GERMAN FOLK-soNGs.
A Delightful Recital by Miss Villa Whit
 neY White.

A Delightful Recital by Miss Villa Whit ney White.
 The recital of German Folk-Songs, which was given at Harmonic hall last evening by Miss Villa Whitney White was very largely attended by refined and cultured audience and was a. most enjoyable occasion. The program rem dered by Miss White consisted of Volks- lieder from the fifteenth century to our time, which was arranged by Dr. Heinrich Reimann of Berlin. The authors of the first ten songs are un- known. They were as follows: Ringe, 1452; Minnelied 1460; Die Linde in Thal 1549; Lindelaub, 1549; Abschied von Inns bruck 1475; Pommersces Volkslied, 1860; Waechterlied, 1885; Schwaebisches Vollzlied, 1870; Der Hirsch, Spinner liedchen. The last ten numbers on the program showed the transition and the development from the more primitive and simple volkslied to the greater in tricacies of melody down to the time of Mozart, Schubert, Schumann, Hay den and Mendelssohn. The songs were as follows: Tanzlied, 1901; Hans Leo Hasler; Sagt, Wo Sind Die Veilchen Hin?, 17S2, J. A. P. Schulz; a, Die Send ung, b, Das Zeichen, 1765, F. H. Him. mel; Cute Ruh, 1910, P. von Winter; Staendchen by Mozart; My Mother Bids Me Bind My Hair, by Josef Hay den; Haidenroeslein, by Franz Schubert; Auf Fluegeln Des Gesanges, by Men delssohn; An Der Sonnenschein, by R. Schumann; Weigenlied by Johann Brahms.
 It was a rare treat to hear voice of such strength and beauty as Miss Whites The rendition of the entire program was we'll sustained through out and in a manner which drew forth the applause of the large audience at the close of nearly every number
 The exposition which Miss White gave of her subject as she proceeded made it easy for every one to grasp Ter meaning and to understand the place development of German song.
 Miss White is lady of most pleas ing personality, and the way she has of taking her audience with her into the real meaning of every song she sings, makes listening to her double pleasure.
 She was the recipient of several beau tiful bouquets of flowers from some of her admiring friends.
 Of Miss M. B. Dillingham;, Miss White has an aocompanist of rare ability. She has an elegance and deli cacy of execution, which gives great beauty to her playing.

that they did not consider the crossing more dangerous than any other cross ing in the city, and not nearly as dan gerous as the functions of State and Elm streets and State and Chapel streets.
 At the commencement of the hearing D. Cremin stated that the New Haven Street Railway company was like the French revolutionists, whose motto was "omnia rapiens ct nihil dens," which means to take everything and give nothing. He also said that s. Harrison Wagner in New York recently made the boast that the committee would not recommend the petition because he had the committee all right
 Attorney Wagner denied the latter statement and said that he had never said anything which could be construed in any such manner. When ID. Cremin was asked where he got his information on the subject he said that he was told so by William Clark. a. New York news paper man, and offered to bring Mr. Clark to this oity to prove his state ment and to give $100 to the two orphan asylums of the city if his statement was not proven when MT. Clark came.
 In executive session the committee voted to give the petitioners leave to withdraw.

FAIR HAVEN.

Two horses attached to a heavy wag. on belonging to George Bradley and driven by his man ran away yesterday morning on Grand avenue. In front of John Parkers bakery the wagon struck a hitching post, which was demolished, and the glass in a lamp-post just be- yond was shattered. The driver was thrown out on the pole and witnesses of the accident expected he would be killed, but in attempting to climb back on the seat the latter was upset, and the man was thrown to the ground, but was uninJured. The horses ram up North Quinnipiac street and were there stopped by William Meickle of Allyn5 market.

IT WAS A NARROW ESCAPE
THE EAST BOUND FLYER HAS 4
 CLOSE CALL AT KEW LONDON.

