EBLIGIODS ACTIVITY. Bishop VVigger Was in Town All Last Week. TWO CONVENTIONS THIS WEEK. Episcopalian Archdeacons Will Meet at St. Matthew’s and Methodists at Trinity. Last week was a busy and impor tant one in the Catholic churches of this city, for it was the week of the visi tation of the Bishop. This means a great deal, as the event occurs but once in three years. Every parish in the diocese is visited by the Bishop and all the busi ness matters of the parish are carefully investigated. The records and financial reports arc gone over and examined, the confessionals are inspected to see that they are in proper condition, and, in fact, tho whole parish turned topsy turvy. This is done three times in ten years and during the tenth year the Bishop makes a trip to Rome to report there the result of these investigations. Bishop Wigger was in the city all the week and he visited ail the churches here during that time. TWO CONFIRMATIONS. At St. Mary’s and St. Peter’s he cele brated confirmation aud the classes at both churches were very large. The con firmation at St. Peter’s was celebrated on Thursday morning at seven o’clock, aud the first communion was administered by Bishop Wigger to the candidates at the same time. The Bishop preached in the church on Wednesday night. At St. Mary’s confirmation was at eight o’clock Weduesclay morning, aud 500 children and 100 adults received their first com munion aud were confirmed by Bishop Wigger. High muss was celebrated also and the sermon was by the Bishop. The Jersey City Methodist District Con vention will be held on May 12 and 13. On the night of May 12 there will be a mass lneeliug in Trinity M. E. Church, aud the speakers will be the Rev. Mr. Payne, the Rev. Mr. Peck and the Rev. Mr. Chadwick, aud their subjects will be benevolence. On Muy 13 the convention will be held in St. Paul’s M. E. Church, and a routine programme will be dis cussed by members of the conveutiou. This will close the convention, but on that night a mass meeting under the auspicies of the Methodist Alliance will be held iu Hedding Church. Dr. Menden hall, of tlie Methodist Review, and one of the Methodist bishops will make ad dresses. The convention and the pro gramme provided by the Alliance will be exeeedly interesting, aud it is expected that a large audience will attend. AKCUDEACONS TO CONVENE. Another interesting convention, the Archdeaconry of the Episcopal Church, will meet iu St. Matthew’s Church ou May 5. A business meeting will be held at three o’clock aud about twenty five Episcopalian clergymen from Jersey City aud. Hobokeu will be present. This will be presided over by Archdeacon Janvey and various speakers will address the au dience. Dr. Osborne and Dr. Lins will be among the speakers. These two import ant conventions will keep tho clergymen pretty busy and will about finish the church business of this year. By the time they are over the next thing to be considered will be the summer prepara tions and the union services. THE ANCHOR LEAGUE. The Rev. D. Hallerou yesterday com pleted organizing a league to be known as the Anchor League of St. Paul’s M. E. Church. He has designed it for boys and girls between the ages of nine aud four teen and the league will be conducted on nonsectariau principles. The object is foi religious instruction, which Mr. Hal lerou will endeavor to present to the chil dren iu a pleasant and attractive manner. All children will be admitted whether Methodist or not, and it is intended to meet the expenses with the proceeds of concerts. It is to be hoped that the Rev. Mr. Hallerou will meet with success, for the Protestant churches do not provide half well enough for the religious train ing of children. THE WEST SIDE METHODIST CHURCH. About thirty-five members of the West Side Methodist Church met Wednesday evening for the purpose of studying the Sunday School lesson for Sunday. A proposition to have the school participate in tho Muy walk was voted down, and tho committee was thanked for inviting the school to join in the walk. The pas tor, the Rev. Mr. Atkiusou, then gave a brief sketch of the circumstances under which the church was organized in 1870. He said that about twenty years ago the Sunday School was commenced at tho home of a lady residing on Culver ave nue. Mr. William H. Beach was the first superintendent, aud has occupied the office to the present day. The first scholars were Mrs. William H. Beach, Miss Elora Beach, now Mrs. F. A. Swiu arton, and Mr. G. Vreelaud. The school became successful aud the members re solved to organize a church. At tlie following session of the Newark conference the presiding elder called for a volunteer to go to West Bergen and assist in building up the new church. Tlie Rev. Mr. Simpson responded and in a short time after his entrance upon the work the erection of the church was be gun. The congregation was unable to raise sufficient funds to complete the structure and the upper story was left unfinished until about three years ago. Taeu uuder the pastorate of the Rev. Mr. Weston tho edifice was completed, a pipe organ put in aud the church made one of the handsomest in that section of the city. _ CHDRCH MOTES. General News from all the Churches.

