4 TRIP TO PAWSONPARK.
Beautiful Sunday Resort-The Bran ford Military Bands Fine Program-A Picturesuue Scene.

Beautiful Sunday Resort-The Bran
 ford Military Bands Fine Program-A
 Picturesque Scene.
 When the steamer Margaret left her pier at Belle dock yesterday after noon she had on board a large crowd of excursionists chiefly bound for Paw
 son Park. Both decks were filled. It is a beautiful sail and the beauty of the scene along the shore is indescrib- ably fine. The day was all that could be desired and just enough breeze was blowing to make seat on the upper deck pleasant, with no fear of having a straw hat blown away.
 At the park the Branford Military band was stationed in the pavilion and played the following program: PART I. l Star Spangled Banner.
 l March-From Tabasco COG. Chadwick Overture-Bas Blue ............. Pettee | Fantasie on My Old Kentucky Home ....................... .Dalby
 The Dance of the Flower Girl... ..................... Sherman The Band Played On. .......... Beyer PART II.
 March h-Honeymoon ..........G. Rosey I Medley-Overture Dewitt
 Song-I Don't Want to Play in Your Yard ..................... Beyer Old Hundred.
 l This band deserves great credit for the fine concerts which 1t is giving, and its music is as pleasing as is that I of bands which are much more widely l known. It consists of twenty five
 pieces, and every man seems to have
 his part to perfection, making a most l harmonious whole.
 l During the music yesterday nearly l everyone at the park crowded around l the pavilion, but between the pieces many strolled about viewing the beau 1 ties of this pretty little resort The view from the bluff along the southern shore is delightful, while the huge
 rocks and fine groves add an exquisite touch to the scene.
 At o'clock last evening the Mar. l garet started back to New Haven or 1 the return trip, and as she left hel moorings, the band was stationed or the high rocks back of the landing | while on the bluff were standing groups
 watching the departing boat. In the west the sun was just sinking behind the hills and tinged the water a golder
 hue, the beauty of the scene being en
 hanced by the numerous sailboats ant
 naphtha launches darting about tn, bay.
 Rarely is more picturesque seen, l to be found and 1t can be truthful, said that nowhere in the vicinity O New Haven can a Sunday afternoon be spent in such pleasure and quie enjoyment as at Pawson Park.

1.-THE QUEEN OF TABLE WATERS"
Received the HIGHEST AWARD at the WORLDS FAIR, and at the ANTWERP EXHIBITION.
Entertainments. GRAND OPERA HOUSE.


 It is very seldom that special trains are chartered to convey theatrical com panies to New Haven, but in engaging the Kilanyi troupe for the Grand opera house season this week G. B. Bunnell was compelled to charter sleeper and two baggage cars from Milwaukee, Wis. in order that the troupe might reach New Haven in time for to-night's performance.
 The marvellous Elliot family, en- gagged by Manager Bunnell for the Grand, this week, although only seven in number, form a complete show in themselves, and present a diversified entertainment of an intensely interest ing and remarkable nature. Two of the younger Elliotts are mirth provok- CTS and laugh makers of high degree. Their grotesque clown act, hat spin ming, hat throwing and acrobatic an tics are excruciatingly comical, as well as superlatively sensational. This bit of burlesque concludes with marvellous light and heavy balancing, and jugglery of the high order of merit. A few of the many instruments em- ployed by the Elliot's who appear to- night in connection with the Kilanyi troupe, are: Violins, violas, mandolins mandolas, guitars, pipe-ophones, sleigh bells, Swiss hand bells, orchestra bells staff bells, new model COW bells, organ pipes, xylophones, metal tubes, musical goblets, musical glasses, musical bot. ties, saxophcnes and double bass horns snare and bass drums and a score oi instruments especially designed fol them.
 In addition to the above strong bill MT. Bunnell has completed an engage | ment with Senorita Eloina, the aeria | queen, who stands to-day without 2 | rival on the trapeze and flying rings Herr Edourd won Kilanyis living pic lures will be presented. The list is a. l follows:
 | Series I: First Love- H. Koch; Le | Cygal, Schneider; Cupid and Butterfly Bougureau; Nydia, Bodenhausen; NJ l and Jack, Pigelheim; Fromthe Noun tains, H. Dahl; The Wave, P Dupuis He Kissed Me, E.

