1.-THE Parlor Match is doing an immense
business at tine Academy of Music. Walter
Sanford's greatest and most elaborate scenic
production, 1.-THE struggle of Life" will be
the attraction at this house next week. This
is probably Mr.. Sanford's heaviest melo-
dramatic spectacle, as it is said to be equipped
with the finest and greatest quantity of
scenery of any play ever carried on the road.
The drama deals with New York life, and
many of the well known points and build
ings in the city are reproduced in the scenery.
The story of the play is interesting. many of
the scenes intensely damatic, and altogether
it is a production that appeals to the popular
taste.
Every lady attending the Saturday
matinee at the Opera House this week will
be presented with a box of candy, compli-
ments of the sWicklow Postmanr and the
manager of the Opera House. On Friday

Max in Cold Water.

The members of the Board of Trade
of this city do not just know whethe r
to laugh at Max Salinger's plunge
into deep water yesterday, or to be
enraged at it. Max took the Boards
State Water Commission bill and
without invitation or authority in
troduced it in the Assembly, calmly
appropriating to himself whatever
glory or advantage there is in the
proceeding.
This would only make the Board
members laugh if they did not think
they saw the fine italian hand of Dir.
Garry Hobart in the move. Mr..
Salinger's alliance with Hobart is
inferred from his retirement from
the Speakership fight, thus giving the
chair to Hobart's man, Holt. The
introduction of the bill at this time
secures it's reference to whatever com
mittee suits Mr.. Salinger and infer
precedent is afforded for the reference
of all future bills to the same co M
mittee, where they will be duly
smothered, unless they altogether suit
the would-be contractors for a Jersey
City supply.
But Max had better be careful how
he dabbles in water, this session.
There is more earnest public feeling
about it than he probably appreci-
ates, and, if he steers an unpopular
course not all the shouting and
whooping about his record and his
conscience and the dear people will
save him from being politically
drowned.
We are all watching you, Max,

HIGH SCHOOL CADET CORPS.

The desire of the majority of the members
of the High School Cadet Corps to be affli-
ated with the Fourth Regiment will I'M
doubtedly be granted. Colonel Abernethy
has assured the members that he will do all
he can for them. Captain Peter H. James
of the cadets says the contemplated move IS
one which should receive the support of all
the cadets, for it is to their advantage. At
present the corps is in a somewhat democrat
lied condition. There is no place for the
boys to drill in, and the result is a poor at
tendance of memher

The Morris and Essex Division Orr
ganized at Montclair.
The Morris and Essex Baptist Association
of New Jersey was organized Tuesday after
noon in the First Baptist Church of Mont
clair. Eighteen of the twenty-one churches
which had signified their intention to separ-
ate from the North New Jersey Baptist
Association were represented by thirty-iye
delegates. Rev. Charles Cook of Bloomfield
read the report of the committee of three,
appointed at the East Orange Conference IN
October, 1893, in which the reasons for the
proposed separation were set forth. They
related in brief, to the large membership OF
the North New Jersey Baptist Association,
which comprises sixty-three churches, and
the trouble which arises from that fact.
After reading the report and recommen-
dations of the committee, Mr.. Cook called
for nominations for temporary Moderator
and Secretary and the Rev. |. B. NJ. Thomp-
son and William A. May were elected to
these offices, respectively. A formal resolu-
ton of withdrawal from the parent organi-
zation was passed, and this was followed by
the adoption of a resolution of organization.
After arranging the necessary pre1mi-
naries, a permanent organization was effected
by the election of the Rev. j. T. Dickinson
as permanent Moderator of the new assocl-
alton; William A. May, of Montclair, Clerk:
the Rev. DR.. Norman Fox, of Morristown,
Treasurer.
A constitution and set of bylaws was sub
mitted and voted on by sections.
The question of a name for the new asso-
citation caused considerable discuss ion. and,
after repeated balloting, the name, morris
and Essex Baptist Association of New Jer-
sey,' was adopted, The time for the stated
annual meetings was fixed for the first We'd
nesday in June. The election of trustees
was deferred, on account of the absence of a
quorum, and the meeting adjourned, to meet
next Monday at 2 P. NJ, in the East Orange
Baptist Church.
The following pastors were present:-the
Rev. DeWolfe, Superintendent of state mis-
sions; G. E. Horr, of Bayonne, chairman OF
missionary committee: the Rev. 1. M. b.

Sr. JOsEPH,s LYoEUM.

The rooms of st. Joseph's Lyceum looked
dark last night when a JERSEY CITY NEWS
reporter passed them, and as it is something
unusual for no light to be in the place, the
reporter made inquiries, and learned that the
boys were at church, it being Ash Wednes-
day. A pool, billiard and card tournament
is being advocated among the Catholic clubs
of the diocese. The lyceum boys say they
will be represented in them all. Some time
during Easter week they will present the
three-act comedy, "'Our Boys" in Pavonia
Hall, Pavonia avenue, near Baldwin.

lief seekers from publicity if it can
be made consistent with the exc fusion
of cheats-is the first step towards
keeping worthy unfortunates in
class of the self-respecting industrl-
Gus.
A recent writer ON the subject has
clearly and it would seem very justly
reduced the principles on which RELIEF
work should be given out to three:
The work should be ~ useful; ()
hard; and 81 u~nderpaid. The first,
everyone will at once assent to. There
is no worse offence in the code OF
human economy than the waste OF
human energy. The other two pro-
positions may strike a superficial
observer as unjust or even cruel.
They are essential to the welfare OF
the beneficiary and of the community.
Relief work should be made hard
work, as we'll as useful, s 1that the
beneficiary may feel beyond all doubt
in his own soul that he is earning the
money he gets. 1t should be under
paid SO as to discourage people from
seeking it as long as they ear do
without it. Relief work, even though
useful, is obviously not urgent. 1t
should therefore be given out as
sparingly as possible, and those who
receive it should have every stimuli
ant to abandon it the moment the
open labor market affords them an
opening.
We do not know to what extent the
Board of Trade agents will be able to
furnish relief work. Perhaps not tall.
Such work is usually only in the gift
of the State. But, in whatever they
do, they can obey the same principles.
They can, for instance, treat every
sum advanced to persons capable of
earning a living in better times as a
loan. They can make every borrower
sign a note or acknowledgment of the
debt, with a promise to pay as soon
as able. 1t is not that the Board
wants it's money back. 1t is that it
is better for the persons relieved to
pay it back, or at least to nourish the
idea that they intend to do SO. Many
will forget the obligation in better
times. No matter about that. There
will be many others who will elevate
themselves in their own esteem by
h%onorably d~ischarging the debt.
We take the liberty of urging this
idea on DIR. Gordon and the other mem
bers of the committee. 1t has been
tried in Germany and England with
success, and we believe, in this country
too. 1t is in line with the most adj
vanced conception of charitable work,
the theory of which may be summed
up in one sentence: Help people only
to help themselves. At least this can
be said for it, it a do no harm and
may do good.

The Board of Trade has taken up a
good work in contributing to the re-
lief of the prevailing distress, and we
have no doubt its aid will be conser-
yatively extended by the committee
which has been placed in charge OF
the work. The very first step taken
is so judicious as to promise well
for the rest. This is the promise to
respect the confidence of applicants.
The great difficulty in relief work Is
TO avoid inpairing the self-respect

is even harder than to avoid being
imposed on, and until late days, it has
been q of the least regarded factors
in the whole question. Certainly the
