CLUB NOTES.

The last report of the Membership
Committee of the Jersey City Athletic
Club shows that that organization is con-
stantly growing. The total membership
at the first OF last year WAS 449, while this
year it was 49S. an increase OF 40.
There will be a stag progressive euchre
party at the Palma CLUB next Friday
evening. aud it promises to be an enjoy
able affair. The Card Committee, con-
sisting of J. Herbert Potts, Chairman;
+. C. Barlow and William Middlege. is
going to provide some unique and novel
prizes for the winners.
There are now twenty-one applications
for membership before the Committee on
Membership of the Jersey City Athletic
Club.
The equestrian contingent of the Palma
Club, though not so large as 1t was last
year numerically. is much larger in other
ways. Every member can now ride with
out danger of falling off and there is no
longer any necessity for %strapping John
kellar and Walter Kidder to their
saddles. Monday night the boys had a
music ride. That is, seven accomplished
musicians fiddled until the ~perspiration
rolled down their cheeks and blew
through their horns until they were red
III the face while the boys gallop ed, can
tered and trotted around the tan bark
arena obedient to the command of Prof.
Stein.

Graduates.

The demand on the school for teachers
is still greater than the supply. Since
last year The two new departments or
Physical Culture aud Manual Training
have been added to the course of study.
OF til ese the report says:-
In Physical Culture the basis Is special
work and instruction in hygiene for tue
individual, depending Oh the students
physical history and on such a physical
examination as is necessary TO prescrip-
tiou. In general the work Is hygientc,
educative and pedagogical.
OBJECTS OF THE PLAN.
The purpose is three-told, the first
division merging into the second. The
primary object is, by regular general ex-
~ercises, TO promote AS far as may be the
students own health, that the mental
power MAJ be at the maximum. These
exercises are, secondly, of u nature to i'm
prove the carriage II physique and to
make the body the ready servant of the
will. The agents relied upon are military
marching. free hand exercises, exercises
with light dumb bells. wapds, Indian
clubs and '"chest weights" Finally, the
intention is to give the student a certain
amount of drill in exercises which can be
usel in schools where appliances are not
at hand, the bearing OF these exercises
upon the health, physique and bodily
control being brought out during the
course in physiology.
III nlduuhl ITdluluR tue blul IA W ue-
velop the inventive, constructive and ex-
ecutive powers of the mind, and train the
eye aud hand. The student is taught the
use of tools and their care. the nature of
woods, their strength and treatment, the
elementary principles of joining, con-
struction, finishing, &c. One feature Of
the application of these principles is
made in constructing apparatus in the
department of natural sciences. The
following description of the new addition
to the school and the uses to which it is
put will be found interesting: The new
building is so located as to connect the
old buildings, and thus enable the pass
ing from one part to another of the EN-
tire institution without going out of
doors. 1t contains on the first floor a
chemical laboratory, 2Sx36 feet. with
store-room 11X15, and dark room 11x12. A
roo III for physics, 2Sx3S. with u work
room 10x28. A manual training room,
2Sx55, with tool-rooni attached. A ii.
brary-room, 28x55.
On the second floor Is a gymnasium 40x-
1872. with two dressing rooms, the one
2Sx52. the other 2Sx4O, each provided with
suitable baths. The gymnasium Is fitted
up at a cost of over $1,000 with apparatus
for the treating of every set of muscles
thai should receive attention.
The entire third hoor Is occupied as an
auditorium, seated with opera chairs set
it circular form, and accommodates the
entire school. 1t Is no longer Normal
and Model, but 'Our School," Thu en-
tire structure is now a credit to the
State, aud one of the tinestin the country.
The entire plumbing OF the old buildings
has been overhauled aud put in first class
sanitary condition.

