1T PLEASED ALL.

A jolly Time and a Crowded House
at the Humphrey Street Church
Last Evenins-West Haven Quakers
on Deck.
There were jolly times st the Humphrey
street Congregational church last evening
as the result of the Quaker entertainment
given by the West Haven Congregational
church Y. P. S. G. E. The house was
packed, there being hardly standing room.
Everybody was pleased. The entertain
ment was given in return compliment to
the Humphrey street church friends who
gave the farley wax works SO well and sue
cessfully at the West Haven Congregational
church. The West Haveners came up and
returned in a special car, and created
quite CONSERVATION at the corner of
Chapel and Church streets as they all sat
in the car waiting to start for home, all
rugged up in their Quaker costumes. Many
ladies who happened along at that time
were beset with feminine curiosity to
know what it all meant, and the fair faces
in the deep Quaker bonnets created a deep
and lingering interest in party of Yalen-
slams, who seemed possessed with mad
den desire to take ride to West Haven.
The program given last night. with the
cast, is appended below. All did vel, and
the efforts of Mrs. Graham, Mrs. Whitney,
Mrs. Gum and Charles Augur were espe-
cially well received and encored. The en-
tertainment was so taking that Miss Hume
made overtures to the end of securing
the same for English hall, this city, at an
early date. The subject is under consid-

The LegisIature.

HARTFORD, Jan. Ex-senator Read will
undoubtedly preside over the senate here
after without interruption: General Nor
win, when asked to-day, said he would not
go to Hartford Tuesday to preside or at
any other time, he thought. It was very
dlstasteful to him, and he would not have
taken the position last Tuesday that he
q1o mad ne not considered it public duty
Having been there once and called the
senate together he considered that all that
was required of him had been done. An
intimate friend Of DR.. Alsop, the demo-
cratic claimant, who has already presided.
says that DR.. Alsop will not make another
attempt to preside until the title is abso-
1utely clear. The doctor says that when
he can take the position without any dis
pute as to his constitutional right to do 80
he will, and not until the present difficulty
is settled. His health is poor and he does
not wish to subject himself to undue ex-
element. There will, therefore, be no &C.
casion for the presence of any deputy
sheriffs at the capitol next week.

THE STATE Y. Nj. C. A. REPORT
A Very Favorable Showing for the
Past Year.

Past Year.
The annual report of the various Y. NJ
G. associations throughout the state has
just been issued. The associations seem
to have accomplished considerable work
in the missionary line during the past
year and are highly elated over the show
ing made. Nearly all report an increase
of membership and swelling of their
funds. Those that have not buildings of
their own have real estate upon which to
build or fund which they will in time
devote for that purpose.
The Bridgeport association is the most
prosperous of any in this state, owning
over 500, 1000. Hartford comes next with
real estate valued at 100000 and build
ing fund of $3S, 42050. New Haven has
not been doing much in the building line
of late although it has a fund of about
81 ,OOO This has been standing amount
for nearly two years.
Some people have very unfairly COM
pared the New Haven association with the
one in Torrington.
The Torrington association is about to
erect briilding which will be worth about
81, 900 when complete. But this should
not reflect unfavorably on New Haven, be-
cause everybody knows that real estate
values in New Haven are quadruple those
of Torrington, and to procure building
for that amount in the center of this city
or only the land alone is next to impossi-
BILE. Besides Torrington has been pre-
sented with the lot upon which they are
now building, whereas New Haven had to
raise their fund by subscription from its
own members.
The following is comparative table
showing the cost of buildings, value of
real estate and amount of building fund of

| and daughter, came to this city
| from South Britains about twenty years
| ago. He first engaged in the grocery
business on the corner of Columbus aven-
| ne and Christopher street and continued
in it for several years. After that he was
connected with several grocery firms Of
this city. Among which was that of Som
ers & Stowe On Church street. Between
eight or nine years ago Mr.. Hinman start
ed the livery stable on Temple street
which he has ever since been running. HI

walked up State street. He was arrested
few minutes later by Officer Cowles, who
had been appraised of the affair.
