ing Tonight In New York.
The addresses by Bishop Henry O. Pot
ter, President Seth Low and Joseph II.
Choate in aid of the New York Exchange
for Woman's Work will be given at the
Madison Square Concert hall this evening
The addresses were to have been delivered
at the tinae of the sale at Sherry's several
weeks ago, bat were postponed on account
of bad weather. The Tribune says:
An attractive program has been arranged
and pleasant evening is promised to those
who attend, as we'll as information of the
meth DDS, needs and results of most wor-
thy charity. The music will consist of
songs by Plunket Greene and VIC
Bishop Potter will speak On the
''Suferings of the Educated Poor" Many
people, the managers of the exchange say,
do not realize the fact that distress exists
among the cultivated and educated, largely
perhaps because such people are too proud
to allow their wants to be known. The
ignorant and starving poor they know
about, because the condition of these
people is brought openly to their notice,
and they give aims to this class generously.
Bishop Potter will tell his hearers that there
are others in the community, gently reared,
to whom reverses have come. whose strug-
gle against poverty is hard and VINO de-
serve the aid of more fortunate people. It
is the purposeof the exchange to help these
people, while enabling them to preserve
their self-respect, by furnishing instruc-
ton in artistic or domestic handiwork and
by providing a market for their produc-
tions, concealing their identity whenever
desired.
At the last sale table was filed with
articles exhibited at the first sale of the
exchange, in 1878. The articles were
poorly made, and the art was of low de-
gree. The beautiful and artistic produe-
lions of the present contributors formed
strong contrast, and illustrated the edu-
eating influence of the exchange. Presi-
dent Low will make this feature the SUBJ
ject of his address.
Joseph q. Choate will tell of the needs
of the exchange for building. The rooms
small for the work, and there is no room
for the educational department, which is
to be enlarged and developed. Many arti-
oIes now fail to be sold merely because
there is no place to exhibit them properly.
At recent sale, where a favorable dis
play could be made, over $500 WAS re-
ceiyed. It Is desired to erect building
near the present rooms sufficiently COM
modious to afford showrooms as we'll as
clsss-rooms and offices. The estimated
cost is $500, 900. A portion has already
been subscribed. ~
1t is the object of this meeting to bring
the work before the people who have the
means to assist 1t. The tickets are So |
each, and boxes $25. A large number have |
been taken already.

There are very few reasons urged against
use of Hygeis ice, and the one which is
most often heard is perhaps the most alb
surd. This Is that Toe ia of no good for
cooling until it begins to melt. What bs-
comes of the Is or 20 degrees of chill which
the Hygeia ice must lose before it sheds a
drop of watera Just as much chill as it
loses, just SO much warmth must absorb
and the heat must come from whatever Is

THE sARsFIELD,s BALL.

ANotably Brilliant Success-ProbabIy
the Finest Ever Known in the His
tory of This Popular and Well
Known Military Organization -
Many Disting uished Guards From
All Parts of the State-Features of
the Affair.
The twenty ninth annual military recep-
lion of the Sarsfield Guard was held in the
Hyperion last evening, and was the most
successful social ever given by this popular
military company.
Company C's efforts to provide q swell
military reception were evidently appre-
ciated by the large number of people that
were present.
Some of the ladies costumes were elegant
and much grace and beauty were observed
in the throng that Is usual at public re-
ception.
The boxes were all filed with we'll known
| people, the arrangements relating thereto
having been very carefully and satisfactor-
lily attended to.
Many city officials were among the
| throng, The guards had many guests
| from out of town, and the affair was one
| of the noted social successes of the season.
| The theater decorations for the occasion
were very complete. The immense candle
labra which Illuminated the dancing floor
was decorated with running pine. The
| two lower boxes were richly orname ted
| with folds of American and Irish flags.
Between each box was hung banner of
red, white and blue silk. The upper boxes
were also draped with American flags in
fan fashion. Streamers Of red, white and
green were hung from the proseenium arch
to the top of the upper gallery. The lower
gallery trent was concealed with folds of
silk plush in green and yellow, while the
material for the upper gallery was of red
white and blue bunting. Potted plants IN
great profusion were arranged imme dtasely
In front of the boxes.
The dancing fcor, which extended from
the rear of the stage and completely GOV.
cred the parquet seats, was covered with
crash.
The costumes of the ladies were more
than usually beautiful and contracted witt
the glittering uniforms of the military ani
made fine picture long to be remem
bered.
Stationed in the first gallery was tn
Philharmonic orchestra of twenty piece
under the leadership of Professor Fichtl
and the music was one of the most enjoya
BILE features of the reception.