RAILROAD T

A understanding locomotive has
just been completed in Bloomington, ILL.,,
Tor use on the Chicago and Alton Rail-
road. Not a puff of smoke escapes from
it.
The different railroad labor organiza-
tions have decided to form a new fedora
ton. A meeting will be held in Febru-
airy at st. Louis to perfect the arrange

The "Blue Line'' hit another freight
train one night last week, near Plaintield.
This sort of thing seems like mismanage-

IL something is not done loon to make
such occurrences impossible people will

The Caldwell Railroad is said to have
been transferred to the Erie, and it Is also
stated that some important changes will
be made in its operation. The Erie has
operated the road since 1t started last
year. If this latest report is true, IL does
not offer much encouragement for the
extension of the line, for the Erie is not
doing much In that line.

TRENTON, Jan. 25. IS92.-The annual
report of the State Normal School has
been filed. The following extracts from
the report of Principal Green will be
found interesting. The history Of the
school has been full Of meaning to the
State. During the ~thirty-siX years of its
existence 1t has graduated 1910 students.
These graduates have nearly all become
teachers in the State. The number of
graduates, however. Is by no means the
full measure of the value of the school.
The influence of its example. the number
of undergraduates who come in contact
with it, and the example of the Model
School are all potent factors in our State
system.
The total value of the State School
buildings ana appurtenances is given at
$3O6, 900. The Normal School has in-
creased its enrolment from forty-three
10 1926; the Model from 1875 to 54l, while
the annual appropriation of $4,000 re-
mains the same, it being supplemented
only by the $1,000 provisi on
al Scholarship fund. New Jer-
sey is far behind our most enlightened
States in the support it gives the Normal
ocnOOlS, anu III tHe c~oHlpathti'o hunioot
OF these titutio
The Normal enrolment exceeds that OF
last year by sixty, and the quarterly en-
rollment holds a close average, there be-
ing a decrease of but eleven, while last
year there was a decrease of thirty-three.
The number enrolled in the Model ex-
ceeds that OF last year by fifty-two. aud
the average per quarter by
ffty-four.
TABLE OF GRADUATES.
The following table will be interesting,
as showing the number of graduates and
under graduates of our Normal School in
the various counties. according To the
State Superinterdent's report for 1890 81.
1t is not an absolutely correct table as TO
the number of our graduates in u county
at this time, as it does not account for
the number of previous graduates that
changed counties this fall, but it gives a
good ideal .F

pon,t Go Too Ear. Gentlemen.

We are sorry to see the friends of
the Free Library curtailment bill
adhere to the $4,000 limit. We want
to see the bill passed, and We believe
this figure will kill it. We believe
that with a minimum appropriation
of S15. 900 it will go through with bells
on.
As it is. drafted, too. we believe "a
serious blunder has been made. The
terms of the latter clauses are such
that it is doubtful il the Trustees
would not be restrained by it from
spending the amount now in their
hands or payable to them on account
of the judgments against the city.
Surely this is not contemplated. If it
is, the bill ought to be simply jumped
on by the Legislature.
The city ought to ask for and get
two things-first, the confirmation of
this years appropriation OF $4,000.
and second, the power to restrict fu-
ture appropriations to $4,000 a year
if the financial condition of the city
makes such restriction necessary.
Any further attempt to embarrass
the Trustees or impair the usefulness
of the Library should befrowned upon
by all citizens and blocked by all con-
scientious legislators.

BOYS AND EVANGELISM.
The Rev. Mr.. Hammond and the Public
s,.. Schoo Children.


Yesterday afternoon at half past three
o'clock crowds of children right from the
public school filled the Tabernacle.
Most of the boys were full of cold Nick".
and were not at all slow in giving the
Evangelist to understand that they were
out for u good time. When the hymns
were they beat the air with
their fists and kept time with their
feet - with more Zest than harmony.
But when Mi. Hammond read the story
of the Cruci6Xion and talked to them of
Christ's sufferings in their stead they
qui, ted down and listened with marked
attention while the Evangelist explained
to them their relation to God.
AT the close OF the talk many thronged
about the pulpit and expressed a desire
to become Christians.
Last night the singing led by cornet
aud piano was an especial feature of the
services. Many of the hymns sung had
been written by the Evangelist himself.
the Rev. l. w. Hathaway said, that if
the Christian people of lower Jersey City
did not enter heartily into the WORK at
the first, they would be ashamed of them
selves before the meetings were ended.

