AT TRINITY YESTERDAY.

Beautiful Decorations for the Christ
mas Season--Rev. DR. Douglas Ser
mon on the Birth of Christ.-Special
Musical Program.
Old Trinity church never showed to
better advantage than it did yester-
day in its garland dress of Christmas
greens Everywhere, from organ loft
to chancel, it was most artistically
hung with ropings of laurel and run
ming pine. A pretty effect was furnish
ed by the framing of the large, hand
some windows with great branches of
rich dark hued laurel. Evergreens also
entwined the pillars. The cfancel was
beautiful everywhere. Palms and lau-
rels greeted the eve. The reredoS was
massed bank fashion with greens. In
direct contrast to this huge dark mass
was emblazoned in the center a large
bright star made up of flame red inn
morteles Below this piece on either
side were set a crown and cross of i'm
mortelfes of a creamy white shade, the
whole forming lovely background for
the handsome white marble sacred desk
with its gold embellishings and
branches of easter lilies.
DIR. Douglas delivered an eloquent
sermon on the Birth of Christ.
The music was exceptionally good
the full vested choir assisting. The TIE
Deum and Kyrie were rendered. At
the offertory "Sing o Heaven" was new
er better sung The choir did splendid
work, it's renditions showing artistic
finish throughout

WEDDING BELLS.

Reeves Bavier Wedding Saturday
day Night-Also Silver Anniversary
Celebration of the Brides Parents.
A very pretty wedding was that
which took place at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. William Reeves, 1874 Dwight
street, on Saturday night, when their
daughter, Olive K, was united in mar
riage to one of New Ravens we'll
known young men, Mr.. Nelson Bavier,
superintendent of the New Haven OPP
teal Novelty company's factory. What
made the event doubly interesting was
the fact that at the same time the
brides parents celebrated their silver
wedding anniversary, they having been
married at Kingston-on-the-Tha
England, just twenty-five years ago
that same day. The house was taste
fully decorated for the double event
with evergreens and flowers, the pre-
vailing colors otherwise being pink and
white. The happy couple at the we'd
ding ceremony stood under bower
Of evergreens, while right above their
heads was suspended a large bell COM
posed of pink and white carnations.
The bride, who was given away by
her father, looked more than charming
attired in highly becoming gown of
white silk trimmed with pearl passe-
menterie and real point lace, the latter
being am heirloom of the family. The
proverbial veil was dispensed with and
in place she wore sprigs of orange bios
SONS in her hair, and carried bouquet
of white bridal roses. The bridesmaid
was Miss Elizabeth Askey of New
York, and she was becomingly attired
in a dress of yellow silk trimmed with
cream lace and carried a bouquet of
pink and white carnations. The maid
of honor, little Miss Devina. Rowan,
looked sweet and pretty dressed in
white Swiss MULE with pale pink trim
mings and carrying a basket of pink
and white carnations.
The best man was Mr.. George Bavier,
the grooms brother The ceremony
was performed by the Rev. Dr.
Twitchell of Dwight Place church. The
young couple were the recipients Of
many handsome and useful presents,
among which was a check for a con-
siderable amount from the parents of
the bride, and beautiful timepiece
from the employees of the Optical Nov
city company. The presents to Mr..
and Mrs. Reeves were also valuable
and numerous.
AT the conclusion of the marriage
ceremony a supper was served by
Sparks & Champion. The cakes, which
We're both very artistically decorated,

ANTHONY CARROLL TALKS.

Speaks to an Audience of Six men at
st. Aloysius' Hall Last Evening.
At st. Aloysius' hall last evening An
thony Carroll spoke to an audience Of
six men against the proposed consoH
dation of the city and town govern
ments, and on alleged abuses in the
present city government. The har-
angue included criticisms directed
against every mayor of New Haven
during the past thirty years, except
Mayor Shelton, and also against other
officials and departments of municipal
government. Dishonesty and neglect
of duty in various instances were
charged, and M. Carroll wound up by
saying that the present town govern
ment was more honest government
than that of the city and should be re-
tanned instead of being abolished.
The half dozen men in the hall stayed
to the end of the address and applaud
ed vigorously as the speaker closed
with a, fierce invective directed against
the city government in general.

