"""TkiceXine cent = I MRS. WOOD MOVES Exit From Webster Avenue of the ‘‘Common Scold” Gives Rise to Disgraceful Scenes. POLICE TO THE RESCUE V;ctim of Disorderly Children Taken In a Coaeh to a Downtown Hotel, There was more excitement when Mrs. Charlotte Wood started in again Satur day night to more her furniture from the house Xo. 305 Webster avenue, which she has occupied for t'.e past nine years. When a wagon load of furniture left her home on Wednesday night last the neigh bors, who thought site was moving out then, began to celebrate. Flags were put out and the boys of the neighbor hood paraded the block, blowing tin horns and beating tin pans. Some one even engaded the services of a street band. But Mrs. Wood had-no intention of moving until Saturday night. She lias sold her house and purchased another in Booraem avenue. Siie cannot get con trol of the property she recently purchas ed until June 1 and she decided to store away her furniture. Mrs. Wood was unfortunate in incur ring the enmity of her neighbors for berating their children, who for years have given her unceasing annoyance. She has for a long while been under a physician’s care, and she is almost con stantly in a highly nervous state. The parents of the children, who imagine their little cherubs and eherubims the personification of all that is meek and angelic, have invariably taken their chil dren’s side and, consciously or uncou seiously egged them on. As a result there have been numerous scraps that were aired in the Second Criminal Court and the last time the unfortunate woman was held for the Grand Jury and indict ed as a common scold. The case has not yet been tried. When wagons began conveying Mrs. Wood’s furniture from the home in Web eter avenue Saturday night the neighbors renewed their demonstration of Wednes day night. Flags were again put out, the boys again paraded the block with tin horns, greek fire was burned and the parents of the children applauded from open windows. Lawyer Edward A. Ransom, Sr., who Is Mrs. Wood's attorney, was on hand and in his endeavor to save his client from a repetition of the annoyances of Wednesday night had a run in with Richard Austin, a resident of the block, at whose instigation the lawyer was tak en by Patrolman. Hager to the Central avenue police station, where matters were explained and Mr. Ransom was im mediately released by Police Captain Cox. who sent Sergeant Coffin with a number of reserves to preserve order ih the Webster avenue block. A big por tion of the crowd followed Policeman Hager and Mr. Ransom to the station, r ad then surged back to the scene of the demonstration. The police reserves were obliged to charge several times before the street w'as cleared. A nearby neigh bor from a window was loudly applaud ing some act of the crowd when Sergeant Coffin, looking up, shouted:— “Hi. there; stop that noise.” “I guess I’ve got a right to clap out of "Better out than in”—that humor that you notice. To be sure ii’« out and all out, take Hood’s Sarsaparilla. The Jersey City News. Job Printing Business Cards Letter Heads B ill Heads envelopes Circulars Boon WoRft.

BEWEYJAY This is the anniversary of the gresf battle of Manila Bay when Admiral Dewey -estroyed the Eastern fleet of Spain in ^the Spa.-isli-Amoiican War. Public school children to-day celebrated the glory of the Navy with appropriate j exercises. At School No. 9, the pupils marched to the lot in the rear of the school, where bogle call was sounded. This was followed by the “Star Spangled Banner” and the salute to the flag. Ma jor Brensinger read from the Bible, after which the children sang "My Country 'Tis of Thee” and a hynm. Each child carried a small flag. my own window,” responded the citizen. “But you’ve got no right to make a public ass of yourself,” shouted' back the sergeant. The window shutters closed with a bang. When all the furnitnre except some bric-a-brac was carted away from the house she is leaving Mrs. Wood was es corted by her lawyer to a coach that wits drawn up in front of the house by two prancing horses and drove off to a hotel, where she is stopping for the present. K. OF UO MEET Will Be Held at Asbury Park Tomorrow. Delegates from all the councils in tjie State of the Knights of Columbus, tbe growing Catholic organization, will gath er at Asbury Park to-morrow for the an nual State convention, which promises to be one of the most interesting iu years, by reason of the friendly though active contest that will take place for the office of State deputy, for State representatives to the national convention which will