The Picture Commtttee's Work-Pro-
 lessor Jepson-Prom Committees
 Report ordeal Before the school
 Committee To-Day by the Fourteen
 Essayists.
 The picture committee appointed by the class of '94, Fl. H. s., for the purpose of purchasing pictures to be presented to the school and to Professor Jepson, for his services, will be given . sufficient appro- priation at the next meeting of the class. Another time the class of '94 will deviste from the custom of former classes, namely: instesd of presenting pictures, as hereto fore, several handsome statuettes will be left in the school as . mark of the course of the class. Quite sum will be expended and irst-class articles will be obtained, as the class does not wish to do anything in s half hearted way.
 At recent meeting the promenade com mittse handed in it's report, which was ac. cepted. The committee returned about $5( to the treasury of the class. This is an ex csllsnt indication that the promenade of '94 was complete success.
 To-day those fourteen scholars who hav'
 essays will speak before the committee SC footed for the purpose, and the final selec tdon of seveu will then be made. The remaining rehearsals of the gradua tion music will occur at Harmonic hail which was some time ago engaged for tha purpose.

 GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
 Frank Cushman's minstrels, now play ing at the Grand, give a capital entertain ment and continue to bs well patronized. It fs pronounced one of the bast minstrel shows which has beea in New Haven for @ long time. The songs and choruses are new and unusually good. The audience is kept in good humor by the numerous hits and ssll,es of Dan Collysr, John Hart, George Graham, George Blakely and Frank Cushman
 The song, "The Fatal Wedlock,n makes great hit and draws rounds of applause. The first part concludes with extremely funny limitations of an Irishman, a Ger man aud a negro by Frank Cushman. The whole entertainment is full of interest and attraction and the show we'll merits a big patronage. There will be a matinee this afternoon followed by the resulsr per formance in the evening, This will be the last night. Before each performance the minstrel band will give an open air con- cert on the veranda of the Grand opera house. The matinee performance opens at o'clock. Secure seats early.
 A highly entertaining show comes the last three evenings of this week, which is most pleasing with it's humorous features. It is 'Peck's Bad Boy" and has been ex- tremely we'll received elsewhere. A mati- nee will be given Saturday afternoon.
 PoLIs WONDERLAND THEATKR.
 Abstter pleased audience never dispersed from Wonderland than that of yesterday. The performance this week is the best in many respects that Manager Pon has ever given. Every act on the bill is excellent and the applause Is almost continuous. The McNulty sisters, Ethel Brougham and Billy Carter all made great hits. John Till with his marionettes caused great laughter. and the act of Rowe and Rentz sent everyone home in good humor.

3rd. Parents are apt to blame the
teachers If their children are not doing
good work even though the fault lies
nearer the home.
4th. Because We believe that the
tendency of many such gatherings is
degrading rather than elevating, and
that the innocence of childhood is
rapidly replaced by that which is less
desirable. We believe that many a
parent has had occasion to regret hav-
ing given so little thought and atten-
tion to these things.
Having the good of the schools and
of each individual pupil at heart we
would most earnestly urge upon the
parents to give their attention to
these things and would suggest that
they would consult each other, and
together formulate some plan of ac-
tion so that the coming winter term
may be for your children all that
you could desire. Respectfully,

To the Patrons of the City Schools.

The close of term of school is a
lifting time to take retrospective
glance at the past. In this article we
will call attention mainly to one line
of thought, but may follow with 9TH
ers later on.
The term just closed show the larg-
est attendance in the history of the
schools; 416 is the enrolment, being
40 more than that of any previous
term.
The most of the time has been
especially marked for the interest and
generally pleasing spirit manifested
by all. Within few weeks, however,
there has been noticeable restles, I'M
seteled, and listless spirit on the part
of a number. The cause has not been
difficult to ascertain. The skating
rink, parties, balls and other evening
attractions have claimed too much Of
the time and thought Of many Of the
young people.
Parents of BrOokings if you would
have your children make success of
their studies it is absolutely necessary
that their attention be not too much
divided between their studies and
their pleasures. No young person can
regularly attend even one, much less
more, pleasure gatherings a week and
do as good work as he otherwise might.
We have been asked by parents why
we object to their children going to
parties if they are always regular in
their attendance at school. We
object:
lst. Because none who are Of
proper age to 60 out in company can
leard their lessons as they ought with
out much home study.
End. Because the incidents of the
party become the all absorbing topic
of thought and conversation for sew
eral days afterwards, not to mention
the planning for it. While thus occu-
pied, concentrated thought on the
lessons becomes impossible.

The Hart Case.

