GOO COOS HAVE TOO MUCH ROOM.
They Arrange fer smaller and eosIer
Quarters.

Good Government Association, No. /.
held a meeting last night, but no official
action was taken on any particular sub
ject. as it was thought that matters of
local interest wtuld pail before the great
national struggle which is at present oc-
cupying the minds of the people. After
election the association will start in in
earnest.
The association decided that the room
at Arcanum Hall. which they now used,
was too large for the Executive Com
mittee meetings. and the gentlemen of the
association were asked to look for some
smaller place. Several offers of offices
were made. but some were down town,
some in G~reenyille, while the association
seems loath to leave Bergen. Finally
Mr.. W. H. Laney offered his office, on
Monticello avenue, as a meeting place,
and the association accepted it, giving
Mr.. Laney a vote of thanks.
Mr.. Myron Furst spoke of the difference
in width between the north and south
sidewalks of Lafayette street. That on
the north side. he said, was considerably
wider than that on the south. He a
spoken about the matter to Commission
err Kaiser, who investigated and found
that Mr.. Furst was right, but neverthe-
less nothing had been done, and now
that the street was a~sphalted, nothing
could be done.
The association adjourned to meet Oc-

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVoR WORK.


Ftans for n Coming Season.
The quarterly meeting of the Executive
Committee Of the Hudson County Chris
tian Endeavor Society was held last night
in the Waverly Congregational Church,
on Booraem venue, Jersey City Heights.
There were twenty-nine societies repre-
sented. In the absence of President Will
lam T. Hunter, Vice President Robert
Alberts presided.
The meeting was of short duration, as
there was very little business on hand.
and no lengthy discussions were had. An
amendment to the bylaws. changing the
Union monthly meetings to every three
months. making them quarterly instead
of monthly, was lost by an almost unani-
nous vote.
Mr.. H. F.. Bush was appointed Chair
man of the Lookout Committee and Mr..
Charles A. Delere Chairman of the Extern
sion Committee.
It was decided to hold the December
rally on December 3, in the Second Pres
byterian Church, on Third street. The
rest of the evening was taken up inrsing-
ing and discussing the work the various
societies ave been doing.
Previous to the meeting refreshments
We're served by the ladies Of the Wav-
erly Society.
