PASTOR ACCEPTS A XEW CALL. B«*v. Howard H. Brown of South Seavflle- to Preach at Orange. X. J. Announcement was made at a meeting of the congregation of the Washington t Rapti-t Church. Orange, last Friday night that the Rev. Howard H. Brown, of South Seavillr. has accepted a call to the pastorale of the church, A communication was read from tbe clergyman by Emmons Rikar. tbe chnrch clerk.In which Mr. Brown expressed his pleasure With unanimity of the action of tbe church. Tbe new pastor will anaume hi* dutteein Orange abont March IS. Mr. Brown, who ia a member of an old .South Jersey family, was born In Camden, and became a member of the First Baptist Chnrch of that dty when but 18 jests oM. After spending kerrral years in bari*" neas. he felt a call to the ministry, and studied at and graduated from each of the following Baptist Institutions: South Jetty Institute, Bridgeton. X. J : Brown University, Providence. R. I.. and Croxer Theological Seminary, Chester. Pa. Mr. Brown waa ordained in the First Baptist Chnrch of Camden May. 15. 1902. and has served as pastor of tbe Calvary and Memorial Baptist Cbnrches for tha last two years He is a forceful and •arnaat preacher, and wa* selected from a large number of candidates to becofn* —xator of tbe Orange church. Our Severe Winter. The South Jersey coast has not forsome years experienced so hard a winter. An eridenoe of this is the fact that plenty of ire has been harvested six and seven inches thick, while skaters have enjoyed their midwinter frolic to the fall. Great masse* or bergs of ice that have made their way down and out of tbe Delaware have been formed abont the ocean side of the capea. One Item of damage much regretted is the si most total destruction of tbe Qneen Anne's Pier at Cape May Point. Tbe own-, en were of the opinion that daw age to it wonld not result during the winter and that tha expense of taking it down and rebuilding it In the spring might be saved. It ia believed that $2000 will scarcely cover the loot. The summer business of the line la too short to afford.this. The question ' of maintaining a landing place seems to be a aeriona problem to tbe company.
