NEWMAN MISSIONS APPEAL
Public Asked to Buy Wood and
Help Keep the Home.

The Newman Industrial Home and Mis-
sion has issued the following appeal to
the public:-
THE Newman Industrial Home and
Mission desires a word with the public.
1t is endeavoring to increase it's business
preparatory to going into new quarters,
where there will be ample room for
largely extended work. This can be done
by the thoughtful and kindly considera-
tion of the people. There is scarcely a
family that does not need kindling wood.
The Newman Mission provides Virginia
pine and Northern New Jersey oak. No
better wood can be had any place. Con-
sidering the work the mission is doing,
it deserves the intelligent support of the
people of Jersey City.
when you buy wood of the mission you
are not giving charity any more than
wnen you buy sugar or coffee from your
grocer. But, of course, the profit accru-
ing will assist a benevolent work 1t is
easily in the power of Jersey City to
make the mission self-supporting. OF the
city's 10000 population there are at least
10000 families all needing kindling wood
If only 5000 of these families were con-
stant patrons of the mission wood yard
it would be sef-supporting. AT many
houses where servants are employed they
thoughtlesely say no to the canvassers,
without reporting the need to the mis-
tress.
s4The mission does not want to beg any
longer than is really necessary, hence the
Board of Directors and Superintendent
Borts appeal to Jersey City families to
work for the point of the missions self
support.
The mission is also in need of all
kinds of apparel that men can wear,
especially shoes. Out Of the $4,000 pairs of
mems shoes, partly worn, surely enough
could be sent in to supply the needs of
the men coming to the mission, some of
whom are nearly barefoot. 1t is only
necessary to call attention to this and the
need will lsbe supplied surely The thought
.ful attention of the public is earnestly
requested in the interest of the Newman
Mission

DOESN'T FAVOR WARD CLUB.
Greenville League Thinks Three Are
Enough G. o. p. Clubs.

The Greenville Republican League Club
held it's regular weekly meeting last night
at the clubhouse on Danforth avenue,
near the Boulevard. A communication
was received from the Seventh Ward Re
publican Association relative to the for
nation of ward club. No official ac-
tion was taken on the communication ex-
cept to elect a man to represent the club
on the committee appointed by the Ward
Association. William A. Charlock was
elected to serve on the committee wEtcn
will meet on January 81 He will report
the result of the conference after which
action will be taken as to whether or not
the League will favor the formation of
such body. 1t is doubtful if it will fav-
or 1t as the ward already has three Re
publican clubs and a great many think
they are too many. The Ward Club
would not do away with the several or
ganizations already in the ward, but would
simply be ar organization with when
every good Republican in the ward would
be supposed tc be connected.
One proposition for membership was re-
ceived from Fred Nichols, whose name
will be acted upon at the next meeting.

LAcKAWAANA EMPLOYEES UNITE.
Form a Sick Benefit Association
Limited to Companv's EMPLOYEES,

With one hundred charter members the
Lackawanna Railroad Employees Relief
Association was organized last night in
the assembly rooms of the R. r. Z. NJ.
G. A., Hoboken. The new association is
composed of Lackawanna Railroad en-
ployes who are not desirous of affiliating
with the Morris and Essex Railroad Bene-
fit Society. The latter society succeeded
the now defunct Morris and Essex en-
ployes Mutual Benefit Society. Most of
the employees who organized last night
We're members of the old society and re-
fused TO join the reorganized one because
of long standing differences with the
officers of the former, the majority of
whom were reelected in the Morris and
Essex Railroad Benefit Society.
The Lackawanna Railroad Employees
Relief Association proposes to limit its
membership to employees of the road. At
the meeting last night an effort was made
to take in former employees, but ma.
jority vote of the members defeated it.
The committee of five appointed to draft
constitution and bylaws submitted the
result of it's work and the document was
discussed in sections and finally adapted.
The constitution provides for the pay.
ment OF a weekly benefit OF IS to sick
members and fixes the dues at fifty cents
monthly. The frequency of subscription
lists was responsible for most of the
trouble in the old organization and to
guard against this in the new association
the organizers thought best to abolish
the payment of death benefits. THhe age
limit for employees desirous of joining the
association is fixed at fifty
Officers were elected as follows.-

short time of existence can show such 3
credltable financial standing.

