A WONDERFUL PAINTING.
Viewed by Many Thousands of Ladies
and Gentlemen.

Viewed by Many Thousands of Ladies
and Gentlemen.
Mana" the beautiful painting on ex-
hibition at 1893 Chapel street, has been
viewed by great many people since
it's arrival in this city. 1t is pronounced
the finest specimen of figure painting
that has been produced in modern
times, and in delicacy of treatment,
manipulation of color and artistic quail
ity ii has no equal. The figure is per-
feet There is not a single expression
or limb that could be improved, The
coloring of the flesh is superb. The
face and head are perhaps the chief
parts, and as one sees the lips parted,
the bright blue eyes sparkling and the
whole face wreathed in smiles, one ex-
pects momentarily to hear a silvery
laugh echoing therefrom. The long
golden hair surrounding the head and
falling in massive, yet natural coils,
about the richly covered velvet cush-
ion and on the floor, one tress resting
on the hand, thus serving to increase
the effect, is remarkably beautiful. But
still, after contemplating the other
parts Of the picture, one insensibly
turns ones gaze back to the face, it is
hard to believe that Mana" is only a
picture, it's realism and fidelity of
treatment are so wonderful. 1t is a
picture that, once seen, can never be
forgotten. For the few remaining days
that Mana" will remain, and in order
that everybody should see this master
piece, the management have arranged
the following price Of admission: 8 a.
m. to p. M, 20 cents; 5 p. m. to IL
d. M, 10 cents

VIII Attend.


The great food exposition begins
week from to-day, and in connection
Herewith will occur the second mer-
c''ants' carnival, which promises to be
much more successful than was antici-
pated.
An advertising chariot has been de-
vised to travel over the country and
distribute the necessary advertising
material. 1t will be one-horse equip
age of unique design, large and small,
and 50 advertising balloons. Mann
moth signs on the exterior of the
the horse attached will wear a span
gled robe, silver belled harness, and
plumes. A large balloon will float 200
feet above the chariot, displaying an
advertising banner.
The start will be made tomorrow
morning at 9 o'clock from the Green,
and the country will be traversed for
radius of 80 miles. Every town of
importance will be posted until the peo
pie won't see anything but carnival
and food show on any spare space. Bal
looms viii be sent up from the chariot
as it approaches each town and as it
leaves The farewell balloons will con-
tain orders for money or prizes re-
deema BILE at the stores whose names
are printed upon the carnival trading
cards.
While this will be an expensive way
of advertising the festivities it is, the
advertising committee thinks, the best
ed this privilege of pasting the
depots, but then the local mer-
chants purchased $1,000 worth of
tickets from the roads and paid for
them in cash BY the rebate system
of giving the visitors to the coming fes-
tivlties their return fares, the railroad
is not sure of getting anything unless
the affair is a success On this basis
they refused to cooperate on the ad-
vertlsing scheme.
The management has devised several
| features which will appeal favorably to
| the public There will probably be
given souvenirs for the first 200 or 300
| ladies who purchase tickets of adnlis-
! ion that will be valuable as a reminder
Of the exhibition. 1t will probably be
| in the shape of a souvenir spoon or
something Of value that will be an in
ducement to those who attend. There
| will be coupon attached to the ticket
of admission which will give the pur-
chaser gift which will remind the
| holder of the occasion. 1t may be in
the shape of spoon or some appru-
pirate device referring to the exhibit.
In the list of exhibits that of Will
| liam Potter, jr., of 1874 Milk street, Bos-
ton, Mass, deserves especial mention
1t will consist Of the representation of
| gigantic COW about twelve feet in
| length and eight feet in height There
| will be several young ladies arrayed
as dairy maids in the regular
costume of caps, aprons, etc, who
| will give the spectator glass of milk
or anything in the nature of dairy pro-
ducts. This will be an attractive feat
ure of the exhibition. Many citizens
of New Haven have noticed on business
wagons sign on which was the legend

THE HORRORS OF CUBA.

Terrible Rnvages Of Smallpox Among
san Domingo Reconcentrados.
Havana, Dec. 2.-The deplorable con-
dition Of the country grows more and
more apparent. Refugees and recon-
centrados are becoming more and more
miserable. According to reports from
San Domingo smallpox is making ter
rlble ravages among the reconcentra-
dos. Since April last more than 1900
have died in the city alone, to say
nothing of the suburban towns, which
are likewise infested.
The local authorities take no steps
whatever to check the mortality. The
streets of the city are thronged with
famine stricken, wretched beings, who
succumb to disease under, perhaps
some lonely portico and sometimes fall
dead in the gutter.
The press correspondents at San Do
mingo say that the worst African saw
ages are more humane than the local
authorities. More than 29O smallpox
cases are known 20 exist. but no one
is ever vaccinated. Medical aid is very
scarce. and the burial of these wretch
ed beings is most brutauy affected
Often as many as Is corpses are piled
together in a car and then dumped to-
gether in a hole.

Berlin, Dec. Am sorts of wild T1i-
mors are current here and at Kiel.
probably based In the main upon the
speech Of Emperor william at the open
ing Of the re echstag, as to the relations
between Germany and China. But
most OF these are discredited. The Ma
tional zeitung has confirmed the state
ment Of the emperor that Germany's
only object in the occupation at Kiao-
chau is to protect German missionaries
in China, and the alarmist stories are
now taken with liberal allowances of
salt
A sensation was caused yesterday by
report that the Chinese had massa-
cred 200 German sailors belonging to
the German cruiser division in Kiao-
chau bay, but there has been no con-
firmation of this, while the latest dis
patches received from Admiral Won
Diedrich, commander Of the division
make no reference to fighting at Kiao-
chau.
1t is reported in well informed cir
cles that the views of the Russian go.
ernment have undergone a change as
to the situation at Kiaochau bay. See
ing the large force that Germany is
assembling there Russia Is inclined
with France, to oppose German action,
Another report is that France, Ger
many and Russia have entered into a
compact for acquisition Of Chinese ter
ritory, Germany taking Shan-Tung,
Russia taking Corea and France taking
Fo-Kien and Formosa.
