The Congregational ladies have ''caught
on" to the latest fashion for SOcials and be-
gan few days since to work for an sex
perience" in the way of earning money for
the parsonage fund.- Nearly all of them
found what they sought. 1t was arranged
for them to meet at Mrs. G. e. Godfrey's last
Friday evening to tell their experience and
pay in their hard earned dollars. No pains
was spared by Mr.. and Mrs. Godfrey in
preparing for good time. TO make sure
of plenty of music Mr.. John Whelan was
invited to come with his fiddle" Miss
Edith Whelan was also present to play the
piano and sing sweet music. When the
convenient time had come, the lady laborers
formed into line and marched to the sound
of music through the room and dropped
their hard cash in the treasurer's dish, max
ing sweet music for our ears. When counted,
$5S were found to have been paid in. Then
the gentlemen caught the inspiration OF the
occasion and contributed several dollars,
which with the regular 10c social collection
swelled the proceeds of the evening to $50.
Several ladies who had been earning dol
lar or more could not be present, but when
ali inventory of the cash i'm sight was
taken il was found that this effort amounted
to over S100. 1t was amusing and suggest
i've to hear the ladies tell how they earned
their dollars. Some baked and sold bread
from house to house, others washed buggles,
cleaned house for their neighbors, painted
door screens, made and sold ''dutch cheese, y
peddled cookies, mended their husbands
galluses took boarders, and one was heard
to say she sold kisses for 10c apiece and an
other sold hulled corn to earn her dollar.
The boys took part in the affair and sold
popcorn. 1t was pleasant occasion and
the financial results made the cake and Ice
cream the more enjoyable. Mr.. and Mrs.
Chas. Whelan and daughter May, of Vernon,
Mr.. and Mrs. Olcott, of Pittsburg, Mich,
and DIR. Jackson, Of Grand Rapids, were
among the guests. X, Lewis, for

Rain Interferes With the New Haven
 Syracuse Game - To Play In This
 City Saturday-Notes.
 Rain or rather wet grounds, those two great adversaries of baseball prevented the New Haven team from winning another game from Syracuse yesterday. The boys are now in excellent shape and playing great ball. The new men, Johnston and Flanagan, reported to Manager Shannon at Syracuse yesterday and would have played in yesterdays game. Both men are in the pink of condition, and will prove valuable acquisitions to the local team. Cross, the new short shop, is also with the team and is putting up @ hustling game. He is, without question, the very best short stop in the entire league. The team will journey to Elmira this morning and this afternoon will try with Jimmy Knowles' strong club. They play in that city again to- morrow, and Saturday return home, open ing up with the strong Syracuse team on the local grounds. In the game to-day Fournier will do the twirling, while the receiving end of the battery will be looked after by Phil Blsnsfeld. It is safe to pre- dict victory for New Haven to-day. STOLEN BAsEs.

 The members of the class of '93 of Yale, of which young Vanderbilt was member, will attend the funeral in body.
 Chauncey M. Depew, speaking of the deceased, said: Unlike many boys coming into such a vast fortune, he was most democrat whether rich or poor And Yale is the most democratic of colleges; most of the fellows there are of limited means, I never knew a more since he was a child. At one time there was a deficit in the fund for the gymnasium amount ing to Sso oOo, and he @ wrote @ home to his fathe. amount for him to subscribe. He wouldn't head the list. He thought that amount was about fear he would be regarded as displaying his wealth: And at the same time he was much much as would be generous and in good taste on the part of one of his means. He was a work very hard to keep ahead of his studies He loved society, was stroke oar in his crew, played polo Orode beautifully and loved yacht. man told me day before yesterday that he thought he was the finest horseman he had ever seen. I remember when we went down to Greece how pluoky he was He was thoroughly familiar with the archaeology and architecture of Greece and so understood and appreciated everything saw.
 MT. Depew did not agree with Engineer Charles F. Wingate that young Mir. Vanderbilt may have been affected with the germs of typhoid at Yale. Typhoid was prevalent in Chicago while he was there on the Easter vacation trip and he proba- bly, caught it there.
 MT. Depew said it was not so that the deceased had left Q will. He had left none.