take place at Dos Angeles, Cal., during the week of June 4 to 11. and for State secretary, as well as for one or two other offices. The convention will take place at Winckler’s Hail, and will be called to order at 11 o’cleck by the State deputy. Thomas P. Fay. The present State dep uty is known in the order as one of the most active and earnest men who ever held the position, and as one who has never shirked any duty. Every council of' the State has been visited by him. In recognition of liis wark he was cho sen three successive times to be the head of the order in the State, and, it is antic ipated, will be elected again. For the contest this year, however, he will be op posed by District Deputy John J. Hickey, of Bayonne, another well known and ac tive member. Both men arc close friends but each has been put forward by friends and with the knowledge that the other was. to run, each became a candidate. The State deputy did not wish to be come. a candidate, but a demand for him to serve again developed through various parts of the State aud he finally con sented. In the meantime, friends of the district deputy in Hudson County, in ad miration of his capabilities, had advanc ed his name and gained his consent to stand. Thus the two friends find them selves pitted agaiust each other, hut whatever the outcome their friendly per sonal relations will hardly be altered. Tbe State secretary, Joseph A. McNa mee, of Atlantic City, who has held1 the office for several years, will not be a candidate for re-election, owing to the pressure of other duties in connection with his banking duties. One candidate so far has been announced for the place, Christopher A. Gough, of Trenton. The present representatives to the Na tional Council include the State deputy. Past State Deputy James A. Burns, of East Orange, and James J. McLaughlin, of Newark. The two latter arc -oodi dates for the Log Angeles convention. Mr. Burns ,s one of the most active members of the national board of direct ors, and has traveled all through the country as well as Mexico and Culm in the interest of the order. He is a lin guist and an eloqnent man in each of the languages he speaks, English, German, Span-sh and French. Mr. McLanghlin Is known from one end of the State to the other, as well ns in other Stties and Canada, where he has officiated in various capacities. j M. I. V. LYCEUM'S CHALLENGE The M. I. V.

LEAGUE OPENS AT WEST SIDE PARK Baseball Enthusiasts Crowd the Grounds to Root for the Home Team In Its Game With Newark OFFICIALS ON THE SCENE Skeeters Victorious Over the Birds Saturday But Beat en Yesterday by the Gray3 —Other Soores. The Eastern League’s season at West Side Park opened this afternoon, and despite the fact thijt the greatest show on earth was exhibiting in this city the fans gahered in legions, shouted them selves hoarse, and blew tin horns almost inside out, thus adding din to the open ing ceremonies that were carried out with considerable eclat. That the home team had won but one game o-ut of four played thus far made little difference. It had walloped the Orioles on Saturday with a broken up team and the Orioles were walloped by the Sailors in Newark yesterday. The fans looked forward to a strengthening of the home team to-day and felt confident that the Sailors would at least big) given a run for their money. Tlie intense rivalry between the two Jersey teams had much to do with the excitement. The Sailors brought a transport load of rooters from across the Passaic, An hour's band concert pre ceded the game. The grand stand was a sea of color and animation. Mayor Fagan pitched the first ball over the plate. President P. T. Powers, of the League, attended the opening ceremo nies. He had for hS guests a unmber of men prominent in the baseball world. Henry Devitt, president of the club, and Manager Murray, manager of the team: Secretary and Treasurer Eugene F. Kinkhead and Directors Robert Davis, William J. Davis and Howard C. Grif fiths were also prominent in the gather ing. Whipped twice, the Ske'eters caught on to Burtheii’s curves after an almost nip and tuck contest with the Orioles in Saturday’s game and pounded ont 'five runs in the eighth inning, giving them six runs to the Birds’ two. McCann pitched a good game and was supported in excellent style. Beau made tl»e only error made by the Skeeters, a three base. wild throw. In the eighth inning Clem ent, Bean, Vandefgrift and Keister sin gled successively and with the bases full Merritt hit for three bases, sending the throe men ahead galloping home and he followed shortly afterward.

