Tiii;ONLY SETTLEMENT OF ITS KIND IN*
JKRSKY CITY—ITS DISPENSARY.This has oeen a busy nummer for Whltt'.er House,
in Jersey City. Situated aa It is In Grand-st.. abusy thoroughfare, crj within a short distance
of a great sugar refinery, a soap factory, a railroadterminus and ferry and in the midst of a densepopulation of all nationalities, the torrid heat has
added to Its work in all departments.Its playground, to be sure, la only the backyard
or the hotus, With little grasF and only two Bcrubby
ailanthus trees to Rive shade: but when ItIs remem-bered that this Is the only place for blocks around
where quiet can be found, itIs small wonder that Its
usefulness has been limited only by !ts capacity^ ItIs, Indeed, the only spot of the l<itul In Jersey City.
Although the plot Is only Mx3U feet, ar.fi a part
of that space Is occupied by an old shed l»i onecorner, there are a hammock, two tents, two swings,
a croquet set. several scats, and last, but no' kwst,
a sand pile. Every day from thirty to forty childrenhave been entertained there. Mothers often ac-companied their children, an.l "littlemothers." wornby premature burdens, found rest while some oneelse looked after their charges.
Since early May parties of from six to eight
have been sent to the country on excursions utmostdally. The co-operative plan amon* its workersIs a feature of Whlttler House, .md those who havecountry homes offer their grounds-' aad conveyances
to city mothers and little children for such occa-sions. During the season the Mothers' club, the
oldest organisation connected with tbe settlement,
was entertained at Kasl orange.Much .loy Is brought to the people by tbe flower
mission work. Kadi week boxes, barrels andhampers of flowers are received and distributed.As the fruit began to ripen, k'"<l"-s. pears andapples have been coiniiiK like the Mowers. Untilcool weather comes the picnics and distribution offruit and flowerß will continue, but the playgroundclosed with the opening of school
<Jnn thousand cases receive treatment In Ilie dis-pensary connected with the settlement every year.

Kenneth Cauthera had been,working at $:i a week as a general assistant inthe emery wheel factory of Levy Best, at M*
-!."» Vesey-st. His duties gave him access to theoffice. Fahlbush said he had bees sent "awayfrom home by his father because the latterthought he stole, since leaving home, severalmonths ago. he had been employed on the WardLin*'steamship Esperanza. in the Cuban service.
According to the story, in which the boysagreed, young Fahlbush returned home a fewdays ago from a voyage and told wonderfulstories of the We.-i Indies. He said if theycould but raise- fun, their fortunes would heassured in Porto Hi...
On Tuesday night, according to Cauthers, hetook three checks from Mr. Best's book, afterclosing hours, and with these joined his com-panion. They filled one out. they said, for$V-M>O.signing Mr Bests name, and making it payableto James K. Biggs or bearer, whose name wasduly indorsed. Then they made preparationsfor the departure Is the Antilles. Two gripswere tilled with food and a third with articlesof clothing. Bright and early they went to theImporters and Traders' • National Bank andwaited for the doors to open. Fahlbush went In.Cauthers waited around the- corner.
When rshlhnsh shoved the $1,200 checkthrough the window the paying teller felt sus-picious, and. after looking over both the boyand the paper, decided to consult a superior.The assistant cashier, Henry H. Powell, on thepretence that the money had not yet come upfrom the vaults, held Fahlbush waiting whilehe sent a messenger with the check, to Air.Best's offlt'e.
When the emery wheel manufacturer saw theforged check he was dumfounded. He hurriedto the bank, and when, OB entering, he saw astrange boy he was still more mystified. Heneither knew where the blank check could havebeen obtained by the young man nor how hahad come- to be selected as the victim. Fahl-bush denied that it was a forgery, and his onlyexplanation was that a Brooklyn boy had givenIt to him to be cashed.
Detective McVeigh, of the Church-st. station.who had been called in. happened to see a hoypeeping in the doorway, and immediately rushed,
out and collared him. It was Cambers, gripsin hand, who had come to sec what detainedhis partner. Both boys then confessed, accord-ing to the detective. They were taken to theCentre-st. police court. where charges of forgerywere made against them. They waived exam-ination and were held In$"•*> bonds.

