husking bee'' in the ball room of
the Waldorf Hotel. The young women
will wear aprons over their ball dresses
and the young men Jumpers over their

What an idea of the old-fashoned husking
bee they must have, to be sure.

Before beginning his so-called self-sup-
porting mission in Africa Bishop William
Taylor founded one of his kind in Chile
South America When he went to Africa,
in 1854, he committed his Chile mission to
an organization known as the Transit and
Building Fund Society, which was to con-
tinue the mission on the self-supporting
plan, which was for the missionaries to
teach school for such compensation az
they could get and look to the friends OF
the scheme at home to supplement their in
come by contributions. After a trial OF
about twenty years the mission has been
abandoned in that form and handed over
to the Methodist Missionary Society to be
conducted as other missions are, by con-
tributionS through the missionary society.
The Methodists have a prosperous mission
i'm Argentina, and the Chile mission will
now become a part of the South American
Conference. In the twenty years the
Transit and Building Fund Society had
acquired property valued at $1,000 this
they offered to the missionary society for
900 in annual payments Of 5000 at 21a
per cent. interest. There was great reluc-
lance on the part of the board TO take 1t
on these terms. but as the only alternative
was the sale of the property to any pur-
chaser and the abandonment OF the field
entirely, a majority of the board concluded
it best to take 1t, in hopes that there might
be In the experiment Of twenty years of
| failure a nucleus for mission work in that

seem to support themselves very well. Re-
| ferring to this transaction the New York

Witnesses the Presentation of Pains New
 Grand Spectacle, "Wnr Between China
 and Japan" at Savin Rock Last Night.
 Between five and six thousand people
 witnessed the production of Pains new
 pyro- spectacle War between Japan
 and China" at Savin Rock last night,
 and by the liberal applause which was
 given during the evening fully demon-
 strated that it was enjoyed. Last eye
 ming was set aside as New Haven
 night, and at the close very good like
 ness of Mayor Hendrick was displayed
 in fire.
 The spectacle deals with a conflict
 between China and Japan. The first tableau shows the imperial tea gardens
 of Japan with the Mikado holding a re- Ception, which is followed by general festivities and games. Next the scene is darkened and the spectators are transferred to China, the fortresses of
 Wei Hai-Wei looming up grimly be- fore them. A bugle sounds advance and the Japanese bicycle corps comes forward to be charged by the Chinese ' cavalry.
 Suddenly the Japanese warships open fire on the forts and then ensues the | most realistic portion of the spectacle, There is a constant roar of great guns, | the showers of rockets representing | bombshells, and the landing of the in 1 fantry, who add to the din by rattling | volleys of musketry. The forts are
 stormed and taken, and then blown up
 with a series of terrific explosions, l showing wonderful effects of colored | lights. Next captors and captives march in procession before the Mikado
 and the display concludes with grand display of fireworks.
 The spectacle is exactly the same in every detail as was presented at | Manhattan beach last summer, and if the interest here this week is anything | like as great as was the case last
 summer at the beach, immense crowds will be in attendance.
 | Those who were fortunate enough to
 witness Pains grand display last sea son will remember what splendid ex
 hibition it was, and those who did not i should take advantage of the present | opportunity of doing so, as this may be | the last tune that thlS eAHlplIloH Will | be given in this city.

4 PHEASANT EUROPEAN "TRIP.

President Wilbur F. Day of the Ma tional New, Haven bank had very pleasant trip to Europe. He sailed March 21 on the steamship F'u1da of the North German line. The passage over, as was also the passage back, the lat ter on the Fuerst Bismarck, was very enjoyable. His party consisted of his wife, his niece Miss Caroline Day of Staten Island, and Miss Breckinridge of St. Louis, Mo. They landed at Naples, and after viewing the city proceeded to Eastern, where they surveyed some of the ancient ruins Thence they went to Salerno and drove thence back to Naples, a distance of 100 miles, over the fine government road, from which is had a delightful view of the Mediter- ranean sea, all the way They next visited Perugia, Florence, Siena, Pisa and its leaning tower, Rome. Venice and the Italian lakes. From thence to Switzerland, where Geneva, Lucerne and Zurich were visited; thence to Nu- remberg, Munich and Dresden, and thence to Paris. Mir. Day left his party at Paris and thence came home Mrs. Day and the other two ladies were to travel in England, returning home in about a month. MT Day says the news of the nominations at the St Louis convention and of the adoption of the gold platform reached the steam er Fuerst Bismarck as it lay at Sandy Hook, and caused universal rejoicing, apparently everybody on the steamer being enthusiastic over the nomina tions and platform.
