THOSE The struggle in Brazil
 FIGHTING has attracted worldwide
 BRAzILIANs. attention, although at present it's exact condition of the fight would be hard to state. The Springfield Republican, whose foreign despatches always can be relied upon, has this to say of the situation: The daily reports from Brazil seem to be doctored by the side through whose hands they pass be- fore reaching the wires. The only thing which seems settled is that neither Mello nor Piexoto has gained any inn portant advantage of late, and that both are about as well able to continue the struggle as they have been for some months. Nor do the real motives of the controversy grow much palmer as it goes on. Peixoto still claims that he is fighting to maintain constitutional gov ernment, while concededly violating the constitution by refusing to order an election of his successor; and Mello and Da Cana are as firm in their protesta- tions that they alone represent the peo- pie who are oppressed by dictator. It looks as though the struggle had very little of patriotism in it on either side, and that Brazil will be equally unfortu- nate whichever of the two contestants for power wins. Neither seems to be an ardent supporter of the republic, save as basis for dictatorship. l

MEETING PULPIT ENGAGEMENTS

The following from the Christian Ad- vocate concerning Dr Merwin will inter- est many: Rev J. B. Merwin, once pre- siding elder of the New York East con- ference, performed, several years ago, while in the pastoral work, an "itinerant feat'' which has seldom, if ever, been paralleled. After attending the Sing Sing camp-meeting on a certain Saturday af- ternoon, he started at 4.30 o'clock p. m., for his Sabbath work (morning and after noon) in eastern Long Island, the whole involving journey of over 124 miles and two sermons. Driving hastily to New Rochelle, he hoped to go by the evening steamer across the Sound. On reaching the wharf in time, he was met with the unwelcome announcement that the steam CT would not land, and the alternative was presented of continuing the journey by carriage or disappointing the congre-
 
 gation on the Sabbath. The conclusion was quickly made, to meet, if possible, the appointments. The horse was hasti- ly rubbed down, and the ride renewed. The 9Oth mile was reached by sunrise. Then followed change of horses and renewal of the ride. The thing was done! journeyed 124 miles. By private carriage 107 on foot, five on horseback, l2; total, PA and preached twice! What pastor, presiding elder, or bishop has ever beat en that? Does not that beat the ''fath- ers?''

THE READING ROOM A SUCCESS.
 The reading room, although only three weeks old, has already captured the hearts of those for whom it was intend ed. Every evening sees it filled with young men, who thoroughly enjoy a good game of chess, checkers or crokin- ole. One rather unexpected failure be- gins to be realized, the room is scarcely large enough to accommodate comfort ably both players and readers on some evenings. Another unexpected phase the management has had to meet; orig inally intended for men only, the room was scarcely opened before the gentler sex began to express their indignation at being shut out. In response to de- mand from them, it has been decided to open the rooms afternoons from ? to for ladies.

THE "HARD TIMES MASQUERADE BALL
 A GREAT SUCCESS.

The event of the season in Bethel's social circle took place here, last Friday night, when a merry party of masquer- aders took possession of Nichols opera house and tripped the light fantastic toe from 9 o'clock until the'' wee small hours
 of Saturday morning. The ''Hard Times'' masquerade ball had been the principal topic of conversation with the pleasure lovers here for weeks before the arrival of the date set for it, and it has continued to be a theme of absorb
 ing interest ever since it took place. The only drawback to the complete suc- cess of the affair was the want of space furnished by the opera house for the unprecedented number of dancers who thronged the ball room, over 100 couples taking part in the grand march. This was formed at 9 30 o'clock and led by MT and Mrs A. J. Stone. Many unique and grotesque costumes were worn, while number of tasty and or namental ones were also shown. Mrs A. J. Saxton appeared as Night" her costume being a black stuff dress | spangled with gilt stars. Mrs w. Noxon presented pleasing contrast as "Morn- ing" her costume being white, sprinkled with silver stars. Miss Mamie Reed as "dancing girl" and a number of other pretty costumes were noticeable among the dancers. The male element inclined to the ludicrous in their dress, but a few displayed good taste and a proper re- gard for fitness of things by wearing costumes of pleasing design. Among those were Messrs Benny Short, Fred. erick Barnum and Frederick Meyers, as jockeys, their costumes being composed of white duck riding brooches, with rec satin jacket and waistcoat, Messrs Patrick Gavin and J. McCorkle as Span ish cavaliers, while Charley Van Ripel made veritable Methodist minister o1 Eye olden time.'' The Eureka hook 6 ladder company is to be congratu
 lated on the success of it's annual ball The members of the company express themselves as appropriately jubilant There were firemen present from Dan bury, Westport and Norwalk. The Eureka orchestra with full number O
 pieces furnished music for the occasion
