the club arose, and in @ short and witty address introduced the speaker of the evening, Rev. Dr. MacArthur, pastor of the Calvary Baptist church, New York. who epoke on Aggressive Christian Work" as follows:
 "Mr. Chairman and Good Friends-I have never had the opportunity of address ing Baptist audience in New Haven be- fore. The subject agreed upon between Dean Waylsnd and myself was "Aggres sive Christian Work" think there is 8 great deal of such work being done. Ism an optimist and not @ psssimist. l think bad We are apt to depreciate the past and present and glorify and ideslize the future
 "In addition to this, however, we need much aggressive Christian work. I am rather glad that we have had hard times lately. It has in @ degree stopped the great tidal wave of immigration that has bsen swsrming in upon us from every country under heaven. Just think, Italy alone sent us 69 900 of whom 30. 900 could neither read nor write. I wish Satolli would stay at home and teach his com patriots and coreligionists how to read and write and when he has done that he can come over here and tell us how to conduct our public schools. tell you the time Is coming when both the great parties will have to put plank in their platforms to rsstist this great tidal wave. In New York we have all kinds of heathen. Swine is sold there to sacrifice in Chinese joss houses. And 30 think we should try and Christisnizs these people at the same time that we ex- tend to them the hand of republication. It seems to me that there is as pressing missionary work to be done right at home as there is abroad.
 "We are building the temple of the Lord here on earth. Slowly but surely the structure is rising up through the years and the centuries. Every stone is being fitted into it's place. And 1t behooves willing to do each the work allotted to him" {"
 Short speeches were then made by Rev. J. R. Stubbert of New London, Superin- tendent s. 0. Preston, Rev. J. Fl. Mason, Rev. E. M. Potest, Rev. Nr. Elder, pastor of Hope Baptist church, and Rev P. s. Evans. All of them spoke urging all who could to contribute to the support of the Dixvell avenue Baptist mission, which is meeting felt need in that neighborhood. About $1 100 Is needed to put the church building in good repair and to place the mi. 1on on a self-supporting basis.
 At the business session the following officers were reelected; President, Dean Francis Wayland; vice president, Pierce N. Wslcb; secretary, O. N. Parker, treasurer, O. J.

picked student.
In the Massachusetts, institute OF
technology the students of architec-
ture have to solve som every abstruse
problems in descriptive and analytical
geometry IN connection with architec-
tural forms; and the shades and shad-
ows cast by certain ring at the bot
tom of column called the torus, and
the angles and intersections made by
supposititious sections of this ring, are
exceedingly perplexing to new stu
dents.
One day a student came to another
student, young lady, who had a rep
utation for knowing about these
things, and confessed his inability to
understand the first principle of a GER
tain problem.
"Oh, i. is easy enough" said the
young lady. ''All you have to do is to
consider the torus doughnut, which
you bite so and so, and you will see
what the sections are"
The young man went away, reflect
lively, and next day came back, looking
very pale and miserable.
''Why, what's the natter" exclaimed
the young lady student.

Eve eaten a whole dozen of dough

point of order on the question Of but one

was approved, and on a cali of yeas and
nays the previous question was ordered

either side.
After speech by Mr.. Reed regarding
the speakers ruling yesterday Mr. Reeds
motion TO amend the journal was voted
down. Mr.. Reeds motion to adjourn Was
decided out of order, aud the speaker de-
ciined to entertain an appeal, and again

The next episode was the overriding Of

having made the contested election cases

TROUBLE IN SAMOA.
Natives Rebel Against the Action Of the
Ruling Authorities.

AUCKLAND, n. u, March 30-TCopy-
righted 1894 by the Associated Press l.
The steamship Alameda, from Samoa,
brings news of most serious outbreak in
those islands, which would seem to indi-
cate that the United States. Great Britain
and Germany will be called upon to take
prompt action.
Chief Justice Ide is charged with finiug
ana throwing into Jail chiefs of rival
faction in Samoa and with compelling
them 10 work on roads like coLvicts of the
lowest order. The natives protested
strongly and eventually broke out into an
armed rebellion. Affairs assumed such a
aspect that the chief justice was COM
PEELED to take steps to disarm the natives,
and the latter made preparations to resist
this so-called interference with their
rights,
Reigning Sovereign King Malietoa re-
manned loyal to chief justice, for upon
being called upon To DO so, he promptly
sent strong force OF Samoan warriors to
attack the rebels. Several sharp eucoun-
tiers between King Malietoa's warriors aud
natives. commanded by rebellious chiefs,
followed. During the engagements thirty
men were killed aud about fifty injured.
Malietoa's men are reported victorious in
this conflict, but natives are now said to
be taking steps for general uprising.
Chief Justice Ide is the American rep
resenrative and it, is believed here that
when the whole affair is thoroughly sifted
il will be found his action was not as Sc
we're as his enemies assert.
WASHINGTON, March 30.-The uprising
IN Samoa creates no surprise at the state
department. As 1t was expected because of
the peculiar entauglements growing ont
of the obligations assumed by the differ
ent governments IN connection with the
Samoan affairs. It is expected that the
complications may cause serious trouble.
Senator Morgan said tonight that he
had always regarded the arrangement as a
mischievous one and certain to produce
jealousy and contention. He declined TO
suggest the proper course for the United
States to pursue.

UGLY ONES PREDOMINANT.
A Sculptor Says Unpleasant Things About
WOmeu's Arms

A Sculptor says Unpleasant Things About
Women's Arms.
To make one perfect pair Of arms for
his Aphrodite, Mr. George Wade, the
English sculptor, had five models, and
he selected the best points in the arms
of each to make his composite. He
knows some discouraging things about
women's arms, things that may make
the young person who has serenely I'M
covered hers to the gaze of the multi
tude wonder If she was wise after all.
He stakes his artistic reputation on the
statement that it is most difficult to
find a woman with merely good arms,
to say nothing Of beautiful ones
at is in the wrist mainly" he says,
''that we have difficulty when we are
looking for perfection. In most
women's arms the bone is too couspic-
uous at the wrist and elbow But n
well-covered arm is not necessarily a
well-shaped one. There are many
points to be taken into consideration,
which may be summed up as follows:
The arm should be fully two heads
long from its insertion at the shoulder
to the wrist. The upper arm large
and round; dimpled elbow; the fore.
arm not too fat; the whole diminish
ing in long, graceful curves TO a we'll
rounded wrist"
Then Mr.. Wade goes on 10 say that
the possession of pretty face by no
means implies the possession of pretty
arms, but that generally the reverse is
true, and plain women have the mos,
ravishing arms He adds unkindly
that workingwomen have much more
gracefully rounded arms than their
idle sisters in society. The reason. OF
course, Is more daily exercise And
one cannot hope to attain lovely arm.
by spasmodic devotion TO athletics.
II is the constant, gentle household
sort Of exercise which gives woman
arms fit TO be modelled for a Hebe.
But violent athletics only develop the
muscles, and at the suggestion OF

Wade holds up bis hands in horror
The slightest suspicion Of muscle. he
says, "spoils all the beautiful curves
