NEW PEOPLES PALACE.
Greenviile Reformed Church
Organizes Its Young
Men.

Al humble OF young men of the Green
Vile Reformed Church, Ocean and Dam
forth avenues, met last evening at the
church for the purpose of organizing a
young mems club. The club was suggest
ed by the pastor, the Rev. Charles e.
Allen, who takes an active interest in
the young people and Is always eager to
assist them in any of their undertakings.
The object of the young men is to or
ganize a permanent club similar 70 the
Young Mems Christian Association Per-
manent quarters will be secured at once.
They will consist of a reading room and
gymnasium. The membership will be I'M
limited. There will be no dues or initial
ton fees. Every one will be allowed the
freedom of the clubhouse, providing he
behaves properly.
The idea is to keep the young men off
the street corners. by providing amuse-
ments which win naturally tend to inn
prove them both morally and physically.
Entertainments and athletic events viii
be held from time to time, by which
means the expenses Of the organization
will be met.
Pastor Allen presided at the initial meet
ing last evening. #. E. Moritz was APP
pointed a committee of one to secure per-
manent quarters for the new organization.
The following committee was appointed
to draw up a constitution and bylaws
F. Stevens. Walter Kelso and Joseph
Parr.
The present MEMBERS are:3oseph
Tankard, Harry Renshaw. Walter Keiso,
f. Moritz, Joseph Parr. R. III. Merriam,
Reginald Fry. George Kaiser, Oliver
vreeland, J. Blair, L. and j.
Atkinson. Officers will be elected at the
meeting to be held next Tuesday evening.
The committees appointed last evening
will render reports.
Pastor Allen will act in IN advisory
capacity and will end all the assistance
possible to effect a permanent organiza-
ton. The club will probably be known as
the Young Mems Club of the Greenville
Reformed Church.
The members are enthusiastic over the
project and they will work energetically
to bring about it's success. 1t is thought
that a number of new members will be
enrolled at the next meeting. All are IN
vited to join and assist the good cause.

"a similar inquiry had been addressed e
the Trenton school ten weeks ago, the
reply would have been that corporal pun
ishment was strictly prohibited-it was
bv rule-and discipline was enforced by
brief periods of confinement in . darkened
room and by curtailment of privileges
This would have been a literally true
statement-quite as true, we are well as
sured. as any Of the thlrty-six Haunted
before our eyes. It is worth remarking
in regard to one of these, one Of the most
utterly utter Of all reform schools, that
of Massachusetts, that the matron, after
all her talk about moral suasion and the
total prohibition of corporal punishmen1s'
makes the remarkable admission that Sc
we're punishment has 70 be inflicted in ex-
IRENE cases. that the school could not be
conducted without it, and that MALE
employees ARE CALLED IN TO AS
SYST IN ADMINISTERING TT. Pity
she does not tell US just what it consists
in.
Whenever a new schoo is started. and
whenever a public upheaval causes a
change of management, honest and
conscientious efforts are usually made to
totally abolish severity and get along with
methods Of moral suasion. These efforts
last for various periods, six months, a
year; but the recurrence of scandals
regarding the same institutions at brief
intervals shows that the mild plan is
never permanently successful. About a
year ago. a New York Sunday paper de-
voted a page to the House of Refuge at
Hudson, New York, extoiling it as an in
stitution run absolutely on lines of moral
suasion. It is true there were three or
four lines towards the end, limiting at the
use of the cold douche, but they were SO
vague and brief as to attract no attention.
Yet just before cur Trenton outbreak, the
New York Comptroller made an expose
showing that corporal punishment was in
use with the utmost frequency in this
institution, and it had been sub
stituted for the douche because the
douche was inexpressfbly cruel and dan
gerous. This expose resulted in an order
for the abolition of all serious punish
ment at H-udson-just such an order as
Governor Voorhees, is urged to favor at
Trenton. The result at Hudson. as the
tell US from day to day, Is a whole
sale condition of mutiny and disorder, in
GLIDING the destruction Of property. dead
Iy assaults on the officers and frequent
of inmates
The recommendations of the Association
to the Governor are a product not of in
.telligence and humanity, but of stupidity
and mushy so~ft-heartedness. They are
calculated to destroy all usefulness in the
if they are regarded in anything
like their literal extent by the trustees.