The Jersey City Lodge of Elks’ bowl ing team was defeated by a team of the Albany, N. Y., Lodge on theElks’, alleys in this city Saturday night. The visitors including about a score of Albany Elks were entertained in a royal manner and took back with them the pin by which the Jersey City team ftvon in Albany a month ago. It (was embellished witii a silver plate appropriately engraved. The i Jersey City team won the first of the three games Saturday niglit by just one pin. The Albanians won the second game by 52 pins and the third by 100 pins. The visitors arrived at the Grand Cen tral etation in New York at 2 o’clock Saturday afternoon. They were met by a committee of Jersey City Elks, compos ed of William McKinley, Charles A. De ncoke. Governenr M. Borst and Exalted Ruler William H. Cassidy, and the entire party made a sight-seeing trip in coaches and dined at the Hotel Astor. After the bowling games were played at night on the Elks’ alleys in this city, tlie entire party, which had been aug mented by many of the local Elks, ad journed to the upper theatre where a banquet was served. The visitors were also regaled with music by Louis Ditt mar’s Bijou Theatre orchestra, the re lation of the story of Bro. Burst's expe riences in Albany by himself, and mono logues and songs by members of the Morning Glory troupe, which performed at the Bon-Ton theatre last week. Bro. Borst presented the visiting bowling team with the pin won from it a month ago in Albany. Bro, William McKinley, who has served so frequently as, chair man of the House Committee and was made a life member, was presented with; a gold life membership card. The pre sentation speech was made by Bro. O’Mealin. Brother McKinley presented Brothers Borst and Denecke with t^vo magnificent pips. Yesterday the visitors were taken on a coach ride along the Boulevard and dined at Wheeler’s Shore House at Ber gen roint. They started for home at 4 o’clock in the afternoon, profuse in their thanks for the splendid manner in which they had been entertained. EASTER COLLECTIONS The Rev. Father Ter Woert |>e*terdny announced tlmt the St. Mary’s Easter collection amounted to S3.300. St. jlrrdjjet's Easter coBetcion amount ed to S2.K50. MERELY MENTIONED The “News” was the only newspaper that predicted the appointment of George Pforr as Clerk of the Board of Tax Commissioners. While the other papers were telling of the exciting contest tliat was going on for the job, between" Dep uty Treasurer Mason and Pforr, the “Netvs” said positively that Pforr had received assurances from Col. Dickinson that the place was his. This paper also supplied the information that John Han non and not John Coyle, for whom the First Ward Republicans were fighting, would get the clerkship of the City Hall Commission. While Pforr is pleased with his pro motion from a clerkship to the Chief Clerkship of the Tax Department, he does not relish the idea of the salary being cut front $2,500 to $1,800 a year. This was done, however, with his knowl edge and was for the purpose of making a place for another Republican. Hanlon’s appointment to the City Hall Commission Clerkship was a surprise only to the followers of “Tom” Connolly of the First Ward. Every one else re garded the appointment of the Second Ward follower of Finance- Commissioner Daudt as certain. As his friends expected, Morris Hei ney, Republican leader of the Eleventh Ward, is not disposed to accept in silence or without protest the turning down by Mayor Fagan of Theodore Brieek for tiie appointment of Health Commission er. He feels that it is a slap at his leadership and he has announced his in tention of showing his displeasure at the action of the Mayor in a manner that cannot be misunderstood. Brieek was the choice of the Republican organization of the Eleventh Ward. In addition to the indorsement of the Ward Club, he had the earnest and enthusiastic support of Mr. Heiney, who stood ready to stake his leadership on tile success or defeat of Brieek. “It must be Brieek or I shall get out," declared Heiuey one night last week. He has changed his mind abuut getting out. “I will retain my leadership,” he said after he had fully considered the effect of Brieek’s turning down, “and will wage a bitter fight against the renomination of Mayor Fagan. I shall spend $1,000 to get even with the Mayor. I am sur prised and disgusted at the way he has treated the Eleventh Ward Republican organization. What is the use of having a ward organization if its recommenda tions in the matter'of appointments are 10 be ignored?” Those who know Heiney say he is not the kind of a man to allow himself to be jumped on without striking back, and lively times may be looked for from now 011 in the Eleventh Ward. Heiney and his followers will remain in the organi zation. They are staunch supporters of Col. Dickinson and in their fight with the Mayor the will not do any thing to harm the City leader, who stood by them in their efforts to land Brieek in the Health Board. Reuben Simpson did not tell the Grand Jury the name of the “prominent politi cian” who, according to rumor, receives $1,000 a week for protecting the pool rooms. The reason was he did not know. Mr. Simpson was forced to admit that he had no positive knowledge that pro tection money was handled by “a prom inent politician,” or any one else. He said he had heard tiiat such was the ease, but had no direct information. Persons who read Mr. Simpson's state merit 'will be surprised at this, for they were led to believe that he had the name of the person to whom the money was paid and that he was ready to give it to tin; proper authorities. Former