THE TOBACCO MEN,s VAR.
Royal Battle Between Cigarettes an,
 Plugs.

Plugs.
 Richmond, Va, Aug. 25.-As this is the home of the Allen & Ginter branch of the American Tobacco company and of the P. H. Mayo company, which is in the combine of plug men to fight the trust, the St. Louis meeting of plug men has been the absorbing topic of talk in tobacco circles Inquiry of sev- eral of the leading tobacco men brought forth the opinion that the ex-plug men were not preparing for active warfare, but merely getting together for self protection. The facts as related by one gentleman are that when the American company organized it was with the in- tention of carrying on a cigarette busi- ness.
 However, in short time the company enlarged its field and began the manu- facture of plug and other tobaccos which was followed by the cutting of prices. This was the first mistake the cigarette men made, for in entering the | plug field then encroached on the terri tory of firms equally as powerful as any | in the American trust
 | For some time the manufacturers out side the trust have waged war on those within; consequently the trade has been somewhat demoralized It is claimed l by some manufacturers that the pre-. vailing prices made to meet the trust cut are ruinously low, and that an or. ganiza tion to fight the trust is an abso. lute necessity.
 It is not expected that an active wal will be waged on the American and ma. tional companies, but rather that g campaign of armed peace will be inau. gurated A leading leaf dealer says
 "The new combine will go to the trust
 and say, You see our strength? Well
 we are ready to fight to a finish, or will | compromise on certain terms" Y" But there is another view of the mat. ter taken by well-informed tobacconists It was also stated that the American
 and national companies, seeing active preparations to stop the encroachment into the plug field and to enter the cig
 arette business. would go to the plug combine and try to effect new and larger and more powerful trust thar ever. If the latter should be the result the small manufacturer would be forced lout of the business.

poLI,s OPENING DAY.
PoLrs WONDERLAND THEA1


 POLTS WONDERLAND THEATER.
 The anxiously awaited opening of the season at Polls Wonderland theater oc- CUTS this afternoon, and extensive pre- parations have been made for it. The attractions secured are of prime quail ity and the entertainment is certain to be of the best character. Sadi AL farabi, the Russian balancing wonder and manupede, who heads the bill. is most remarkable young man. He is by birth a Lett an ancient race which inhabit one of the Baltic provinces of Russia, but speaks Russian, Lettish, German, French, Italian and English. The feats he performs are most re- markable. One of his star feats, and one which he claims has never been duplicated to his knowledge by any other athlete, is his hand balancing upon four billiard cues, two in each hand, with the smaller end resting upon the floor; he then raises his legs over his head and balances in that po- sition. Prof. Macart's dog and mon- key comedians are likewise a great feature, their performance being most remarkable exhibition of animal intelli- genee. After going through a most amusing series of comedy tricks. such as skirt dancing, boxing and leaping in which the monkeys take a consider able part the dogs present a thrilling fire drama in which they rescue a child from the flames and inter the remains of burned man. To support Alfarab and the dog and monkey comedians a powerful speciality combination has been secured. Big throngs will nc doubt be present.

"Our daily need Is present helper. Saviour. Men have long heard of a God in heaven. We now have Him with us on the earth, The world has grown weary of your far-off God, your silent, sleeping Deity, who only opens His eyes by the sound of the lute and the harp, who can only be approached by pre- scribed forms and ceremonies. The people have lost all faith in Deity who leaves the poor to perish In their pow erty. The want of our age is God in man.
 "'By this shall ye be known This is the badge of discipleship, not your cry. Lord, Lord not your profession of saintship, but your practice of broth erly Kindness, By this, not your creed, not your church letter, not your fasting and praying, not your white or red rib bon, not your star or cross. not your garb or watch-word, but by this-'your love for one another This is the Christian livery, the only true robe of the saint Nothing. but this will avail, This is the land of the law, the top root from which spring all the Christian graces, and without this, whatever we may pretend or profess, we are noth- ing,
 Love never faileth, but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there betongues, they shall cease; wheth- CT there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. And now abideth faith, hope, love-these three-but the greatest of these Is love"