HON FRANK GOULD. THE MAN OF THE DAY.

will compose the committee that viii
plead the cause of suffrage before the plat
form committee, provided leave is granted,
which is reasonably certain, as the right
of petition Is not yet abrogated. The la
dies will be heard and bowed out. There
will be no reference to the question In the
platform 1t is believed. In the convention
Gavin McNab will, perhaps, offer resolu-
ton of sympathy or something OF the
kind, and it will receive dozen or more
votes, and with that the matter will be
passed. Speaking of the matter tonight
Miss Anthony said:
1.-The question of suffrage seems newer
to the Democratic party than to the Re-
publican. The Repu blican party has ap-
preached the subject often, passing senti-
mental resolutions at least. But the
Democratic party, with professions of be-
ing the party of the people, cannot ignore
the rights of woman without being un-
true to its own faith. The adoption of a
plank favoring suffrage would not in any
event commit the individual voter, for he
would vote his personal convictions on
the subject anyhow. The value we at
tach to such declaration is the free discus
sion of the subject that it insures. 1t
would open the columns of the newspa-
it. That is all that suffrage needs to win
that people understand it. / am GER
tain we will win this fall anyhow, but
should think the Democratic party would
be glad of our aid in their contest"

listed with the cause. The wife of Warden
Aull called at the equal suffrage head
quarters to-day and declared her active al
Iegiance. She said she would do all in her
power to assist the cause. Mrs. S. j..
Hanchell and Mrs. Frank Orcutt of this
city also dropped in and assured the COM
mittee of their support.
The ladies are keeping close to their
headquarters and are not attempting any
personal canvass of the delegates. The
headquarters wear forlorn appearance
as compared to the busy scene it pre-
sented during the Republican Convention.
The Republicans manifested their appre-
citation of the ladies In a very marked
degree.
''What we are particularly afraid Of"
said Mrs. Ida Harper, who acts especially
as the press committee, sis that we shall
be ignored-that is, that the platform
shall be silent regarding equal suffrage.
If the Democratic party is opposed to
equal suffrage we wish it to so say in its
platform. Then we shall know who our
friends are and who our enemies. We are
neither Democrats nor Republicans, re.
member, in this matter of securing en-
franchisement. We have personal bear
ings, to be sure, but they are sunk in the
one purpose before US. Very many promi-
nent women OF the State who have Demo
cratic predictions will feel it deeply IL
the Democratic party does less for us than
did the Republican.
1--WE have petitions to present here with
the signatures of 10000 residents of the
State over 81 years of ags, asking for the
Al
The signers are about equally divided as to
sex. The signatures have been collected
within the last three months.
Alameda is the banner county in this
matter. Now, suppose Alameda County's
delegation here should place itself in oppo-
stion to US. as it is intimated it will do,
maintain that it does not represent the
sentiment of its people.
THE Republican convention was rather
taken by surprise by the strength of our
campaign. There was no organized op-
position to US. We came down here with
the outspoken and unqualified support of
THE CALL. That was great thing for
us. 1t practically amounts to the differ
ence between then and now. Had we the
support of some paper that is to the Demo-
cratic party what THE CALL is to the Re-
publican party you would not see this in
difference of the delegates to-day. Our
cause was adopted by the Republican con-
vention with rush. Since then six
weeks have intervened, and the opponents
of suffrage in the State-I will not say
what composes the opposition, but inter-
ests that believe they will be injured by
the adoption of woman suffrage-have Or
ganized and made a hard fight against US.
That explains the situation"

