difficulty, and whose decisions will be as binding as the decision of the su- preme court Is upon us The spirit of the age seems to be gradually tending towards a fulfilment of that prediction.
 General Grant was man who seem ed to be created especially to meet great emergencies. It was the very magnitude of the task which called forth the powers that manifested it. Whether leading and attacking Mexico, dictatlng the terms of surrender to countless thousands in the war of rebel lion, suddenly assuming vast responsi- bility in great crises, both in peace and In war, writing state papers as presi- dent, which were to have a lasting bear ing upon the policy of the government; travelling through all the lands and mingling with the descendants of line of kings, who rose and stood uncov- cred in his presence, he was always equal to the occasion, and acquitted himself with the success that chal- lenges the admiration of the world. In trivial matters he was an ordinary man; in momentous affairs he lowered as a giant. As Johnson said of Milton: He could hew a Colossus from the rocks; he could not carve faces on | cherry
 After a pause General Porter said: | And now, MT. Mayor, it becomes my official duty on behalf of the Grant | Monument association to transfer through you to the city of New York this national memorial Its construc- | bo ha nf "a n and generous hearts. About 90,000 pa | triotic citizens have been contributors to the building fund; their subscrip- tions ranging in amounts from one cent | to $5,000, so that it has been an emi- nently popular subscriptions. The en- tire fund with accrued interest amounts to about S600,O0O The monument itself | is now completed Provision has been made for colossal statue to surmount the dome of the monument, the work upon which will begin without unreas- enable delay"
 With suitable words of acknolWedge- ment of the assistance, counsel and cooperation of the trustees, officers and members of the monument dedica- tion committee, he closed by saying:
 And now, MT. Mayor, it only remains for me formally to transmit through you to the custody of the nations me tropolis this memorial tomb, which henceforth is to remain in the custody of the city over which you have the honor to preside"
 Mayor Strong next accepted the mon. ument on behalf of the city. In his re. marks, he said:
 General Grant served his country 1T peace and war; making our present conditions possible, We this day recon secrate ourselves to all that is best il American citizenship, to all that is bes in this government founded by the ia thers, preserved by our martyred he roes, and blessed by the grace of Al mighty God"
 The exercises closed with the Halle lujah Chorus" from Handers Mes siah," and the Doxology, sung by thu chorus under Frank Damrosch, consid erably helped by the crowd. The Peo ple's Choral union and the Oratorit society of New York then sang Wag ner's "Kaisermarsch," with words spe cially written for the ocasion, and 9Th Battle Hymn of the Republic"

IN THE SUPERIOR COURT.
Appeal From Probate Argued Before
 Judge Robinson.


 The appeal from probate of Anthony McMahon of Meriden was heard and argued before Judge Robinson in the civil side of the superior court yester- day. The probate court allowed Me- Mahon $22O for acting as an executor of the will of his brother, Simon Me Mahon, who died at Meriden December 27, 1894, and left an estate of 71,000.
 The appellant alleges that the allow ance of the probate court was unfair, and asks for $1500. He sets up that Co-Executor John Meiklin of Meriden was allowed $400 for his services, The estate had claim against Meiklin of $2,100, and he had counter-claim of $S,000. Both claims were satisfied by the payment to Meiklin of the $400, and he was removed for alleged interference in the settlement of the estate, he hav- ing refused to act as executor until his claim was settled.
 Attorney Merriman appeared for Me- Mahon, and Attorney George A. Fay for the estate.
 The court rendered a judgment in fa- vor of the appellant and allowed $500 for services as executor.

Polls Wonderland Theater.

The noted Russell brothers are mak- ing themselves solid favorites at Polls Wonderland theater with their quaint speciality, ."The Irish Servant Girls" !" The piece is chockful of acting hunor and life, and the intensely comical sit- uations that are scattered through it are primed with laughter at every turn. Jimmy Russells limitations of Bern hardt, Clara Morris and other noted actresses indicate much cleverness, even though he injects into them some features that are very eccentric. Among the supporting artists are many bright and clever ones. Specially eminent are Miss Gertrude Mansfield, Mr. Morton and Miss Revelle, Moa and Goodrich, Gilbert Girard, the Folly Trio, Miss Edna Aug, and MT. Kelly and Miss Grey. Bicycle riders who desire to visit the show can have their bicycles check ed free by applying to the doortender.

ENTERTAINMENTS.
IIyperiOn.

THE OPERA OF PRISCILLA" sented for the first time In this city last February by amateur talent, had been heralded on the cards and posters as "the musical event of the season." ," and such indeed it proved to be, as well as one of the leading society events, for no more fashionable audience had been present during the season than of the opera. As rule, all amateur att fractions are presented in much the same way, usually lacking the finish and attention to detail which marks a professional production. The audience, while prepared to be pleased, was un- prepared for the dash and spirit with which Priscilla" was given, and long before the finale of the first act the ap- plause which greeted several of the numbers amply testified to the appreci- ation of the audience
 Priscilla" will be given a second pre- sentation at the Hyperion on Saturday evening, May 1, by the same company that gave such satisfaction on its for mer presentation.
