CLUB GOSSIP.
Union League Club.

The Committee on ADJUSTMENTS is preparing a
.sStag'' which is expected to surpass anything
OF the sort ever given by the Union League
Club. Invitations will be extended to all other
clubs in the city.
Since Reuben Simpson was elected ne has been
the hero worshipped 1t the Union League. When
ever Mr.. Simpson enters the building he is given
q perfect ovation. His popularity at the club
mas always been great: but it is doubly SO now
Emil DATE says il Is q shame that he and
others cannot go to the Union League Club and
play a game of cards without the fact being
published in THE JERSEY Cry NEWS; Mr.. Datz
evidently does not realize the TACT that a news
paper gives all the news.
Federal Club.
Several new members were added to the list
at the last meeting of the Federal Club.
The annual election of officers will, take place
next June and there is considerable activity
among the Members concerning this matter
already. It has been practically decided that
President Kline will not be given q second term.
Too many members have failed to admire his
administration and but very few have been
heard to say that they have been pleased with
it. 1t is believed that a change OF officers aud
committees will prove beneficial to the Club.
E. w. Wooley is the member most talked of for
There is a faint rumor that when the weather
becomes settled the gate at the Federal Club
grounds entrance will be repaired and the fence
painted. This is but a runor, IN fact, only the
shadow of a rumor.
The Jersey City Athletic Club.
The members who favor the establishment of
q cafe at the Jersey City Athletic Clubhouse are
preparing to make an aggressive fght for the
Improvement, and at the next meeting it is
said they will make an attempt to repeal the
present charter and adopt a new one. The
trustees will, in the meantime, communicate
with each individual member and thus ascertain.
Just how many members do want the cafe. II
these are In the majority they will recommend
that it be made a feature Of the club. The tenn

The scheme of electing a Board OF Governors
is being revived. The officers are becoming
discouraged because of the poor attendance aG
meetings. and they would like to see governors
elected who would take interest and transact
whatever business may come up before the
| Club. The average attendance at the meetings
is but ten per cent of the membership.
..The members should give US better support"
said one of the officers to a reporter of The
! JERSEY Cry NEWS. Meetings are held but
once a month and the officers would like to see
| at least eighty per cent of the members present,
so that we can have suggestions that will help
us. Too little interest is shown.
