OPEN HANDS LAST MEETING
Held Yesterday at Mrs. Me-
Evans and Officers
/ Elected.

The closing meeting of the Open Hand
Club was held yesterday afternoon at
the residence of Mrs. George McEwan,
of Ogden avenue There was an excel
lent attendance and considerable busi-
ness was transacted, chief Of which was
the election of officers for the ensuing
year. Mrs. c. S. Wright, was elected
president Mrs. Heissenbuttel, vice presi-
dent; Mrs. B. w. Rowe, recording sec
retary; Mrs. E. Van Houten, correspond
ing secretary, and Mrs. Sturdivant,
treasurer.
Plans for next years study were also
discussed, and Mrs. McEwan, Mrs.
Rowe, Mrs Mcneil Mrs. Theodore
Edwards and Mrs. James Loveridge were
placed upon a committee to choose the
subject and arrange a programme.
Miss Ada D. Fuller gave the club
little talk upon the subject Of study out
lining various topics used by the
Women,s Clubs of Jersey City, during
the winter and it is likely the Open Hand
Club will follow out a line Of study on
literary subjects similar to those mem
toned by Miss Fuller.
Another special feature Of the after
noon was the presentation to Mrs.
Theodore Wardeil, the clubs retiring
president, of a. very pretty solid silver
berry SPOON Mrs. Rowe made the pres
entation- speech.
AS so much time had to be devoted to
business. the usual literary papers were
omitted, and following the meeting was
a social during which refreshments were
served, and the ladies' dispersed until
October next.
The object of the Open Hand Club is to
do good in a quiet way. The members
discover some needy person or persons
and then help them. One of its very last
acts Of philanthropy was the donation OF
ten dollars to a most worthy old lady I'M
able to- help herself She had made a
quilt which she was trying to sell. The
Open Hand Club not only bought but re-
turned the quilt, which meant more to
its maker than to the club.
Among those present were:-Mrs. George
McEwan. Mrs Theodore Wardell. Mrs.
e. S.. Wright, Mrs: B. w. Rowe, Mrs. A.
sWiggers, Mrs. T.. Edwards Mrs. j. s.

Fer once, Mr.. Joseph A. Dear was in
the right IN the remarks which he adj
dressed to the Board of Trade, last ever-
ing, upon the subject of the eonsolida-
tion of Hudson county into one munfci-
pality. In pointing out that Jersey City
was In danger Of being everburdened with
the debts of the towns rather than the
towns Of having to bear any part of
Jersey Cffy's liability, he hit the nan on
the head.
Jersey City now has a very moderate
debt IN proportion to her wealth. If the
railway property were brought into our
tar levy, we would have the smallest
relative debt in the State, We are. fur
ther in the fortunate position of having
almost every appurteuance of great
city already provided. We have a large
City Hail. we practically have a Library
Building. We are on the point of secur-
ing High School. We have good set
of schools, engine houses and police sta
sources in the near future will be limited
to additional facilities proportionate to
the city's growth. Money will not have
to be spent on the neglect of the past,
in order to bring the city up to date.
In this respect for example, we are far
ahead OF Newark, which has an old rat
tletrap city Hail, an opera bouffe Police
Headquarters and a Court House which
would disgrace q back woods county IN
Southern State.
The various towns of Hudson boken
perhaps excepted-are all heavily in debt,
and they hare nothing to show for their
money. Their town halls are generally
mere rattletraps, utterly useless for serf-
Gus public business. Their police sta
tions are poor and decrepit Their fire
systems are hardly = degree better than
none. Ths hrst duty Of the new munici-

The officers of, the Battalion of the
Fast, Naval Reserve, are making hard
fight TO preserve intact their organization
The, Governors Commission to reorganize
the National Guard, it will be remem-
bered, recommended the wiping out of one
of the divisions of the Battalion by
amalsamating it with the other two

the East is organized on the plan OF

as it is called, impairs the usefulness OF
f1,e BattaIiou inst as if the committee had
proposed the amalgamation of troop OF
cavalry with two batteries of artillery
and still expected each to perform the
duties of its respective arm of the service.
1t is generally conceded that the Conn
mission did not know what it was doing
when it recommended this change. No
one questions the military ability and
knowledge of the three distinguished
soldiers who composed the Commission,
meudatfon for the military branch of the
National Guard are founded on good and
sufficient reasons Neither does any one
question the fact that these three eminent
Generals know nothing Of the technical.
working of war vessel and that they
had no knowledge of the formation Of
ships company. Nevertheless they die
tated such a formation and undertook
the task of deciding what was necessary
and what was not necessary to equip
and man a. modern naval vessel. This,
too, was done without consulting with OF
listening to any officer connected with
the Reserve.
The Governor has recognized this latter
error and has sought to remedy it. He
has promised the officers of the Battalion

commissioners should not be carried out.
The naval men have prepared a statement
setting forth the reasons why the BAIT
fal5on should be aflowed 70 retain its pres
ent formation, which was published in
s'The Jersey City News last evening. It
Is difficult matter in the light of that
statement, to see any good reason why
the Battadon's present formation should
be disturbed.
The three illustrious Generals, in their
report, give no reason for the change, nor
as far as we can learn has any one of
fhem assigned any. In fact there is no
good reason for It., while on the other
hand the services which the Battalion
rendered during the war and the high
encomiums which the men received both
from the Government at Washington and
the officers of the regular navy, under
whom they served, entitle them to every
consideration from the State and should
preclude ali attempts to impair their USE
