Keep Your Ego on Godey,s.

THERE Is every indication that Godey's
Magazine for October, ready Septemb Der

literature. This will no longer be

Godey's fashions will be q most con.
spicuous and the beautiful feature of
the publication, there being, in addi-
tion to carefully edited descriptions and
fashion articles, four exquisite plates
produced in ten eolors and representing
four of the leaders of New York society,
attired in the latest Paris costumes. Mrs.

The setting apart of the members of the first class of the training school for deaconesses in the New York diocese of the Protestant Episcopal church will take place on Sunday, October ?, in Grace church. Bishop Potter will then ordain three young women to the diaeo- nate order, with impressive ceremonies akin to those which mark the ordination of deacons in the succession of the priesthood. The school was opened in October, 1890, as an experiment, under charge of Rev pr Huntington, rector of Grace church; but has since been incor- porated as the New York training school for deaconesses, under the management of trustees, becoming diocesan instead of parochial. The women who enter this school take considerable course of theo- logical study and, at the same time, are thoroughly taught in many practical lines, such as cooking for the sick poor and nursing them in their own homes. Special arrangements are also made to make the students familiar with the ac- tual work done in hospitals, missions, reformatories, prisons and other public institutions and three months of each
 year the student must devote to daily care of the sick.

NUMBER B.

A large crowd of almost 300 witnessed the ball game. Sunday afternoon, on the Glen ground between the N. Y. B. 6 P. Co. club and strong team from Dan- bury. The home team put in a fine game, making only one error, which gave run to the opposite side. The score was N. Y. B. & P. Co.,, 3; Dan bury,3. The same Danbury team will play the home on the Glen grounds, La bor day. The N. Y. B. & P. Co. team expect to go to Bridgeport, Saturday, and play the Yost team. It is too bad that such good ball players have not more respect for the great Umpire, who placed the fourth commandment as short stop in the field of weekly toll.