not against Gould, but they think that
the fight over the chairmanship is simply
fight for power and plunder in San
Francisco, and they would probably favor
some good man who is not mixed up in
the FUSS They are against anything that
has Buckley attached to it, on general
principles.
1t is on such material which comes roll
ing into town from all over the Slate,
made up OF stanch, true and unprejudiced
men undecided about the fight, that the
antl-Gould people rely to swell their initial
strength to the necessary majority. 1t is
because there are so many such delegates
that there is any uncertainty about how
the big fight over the chairmanship, Dag
gett and the San Francisco contest will
break tomorrow. The friends of Gould
still contend that there is no uncertainty
in regard to his success, and it really
seems that they have good grounds for
their hopefulness.
1t is said the Shasta delegation has also
prepared sweeping currency plank which
it will ask the convention to make part
of the platform. The plank reads as fol-
lows:
RESOLVED, That we are in favor of the United
States Government coming every ounce OF sill
yer mined within its borders at the ratio of 16
to 1, without any condition whatsoever.

HAMILTON FOR CHAIRMAN.
Placer Delegates Declare for the
Old War-HOrse.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, June 15.-J. A.
Filcher, editor of the Auburn Herald and
manager of the State Board of Trade, and
the old Democratic war-horse, General
Joe Hamilton, headed the Placer delega-
ton, which got in during the forenoon.
Filcher will be the representative of Placer
County on the new State Central Com.
mittee.
Old Joe Hamilton is known to every
Democrat in the State who has not jumped
into party activity within three or four
years. Hamilton was Attorney-General
of the State for two terms and has missed
but one convention in thirty years or
more.
On the way down the delegates dis
cussed the fuss about the Craftsmanship
and made up their minds that if the dele
gates kept on fighting at Sacramento they
would spring Joe Hamilton for the chair
manship. The Placer delegation came
unpledged and undetermined about the
Craftsmanship and with general prejudice
against Buckley, though without any par
ticular understanding or care about the
San Francisco contest.
"The delegates care particularly who is
chairman" said Mr.. Fiicher. "They are

trict.
Others guessed, probably uniustly, that
Foote would have something to say about
the appointment of the State executive
committee, and that possibly the way of
the Senatorial aspirations might have been
slightly smoothed.
There was no hint of anything discred-
liable in the slightest degree from any
body except very few of the Buckleyites,
who spoke hasty words in their wrath.
1t was simply assumed that Foote re-
ceived assurances in behalf of himself and
his friends which were of course satisfac-
tory and, politically considered, in every
way proper. Foote, however, did not
cease his cursing of John Daggett and his
declarations of hostility to him when he
went into Gould's camp.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
Few Democratic Delegates Swear
Allegiance to the Cause.

Few Democratic Delegates Swear
Allegiance to the Cause.
SACRAMENTO, CAL, June 15.-Susan
B. Anthony, Mrs. Sarah B. Cooper and
her daughter Harriet arrived to-day, COM
pleting the equal suffrage delegation III so
far as its work before the Democratic Con-
vention is concerned. They to-day ap-
pointed the committee that will appear be-
fore the platform committee, if their petit
ton is allowed, to plead the cause of
woman. They have received no encour-
agement whatever from any source, and
while they continue to hope they do not
expect the same treatment from the State
Democracy that was accorded them by the
Republicans.
The women have established head
quarters in parlor %, third floor of the
Golden Eagle Hotel. In the Office and
about the Railways of the hotel are neatly
printed placards announcing that fact
and cards are distributed everywhere an
nouncing that "You are respectfully in
vited to call at woman suffrage head
quarters" etc.
Very, very few have so far accepted the
invitation. No delegation has done so as
a body, although two or three counties
have instructed their delegates to vote for
woman suffrage. Some four or five indi-
viduals have called, among them GAVIN
McNab and Max Pepper. both assuring
the committee that they were heartily in
sympathy with their cause. J. A. Filcher
of Placer County, manager of the State
Board of Trade, went up the elevator with
the intention OF doing something of that
kind, but looking in and seeing a room
full of ladies he backed out under some
subterfuge. He was afterward led back
by newspaper man and made his little
speech.
The threatened organized opposition of
women of the State has not developed any
showing whatever. A number of prom
inent women have, on the contrary, en-
