A Surprise.

A number of the employees of Messrs. H. c. Rowe & Go. assembled Monday even- ing at the residence of Captain Har- vey Barnes on Center street, in the annex, accompanied by MT. Henry O. Rowe, who, in behalf of the gentlemen, presented the genial captain with hand some easy chair. In the course of his re- marks he alluded to the long term of years the captain has been in the employ of the firm, the faithful way in which he has always discharged his duties and his genial manner, which makes him 8 favorite, not only among his business associates, but also all his friends.
 Replying, the captain said that he had been taken so by surprise that he was un- able to collect his thoughts to make 8 speech, but expressed his thankfulness and appreciation for the gift, and stated that it was one of the pleasantest times of his life and should always remember it as such.
 Refreshments were served, and the even ing pleasantly spent in social enjoyment; one which will never be forgotten by any of those present.
 The party consisted of Messrs. Henry c. Rowe, George 0. Foote, James Howard, George Gessner, Edwin Mallory, Everett Wright, Charles G. Pset and John O. Rowland.

UNITED LENTEN SERVICES.

Dives and Lazarus-Tho Ever-widen-
 ing Gulf.
 The Rev. E. Winchester Donald, D. D., rector of the Church of the Ascension, New York city, delivered fine sermon at St. Paul's Episcopal church last evening. His text was taken from the parable of Lazarus and Dives. He said:
 We are told that Dives was a rich man, who had accumulated and appropriated to himself much of the good things of this life; who looked out for the comforts of his own body and cared not for God nor his fellow-beings. He was not blas- phemer, nor liar, nor a thief. He sim ply spent his life and his time in enjoying himself.
 We are told that Lazarus was @ poor man and destitute He had few of the comforts of life. Yet he did not forget God. He did not neglect God because he had nothing. Is it wrong, therefore, that the rich man who had spent all his life for himself and his own pleasures should be condemned to | the torments of hell? Is it wrong that the poor man who was not ashamed to acknowledge his Lord dur | ing his life should be taken into the bosom of Abrahama
 Where can a man go who all through his life has administered to his own animal senses! Where should he goa Where should a man go who all through his life has served God, although he has not had any of the good things of lifea
 There is between all that is good and pure and right and virtuous and all tha is impure and unrighteous a gulf which is ever widening and can only be bridget over by the will of the unrighteous whe turn from evil and try to be saved througf Christ.
 The sermon was the third of the Lente, course arranged by the Episcopal clergy O this city. Others who will speak are:
 Rev. Henry Mottet, rector of the Church o the Holy Communion, New York city, Wednes day evening, March g.

A Famous New York Hotel

The fame of the Buckingham hotel, which towers above the majestic Cathe- dral on Fifth avenue, New York, is world wide. Its appointments are superb and it's location makes it most desirable for a days stay or @ weeks visit in the metropolis. It is just far enough re- moved from the hustle of the city to in- sure quiet, and while it is only stones throw from Central park, it is at the same time within ten minutes access of all the theaters and the shopping centers of the town, with elevated roads on either side within few minutes walk. The service, the cuisine and the thoroughness of the establishment in the matter of a guests comfort make the Buckingham one of the most delightful hostelries in New York, and the vital feature-the cost-is the greatest magnet of all.

A NEW INsTRUoTOR.

Physics wAll Be Taught ln the Sopho.
 more YeAr-As an Introduction te
 the Work ta Juaiee Year--NIr. l
 whitmcre Chosen Gnstructar- A
 Brilliant Career.
 Commencing on Thursday morning next the Yale sophomore elaee will have phys ics in place of Pliny and Horace. On ae- count of the eize of the classes it has been impossible to give az much instruction ia physics during the junior year as has been thought by the faculty desirable. To remedy this few lessons in elementary physics have been incorporated in the work of the sophomore class. The change will probably be permanent. The courses in physics will be so arranged in junior year that those who are interested in the subject will be able to take more advanced work than heretofore.
 To provide instruction in this subject Mir. John Whitmore, son of MT. Whitmore, formerly principal of the Hillhouse high school, has been selected.
 | MT. Whitmore graduated from Yale fore most in the class of '86. The next year he
 was principal of the high school at Hum | DOlut, OulO. 4ueu TUT tWo ycaiS ho ""o instructor in physics at the University of Minnesota at Minneapolis. There he had
 superior advantages for following his
 chosen subject and he gave great deal of his time to experiments in electricity. For
 the past three years he hes been pursuing
 post graduate work at Yale as Sloane fel- low He came here highly recommended
 by President Cyrus Northrop of the Uni
 versity of Minnesota. He was very popu-
 lar as an instructor there and his work was
 characterized by thoroughness and eff
 physics under Professor A. w. Wright and
 mathematics under Professors Newton and
 Gibbs.
 Prior to entering Yale he graduated
 from the high school in this city and ther
 studied for year in Mir. Kinney's schoo
 at Ithaca. He was a good all around mar in college and was very proficient in tn,
 ancient languages. To show his range, h.
 has studied the Oriental languages some
 what. He is twenty eight years of age, g
 hard student and a popular man. Not many years ago mechanics ant
 astronomy were not studied until thu completed at the end of the sophomor' year. Indeed, mechanics has been put il
 the freshman course for the past tw' years. The tendency has been to brinl mathematical subjects down into tn is possible partly, the faculty say E through condensation and partly in requir ing greater knowledge of mathematics fo entrance. The students say it is by in creasing the amount of work required , from them.
 , The final examinations in Horace vii be held on Wednesday, the 23d, at 10:30 g , m., and the examinations iu Pliny tn same day at 12 o'clock. The other wor of the sophomore class will go on as be ] fore.