KILLED BY FALL
Daniel Evans Tumbled
Through the Elevated
Tracks in Hoboken.
WAS RUNNING AFTER A CAR
Conductor Yelled to Him to
Stop, But He Paid No
Attention.

Daniel Evans, thirty-three years old, of
No. 532 Central avenue, was killed early
this morning by falling from the North
Hudson County Railroad elevator near
the Washington street station in Hoboken.
Evans was seen falling by Emil Won
Brock, an employe of the United States
Express Company, who hurried to the
place where he lay. The pavement was
covered with blood and Evans was groan-
ing and making feeble efforts to speak.
Trolley car No. 80 of the Central avenue
line stopped on the structure overhead,
about twelve feet in advance of where
Evans lay. Motorman William Bremen
and Conductor Joseph Berger left the car
and hurrying down the steps assisted Won
saloon. An ambulance that had been
summoned arrived soon, but Evans died
just as he was being carried into St.
Marys Hospital.
Presuming that the conductor and mo-
torman could explain the accident, the
police placed both under arrest. Bergen
said Evans was leaning against post
on the station platform when the car
passed Washington street.
He did not signal us to stop, but when
the car had gone several yards past the
station he jumped on the structure and
ran after u.s.. he said. II rang the bell
to stop the car and shouted to the man
to stop running. He did not heed my
warning and before the car came to a
standstill he tumbled off the structure. I
could hear him strike the pavement be-
low
Motorman Bruner corroborated this ac-
count of the accident. Evans appeared
to be under the influence of drink, he
added
Recorder Stanton paroled both men in
the custody of Adjuster Feeny of the
Railroad Company this morning. There
was nothing to prove that either had
been responsible for Evans's death, he
said, and as no complaint had been made
against them he could not legally hold
them.
Coroner William Parslow has taken
charge Of the body. He will order an
inquest.
Evans was married. He had several
children. He formerly lived in Hoboken,
where he was in politics in the Fourth
ward.

NO COLOR Line.
Members Of the African
Church May Do Fedora
ton Work.
BUT MUST CALL ON THEIR OWN RACE
So the Executive Committee
Decides at It's Meeting
Yesterday.

The Jersey City Council, Federation of
Churches, has decided to take the coll
ored brethren into the fold. The Rev. r.
H. Motley of the Salem Baptist Church
(colored) on Union street, at recent ses-
sion of the Council, called the attention
of Chairman Herr to the fact that no
provision had been made for the colored
people. He was told that the Council
had considered the question and had come
to the conclusion that the colored folk
must be excluded The only reason given
was that white families would object to
colored women visiting them to secure the
necessary statistics. Mr.. Motley said that
the action of the Council was inconsist-
ent and he criticized the members in thus
barring the colored Christians from the
work.
A meeting of the Executive Committee
was held yesterday afternoon in the First
Presbyterian Church on Emory street
DR.. Herr presided The main topic of
discussion was the colored church people
Several members said that the Council
had been rather severely criticized for
excluding the colored people, and perhaps
unjustly. The Council was willing to do
all in its power to assist these members,
but in giving its first decision it had
done what was to be considered fair
thing.
A vote was taken on a motion to in
clude the colored people in the several
districts outlined and was carried unani-
mously. There are certain restrictions,
however, for the colored families of the
Federation will only be visited by menu
bers of the colored churches The var
ious church workers while canvassing
their districts, will take note of the col
ored families and will turn such infor-
nation over to the pastors of the colcred
churches.
The National Federation of Churches
is to meet in Philadelphia next month and
the local Federation selected these dele
gates to go:-The Rev. Z. L. Stoddard,
Ph.D., the Rev. John l.. Scudder, Mr.. ".
H; Beach and Deacon Thomas Miller.
Several matters pertaining to the can
vassing were discussed. The real work
will begin next month. Every one of the
thirty churches will have its delegates go
over the districts allotted to them. The
complete statistics win be collected, it is
hoped, by March /. The question of hir-
ing several clerks to compile the figures
was also talked over. Lots of good hard
work is anticipated in handling the re-
turns All of the literature has been dis
tributed and each pastor is ready for
active work.
