AT WARNER HALL


Tomorrow AfternoOn-The Gene-
 vieve Stebbins Entertainment,
 Genevisvs Stebbins' repertoire includes
 three biblical pantomimes. At the Art
 Students' association in Boston the Sstur-
 day following her appearance here she
 gives the story of "Miriam, the Prophet
 ess." She personates in pantomime. It
 is quite different from acting. Her won
 derfully trained body expresses every
 shade of emotion and every attribute of
 character as she wills. At the New Haven
 performance tomorrow afternoon at War ner hall she will present the last act of
 "Mirism," which includes the flight, pur-
 suit and deliveranoe of Israel and Miriam's
 dance of triumph before the Lord. For
 this she is appropriately dressed as He. brew maiden seeking the Lord and inspired by Jehovah with . message for his people. It Is the perfection of personation.
 Glad in simple Greek costume she will represent series of classical statues. Her Illustrations of antique art are quite differ ens from the ordinary statue poses. They are an intellectual delight and constitute one continuous series of beautiful dissolv- ing views produced by the human form. The expression work of Mrs. Stebblns Is original and unique. In this field of art she stands without rival. By special ra- quest her New Haven program will include the well known hymn "Nearer, My God to Thee." This hymn will not be sung, it will be pantomimed, showing as nothing ever before has shown the marvellous power of tts human form for religious ex pression. The editor of the Church U nion says, referring to Mrs. Ssebbins: "Every man, woman and child would be mad : better and happier for life were they to have the opportunity of enjoying her sx- hibition of the God given talent and the wonderful perfection attained by the train ing of the same.

NEW YORK, Feb 15.-Oa transactions of 200 shares American Sugar to-day broke from s11S to 77z407sss. The decline was brought about by lquidations caused by reports from Washington that the senate sub-com mittee will recommend the adoption of the sugar sche dule as passed by ths house and thus admit both raw and refined sugar free of duty. A rush to sell resulted The common stock scored . net loss of 31k and the preferred 2I1.

When Mayor Hop kIns vetoed the measure last night the short in terest had not been covered. Related bears rushed In to get back their contracts this morn ing only to find that there was very little stock offering at going quotations, consequently the price was advanced 2H to s.

KNIGHTS OF COLUmBUs.
No Convention Held Yesterday-
 Sufficient Number of Councils Nc

No Convention Held Yesterday-A Sufficient Number of Councils Not Yet Applied.
 No convention of tue Knights of Colum-
 bus was held yesterday, which was the time set for the investigation of the matter come sted with the increase of the salaries of the high officials and other matters not agreeable to some councils. General Secretary Daniel Colwell says that sufficient number of councils have not yet asked for convention. There are
 in all eighty aix councils, and 1t is neces- eary for two-thirds of the entire organizs- tion to ask for convention, to secure one, and near that number have not up to
 this time applied.
 The matter of holding tho convention is
 in the hands of committee, of which
 Thomas Coffey of this city is chairman.
 Ar. Coffey is at present laid up with the grip, and nothing will be done further
 about the matter until he gets out again. Those who want the convention say they
 can find no law requiring two-thirds vote
 to call convention.
 The matter is in abeysnce at present, but
 the committee will probably bring 1t to the
 attention of the board of directors as soon
 ss MT. Cofsy recovsrs.
 The matter. however, will in all proba- bility culminate next month. The contention now Is to have delegate from each of the councils that have s!gni- fed their desire for a convention meet either here or in Hartford and the supreme officers will be requested to come before tham fk fa Rfatad that aevara1 1eaHiur and interesting questions will hs put to Supreme Knight John J. Phelan, Secretary Colwell and Physician Tracy. The questions of most importance, 1t is said, which will bs put to Nr. Phelsn is: Why was John J. Kefrigan of this city ad- mitted to the supreme council while not a member of tho ordera Nr. Kerrigan was formerly member but he left the order, and had not been reinstated at tho time of his appointment to the supreme council by Nr. Phelan and the others on the board. Secretary Colwell will be asked to give . detailed account of the expenditures of the order.
 Physician Tracy will bs asked to explain fees that he has collected. All of these matters doubtless are capa-
 ble of satisf actory explanation by the off,
 claim anything to the contrary. But, they
 say, the future of the order depends large.
 ly on how satisfactorily the questions are
 answered.
 In the event of the petitioners not being
 satisfied the Hartford councils, 1t is said,
 will work to obtain new charter at the
 next session of the general assembly. And
 in any case there Is some talk of revising
 the charter.

A Patriotic Work


 The Manchester, N. H., Press club Is making strong patriotic effort to secure an equestrian statue of General John Stark for the beautiful park laid out by that city about the burial place of that grand old hero of the battle of Bennington and named Stark park in his honor. As the park is laid upon land forming a portion of the homestead of General Stark the location is most appropriate for such . statue. The United States senate has already passed bill, as introduced by Senator Gallinger, making all appropriation of $40 ,0O0 for such statue. The present special object of the local press club is to urge the same measure through the houee of representatives. Tine press club mem- bership practically covers the entire news. paper interests of that city of 5O,00O in- ! habitants, and with its honorary associates among the leading men of the city is body | which may well speak the sentiments of the place on so important g subject.
 That General Stark of ali the heroes of the revolution is the one next to be fitting ly remembered by the American people and their government is not doubted. That the recognition propok cd by the leading citizens of New Hampshire and urged by the Manchester Press club Is the one above all others appropriate also goes without question. The statue Is to be placed where It can bs seen by hundreds of thousands down the railroad leading through the Merrimack valley to the White Mountains and lake resorts, and within the limits of tho growing city of Manchester. The city has liberally improved the large tract of land for Stark park, thus preparing a grand and picturesque setting for the re- produced form of the military hero of ear- Her history. The whole idea Is one of magnificent, patriotic conception and does credit to the state and the country which General Stark honored in these revolu- tionary struggles. The press club is we'll engaged in a service to the public that will not be forgotten whether 1t be successful or otherwise.
 Besides all this evidence before congress conveyed by circulars, the Manchester board of trade and the New Hampshire board of trade have commended the move ment. The independent continental com mand known as the Amoskeag Veterans is | also heart and soul in the movement. It was the Veterans who in June, 1893, dedi- cated Stark park. with the assistance of the Worcester, Mase., Continentals and the Putnam Phalanx of Hartford, Conn.
 But, more than all these should congress consider the great debt patriotic people owes to such man as Stark, and bear al- ways in mind that the presence of such statues is more potent than any other means in keeping alive the same spirit of general this particular statue is solicited Cor,
