 Among the young gentlemen and la dies who are at colleges and schools and who will return for the Christ mas vacation are Alllng Beardsley of Wesleyan, James Bassett of Yale, Louis Briton of the "Gunnery" Moyle of Wesleyan, Miss Maron of Weues- ley the Misses Atwater from New Mil ford, Wallace and Hubben of Yale '97. Derby seems to be well represented at the leading institutions of learning and many of the students are alumni of the Derby high school or attended there at some date.
 Leon filling, who is at Pittsheld at school, will return for the holidays. His asthma forbade him remaining in this section and his health is greatly benefited by the change.

THEIR FIRST THIS SEASON.
Concert of the New Haven Orchestral
 Club

Concert Of the New Haven OrcheStrat
 Club
 The first concert of the New Haven Orchestral club, under the directorship of Arthur H. Jackson, was given at the Hyperion last evening before a large audience, the majority of whom were obviously friends of the perform CTS. Good judgment was displayed in the selection of the ten numbers ren- dered, which comprised mainly compo- sitions of the lighter order. The or chestra was possibly at it's best in the interpretation of Rosies "The Rain bow Dance" but in some of it's other work showed lack of study. The or chestration of some of the compositions was noticeably weak and to this branch of the work attention should be given. The "Intermezzo" by Delibes, in the first part, was quite creditably done. The orchestra is a most credit able New Haven institution, is large in numbers and under Conductor Jack son, who is conscientious in his work,

A Firm Tone Characterized Stock Opera
 tions Yesterday.
 New York, Dec. 17.--A firm tone characterized operations at the stock exchange to-day. The opening was strong owing to a higher market for American securities in London and moderate purchases of St. Paul, Louis vile and Nashville, and low priced is- sues for foreign accounts. The gain at this time was equal to A@13s per cent, Rubber common scoring the greatest gain. Shortly after midday, however, the Gould stocks were subjected to a severe raid and under free offerings for professional account declined B0 2A per cent. Manhattan fell from 92A to 90, one broker alone selling 5000 shares.
 A turn for the better occurred about 1 o'clock, when it was announced from Washington that Secretary of State Olney would appear before the senate committee on foreign affairs tomorrow to argue against congressional action on Cuban matters at this time. The adjournment of the senate until Mon day was also favorably received by those operating for higher prices for stocks.
 Following these developments the whole market moved up under pur- chases for both the long and short accounts, The gain in prices was equal to F at 212 per cent, and was well dis tributed. Tobacco led the upward movement and rose to TX on talk of a retirement of the scrip issued earlier in the year; Rubber common rose to 26A, and was in demand on the belief that the directors will declare divi- dend late in the month. Chicago Gas, Spirits, Reading, the grangers and Louisville and Nashville were all con spicuous in the advance.
 The fact that the St, Paul earnings for the second week of December made better showing than generally expect ed the decrease being only $41,000, had a good effect on the grangers gen. orally.
 The chief topic of the day, however, was the possibility of gold exports to Germany next week The opinion in financial circles is that about 00O gold will be forwarded to Germany next week, if present conditions con tinue to prevail Money abroad is steadily hardening, discounts in the open market in London to-day having advanced to 3& per cent, while rates here are merely nominal Again, ster- ling exchange is gradually strength ening and interest and dividend pay ments due to Europe next month foot up a very heavy total
 Authorities agree that, with the current rates of sterling. the imperial bank of Germany, by allowing a slight premium and paying interest on the consignment while in transit, gold could undoubtedly be drawn from this center. Speculation closed strong. Net changes show gains of h61 per cent. Manhattan and Western Union lost F | G7s per cent Tobacco made an ex- ceptional gain of 1% per cent.
 The bond market was strong to-day. The transactions aggregated s1,109,0OO

Her first selection, "Nymphs and Fauns," was received with gener- ous applause, to which she responded with & cute little ballad.

The following is from the Chicago Standard of December 17 regarding the new book by Mrs. Mason, wife of Rev. John H. Mason of this city:
 'The Quiet King" by Mrs. Caroline At

 It is a pleasure to take up this book and admire it for it's perfect typogra- phy and elegant binding. One is led to like the book before reading a line.