The Press, last week, under
the title of Circuit Court" seems to
concentrate its report Of the proceed
ing to a single case-the Hart divorce
case-notwithstanding the fact that
this case was the last one tried and
there were many other equally i'm
pOrtant cases tried this term. Fur
thermore, it goes into minute details
much more so than is usual in report
ing court proceedings, and instead of
giving an accurate report, the article
from beginning to end is replete with
innuendOes and vindictiveness against
the plaintiff, Mr.. Hart. In fact, no
person can read ten lines of it with
out being thoroughly impressed with
the fact that instead of it's being
simple account of the trial, the article
referred to is inspired by personal vim
dictiveness, and written from person
al motives. While we do not believe
in trying law suits through the news
papers, still our sense of justice and
fair treatment demands that some Of
the facts in this case be made known.
Wehave taken the pains to examine
some of the depostions, and we see
that the Press article distorts the tes-
timony of Mr.. Hart's witnesses to
show all of its faults and more, but
none of its virtues. And not being
content with attacking and belittling
the testimony of the now living wit
nesses, it's inhumanity attacks the
character of lady now deceased-the
mother Of Mr.. Hart, whose death
was reported in the previous issue of
the Press-by disrespectfully saying
that she was "the mother of G. f.
Hart, a member Of the divorce colony"
This article says that her testimony
was characteristic of the convention
al mOther-in-law." The facts are,
that her evidence is the very exempli-
tication of candor and honesty, and
shows her character and disposition
to have been of the most generous.
forgiving and amiable, who was fire.
quently subjected to abuse and humil-
iation by Mrs. Hart, without cause or
reason. Her evidence bears the stamp
of candor and honesty, and one can
not help being thoroughly impressed
by it, and if even one half or one
tenth of what witnesses who testified
for Mr., Hart be true, it would require
something more than a saint to live
with his wife. His other witnesses
testimony fully corroborates his own,
and makes very strong case.
Mr.. Hart on the witness stand was
candid and impressive ia his manner.

WHAT DOES 1T MEAN ?
Fact or Fiction About Two Great Fair
Awards.


Awards.
A newspaper paragraph denounces
as false" the claim of a baking pow
der company to award at the Worlds
Fair. Whom can it mean?
Certainly not DR.. Prices. Why :?
Because, as the record show, DR.. Price
exhibited, competed and received the
highest award, both as Chicago and
the Chicago Midwinter FAIR. The
award in California included gold
medal. The official examiners pro-
nounced 1t the strongest, the purest,
the most wholesome and efficient Of
all the baking powders. It's title to
confidence is unquestioned.
Can it be the manufacturers of a
New York powder, fictitiously labeled
absolutely pure" who are making
false" claims? That would be
strange indeed, inasmuch as they
were not even considered in the
awards.
Was it ammonia in the New York
powder that prevented its maker from
competing? If not, what?

lie gave his testimony in a plain
straightforward manner - free from
concealment-admitting he was not a
model, but only an ordinary man, and
related the history of his domestic
troubles in detail, end how he had
been driven from his business where
he had served nineteen years, by the
persecution of his wife, who also poi
soned the minds of his children
against him, which latter act caused
him more pain than all the rest COM
bined. We have known him person
ally for some time past and have be-
come convinced that he is steady,
temperate, honest man, and that he
has not lived in lease, luxury and
dissipation" while here, as the fair
defendant swears in one of her aff1-
daVits. Perhaps we are able to Judge
OF his characteristics from a more i'm
partial standpoint than Bro. Allen,
because we are not angry at his hav-
ing ceased renting room from us.
We have no desire to disparage the
character Of the fair defendant, but
the general impression given by her
testimony was that she has been stu
diously attempting to obtain evidence
in every conceivable manner for years
to use against her husband. Her de-
meanor on the stand showed her
irascible temper frequently. She ad
mitted that she brought suit in New
York, so that she could live separate
from her husband, and she is opposing
this case for divorce, not because she
wants to live with her husband but
because she wants alimony.
We shall attempt to give our read
ers the balance OF the evidence in
this case and perhaps brief synopsis
of what has already been given, but
we shall endeavor to give both sides
of it, and not color or distort it, as we
have no individual spite or grudge to
vent in the matter.

but he put in his annual appearance
in spite Of the discouraging circum-
stances.
The Christmas tree provided for the
children of the Baptist Sunday school
was of an unusual. variety in these
temperate latitudes. 1t grew snow
balls only, which looked very beauti-
full as they flashed and sparkled in the
Christmas lights, and must have very
pleasantly reminded Santa Claus of
his far away northern home: but the
inside of those snowballs-ah, that
was the altogether delightful part |.
A huge snOw-drift nearly hid the "jolly
driver and prancing steeds" from
view, but his voice had the old.
CHEEKY ring, as he proceeded to dis
tribute the contents of his sleigh
among the eager boys and girls. Hard
times had evidently not affected his
resources. The short program which
preceded the distribution was quite
creditable to the young participants.
The M. K. Sunday school had post
office in regulation style, call for
package" being introduced and strict
ly enforced. Santa Claus appeared
to cheer the little folks.
The Presbyterian Sunday school had
the regulation tree, and a pleasing
program of exercises.
At the Lutheran church the regu-
lar Christmas exercises were con-
Quoted Christmas Eve and Christmas
day.
Everybody seemed to have arranged
to celebrate Christmas in quiet man
ner. There were gatherings of fam
lilies, relatives and friends. Rich din
ners and teas were INDUCED in pretty
generally. Some of the young people
formed parties and went skating on
the Sioux river, others preferred the
roller rink which was open during the
day and evening.
At 3 O'Clock the First Regt. band and
portion of the bicycle club made
parade about the city, The band in
vaded the hotels and new Masonic
temple. At the latter place force
of men were busy preparing for the
opening festival held Thurday. The
music by the band enlivened the scene
on the streets, and brought out many
of the citizens.
