An extremely interesting performance
of Carmen" was given at the Hyperion
the4tcr last evening by the Boston
Lyric Stock company from the Castle
Square theater of Boston. This COM
pany and its performances have been
the subject Of a great deal of discus
sion among musicians 1t has been the
first successful attempt to present
grand opera and standard opera COM
ique sung in English and at popular
prices. This same sort of venture has
been made numberless times without
avail, Either the performances have
been too costly for the talent employed
and failure has resulted or the standard
of operas has had to be lowered for
money making purposes until the pre-
sensations were beneath criticism. This
Castle Square undertaking has sue
| ceeded from the first, This is the first
tour the company has made.
They have sung 641 consecutive per-
formances in Boston and their popu-
larity has rivalled that of the vaude-
vile, which is paradoxical in these days
! of theatrical degeneracy. No less than
forty-six operas have been given.
Among these have been the standard
| operas of the grand opera repertory,
| the better class of opera comique, and
most interesting of all some of the old
school productions like Mozart $
Magic Flute which are never heard
| nowadays. Every production has
given evidence of the sincerity of pur-
pose of the management and the truly
artistic aspirations of the singers. And
the best critics have united in prais-
ing the attempt even when the realiza-
ton was little crude. There is not a
wonderful singer in the company, but
there are several good ones. And the
!. general excellence of the chorus work
and ensemble are truly praiseWorthy
| The prices are what is known as "popu-
lar and the opportunity is one that
ought not to be neglected.
The performance of Carmen" was
very good. Miss Clara Law in the title
role showed that she has a good voice,

and with excellent effect. She can act
and has no little individuality of tenn

| "Michaela" won great applause after
| the Prayer" in the third act. The
small parts of "Frasquita" and "Mer-
cedes" were sung by Misses Norwood
and Ladd, both of whom have nice
| voices. Payne Clark sang some ringing
high notes now and then, but his per-
Torrance otherwise was not out of the

BICYCLE ACCIDENT.

James Koran Struck BY Bicyclist.
What might have been a serious bicy-
Gle accident occurred last evening about
$50 o'clock through the carelessness of
a bicyclist returning from the Yale bail

corner Of Chapel and Day streets, just
as James Koran, a lineman for the
Western Union Telegraph company
and whose home is Scranton street, off
Waverly. was leaving West Chapel
street trolley car on the corner of Day
street going home. A large number Of
bicyclists were speeding hOmeward
when, without warning from bell, Mr.
Koran was run into and thrown to
the ground very hard, and before he
could arise to his feet another machine
struck him, turning over On top of
him. it's rider falling with much force
on the victim. Mr.. Horan's thumb on
his left hand was badly hurt, and he
complained Of pain in his chest, prob
ably from the fall of the second ma
chine and its rider. So rapidly was the
bicycle going that in the collision the
rim of the front wheel of the bicycle
was broken, and its owner was COM

YALE LOST TO LAFAYETTE

II to Was the Score that Downed the
Yalensians--Yale's Battery is Far
Below the Standard-Fairly Good
Work in the Field.
Eleven to s was the score by which
the Lafayette baseball team downed
Captain Realtors men of Yale at Yale
field yesterday afternoon. Yale failed
to put up the game with which Brown
was met last week, and although the
home team started in well 1t went to
pieces in the second, when with bases
full Feary, Yale's pitcher, gave Hubley
his base on balls and allowed Lapton
to walk over the plate, having been
forced off third.
Yale's batter work was poor, and with
it rests in great part the responsibility
for the defeat. Bartlett behind the bat
for Yale made a miserable showing,
and made very apparent the need of a
man like Murphy in that position
Feary pitched until the sixth inning,
when he was replaced by Hamlin,
Feary going to right field and taking
the place of Hazen, who then retired
from the game.

Charles DUDLEY WARNER
Lectured Before New Haven Public Schoo
Teachers Last Evening.


Teachers Last Evening.
At College street hall last evening
Charles Dudley Warner delivered the
last in the series Of lectures to the pub
lie school teachers Of New Haven. His
subject was 1.-THE Present Aspects of
Education"
Mr.. Warner spoke, among other
things, of the pliability of the childs
mind, and mentioned cases known in
which pickpockets in London had
taught their nefarious business to their
children. He said that seeds of some
ennobling thought or principle sugges-
tive of a higher life would grow as well
in child's mind as seeds of evil He
spoke of the part child's sub-con-
seriousness plays in its education, and
said that as soon as the child is born it
begins to learn sub-consciously, and in
this way the most important part of
the child's education is obtained before
it is six years of age. He said that this
sub-conscious education is kept up all
through our lives, and this is the phil
osophical reason why in the school
room the attempt is now made to cult
vate something else besides what can
be obtained from books and from the
blackboard
In speaking of manual training in the
schools, Mr.. Warner spoke of this as an
attempt to turn the school into a work.
shop. He said that when we attempt
to turn our schools into mere trade
schools we lose a part of that intellect
ual awakening for which our schools
are maintained, and which we need.
We can get along better without the
other than with it. But he said that
where manual schools are conducted as
adjuncts to intellectual training he be-
lieved that they assisted in awakening
the mind.
Mr.. Warner also spoke of the inf1u-
ence of refinement on the child, and
dwelt upon the Importance of teaching
good breeding and manners in the
schools.

Sim Belden was still alive, still able
to grub under the foot OF the ever

Sim Belden was a tall. handsome
giant of 80, who had come from no one

With her dark locks flowing down,
And her saffron hood and gown

And we owe to her. hold.
Whether she be kind or cold,
Whether she being rue or myrrh
When we lift our gates to her,
Well and duly to receive her,
Lest our sad complaining grieve her.
What she brings us, heaven sent,
Take your gift and be content,
Though 1t be not what you sought.
And your prayers seem set at naught,
He knows best, who ruled the giving,

At the pangs of yesterday,
Nor disturb her heart in vain
With the hint of coming pain;
For fell, impending sorrow
May be Gods best gift tomorrow.

ETHEL'S NEW YEARS CALLER.

All day long Ethel wished and wish
ed that she was a grown-up lady like
Sister Grace, so that she could have
a New Years caller.
But the long, bright day went by
and not a single call did she have.
After supper she went slowly up into
the parlor and looked discontehtedly
out of the window.
Right under the gaslight she saw a.
glossy black cat. He took lfP' first

Big Gold story from siberia.

Russell E. Dunn, mining engineer,
who has just returned from Siberia,
declares that the mineral wealth at
the head waters OF the Amur river is
very large. He developed some min
ing properties for a French syndicate
in the mountains from which flow four
streams that feed the Amur. Near
that place placer miners were taking
out fortunes that make the Klondike
seem poor. Out of one gulch not over
two miles long coarse gold and mug
gets amounting to s1O,O00.00O were
taken. The country is no place for
prospectors, however. as only a COM

that he had discovered process by
which old and rancid butter could be
made as good as new, but that he
could only handle large quantities.

creamery butter Then they sent
agents all over the state, bought heav-
lily and sent the stuff to him. To their
CONSERVATION, he declined to operate
on it, but offered to buy it at small
figure, much less than they had paid
for it, and as, in the open market, ii
would be graded as axle-grease, they
were obliged to let him have 1t.