Mr.. O'Neill's Fire Escape Proposal.
There's only one possible objection to
the bill introduced by Assemblyman
O'Neill to regulate the erection of fire
escapes. 1t is that it refers the power
III the long run to the Board of Alder
men.
We have no confidence in this body
rs it is now constituted in this city.
1t seems to be a thoroughly bad,
unscrupulous body. 1t has, so far
as we can see, no regard for
the public welfare. Its whole object
and aim seems to be to license all the
gin mills possible without regard to
the wishes of the residents of the To-
calities where they are TO be situated.
The Board of Aldermen of Newark
appears to be, if possible, worse. 1t
has now for Il month been deadlocked
over "a miserable matter of patronage.
We do not see why the Legislature
should not regulate the matter di-
rectly for Newark and Jersey City as
the New York Legislature did
years ago for New York and
Brooklyn. There is no violation
Of the Home Rule principle
in doing SO, any more than
there is in passing a general
license law. Direct legislation has the
advantage that it is a sure thing. The
delegation of power as this bill pro-
poses leaves it al open question
whether we will have u ire escape

Mir. Harrison's Queer Fix.

AA
The pacific course pursued by the
Chilean government in Withdrawing
the Malta document and Offering to
refer the existing cGSUS 6etR to the
arbitration either of a neutral power
or of the United States Supreme
Court, places President Harrison in a
very awkward position apropos OF
his inflainmatory Message to Con-
gress. f.e
The so-called ultimatum of the
United States Government was tele-
graphed to Mr.. Egan to be presented
to the Chilean administration, under
date of the 21st Thursday. On Satur-
day, the 28d, Mr.. Egan acknowledged
the receipt of the despatch, and said
he would present it to the Chilean
Ministry the next day-presumably
Sunday, the Gath. These dates are
official. They are taken from the
records of the official correspondence.
Now on Monday, the 25th, without
giving the least time for a reply, Mr..
Harrison sends to Congress a Message
i'll which the lingo spirit animates
every word. Before the newspapers
can get the report of the warlike
bugIe blast upon the streets, the pre-
eminently pacific propositions of
Chile are in the hands of u Secre-
tary of State, and the same editions
which print the lingo Message con-
clusively demonstrate its untime-
illness, its injustice, its wholly injur-
ious and mischievous character.
This group of circumstances affords
a sad comment on the manner in
which the negotiation with Chile has
been conducted. 1t has evidently been
the purpose of Mr.. Harrison and his
immediate clique, we will not say to
involve the country in war. but to
create a prospect Of war and a war
spirit, Oh the afflatus of which he
might be waited to a new popularity.
We have repeatedly pointed out the
evidences of a pacific iutent on the
part of Chile. We have shown how
our Government threw obstacles in
the way of a peaceful settlement.
The accuracy Of our view can no
longer be doubted by impartial
spectators of affairs.
Fortunately there is 40 longer any
room for misunderstanding. Chile
has taken up an impregnable position
on the side of peace. Now let us do
our part. Let Mr.. Egan be recalled,
and some person who will not be per-
onal1y offensive to Chile be sent to
look after our affairs instead. We
forfeit no dignity in making the
change. We simply submit to the
laws of diplomatic usage, and show
our desire for a peaceful settlement of
the episode.
We cannot conclude these remarks
without some allusion to the PROPOSE
ton to submit the matter in dispute
to our Supreme Court. This is the
second time a course, similar
in spirit, has been adopted
by a Pc ser in a position of semi-hos-
tility to us. These references of inter-
national disputes to our great
tribunal of justice are the
most impressive tributes that have
EVER been paid by one nation to the
political institutions of another. 1t
must be q source of pride to every
American citizen that the reputation
of this court for wisdom and justice is
thus transcendent even among u
a~dversaries.
