TEMPERANCE MASS MEETING.
Arrangements Completed for the Mcetin, in tIle Hyperinn

Arrangements Completed for the Meeting
 in tl,e Hyperion.
 The mass meeting to be held at the Hyperion next Sunday evening, under the auspices of the Catholic Total Ab- stinence societies of the city, promises to surpass those given in the past. The principal speaker will be Rev. Dr. Thomas J. Conaty of Worcester, Mass. He is one of the most brilliant orators among the Catholic clergy of the coun- try, and has a reputation that is world wide. Dr. Conaty has been president of the c. T. A. U. of America. He is now at the head of the Catholic summer school. He is also the editor of the School and Home Magazine.
 Prior to the speaking selections will be rendered by an orchestra, and an entertainment will be given.
 The doors will open at 7:15 and the exercises will commence at 7:45 o'clock. It is probable that many of the Cath olic clergy of the city will occupy seats on the stage, as we'll as clergy of other denominations. Invitations have also been extended to officers and members of the various local temperance soeie- ties. The N. c. T. U. and the Keeley league will both be largely represented. Rev. John D. Coyle, pastor of St. Johns R. c. church will preside, and the following will act as vice presidents of the mass meeting: James F. Bren- non, Thomas F. Measher, John F. Mea- lia, John H.

 Railway aud daMisce.laneous Stocks Were
 Again Quiet.
 New York, Jan. 23.-The railway and miscellaneous stock market was quiet again to-day and the. general run of active issues were lower. A few stocks, notably Manhattan and Sugar, were strong and closed with net gains. The other prominent issues were inclined to weakness throughout and lacked support In the early trading London, which had been buyer on previous days of the week, turned up as a seller of SEs Paul and Louisville and Nash ville, the result of rulr1ors current abroad of an alliance between Russia and Turkey, which complicates the European political situation. Sterling exchange also strengthened because of an increased demand for Saturday $ mail and posted rates for long bills were advanced F C. This also affected the stock market adversely. The loss in prices outside. of the industrials, how ever. was slight.
 Tobacco was a particularly weak spot and fell from 7S to 75ss on reports that an anitiItrust biil will be intro- duced in the Virginia legislature. Sugar first advanced from 102% to 1O4, but later returned to 102M@103 in sym pathy with the break in Tobacco. Leather preferred fell 1, to 61is; Rub- Der B, to 261s, and General Electric 1, to 25ss@26. The weakness of the last named was due to semi-official denials of the recent reports of working ar- rangement with the Westinghouse peo- pie. Railway stocks were lower, but the decline in no case exceeded a point. Manhattan wasstronger than for a long time past and on covering of short con- tracts rose ito 1021s@102.
 The market closed barely steady in tone. Net changes show declines of A@1 per cent. outside of Manhattan, which gained 15s per cent. The indus trials with the exception of Sugar lost as@21s per cent. Sugar gained $ per cent.
 Bonds were irregular, but in the main lower Sales were $1,335, ,000. Following are the closing prices re- ported by Prince & Whitely, bankers and brokers, 46 Broadway, New York, and 15 Center street, New Haven:

Inpraise of Horeb Lodge,

The following verses were written by D. Ashmun, one of the oldest members of Horeb lodge, B'nai Birth, of this city. and was read by him at the for tieth anniversary of the lodge, Sunday, January 19.
 Years ago was born maiden,
 And her name you all must know,
 With jeweled deeds was decked and
 laden;
 Wisdom sparkled from her brow.
 Her father was a lively stiner;
 Whats good for her he plainly knew. He "worked and watched to bring
 admirers, 4e But none who was not strict Jew.
 Each year, a birthfeast was given,
 Which in itself always refined. Aye, speeches flowed, as rain from Hea-
 ven; s@8
 All who partook were dined and wined From New York, Bridgeport admirers came; Most all prepared at home a toast. They praised her for her name and fame; Of course that pleased papa, the host. Now need her name to you be told? You all must know thissclever miss;
 Her charitable deeds are manifold, To widows, orphans was a bliss. To the poor and needy ever kind,
 The unfortunate found in her friend; For benevolence, aye, was never blind; To the suffering sick she would attend | If other pages look over And read aloud whats marked therein, Yes, many names there I discover, When you were young they brothers" | been. Who never absent from meeting; Each seat was filled, aye, to the door. Most friendly, brotherly in their greet | ing,
 Alas. now gone to wonder shore
 Their Sunday eyes were spent with Miss And every man took active part; l to be with her was choicest bliss; But now has scarce acorporaFs guard.
 The twenty-fifth anniversary neared, Oh, blessed event, who can forget?
 The maiden's fame was called and | cheered--
 Methinks hear said cheering yet.
 Horeb! Horeb. Brightest daughter, Bnai Brith order loves thy name, Not because thy views are broader;
 It loves you for your former fame.
 Horeb, Horeb. Still fair maiden, l Forty years is now ydur age; l Old in years, but not forsaken, l Thy fame stands forth on every page.
 Many noble deeds recorded, Shine to-day as bright as ever, Though in years somewhat retorted, :. Thy admirers leave thee never.
 Yes, they love you as of yore, s
 Horeb then as now, bright star, | Every day, aye, more and more, l Praise and love thee near and far. Some admirers perhaps grown cold 1 Nevertheless you're not forsaken. l Former lovers have grown old, Younger hearts their place have taken Strong in heart and firm in hand, | They thy boat lead bravely on; Horeb's ship will never strand, | Her crew is loyal every one Your veteran sailors bold and true, Fear lest some evil may befall thee; | But rest in peace, for Horeb's crew, Every n, a n a hero hat Then speed, dear Horeb, speed away, New life and vigor fill thy view. May every one that's here to-day Meet you ten years from date again!
