-
mile puintof view their benefit, on the
whole, outweighs all objections. They
mitigate the glare of the summer sun by
a screen opens just when sunshine
h moat-needed, and for prospect purposes
it iaeasy enough to cut out vistas in
front of balconies or sitting room win-
dows. Moreover, leaf trees exhale oxy-
gen and absorb a variety of noxious
gases. "A fine tree park,” says the Swiss
Illihl'ian Schrodt. “is a better perserver
of health than a dozen drug stores;" and,

‘, 'L'antno, July ill—During the great stem 7
, [lure were fifty-four alnnus of tire, many 1
from lightning, and most from the destruo
lieu of the insulation of the electric light
wires. Fire, water, wind and hail combined
caused a loss probably in excess of $1,M,000.
The sewers of the city wereoriginally planned
with a view to the necessities of a population
of not more than 1w,000. With a population
nine or ten times as great, it ’n vastly over-
taxcd. In some of the principal streets in the
business center the sewers are only twelve
inches in diameter.