 It Got on the Wrong Track and Soon Found
 Itself in the Switch Yard-The Engineer
 Applied the Brakes But Was Unable to
 Prevent Slight Collision With switch-
 ing Engine.
 New London, March 20.--What might have been serious accident was avert ed tonight at Union station by sheer good luck. The Consolidated railroad train known as the east-bound flyer. due in this city at 6:10, got on to the wrong track and found It's way into the switch yard.
 The express was ahead of time and was running at rate somewhat slower than usual. As the train entered the yard here Its regular track had not been placed for it and the train went down a switching track.
 The engineer reversed his lever and applied the brakes, but was unable to prevent a collision with a switching en- zine. No one was hurt, but the pilot of the express engine was badly twist ed, while the breast and brake beam of the switcher were badly damaged. Had the train been running at its usual speed a serious accident would proba- bly, have occurred.

WITHOUT CONDITIONS.
Temporary Armistice Has Been Propos-
 ed by Japan.

A Temporary ATmistice Has Been Propos-
 ed by Japan.
 Washington, March 29-The follow ing was received this evening by the Japanese legation:
 "On the opening of the negotiations Chinese plenipotentiary proposed armis- tice, which Japanese government were willing to accept on certain conditions While this negotiation was going on the untoward event happened on the per- son of the Chinese plenipotentiary. His majesty, the emperor, having in view this unhappy occurrence com manded the Japanese plenipotentiaries to consent to temporary armistice with out conditions. This was communi- cated to the Chinese plenipotentiary.
 Minister Kurino says that the effect of the emperor's order will be the im- mediate cessation of aggressive hostili- ties and that the Japanese armies will make no further advance as long as the armistice lasts. Some fighting may occur if provoked by the Chinese, but the second step towards peace has been practically taken, the arrival of Lii Hung Chang and the satisfactory char acter of his plenipotentiary credentials having been the first.
 The minister is of the opinion that the. action of the emperor was influenced by the confidence his majesty reposed in the successful conclusion of the peace negotiations through the ultimate ac- ceptance by Ii Hung Chang of the terms stipulated by aJpan.
 'It was immediately after the close of the second session of the peace pIeni- potentiaries," said the minister, "that Lii Hung Chang was prostrated by a fanatic and up to that time nothing had been concerned but China's re- quest for an armistice pending the consideration of the terms of peace The proposition had been met by the | presentation of certain conditions from the Japanese plenipotentiaries. The | discussion of the terms of final peace | had not been entered upon The en- | peror's command of temporary armis- | tice is also a refutation of the idea | that Japan is disposed to humiliate | China or merely to acquire territory. Japan has gained the end of demon- strating Japanese importance in west ern affairs"
 Minister Kurino promptly notified Secretary Gresham of the armistice and it was made known to President Cleveland, who expressed his gratifica- tion.

Railroad Notes.

Local quotations of New York and New Haven stock have during the last ten days risen from about 19S to 200, prices, however. largely refecting New York and Boston quotations. Yester- day quite a batch of purchases were made. One report says: "The causes are pretty definitely ascertained to be the steady maintenance Of the increased earnings on through freight, together with the growing belief that the new debenture bill in the legislature means the issue of both stock and debentures A par to holders. The prevalent idea in banking circles here is that the new issues will be 25 per cent. on the amount of stock and debenture out and there is some official au- thority for the same view.

SECRETARY MORTON, of the depart
ment of agriculture, closes his annual
report with discussion of the question
of the future of the farms and farming
i'm the United States. According to his
figures the average value of farms by
the census of 1890 was $4,000 The
value of implements, domestic animals
and sundries will make total farm
plant of $4,000 for an average family of
six persons. Those farms have fed the
farmers aud their families and 10000
900 urban residents, besides supplying
S5,000,000 worth of products of foreign
consumption. In the presence of these
facts, the secretary asks: "How can
any one dare to assert that farming is
generally unremunerative and unsatis-
factory to those who intelligently fol-
low it?" The mortgage on farm values
does not exceed Is per cent, less in
cumbrance on the capital invested than
in any other line ofindustry. He fore
tells confidently steady increase in
the value. of farm lands as the popula-
ton of the country increases.

IT is not generally known that debts

says: 1.-THE important truth concerning
debts is that the poorer and more pure

est Debts abound where there is
wealth and industrial opportunity, and
because there is industrial opportunity.
