JACKSON AVENUE TROLLEY.
Traction Company Will Go nsider the
subject This Week.

The proposed Jackson avenue trolley
project will probably pc considered py
the Traction Company this week. There
will be an election of the Executive Board
this afternoon and the matter will in all
probabilities be the best subject that will
be discussed when the Board holds its
next meeting, which will be about next
Wednesday. This much was promised to
the committee which was appointed by
the Greenville property owners, and
which waited on Manager David Young
last week. It was the object Of some Of
the property owners to have the trolley
company pay for all the improvements on
the new street after it was opened, as
the Traction Company could do the work
so much cheaper and very much sooner
thar if the city handled it.
This plan was unsatisfactory to the
other property owners VINO were not on
the line of the new thorougnfare. for
they said that those living on the line of
the new thoroughfare would escape as
sesSmentS If this plan was carried out.
The majority of the property owners are
in favor of having the Traction Company
proposed t~horoughfare, Il have the city
make the improvements aftefWards. The
Assessment Commissioners recently on
property to be cut through. fixed the
property owners after having been paid
for their property will be assessed for the
benefits received. This important inn
provement which will greatly benefit the
residents of the West Side. will not cost
the city one cent except for the improy-
ing of the street after 1t has been cut
through, and even then the property own
ers will bear the brunt of the expense IN
that property owners within about 200
feet of the proposed Jackson avenue
trolley will be assessed. The majority
are very much in favor Of the straight
line. The Traction Company will notify
the Greenville committee when anything
definite is decided upon.

Event In June.

81 -
Especial to ssThe Jersey City News."1
TRENTON, March Is, 1S9S-The County
Board of the Ancient Order of Hibernians
held an important meeting at st. Mary's
Hall last evening, at which a committee
was appointed TO begin preparations for
the big national convention OF the order
10 be held here in June e This COM
mittee consists Of William M. Jameson,
Michael Hurley, Thomas Burns, John
Clancy, James Clinton. James Cantwell
and Michael Collins. and will act with the
State officers of the order.
From time to time additional members
of the committee will be selected, but the
gentlemen named yesterday will start the
liminary work. 1t is expected that Mayor
Sfckei will appoint a citizens committee
to meet with the general committee from
the order.
The convention of Hibernians will no
doubt prove one of the biggest events in
the history of Trenton. and will bring
thousands of dollars into the city. There
will be over one thousand delegates, and
with them viii of course come thousands
of others. The convention will be on for
a full week, and some OF the most promi,
nent Irishmen in the United States will
The convention will be the first one held
under the agreement of consolidation be-
tween the A. O. II. and the Board OF
Erin, and it was mainly through the In
fuence of Rt. Rev. Bishop McFaul that
Trenton was selected as the seat of the
convention. AT the convention a new
constitution will be adopted by the anal
gamated order and other matters will be
Considered that will be of great import
ance to the sons of Erie all over the
world.
On one day which. the convention is in
session there will be a parade. 1t is, ex-
pected that the citizens will greatly en-
courage the coming event as 1t will be
the biggest demonstration ever known
here. Within a radius of one hundred
miles of Trenton there are about 10000
member of the order, and between 10000
and 5000 of the number will be in the
parade. Especially in Philadelphia the
order is very strong, and from that city
large crowds will no doubt come.

AMusEMENTS.
OF Music.

In eAn Irish Gentleman Andrew Mack,
.'the singing comedian" Is said to have
the best and most entertaining character
which has fallen to the lot OF al Irish
comedian in a long time. The play. which
was specially written for him by Ramsay
Morris, is said to tell a Fascinating love
story with simplicity, directness and re
markable dramatic power, and TO pic
ture. in a number of strikinSly effective
scenes, the devotion and loyalty of a
young girl to a lover who has been prac-
tically proven both a forgsr and a thief.
and who finds nc way TO clear himself
until ten minutes before the curtain falls
on the last act. The star, part, that OF a
young college man, of a happy-go-lucky,
reckless disposition, is described as one
into which Mr.. Mack fits perfectly. 1t is
by turns humorous. witty, tender, pathetic
and stirringly powerful. and it gives the
comedian plenty of opportunities to prove
that aside from being vastly entertaining
in a comedy way. he can DE thrillingly eff
fectire in dramatic episodes of force and
intensity. 1t is safe to predict that An
Irish Gentleman, will provide an evening
of rare pleasure.

THE MISSION At ST. JOHNS.

The women's mission which has been
going on for the past week at ST. Johns
r. G. Church ended in a magnificent DEM
onstration yesterday afternoon. Long be-
fore the time appointed the people began
to flock into the church. and by three
O'Clock there was not a vacant seat. Fa-
Their De Largy preached the closing SER
mon and before he had Finished there were
sobs heard all over the church and hand
kerchiefs were in active use. Tear-stained
faces were everywhere to be seen, which
soon changd to joy as the eloquent mis-
sionary s~olenlnly CAV his blessing and the
blessing of the Holy Father, for the con-
ferring of which the missionaries have a
special privilege. During this ceremony
the scene was most impressive. The en-
tire church was lighted up and the Shrine
of the Blessed Virgin was one mass Of
flowers, interspersed with wax candles.
In the evening the men gathered in
such numbers that by eight O'clock there
was not room to be found anywhere in
the church. The missionaries declared
that they were astonished and expressed
the hope that the good work would con-
tinue during the week. The services dur
ing the week will be at five and eight
O'Clock in the morning and half-past
seven in the evening.

NV Jersey. Reserves E1onorcd.


The Navy Department at Washington
has administered a singing rebuke 70
those narrow-minded, -parsimonious indi-
yiduals in this State who have been con-
t,uualiv carping over the appropriation for
the Naval Reserve and asking OF what
use the organization was anyhow. Inc
Department has answered the latter ques-
ton by making its first call for men to
perform important duty upon the Bat
talon of the East, which is composed OF
Young men from Jersey City, Newark and
Hoboken. This body of New Jerseys
sailormen has been selected to take the
old monitor Montauk from the League
Island Navy Yard, at Philadelphia to
Portland, Me. for the defence Of that
harbor.
TIL fact hat the Government has
picked out of all the Naval Reserves be-
tween Maine and New York this body Of
Jerseymen to work one of its warships a
distance of almost five hundred miles
along a dangerous coast ainpiy lessihes
to the worth and efficiency of the States
naval forces. This is highly creditapie
alike TO the State and the young men
who make up the Reserve.
The more credit is due to those young
men when one takes into consideration
the way in which they have steadfastly
worked on in spite of obstacles and oppo-
sition from those who should have been
the first to encourage and help them. Ev-
cry year since they have been organized
they have been obliged to go to Trenton
and fight for very existence against the
jealousy of rivals and the antagonism OF
a narrow craftsmanship. But in spite OF
all these efforts to dishearten them and
force them to disband they have manfuily
gone on steadily improving until they
have reached a state of efficiency which
has caused the general Government to
feel that they can be relied upon for
work which is generally entrusted ia reg
ulars.

thropic Committee contemplates giving an
entertainment of socne kind and II was
suggested that the committee combine
with the Lenten Circle, but as the com
