The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1899-10-02

The citizens Of New Jersey have every
reason to be proud Of the showing wnicn
their state made in the Dewey ceiepra-
tion In both the naval and land par
ndes she occupied a prominent position
ana received much commentator for the
nxeellent manner In which she was repre-
scented. In the naval demonstration OF
Friday, the flag of the State occupied a
conspicuous place and was enthusiasticai-
" saluted by all the craft which passed
BY. The nag few from the old rwarsnip
Portsmouth, which was manned by the
Battalion OF the East Of the Naval Re-
serves.
Although the Unborn Jealousy Of New
york toward anything from New Jersey
prevented the daily newspapers OF that
city from giving his State any p%articu-
lar credit, it was recognized by the people
that the New Jersey contingent was one
If the best in the land parade of Satur-
nav. No organization in the entire line,
s,nless perhaps it was the West Point
nadets. marched better han the First and
Fourth Regiments. while the Essex troop
sat their horses and executed the vari-
nus difficult manoeuvres ike veterans
The gun detachment made a magnificent
appearance. A storm of applause all
along the line greeted the Naval Reserves
svben they appeared. With very few ex-
reptions, everyone in both battalions was
q veteran Of the Spanish war and proudly
wore, for the first time, the medal which
the state presented to her worthy sons.
This excellent appearance is all the more
remarkable when the recent attempt to
harass and demoralize the military and
naval forces of the State is taken into
consideration. The ill-advised endeavor to
impair the usefulness Of the Naval Re-
serve by the so-called plan of r~eorganiza-
ton was enough to discourage any body
Of men. But the reserves accepted the
situations like the good sailors they are
and brought about the best order they
could out of the chaos into which the
were thrown by ignorance and jealousy.
How well they succeeded was shown in
the fine appearance which h made on
Saturday.
There was n Disappointing feature of
the affair, however, which excited consid-
cradle unfavorable comment among Jer-
seymen. They had hoped to see their
Governor ride by at the head of his troops
on horseback, as did Governor Roosevelt
OF New York and Governor Stone of Penn
sylvania, and not in a carriage like the
necrepit veterans of a generation ago.

preached a short sermon on the exploits
and character of Admiral Dewey. He be-
gan by describing this great naval hero

him by giving voice to an opinion. Dewey.

the praise now being bestowed upon this
illustrious sailor was indeed well merited
and that the people could not give him too

UNHAPPY MARRIAGES.

The Rev. John L. Scudder last night
delivered in the First Congregational
Church the second of his series on Mar

Marriages" He said:-
statistics show that men and women
are born in about equal numbers. ano
hence nature teaches that marriage IS the
proper goal for every human being. Poly
gamy and ~polyandry are monstrosities
and indicate moral disease. All mar
riages would be happy If all people were
good, but as there are ali KINDS OF men
and women in the world, it behooves eacn
one, who desires matrimonial bliss, 10 DC
deliberate in the choice of a lffe partner
and know thoroughly the person 70 DC
wed. AS many foolish things are done IN
the name of love and many young people
are impulsive and thoughtless, they need

lessness. A happy marriage Is heaven on
earth. but a mismated couple nnd purga-
tory his side the grave.

of young people to mistake a temporary
irfatuation for true love and to marry
unwisely. ascertaining the mistake when
