 Atuater-Other Proceedings at Last Nights Meeting.
 A meeting of the New Haven Colony His- torical society was held last evening. For a half hour before the time of meeting many members and friends of the society came into the rooms and by aid of the catalogue "Ob- iects of Interest," examined them with much interest Precisely at 8 o'clock p. m. the president Professor S. E. Baldwin, called the meeting to order, the two rooms being we'll filled. The secretary read the proceedings of the last meeting with brief sketch of the lecture on Montana, delivered on the 25th of May last by Judge L. E. Munson. The president briefly mentioned the entry upon the records of the tribute to the memory of John W. Barber, one of the oldest members of the society, and told of his good historical work done for our town, city, State and Peterson, long an honored member and di- rector. Both passed away since the society's last meeting. The curator read more recent list of donations as the whole list was too long to read Rev. Mr. E. E. Atwater was then introduced and read his paper on "New Haven newspapers of the last century, It consisted of studies and extracts of more interest to the student of history than to people generally, but of much interest to all

The Methodist church was crowded to its utmost capacity Sunday evening, the occa- sion being the first public meeting held un- der the auspices of the West Haven division Sons of Temperance. The church made 8 fine appearance with the rich and tasteful decorations furnished by the Sunday school; pyramids of cut flowers, pillow of dahlias, a cross and anchor, with bouquets of flowers were arranged about the pulpit Harmony division of New Haven was represented by twenty-five members, who came on special car A choir from the division executed the musical portion of the programme in man. ner very creditable to themselves and to the enjoyment of the large congregation.

Carieatures of Nature.

The number of women in this city who use cosmetics seems to be increasing rapidly from year to year. There is apparently no regard paid to the fact that such things ruin the skin and make caricature of nature An odd sight on Main street yesterday was young colored lady, well dressed and with great quantities of white face powder be- smeared uneven1y over her features Many white women, whose powdered faces were scarcely an improvement on this curious sight, expressed by their looks pity and sur prise at the dusky girls ambition. One who claims to know says raw potato is more ef- fectual in besutifying the complexion than cosmetics The direction is to rub the face with the flesh of the raw vegetables, wash the face and neck, to be followed by gentle friction. Ladies are urged to keep raw po- tato on the washstand at all times. One po- tato may be used several times, as it is nec- essary only to remove little of the outer surface and pare off thin slice before ap- plying the freshly-cut surface.-Hartford Times.

 Dr. c. A. Lindsley, secretary of the State Board of Health, in 6 circular which is being sent out to the health officers of the towns of this State on the prevention and control of smallpox, after reciting the prompt measures taken and vigilance now being exercised in States north of us on the subject, quotes from the Connecticut statute law giving the special enactments relating to the constitu- tion of town boards of health and to the pro- lection of the public from smallpox and oth- CT contagious diseases. Regarding the pro- tective measures taken north of this State he says:
 The State Board of Health urgently calls upon State to provide against this threatened danger. It would advise every local Board of Health to be ing this emergency and being prepared to meet promptly and effectively every appearance of the The States Of Vermont @ New S Hsmpshire IDS % and New Ali passengers entering these states from Canada svdences of vaccinston, and they I and their bag [ gage are treated as each case requires. entitled Rsli~az Pspection serVies. stste Board of Health, New & &aampshi~rsn am ~

 On the margin, however, is a cipher device, of which every health officer in the State has the key by which he can read whether the passengers came from an infected or uninfected locality whether vaccinated or not, and if he has bag gage.
 At every manufacturing town in New Hamp- shire on railway the health officer is at the sta tion to receive all who get of. If their tickets show that they come from Montreal. or other in fected places they at once taken to fumigatiDg rooms rooms where their clothing and baggage are fumf gated, ana If they have not been vaccnated they ir1Mmed1nateiy Ma,c have the operation performed.

But such precau- tions require organized vigilance which every town Board of Health has the power to exercise and the obligation to exercise in every place in intercourse with Canada.
 Wherever therefore in the State of Connecticut no town board has yet been organized, the State board would strongly urge the importance of i'm mediately organizing such board under the law.
