NORTH H4TEN.

June 19.-The exhibition of the Pas sion Play given in Memorial hall on Thursday evening was of marked inter- est, manifested by the entire silence in the audience during the time The views were exhibited by the aid of one of the latest improved dissolving lan- terms and the people appreciated the difference by being able to witness it without that pressure on the eyes and brain, the effect of the former method of illustration After eating cake and cream down stairs, many returned to the hall and witnessed another feature of the entertainment. The phOnograph connected with the megaphOne, which has a wonderful power of transmitting sound, general in the audience, tried the effect of the recitation and music and amused and entertained all pres ent for some time, adding much to the pleasant memory of the evening.

 Cn Thursday morning, at half-past ten. o'clock, the entire school with many of the parents and friends of the young ladies, assembled in the spa cious parlors and listened to a most eloquent and polished address from the Rev. Dr. Douglas on "AVocations and Ideals" From the beginning of his ad- dress to its end the speaker showed that he was thoroughly in sympathy with his youthful audience.
 A piano solo, played in graceful and refined style by Miss Grace Porter and several songs, beautifully sung by Miss Anna Treat, added to the pleasure of the occasion.
 The presentation of testimonials and diplomas was followed by the singing of the school hymn by the pupils; and then Dr. Douglas pronounced the ben ediction, and amid the congratulations of friends and companions the young graduates dispersed for the time be- ing.
 In the evening the annual school par ty, given by Miss Orton and Miss Mich ols, brought together again all the present members of the school and some of those who had been its pupils in former years.

QUEEN OF THE CHESAPEAKE BAY.
New Line of Steamboats Between Balti- more, Old Point Comfort and Norfolk.
Adjournnner

Realizing the demand of the travelling public at this age, and appreciating the liberal patronage over the York River line between Baltimore and Richmond, the Baltimore, Chesapeake and Rich mond Steamboat company will on July 1 inaugurate a new line between Balti- more, Old Point Comfort and Norfolk. in keeping with it's rail connections, the Southern Railway system, which to- day has a, national reputation for the most superbly equipped and well man. aged line of railway on the American continent, extending from Washington, D. C.-the national capital-and Nor folk on the Atlantic seaboard, reaching all the principal cities south of the Po- tOmac and east of the Mississippi river over it's own rails. This new line will have in service two of the most magni- ficent and swiftest boats that ever floated on the waters of the Chesapeake Bay-the Charlotte" and Atlanta"
 The steamer Atlanta" which has so aptly been termed the New Queen of the Bay is a veritable floating palace She was built by the William Cramp & Sons Shipbuilding company of Phila- delphia at a cost of s350,0 Her di- mensions are: Length 240 feet, beam 42 feet, depth to saloon deck 26 feet.
 The hull is constructed of steel of the best character known for shipbuilding
 No expense has been spared in mak- ing the passenger accommodation most complete. The dining room, which is handsomely finished in hard wood, and has a seating capacity for seventy persons, has been located on the main saloon deck, forward, thus insuring ample light and ventilation, and ena- bling passengers to command a. view of the beauties of the Chesapeake Bay while enjoying the meals for which this company has always been deserv- edly famous.
 The main saloon is handsomely deco rated in an artistic manner, and is lux uriousIy furnished. The staterooms are large and comfortable, fitted with steam heat, electric lights and call bells.
 The social hall is reached by a mag nifiCently carved hardwood stairway leading from the main saloon, and opens out on the promenade deck, where the passengers gather to admire the glories of the Chesapeake and to dis cuss the charms of this latest addition to the fleet of this progressive con- pany.

WHAT PIiTT SAYS.
He Accepts the Situation and Will Support
 the Ticket Nominated.

the Ticket Nominated.
 St. Louis, Mo, June 19.-Thomas c. Platt, on being interviewed said:
 Like good soldier and a good re- publican, l accept the situation and will support the ticket heartily and be- lieve it will be elected.
 There has been much in the con- test to 'irritate and dishearten the re- publicans who have not been in ac- cord with the men who have become masters of the situation. Our friends are satisfied with the results of their efforts in compelling the adoption of a gold standard platform. That is of more importance to the success of the ticket and the prosperity of the nation than all the rest. It is conceded that the controlling element of the New York delegation led the movement and was instrumental in accomplishing this object.
 As for the head of the ticket, no one doubts that he will cordially stand upon the platform that the convention has adopted and carry out the prin- ciples therein enunciated. Whatever may have occurred in the past, I feel confident that he will govern himself by the wishes of the people as so clear ly expressed In the gold standard plat form.
 The only other thing that the con- trolling element of the New York del egation desired which they found at tainable was the naming of a can li- date from New York state for the vice presidency. They would have ac- complished this result had Governor Morton consented to the use of his name for the second place after the convention declined to name him for the first place He would have con sented to the use of his name for the vice presidency in the interest of har- mOny and the success of the ticket, but he learned of the factious oppoSi- ton of a small minority of the New York delegation and wired peremptor- fly declining to permit his name to go before the convention. He had a Guf- fiCient number of votes pledged to se- cure this nomination, but on rCceiv- ing his pcremptory instructions there was nothing for us to do but support our eishbor, Garrett A. Hoba't of New Jersey, the most capable and available candidate"