Senator Robert S. Hudspeth made a ranting Democratic speech re cently at a banquet in Newark and since then his name has been prominently con pled With the nomination for Governor. Mr. Hhdspeth had heard po much talk on the subject that he decided to make known his position. “I am not a candidate for Governor, nor will I be," he said. "I have no fur ther political ambitions. To the end of my days I shall work for the success of the Democratic party and Democratic principles but no more public office for me. It's the practice of law for mine tile rest of my days.” Mr. Hudspeth is probably as well and favorably known as any man in the State of New Jersey, and there are many Democrats who think lie would make a winning candidate. It isn’t because he doesn't think the Democrats cau win that he does not want the nomination, for lie fully believes that the Republicans have lost the confidence of the people and will be driven from power at the next State election, IJke many other Democrats, the former .Senator entertains the opinion that Roosevelt’** popularity was the only thing that saved the party last fail. . . • _, _ .. P. E. CONVENTION MEETSJN MAY Bishop Lines Has Called the Deputies to Assemble in Grace Church Orange CHANGE IN RULING BODY Some Members of the Execu tive Committee Are to Re tire—New Parishes to Be Formed. (Special to “The Jersey City News.,f) NEWARK, May 1, 1905.—Aside frofa the important matters of a financial na ture which the approaching diocesan con vention of the Protestant Episcopal Church will consider and act upon, the various parishes are particularly inter ested in the election of members of the standing committee. Bishop Edwin S. Lines has selected May 1G and 17 as the dates of the gathering of deputies this year in Grace Church, Orange, and be tween now and the opening of the two days’ session the candidacy of clergymen and representatives of the laity for elec tion to this executive committee of the diocese will prove an absorbing topic. The present personnel of this commit tee is: The Rev. Dr. Holley, of Hack ensack, president; Archdeacon William R. .Tenvey, of St. Paul’s, Hoboken; sec retary; the Rev. Charles C. Ermunds, of Grace, Newark; the Rev. Frank B. Rea zor, of St. Mark’s, West Orange; John A. Gifford, of Trinity, Newark; Vice Chancellor John R. Emery, Church of the Redeemer, Morristown; D. Smith Wood, Christ Church, East Orange; and E. A. S. Lewis, of Trinity, Hoboken. While little has been said about possi ble changes among the laymen on the committee there 1ms been a quiet but determined effort to bring about the election of the Rev. Louis Sh'reve Os borne, rector of Trinity, this city, as a clerical member. Mr. Osborne declares that he is not a candidate for the honor, but his friends— and they are many—insist that lie must be chosen for a place among the eight. These endeavors in Mr. Osborne’s behalf are being exerted solely by those who have his interests and advancement at heart. Personally, he will in no way co operate with these champions and plain ly says that lie knows nothing about tfreir plans. The election of a new clerical member of the committee naturally implies the supplanting of one of the divines at present composing the body. Who the one to retire would be is q trite uncertain, bnt in the words of a low church rector, “it will probably be the Rev. Mr. Ed munds.” This rector further declared that Mr. Osborne would again receive the votes of his many supporters, and with greater chances of success than last year, when he was defeated by the rec tor of Grace Church. The latter is known to aspire to re election, and he will receive the votes of the high church deputies. This is his third year as a standing committee mem ber, At the last convention he was re turned through a coalition of Ins own party and some scattering moderates. The effective work accomplished by the standing committee during the last year makes almost certain dtp re-election of all font- lay members. Since the 1904 convention Vice-Chancellor Emery, in collaboration with the bishop, has spent much time upon legal affairs of the dio cese of supreme importance, while the other laymen have devoted themselves to the business matters with equal energy , and zeal. As to the financial topics-to come be fore the 1 (105 deputies the principal sub ject of consideration will bo ijte report of the special finance committee. It was appointed at the last convention, and consists of William M. Franklin, of Or ange. chairman; Clutrles Elkin, of Jer sey City; J. Stuart Mae Kie, of Morris-' town; T. J. S. Rutan. of Madison; John A. Gifford, of Newark; witli the bishop and president of the standing committee as ex-officio members. Speaking of this matter Bishop Bines said to-day: “They are expected to make reports1! and suggestions at the convention con cerning the financial administration of the diocese. What is desired is to bring unity and system into the business af fairs of the diocese and to apportion the amounts to be raised upon live parishes as equitably as possible. “Much,has been accomplished already, and a geserpua spirit has been shown, Telephone Service Contracts for TELE PHONE service are now being taken at the New Reduced Rates Effective May 1st. Residence from *2.50 per month. Business from $2.50 per month. Residence unlimited local service from M per month. Call nearest contract office for full information. ICO Market St.. Newark. N. J. Tel. 5010 Newark, 8 Erie St.. Jersey City. N. J. Tel. 5150 Jersey City. The New York and New Jersey Telephone Company the part of the parishes in accepting their diocesan obligations. The expendi