Tifree Are Now Contemplated, But All May Yet Unite in a Parade. Preliminary preparations for the fitting celebration of I.abor Day in Hudson county are already going forward. Judging from the action taken at the outset it loots as If the various orgaulza tions will not act so harmoniously this year as they did last. The Building Trades’ Council has ap pointed a committee to secure a suitable park for a picnic. It is proposed to have a parade of the building trades and unions of other trades, which aro in sympathy, will be invited to participate. A short match through the principal streets of Jersey City is contemplated, as it Is believed that the long walk over the dnsty roads last year wouid deter many from fading into liue on Labor’s holiday this year. It is pretty safe to say that there will be a celebration by another contingent of labor’s forces on the first Monday in Sep tember. For the past three years the Jer sey Association has held a picuic on that date and the success attained is sufficient to warrant the belief that the association will hold another festival on Labor Day this year. That is not all. The German trades unious are getting ready for a proper recognition of the holiday, and have al ready,it is rumored, negotiated for a park for a picuic. In talking about the matteralabor man who loves unity remarked,:—“What a splendid spectacle these three divisions of labor would present if they couU be brought together in one monster parade! I tell you, it would be a revelation to those ou the outside of labor organizations. But there is lots of time before Septenmer aud who knows but what something in this direction won’t bo attempted.’’ After tho Mooting:. At the reception which Mayor Cleveland gave to Mr. Powderly and brother Knights after the meeting on Thursday evening, a choice collation was served. The only drawback to some of the guests was the "softness” of the drinkables, but then It was thought that His Honor arranged it thus out of respect to Mr. Powderly’a stern temperance habits. A curious brother, however, ventured to en quire:— “May I ask if you are a Prohibitionist' Mr. Cleveland?” “Oh, no,” replied the Mayor, “but I never have liquor in the house.” In accepting a glass of lemonade Mr. Powderly observed:—"When I have fin ished a public speech I find that a drink of cold water restores my throat wonder fully.” A good deal of comment has been caused by the appearance of James E. Quinn ou the platform at tho Powderly gathering. It is said that the magnificent audience present tempted him to ask for the privilege of making a speech. But “Jim” has a “job” and that makes all tlio difference now iu Jersey as well as New York. Borne to His Best. This afternoon, at two o’clock, a faith ful worker of Typographical Union No. 94 will be borne to bis last resting place. D. S. Jemison-Ball was only twenty-eight years old when he passed away on Friday morning, but bis comrades say that biB active life aud the ravages "of disease made him look older. This young printer was born in the South aud was intensely Southern in his convictions. It was a characteristic of hint to be in dead earnest. He was an active member of the Concord Labor Cinb of New York when it was flourishing about four years ago and was so well thought of that he was elected a delegate to D. A. 65 from that organization. The deceased orinter was quiet aud unostentatious In his denliugs with his fellows and in his domestic life bore himself as a good hus band and father and a sober aud in dustrious citizen. Members of No. 94 will attend his funeral today. Labor Notes. General Secretary P. C. McGuire, of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners, reports that eight hours has been conceded in upwards of seventy cities. A performance will be given for the benefit of the Building Trades’ Journal at the Windsor Theatre, New York, ou May 35. Walking Delegate Alfred Ashley, of the Amalgamated Society of Carpenters and Joiners,expects that only 300 men will have to resort to striking in New York tomorrow iu order to secure eight hours. Twenty-seven of the principal employing carpenters have already declared them selves ready to cencede the demands of the men. The United Brotherhood and Amalgamated CarDenters are now strengthened by the entire comiug over to their side of the United Order, an or ganization of the trade which the bosses were looking to use against the short time movers. But the ancient grndge which the United Order has against the Brotherhood is dropped for the notice, as members of the former organization would scorn the idea of being used as “bats” or "scabs” to defeat the purposes of their brethren of the rival organiza tion. This afternoon the housesmiths will meet in Webster Hall, New York, to de cide whether they will strike agaiust certain propositions of their employers. Besides 3,000 housesmiths other trades in which irou work is used will be drawn into the conflict. General Master Work mau Powderly is expected to be present at tiie meeting, which, it is understood, will he confined to the trade affected. A muss meeting of puiuters is culled for ten o’clock this morning at Zibetti’s Hall. Central avenue aud Bleeckrr street, Jersey City. Iu this neighborhood another promising branch of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters aud Joiners has been started. There are a number Germans in the new union. John F, Kelly, the walking delegate of Carpenters’ Union 482, ib doing excellent work. Union IIUl Framers’ Union complains that there are “scab” framers in Meier lierk’s Union Brewery in Guttenberg. Central Trades' Assembly meets on Thursday night. liLLCTKiC TKACTION. [t Is Considered More Economical Thau Horses. The operation of street railways by elec tricity, although even now completely iemonstrated to be more economical than by either horses or cables, Is yet too recent