MUSICAL MATTERS.

sits a very pretty quarrel as Sir Luclus
| O'Trigger would say, this alteration be-
! tween two factions in the Schubert Club.
Since the exclusive announcement in these
! columns of the discussions in the club, and
| the necessity of some plan of organization,
followed by the result Of Mondays meeting,
| it can easily be seen that the action of the in
~corporators has been justified by the subse-
| quent action of the directors to the scheme.
When Mr.. Charles Forster on Monday
evening announced that IN incorporation
had been effected, q majority in the meet
ing, which, by the way, did not include all
the active members, opposed, saying that
there was no need for such a plan. There
| was unity in the club and harmony pdTtout.
Consequently they secuted the incorpor-
ators' plan and appointed a to do
what. Incorpor attic. Under the guidance
| of LAWYER George c.. Tennant the commit
| tee drafted a notice, which has been posted
up in a public place. 1t reads
$40 WHOM IT MAY CONCERN.-Take nopice
| that at a meeting of the Schubert Glee Gu
| of Jersey City, to be held at the club rooms
on Monday, June IL. 1894, at eight T. M, the
following resolution will be offered for
adoption
Resolved, That this club make and file
with the clerk of the county Of Hudson,
State of New Jersey, a certificate in writing
to be signed by the officers of the club for
| the purpose of Incorporating the club under
and by virtue Of an act of the Legislature of
the State of New Jersey, entitled IAN act to
| incorporate societies and clubs for social, IN
tellectnal and recreation purposes
s.This resolution will be presented at that
4 meeting and q warm discussion will ensue.
| So much for that part of the matter. The
\ incoTporators, on the other hand, are quietly
| going ahead completing the arrangements
required by law and will nave everything
ready for the utilization of members In a few
| days.
They nave not resorted to any mud sling
ing aud it is just to their opponents to say
| that they, Messrs. Foster, Morse, Adams,
Wiltshire Kennedy and Cameron, do not
| credit them with the sentiments appearing
in a local paper which pretends to give news
guardlY articles in the easily-procured
Columns of that sheet simply prove
that the hairbrained chatterer who
wrote them neither understands the
| situation nor comprehends the issue.
| The babbiings of this idiot would be amusing
/ were il not that they compromise gentlemen
on the opposite side to the incorporators
who are above such petty conduct. Messrs.
Tennant, Smith, Woltemeyer, Collins, and,
in fact. the most ardent opposers to the in
corporation. as affected, never during the
meeting of Monday uttered one word Of a
| personal nature, although they attacked the
scheme in a spirited manner.
This admirable conduct throughout the
affair will be closely initiated by Messrs.
Forster and Company.
