History.
The Newark Eventng NeleS has ordered
from Messrs. r. Hoe 81 Co. one OF their
splendid perfecting presses, which is to
be built for them January 1. This mag
niicent machine will turn out the Neavs at
the rate Of $4,000 an hour beautifully
printed and folded, carrier size." 1t
will print four, six, eight, ten OF
twelve page papers at proportionate
speed. In fact, it represents all the lat
est Improvements in printing machinery.
The cost OF such a machine as this is at
least S40,0 BOO, and when ali the attendant
expenses are considered the Neaos must
be spending at least $4,000 on this vast
improvement in its facilities.
This is q solid proof of the huge sue
cess which has rewarded the brightness,
the judgement. the enterprise and the
independent courage of the Nclus manage
ment. 1t is only a few years-eight if we
remember correctly-since the NelUs was
started. At the head of it were Henry
Abbott Steele as editor and e.
w. Scudder as manager. They resolved
from the outset to keep no terms with
what was corrupt or detrimental to the
public good. They asked no patronage,
they sought no favors. They started out
to tell the truth, to condemn the wicked
and to uphold the right.
They have done this consistently and
the public have backed them up. They
started out with eight compositors and a
little cylinder press with a capacity of a
couple Of thousands an hour. They had
their trials and their temptations, and
there were times when it was hard to see
daylight ahead. But they never lost
faith and courage, and today they print a
paper which is second to none in the
State in quality, and which in financial
success is ahead of all it's contemporaries.
When The JERSEY CITY News was es-
tabiished we had our eyes on the example
OF our Newark namesake. We have en-
deavored to exercise the same independ-
ence, courage and honesty of purpose,
and we also nave found the
public responsive. We have less than
two years Of age against our contempo-
rary's eight, and our success is not yet
equal to that which it enjoys. But our
future is assured, and we hope in due
time to overtake it on the road of pros
perity and usefulness. We can hardly
hope for anything better.

what will hold him and command his
respect is quite another, says Edward
w. Box in The Indies Home Journal.
A woman's smile, for example, at
tracts q man; but an even temper re-
tains him.
A pretty gown attracts a man; the
knowledge that it was inexpensive de-
lights him.
A pleasant manner attracts q man;
brightness of brain holds him.
A knowledge of how, when and
where to be a little stately, attracts a

A respect for the religious belief of

ir%reverence in woman is to him abom-

A consideration for his comfort, at

A chat in which there is no malice,

A die Home Club.
The Ladies' New York Club, which
has had an existence of less than a
year, grew SO rapidly that many
weeks ago it became apparent that
0 coinmodious quarters must be
secured. Beginning ten months ago
with thirty-five members, the club
now has over four hundred members,
and has moved to a large and hand
somely equipped house at No. 30
West Twenty-second street. The
01nh ~ aw~or;yo1 70 rarNri6o non
veniences for women whose homes
are out of town who might be visiting
the city on shopping expeditions, or
for those who live far uptown, who
make frequent visits to the central
part of the city. 1t was intended,
too, as a temporary home for women
visiting the city from a distance who
do not care, when here alone, to stay
at a hotel. If a member has not the
conveniences at her home for
the entertainment of a large
party she can invite them to meet
her at the club for luncheon or
dinner. An excellent restaurant is
maintained and there are a number
of well arranged sleeping apartments.
The club has other uses than those of
mere conveniences. Last winter there
were a number of entertainments at
the club house, including lectures and
readings. During the coming winter
one evening in each week will be des-
ignated as a club night, when some
entertainment will be provided for
the members and their friends. Mrs.
Henry Wright Shelton and her family
have permanent quarters in the club,
which gives the institution a home
like character. The first two floors of
the new club house are devoted to
parlors and dining rooms, and those
above to the sleeping apartments.
