THE RED MEN OF NEW HAVEN.

Memorable Gathering Last Evening.
 Last evening may be set down as an event in the history of secret orders in New Haven. Of the five hundred and thirty members of Hammonassett tribe of Red Men, five hun dred and ten were present in the wigwam (Atheneum), and so great was the interest manifested that but one person left before the close of the ceremonies at 1920 this morning. The occasion was the exemplifca- tion of the work by the brethren from Springfield. For this purpose all of the local officers vacated their chairs, and the various degrees were conferred with a completeness and strict regard to detail that held the mem- bers to the closest attention for four hours. Great Sachem William J. Dinsmore of the Great council of Massachusetts was present and watched the proceedings with the deep est interest.
 It was the first conferring of degrees since the closing of the charter, and Antonio A. Rockwell is entitled to the honor of being the first candidate to enter the mysterious order ill due and ample form. He was quickly followed by Charles E. Howe, the two candidates occupying the attention of the scribe the entire evening. After the con- ferring of the four degrees the following com mittee was appointed to arrange the formal dedication of the wigwam January 4: F. P. Bushnell, c. c. Smith, S. s. Thompson, L.. D. Chidsey, Nathan Easterbrook, jr. At 12:30 this morning the council fire was for malIy quenched by Great Sachem Dinsmore, and after banquet at Downes' the visitors took their departure for Massachusetts.
 The Red Men will spare no expense to ren- der their hall, the Atheneum, one of the finest in this part of the country. All the arrangements therefor are not fully decided upon, there having been little time tor any thing but taking in new members and get ting into shape for business. The entire nall has, however, beer carpeted with splendid Administer. MT. H. w. Foster & Co.,, the carpet merchants, executed the order, and had the work completed before meeting time last night. Four hundred yards were re- quired, and the wigwam of Hammonassett tribe, I. o. of R. M, is immensely improved thereby.

A Paper Read Before The Connect cut Congregational Club By Rev EraStus BlakesIee.

Paper Read Before The Connect.
 cut Congregational Club By Rev.
 Erastus Blakeslee.
 General Erastus Blakeslee, of New Haven, read paper yesterday forenoon before the members of the Connecticut Congregational club in the chapel of the Park church, Hart ford, upon the history, theory and practical workings of the Society of Christian Endeavor. The movement which was started at Portland, Me-, with about ffty-eight members in 1881 now numbers 1 100 societies having a total mem bership of 75,0O0. In Connecticut there are 200 societies with a membership of 5000, 90 per cent. being Congregationalists. The societies in this State are located chiefly in Hartford, New Haven and Litchield counties. The growth of the organization is unprecedented in religious history. It is now of national importance and even has newspapers of it's own. Judging from it's present rate of increase the society will num- Der 500, 900 in five years, and round mil lion to ten-at the end of the next decade.
 The wonderfully rapid growth of the socie- ty attests it's usefulness, and there is concur rent testimony from all parts of the land proving the same thing. Among other good results mentioned was the bringing of the young people into closer relation with each other. In this way is produced the comrade- ship of noble purpose. The society exerts tremendous hold on the future, and this is what makes it so attractive. The paper was warmly received Discussion and a collation. followed

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-The President sent to the Senate to- day the nomination of James w. Matthews (negro), of Albany, to be re- corder of deeds in the District of Columbia. The nomination is accompanied by long statement from the President citing his req sons for making the nomination. He says that there existed at the time that the Senate passed upon the original nomination preju- dice against the appointment among citizens of the District of Columbia which doubtless had much to do in bringing about the rejec- tion; that Mir. Matthews has been in posses sion of the office for five months and has suc- ceeded in rescuing it's record from loss and illegibility, etc.

NIT. Watson Refuses to Give 1
 Length of the Thistle.

MT. Watson Refuses to Give she Length of the Thistle. BOSTON, Dec. 21.-Yacht Designer Bur-
 gess has been endeavoring to get the length
 of the new yacht Thistle, which Watson, the Scotchman, is building to contest the Amer icas cup. Watson has written Burgess that he will give the water length line provided Burgess will agree to build g yacht of the same length to meet her and no other. MT. Burgess says: t'This seems to me very silly. It would not only prevent our yachtsmen from building yachts to suit themselves, but it is unfortunate as showing the spirit that actuates our friends on the other side in en- tering into the matter. MT. Watsons reply if adhered to would deprive the cup races of their chief value, which is to stimulate the building of new yachts with the purpose of making advances in speed. Of course I could not agree to the conditions named" Now that it seems certain that the canny Scotchman will give no more information than the deed of trust of the cup compels them to it is likely that the work will be be- gun immediately on MT.

 CARLL's OPERA HOUSE.
 Modjeska, who will give two perform ances Christmas day at Carll's, has just closed g brilliant engagement of eight weeks at the Union Square Theater in New York. It is hardly necessary at this late day to speak of her high standing as dramatic art ist, but it will not be out of place to say that she has gathered around her a company of exceptional excellence. Mary Stuart will be her afternoon bill and Daniela will be presented for the evening performance.

His lecture, the last of the season, illustrated the Imperial gallery at St. Petersburg and was fully as interesting and instructive as those which have preceded it. By special re- quest MT.

The play comes to the public with the pres tige of long run in London and with the added commendation of the artistic success which MT. Wilson Barrett, one of Its au- | thors, achieved i'll it's principal role during ! its early representations in that city.