to afford the more reliable figures which san only be attained after extended use; but from an investigation recently made an a number ot roads by O. T. Crosby, some very interesting data are developed. The results of Mr. Crosby’s investigation show that the average cost of motive power for the roads in Washington, Rich mond, Cleveland ami Scranton, was ubont 5,09 cents per car mile, and the relations of the various items whfch go to make up this total cost are very interesting. Thus.lt is shown that the interest on the invest ment constitutes about oue-fourth or one-fifth ot the whole; that is to say, about one cent per car mile; coal, as u rule, about twelve per cent.; attendance, about forty per rent.; and the machinery and line, without interest, the remaining twenty per cent. But with nil these manifest advantages of the electric rail way, the best proof of its superiority is to be found in the experience of those who are using it; and if the unsolicited praise from that quarter is to be relied upon, then certainly the electric railway is an unqualified success. At the eighth annual meeting of the Americ:tp Street Railway Association, held last .September at Minneapelis, the committee which had beep appointed for the purpose of investigating and report ing upon electric railways, submitted a report which should finally set at rest the doubts of those who still believe the elec tric railway to be in the experimental stage. This committee reported in fact that, ‘'if it is desired to make a change from horse power, electricity will fill the bill to perfection, no matter how long or short the road, or how many passengers are carried. In the investigation of the subject the most satisfactory results nave been shown; it not only increases the traffic over the road, but reduces expense and actually enables us to operate a line which heretofore entailed a loss, at a profit. "—Scrlb Her’* Magaz Ine. NAVAL WAKt’AKE. How Torpeilos and Item. May Be the Leading Weapons. Each vessel will clear for action as soon as the other is discerned—perhaps five miles away. Each will probably slow down at first, in order to gain time for preparation, and especially for getting the stoam pressure up to the highest paint. Forced dratt will at once be started, and the subdued roar of the air driven through the furnaces, to accelerate combustion, and the whir of the dynamos, will be added to the clang of the gun breech blocks, as they are swung open to admit the projectile to the breech, the the hum of the ammunition-hoists rais ing powder and shell to the decks, and the quiet, firm orders of authority. On deck, the Gatliug guns and revolving cannon, and the rapid-fire guns in the tops, are got noiselessly into readiness; the captain takes his place in the armored conning tower with the chief quarter master und his aid; the executive officer assumes charge of the battery, and re mains near at hand to take the captain’s place in case of his death or disability; the range finders are got into position, and the officer in charge begins to report from time to time the distance of the enomy. now drawing closer. Probably not a shot will be fired until this distance is reduced to 2,000 yards, and probably both ships will keep pointed toward each other until that time. But now what will the contestants do? It has been held that both will advance steadily toward each other—each commander hop ing thaL some false move on the part of his adversary will enable him to rush for ward, discharge his bow torpedo at 500 yards, and perhaps follow it up with his ram and end the fight at once—until they have approached so close, say 500 yards, that neither dares to swerve lest he him self be rammed; so that the ships will at length collide end on, and may be both sink! The various inventions of the past few years—rapid-fire guns, high explosives, torpedoes, submarine boate, dynamite guns and range-finders; the increased power and perfection of steam and elec tric machinery; the improvements in powder and in steel for projectiles and for armor—have not revolutionized naval science so much as they have broadened it. The principles of strategy remain the same, and so does the necessity for the seaman’s skill. Engineers construct, in ventors invent, experiments are tried, sham battles are fought, and heated dis cussions agitate the naval mind; but the only thing that can determine the reul conditions of modern naval warture is a modern naval war.—The Forum. TUli HODAG AM) THE EXIT. A Detroit Showman Who Dla the Best He Could. We had forty minutes to wait at the de pot in St. Thomas, and everybody was taking it easy, when a young man from the farm, who was drawn there out of curiosity, perhaps, walked up to a well dressed man who was pacing up and down and began:— "Huy, isn’t your name French?” “It is, sir,” was the reply. "You were running a show in Buffalo last March?” “I was.” "Price of admission was twenty-five cents?” “Exactly.” “Well, 1 was there. I went in. You had a big sign out saving you had a Ho dng on exhibition. Bein’ as I had never seen one I paid my quarter, but it was an infernal swindle. There was no Hodag there.” "Ah, I remember. He was sick for a few days,” “Weil, I waut that quarter back or I’ll taae it out of your hide. When I go iu to see a Hodag the animal has got to be there or the money comes back,” “Quite right,my frieud,” calmly replied the other, "you hanpeued to hit us whoa our Hodag was sick, but we gave you a tar greater curiosity ill bis stead.” "What was it?” “The Exit. Didn’t you see him?” “I saw a sigu over a door, but I didn't see no animal.” “Well, it you didn’t open the door it wasn’t my fault. The Exit was. there to be seen, and everybody who saw him said he beat four Hodags rolled into one ” "Is that so? Well, I waa "in too much of a hurry, 1 guess, and U I have hurt your feelings I beg your pardon.