tures are for diocesan missions; the sup port, of the bishop; convention and con tingent expenses. The best business judgment has been given to tlie subject and the movement is toward order and unity in administration of funds.” Very few vacancies have been made in the committees or boards by death or removal. The two archdeacons, Dr. Mann and Dr. Jen vex-, will make their reports concerning diocesan missionary work, and will be able to report the be ginning of work in some new places. The rectors of all the parishes trill make their reports to tlie bishop ut tbe time of the convention, and the facts- are in corporated in the diocese “Journal,” which is published later. All diocese in stitutions will make their reports at this time also and the condition and expendi ture of their funds will also be reported, j Two missions will ask for admission as parishes, the Chureh of the A.ssensien, j Jersey City, and 'St- George's, Maple | wood; both having come to such strength ! as to be self-supporting and able to meet alt diocesan obligations. The departure of the Rev. Dr. Mann, j of Grace Church, Orange, this summer, will leave vacant the office of archdeacon of Newark, which is an appointment of the bishop. Another interesting subject of which the convention will hear is rite plan of men of tlie Episcopal Church throughout the country for a thank offering Jpr mis sions to be made at the general conven tion in Richmond in 1907. During the seeonil week of May divine service will be held for tile first time in tlie new cliureh of St. Mark’s, in Pater son, whan formal opening exercises will be held. Tlie reports which bare been so far re ceived from the various parishes tell an eloquent story of iiow- well Easter was everywhere observed. They show that the end of l ent and Easter week brought, many confirmations, among them being tlie following: St. Andrew’s, South Orange, 18: Grace Church. Orange, 74: St. Phillip’s, New ark, 27: St. John’s. West Hoboken, 41; St. John’s, Jersey City, 88; St. Paul's.

PGL1GE SHOW’S FINE ENO The crowd that attended the police show Saturday night proved to be the record breaker. The Bijou was densely packed. After the show the members “who figured in the. east of Chief Mur phy's playlet, the Chief himself, a num ber of the vaudeville performers, includ ing the Empire City Quartette, the com mittee that arranged the great affair and a number of invited guests, rejiaired to Seluietzen Hall in Third street, where a spread was enjoyed and the brilliant suc cess of the affair celebrated in a becom ing manner. SAVED BY HER FATHER In a Few Hours a Vacant -;• -jv; Lot at Central Avenue and North Street Was Thick* ly Populated BARNUsW'3 SHOW IN TOWN ■ Small Boy and His Sister With Some Grown Ups Watch the Rearing of the Big Tents , Many thousands of people yesterday visited the grounds at Central avenue and North street, where the Great Bar num ifc Bailey circus tents rat pitched, and watched with amazing interest ?>Sbe quiet and systematic working of an army of men converting within a few hours the stretch of open laud iuto an enor mous tented field where will be seen this afternoon and evening the greatest show oil earth. The small boy who appeared early on the scene yesterday had his ap petite whetted for the exhibition and per formance by u glimpse of the great herds of elephants aud camels and droves of magnificent trained horses aud ponies as they were driven on the scene, to be in stalled beneath the various canvasses, white his imagination was aroused to the highest pitch by the noises that emanated from tile long line of closed cages con taining wild animals brought from al most every portion of the earth. Evea the red and blue painted canvas, pole ami property wagons planted about the field had a great fascination for him. His lit tle sister at various hours of the day was almost as numerous as he was. - - The spleudid maimer in which the horses are cared for interested all the ‘ visitors, young and old, and they crowd ed around every opening to gaze at the long rows of the noble animals as they were being fed and groomed. Some of them are the finest blooded stock of any horses itr the world, and beautiful to gaze upon. As much care was being given the trained horses and ponies as is taken of the star performers and some being wash- j ed with soap suds caused some to think they were enjoying, milk baths. One man takes care of every four of the many hundred horses employed, and the horses fare as well as the men do them selves, if not better. The men and even some of the high-salaried artis.ts are fed in a large tent, where the service is as good as that of an ordinary hotel and on a more elaborate scale. The artists, however, do not sit at the same'tables with the hostlers and tent meu. An amazing feature of tbe vast amount of work performed in pitching the tents and arranging for the great performances is the absence of noise and the orderly manner in which the men, like automatons, go about their work. Despite the sledging of stakes the hoist ing noise of tbe Mock and falls and horse power, the wheeling of cumbersome cages into position, the laying of loose planks and folding-back sears for the seating of over twenty thousand people who will witness the two big perform ances. the reconstruction of the lofty steel ribbed inclines down which byet clists and automobilists will rush in death daring flights in the thrilling loop ing the loop and the quadruple gap—one within lialf a block of the scene would hardly have known that preparations for the great show were in progress, ex cept for the crowds of curious people at tracted.
