LAFAYETTE PARK.
Mayor Hoos Talks the Matter Over
Prospects Improving.

Mr.. Richard Campbell, of Lafayette,
called on Mayor Hoos late yesterday
afternoon and urged him to appeal to the
Finance Commissioners to issue bonds for
the creation of a public park in Lafayette.
The bill under which the Lafayette
people may some day get a public park
was introduced in the Legislature by
Assemblyman Murphy and tafter many
spirited debates was passed. The bill was
not signed until after Governor VOORHEES,
a come to this city and ascertained
whether or not the city was in a position
to warrant the issue of more park bonds
Mayor Hoos favors the creation of
parks and so do the Finance Commission
ers and they will raise money for the pur-
pose when they consider that the city is
in a position to afford 1t. Mayor Hoos
promised Mr.. Campbell that he would
talk the matter over with the Finance
Commissioners at his earliest ppor-
tunity.
The Lafayette people ask for only a
small park. They want the city to secure
the Van Horn property for the purpose.
The proposition will probably be taken
up after election.

BROWNING CLASS.
Saul" and Youth and Art at
Mrs. John A. Walkers, Yesterday.

Saul was continued at the Browning
Glass which met for the second time al
the residence of Mrs. John A. Walker,
No. 26O Montgomery street, yesterday
afternoon, under the leadership of Mrs.
Marion Leland.
Yesterday the class was in much better
trim than the week before, having mao
the chance to at least read the poem over
once or twice before being called upon
to read in public, which fact not only
served the readers with a more thorough
understanding of the poets lines, Dut
gave the ladies a greater amount OF self
confidence. Then, too, the majority OF
the class a read the story as set forth
in the book of Samuel, and were con-
versant with the cause and effect Oh
Saul's melancholy, as well as the sur
rounding scenery.
Another of Brownfng's poems, Youth
and Art was also read, studied and
criticized. The beauty of Browning's
poetry n the thoughts which lie below
the surface of his lines are now begin
ming to dawn upon and be appreciated by
the class with the effect that several OF
the. members who ave never heretofore
cared for Browning are fast being con-
verted to his train of ardent admirers.
After an hours reading and study the
class adjourned to meet again on Monday
next at the same place, When Fra Flppo
Fippi" will be the poem read and dis
cussed.
Among those present were:-Mrs. John
A. Walker, Mrs. E. w. Newbury, Miss
Simpson, Mrs. John Hilton, Mrs; Reid.
Mrs. Carrie Shepard, Mrs. Spencer
Weart, Miss Ada D. Fuller, Miss Hamil-
ton, Mrs. Heating, Mrs. James Erwin and

The estate Gazette expresses surprised
admiration at our remarks regarding
General Sewelrs appointment as Major
General commanding the State National
Guard. Perhaps it's emotions will be FUR
fher stimulated by what we have to say
regarding General Sewells attitude to-
wards the Philippine policy of the Adj
ministration.
We have nothing but the highest praise
to bestow upon the General for his re-
cent speech upon the Imperial Army
bill. 1t was patriotic, it was American,
1t was well informed, it was wise. Oh
course TT News is in favor OF army
reorganization; of course we are in favor
of increasing the force over the prepos-
terously small muster that we had pre-
viously to the Spanish war. We take 1t
General Sewell, also, is in favor OF re-
organization and moderate increase.
But the idea of maintaining a force OF
over 100, 600 men, mainly for the purpose
of keeping foreign colonies in subJectlon'
is repulsiye to every consideration OF
right. to every feeling of loyalty to Amer
lean principle and tradition.
General Seweli announced that he was
never in favor of the acquisition of the
Philippines. He said that he had visited
them and was satisfied from personal OBJ
servations that they and their inhabitants
were not desirable acquisitions to this
country. He declared tina it would take
an army of from 5000 to $1,000 to main
tain our control in the Philippines
We feel proud that a Senator from New
Jersey should have the courage n clear
sight to thus oppose the schemes OF the
leaders of his own party, and speak Tor
the good OF the country and the future
of our Federal institutions, regardless OF
lthe disfavor which such expressions may
bring upon him from an utterly unscrupu-
lous National Administration. We are
quite ready to set p-artisanship aside at
all times and give due honor to whose
ever NAV carr it. I this speech, in the
position which it indicates on the great
est question of the day, we recognize IN
General Sewell a true representative OF
the State of New Jersey-of its cool
thought and its firm, patriotic devotion
to the national system handed down to
US by the Fathers of the Country. The
fact that he was elected as a Republican
hoes not matter in the least, when he is
right. In this matter he is a very good
Democrat indeed.

ton. There was butt little discussion;

that it was best to have a shor cam
paign.

Y. M. c. A. NOTES.
Junior Department Organized
Yesterday--Boys Will
Have Cymnastic
Training.

The Young Mems Christian Association
successfully organized yesterday after
moor a Junior department for boys be-
tween nine and fifteen years of age The
preliminary meeting was highly crafty
ing. Twenty-three boys appeared, the
majority of whom put in their application
for membership. 1t is believed that with
in a very short time at least forty or
fifty boys will be enrolled,
1t is proposed to give the boys syste-
matte instruction In the gymnasium, pro-
vide them with good reading material,
also a room fitted up for games, etc, and
as the season advances to give them
proper outings. All this work will be un-
der the supervision of the skilled en-
ployes of the association.
The privileges of the Y. M. c.. A. will
be given the boys three times a week, be-
tween four and six p. NJ, and probably
from ten to twelve A. NJ. on Saturdays.
The cost has been placed at the low figure
of 50 per year. The Young Mems Chris
tan Association believes that in opening
up a boys department it is supplying a
long felt need in Jersey City. Already let
tiers are being received from the parents
commencing the association for having
started this new department. The next
meeting of the boys will be held on Thurs
day afternoon of this week at four P. M.
General Secretary Browns Bible Glass
will meet this evening as usual in the
association rooms. Much interest is be-
ing manifested in the class and young
men from all parts of The city are be-
coming interested. A very notable in
crease in membership has occurred.
Young men desiring a systematic study
of the Bible could not do better than
enroll themselves in this class.
Arrangements have been completed for
an entertainment to be given in the Y.
M. c. A. rooms on Saturday evening,
March 4. Those holding membership
tickets in he association will be admit
ted on their presentation, and young men
who are not member of the association,
but who desire to become interested, will
be given a ticket or application to the
Secretary.
The programmed will be exceptionally
fine. Several leading artists have kindly
offered their services. The programme
will include instrumental and vocal
music, various characters, recitations,
etc. 1t is believed a very large number
will be present and enjoy this occasion.
The entertainment will be for men only.
