 II, B. GIBBUD TO SPEAK. The meeting at Warner hall at o'clock tomorrow afternoon, under the auspices of the Young Mems Christian association, promises to be of more than usual interest. The speaker, H. B. Gibbud, is well known to the people of New Haven, having spoken here on one or two occasions, at the Christian Workers convention. He was one of S''N AAASSt "AAAPA SP9AHo AS W0AL pOpuldL speakers, He was the originator of the first all night mission in New York, where he labored for years among the lowest and most degraded classes of people, being instrumental in the refor- nation of several members of one of the most notorious gangs of thieves and murderers. For some time he lab- | bred in and conducted the mission in Syracuse, N. Y., where he accomplished vast results. His experience there reads like a romance. Receiving a call to the Springfield college for Christian workers he is now located there teach- ing methods of applying Christianity. Ills talk tomorrow afternoon on "Jonah's Journey" will be well worth hearing. The association has secured quartet from Yale to furnish music. John T. Manson will lead the meeting. The number attending these Sunday afternoon meetings is rapidly increas- ing, and it is expected that the capacity of the hall will be tested tomorrow. The men of this city are invited. MORRIS PARK CHAPEL.

GREAT POLO GAME.

Big Crowd Witness an Exciting Con- test Between Merden and New Haven The Game Tie at Call of Time, But Ultimately Won by New Haven
 One of the biggest crowds of the sea- son witnessed one of the most exciting games of polo that has ever been played in Quinnipiac rink last night. The Meridens played their usual team, while for New Haven Thompson played in place of Spencer. The game opened very fast and Meriden scored the first goal twenty-five seconds from the start. This was all the scoring in the first fifteen minutes. Spencer made his ap- pearance in the second period and was received by the crowd with a. perfect ovation, Just eleven seconds from the start Spencer scored very clever goal and tied the score. After some hot play c. Warner evened up by beating Nal lory. No more scoring took place dur ing this period. Play in the last period became fast and furious and after eight minutes and thirty-two seconds F.. Gavitt did the needful and the game again became tie, and thus it remain ed when the whistle sounded time. It was decided to finish the game and play again opened furiously. After thirty seconds F. Gavitt drove for the cage and the ball came in contact with War ner and slid off him and past Kirwin and thus finished the game. Score New Haven, 3; Mertden, 3, Referee, MT Lush.
