With Appropriate Exercises.
Appropriate ceremonies marked the forty
second anniversary of the organization of
the local branch of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association, celebrated yesterday at
the association building. General Secretary
James f. Pugh was in charge of the cele-
bration, and he was assisted by Mr., Zal-
mon Richards, the first president of the
association, who made the opening prayer;
Mr. l.. Cabeil Williamson, now president,
who also uttered a prayer, and Rev. j. u.
Butler, who delivered the anniversary ad-
dress.

the words "Y. II. c. A was given by Cen
eral Secretary Pugh in the Congregational
Church Among other things Mr.. Pugh
stated that there are now 5,5lO associations
in existence in forty-oEe countries, the
membership aggregating 100000. There are
1441 associations with a membership of
24i 900 in North America, he said, and S.
25o,;SoO are spent every year in current ex-
penses. After discussing the physical, the
mental the social and the spiritual work
of the local association, Mr.. Pugh urged
the necessity of a large equipment for
Washington, and concluded his address
with an appeal for assistance to make the
local Y. NJ. c. A. worthy of the city, eX-
pressing the hope that the time will Come
when the association will own a building
provided with accommodations for fully
three thousand members, instead of for
only one-third that number, as is the case
at present. The exercises were brought to
a close by Rev. DIR. Newman, who, in a
brief talk, heartily indorsed all that Mr.
Pugh mad said, and called attention to the
association as factor i'll bringing young
men into the church.

initiation fee for all lodges in this juris-
diction occupied the attention Of the body
for an hour, and developed a decided op-
position on the part Of the subordinate
lodges to any change in the present Gus
tom, which permits each lodge to make
any rate it chooses. The question had not
been settled at II o'clock, when a recess
was taken until next Saturday evening at
the same place.
There a large number of committees
yet to report, and it is quite likely that the
session may be prolonged for several even
ings. The work of the Anti-Saloon League
will come up for consideration, and the
committee on legislation is expected to
bring forth some plans for fighting the
liquor traffic which will be presented to
Congress at the next session in December.
Altogether, the session promises to be an
unusually important one for the cause of

CHARGED WITH MURDER.
Martin Dalton Taken to Providence to
He Tried for His Life.

re Ir1Cu f1IS LAIc.
Martin Dalton, a young man who for
merry lived in Providence r. l., and who
is the son of a wealthy Massachusetts man,
PASSED through here yesterday in charge of
an officer. He had been arrested at At
lanta. Ga, and was being returned, in
charge of Chief Parker of the Providence
detective corps, to answer a charge of
murder, alleged to have been committed by
him three years ago. AT that time a
wealthy resident of Providence named An
thoEy Hasweli was murdered for his
money, and since then the prisoner has
been shadowed from place to place in this
and other. countries, and was finally cap
tured in Atlanta, where he was managing
pugilistic exhibition. There was a con-
troVersy about the arrest, because of the
fact that a reward of $500 had been offered
for mis- arrest, and rival officers in Atlanta
will claim the reward. Since the murder
of Anthony Haswell it is charged that
Dalton was implicated in two other homi-
cides, one the killing of a Chinaman in
Arizona. While in this city yesterday the
prisoner was locked up at the first police
station.