the patriots who furty years ngo weWad the coun-try In fenewe.l bonds of love and union, which haveresulted In the greatest and most progressive nationthe world has ever known. As the ranks of the o!d.heal and, alas, too often crippled and halt, veteranspassed. State by State, department by department.cheers and applause were renewed, and the sight ofthe tattered battle flags filled the blurts of tbepeople almost to a point of bursting.
At Bond and Superior sts. the veterans passed be-

One of the newest trimmings for the modishautomobile tie. is a decoration of heavy braid, Instriking black and white effects. Another oddfancy Is an edging: of little metal cord or quaintpattern:* worked out in this material on the endsof the tie. Tiny buttons of metal or pearl on thecollar part are equally in favor.
Sleeves are to be made with more fulness aboutthe upper pan than formerly, and there is atendency appearing to set little epaulets over theshoulders to give a broad effect or to broaden outthe collars on the sid«- as far as possible Some ofthe new silk waists haw the sleeves pleated orgathered from top to bottom, so that the pleats orfolds run horizontally across the arm.
White felt, always becoming, is to be worn thisseason, which means a decided novelty In hats,since this has not been seen In some years. Afetching white felt trlcorne trimmed with blacksatin and great black ostrich plumes is one of themost youthful looking hats of the season. Thesatin folds softly about the crown and Is caughtwith a large buckle In front, terminating 1 In a

A charming tea gown of old rose surah has theneck cut.in a v, with wide revere of lace. Thesleeves are cut long, falling In deep points, andedged with several lacy raffles. This long, pointedstyle, by the way. Is fascinating In a neglige gown,and much chosen just now. Elbow sleeves how-ever, caught in a couple of deep puffs, and finish.-.!with frills of lace, are, also fashionable. Scarfs oflace, flowing down the front, add a grace to suchgarments which few other styles of trimming caneffect. ,!-¦¦•

ANOTHER 11KAVY PURCHASE. WHICH 118
SAYS PROVKS A GOOD DEMAND.Dealers In print cloths in this city had another
surprise yesterday in the announcement that M. C.D. Borden had started a further rise In the price ofsuch goods by an extended purchase at the marketprice of two and three-quarters cejUs a yard, offrom two hundred thousand to three hundred thou-sand pieces.
About a month ago, when the other mill ownersof Kail River said that because of the scarcity inthe demand they would have to cut the wag/a* oftheir employes. Mr. Borden. as announced at thetime in The Tribune, stepped In and purchased allthe goods offered at a figure higher than the marketprice. In thl-> way he hushed all talk of strike. Thesecond purchase Is regarded a* along the same linesas the first. When Mr. Hor.leti was asked for whatreason* he bad made the second purchase he an-swered:
"It was only a business proposition, and showsthat there Is a good demand for print cloths, inspite .< all that may be- said to the contrary."

THK DAY THAT SUMMER DIED.
The day that summer died we saw a changeCreep slowlyo'er the sunshine of her face
—A fleeting beauty, dim and whollystrange.
Unlike the.brightness of her earlier grace.We felt a chill In every breeze that blew
And saw across the meadows green and wideA veil of frost that silvered all the dew
The day that summer died.
The day that summer died a red leaf fellFrom" out the maple's green and stately crest.
And all the slender fern leaves in the de.llin robes of white and palest told were dressed.
A late rose she-! its petals one by one.The poplar stirred Its trembling leaves and sighed.
A slowing dahlia blossomed In the sun—• The day- that, summer died.
The dny that summer died the forest streamCrept' forth to catch the blueness Of the skies.
The hills grew dim and hazy as a dreamOr like a vision viewed by tearful eyes
A growing shadow, chill and vaguely drear.Swept o'er the landscape like a rising tide.
And winter's footsteps sounded all too nearThe day that summer died.
