Of YALE 1t is the anniversary OF the Theological

made a department OF Yale College as early
as 1908, 1t has, until comparatively late years. been
in anything but thriving condition. The the
ology was Manufactured and the students harder
featured. Three years ago an impetus was given
to its material prospects by the construction OF
the new Divinity Hall, and an accession made to
their intellectual wealth by the acceptance OF the
chair OF Systematic Theology by Dr. Samuel Harris,
formerly President OF B0wdoin College. The stu

THE HOWARD MISSION.

The Celebration OF the Twelfth Ami
vcrsary In the Academy OF Musician
Immense Audience and Splendid En-.
tertainment.
The Academy OF Music was crowded yesterday
evening on the occasion OF the celebration OF the
twelfth anniversary OF the Howard Mission and
Home LOT Little Wanderers, No. 40 New Bowery.
On the platform were some two hundred children be-
tween the ages OF five and twenty. Mr.. A. S. Hatch
was in the chair. The exercises were opened by
prayer by the Rev. Louis A. Jackson. The children
then sang very prettily after which the Treasurer
read his annual report The receipts during the past
year $31, 457 s.; the expenditures $50 $40 AZ
cash balance, $647 81. The President. Mr.. A. 8.
Hatch, delivered an address. The Howard Mission,
he said, aimed at the relief OF the body, the educa-
ton OF the mind, and at religious traini ng-com-
bining these three agencies for the elevation OF the
AFFECT poor. Alter all that was being done by the
public schools and by the churches, there was yet
complished by the Howard Mission. The Rev.
George II. Hepworth delivered also an eloquent
address, in which he said: "God has
raised up among us good men and good women,
who are not satisfied with their own happiness,
but who want, also, to see others happy; who were
not satisfied with living on the avenue alone, but
jewel that may shine on the coronet Of redemp-
ton. This Is q country where ones grandfather
counts for nOthing-where we do not look back
upon the past, but look forward to the future. We
ought to extend our sweetest hopes to these chill
dren, clad In the garb OF festivity and saved
through the fundamentally OF good men and good
women" The Rev. L. M. Pease made few re-
marks, giving some OF his interesting experiences
in the missionary work in the Five Points, and the
rest OF the programme included singing by the
children, under the direction Of T. f. Perkins,
entertainment was complete success botn in
financial and artistic point of view.
