 Those who heard the first lecture will need l no urging to attend that of to-day, as the 1 reverend gentleman is a very interesting | speaker. Seats are free.
 HOME FOR THE FRIENDLEss. The entertainment which was to have been given at the Atheneum this and tomorrow
 evenings, in behalf of the Home for the Friend
 less, is unavoidably postponed until Monday
 and Tuesday evenings on account of the ill., ness of two of the gentlemen who are to take
 leading parts. Although quite number of tickets have been sold, it should be borne in mind that the entertainment is given in be- half of a worthy institution and therefore the opportunity to add mite for charity's sake
 should not be passed unheeded. Mrs. Rob ertson will assist in Su1livan's operetta "Cox and Box'' and Miss Ingerson in How ards pretty play of Old Love Letters, " which together with other features will undoubtedly
 make the entertainment very enjoyable and successful one.
 RED RIDING HOOD.
 The pretty juvenile operetta of Red Riding
 Hood was at desire of friends repeated last
 evening at Peck's Grand Opera House. It was given short time since at the same
 place. The assisting talent was mainly the
 same as on the previous occasion, viz. Miss Emma Pond, of Boston, soprano; Mrs.
 Young, soprano Gin place of Miss Kirschner,
 who was indisposed); MT. Frank Bissen, first tenor of the B Quartette MT. C.. W. Grif- filth, basso; the little Sanford orators, and last but not least the Misses Emma Schnee- lock, accompanist, and Millie Schneelock, daughters of MT. Hugo Schneelock In ad- milton there were Miss Lura Faircnild, queen in the semi-chorus of Blue Bells; Charles Brooks, Robin Julia Roller, Porter Clarke and thirty or forty young masters and misses who formed the chorus. The adult singers filled their respective roles in their usually acceptable manner, and frequently awakened enthusiasm and all were highly pleased with the charming voice of Miss Millie Schneelock thirteen years of age, who has sung before New Haven audiences with notable success for so young vocalist She most pleasant ly filled the role of 4Little Red Riding Hood J In the duet from Martha by Misses Emma and Millie Schneelock little Red Riding Hood was rapturously applauded and both did fine ly The tableaux were very prettily given with the aid of colored fire. The little San- ford orators were as usual favorites.

us to call attention to the fact, that in
all new school districts organized since

School Districts in which there is a hold
over Trustee, two Trustees must be
elected, one for the long term. Voters
by making a note of this will avoid

ADVICE TO POLITICIANS.
Vote as You Please, but Keep Your
Temper.

Vote as You Please, but Keep Your
Temper.
An editor who has been observing the
tactics of politicians gives them the fol-
lowing advice
"Above all things don't lose your
temper about politics. IL doesn't pay.
1t always makes fool of the angry
party and nevw helps his cause or can
didate. Don't lose your temper.
"Partisan voters, organs and curb
stone statesmen of both parties have
their work to do. They are the glitter
ing tyolls or wriggling minnows of the
political sport, by which the game is to
be bagged by those who hope to enjoy
the meal after the sport is over. But
even sensible men often nibble at the
bait and sometimes they gulp it down,
hook and all, and become the toy OF the
political hammer. They meet in daily
intercourse, drift into politics, lose their
tempers, sever their friendships, de-
throne their reason, and all because the
glittering party trolls or wriggling min
nows have infamed their political APP
petites and tempted them to folly, only
to be laughed at when the sport is over
Don't lose your temper.
Think, talk, act, pay, cheer and
march in politics as your Judgment in
clines; but keep your wits and anna
bilty about you. The industry and
energy Of the people will make the
country prosperous, as they have done
in the past under the control of all
parties, and there is nothing in the
present contest to warrant any sensible
citizen in making a fool of himself by
losing his temper, his cash and his
common sense because speculative poll
ticians and paid falsifiers ply their vo-
cations before the public. Keep cool
and wise and the country will keep it.

temper.

In our style of climate, with its sud
