A Notably Successful Social and Liter
 ary Entertainment--Hal a Dozen
 Towns Represented.
 Bethany Jan. 5.-The recent New Years eve entertainment given by the Magazine club in Perry's hall ought not to pass into oblivion and a word in the public prints will be unobjection- able to the club and will gratify it's friends in half a dozen towns who think the club we'll deserving of a. lit- tie praise and credit for the very pleas- ant occasion 1t afforded and trust it may give more of the same sort. The Magazine club is to Bethany what Young Mems Institute or Free Library is to New Haven. It is a boom to & small town with homes well scattered among its hills and plains and valleys. Among the features of the entertain- ment were the following: Miss Leta Beecher, daughter of the late Edward Beecher, who was a prosperous farmer we'll known for miles around in his day, gave one of her bright entertain ing recitations. Tyler Davidson, whose father, s. G. Davidson, is one of the towns leading men, read cute and instructive essay on The Magazine Club" Treat Johnson gave an essay on Civil Service Reform full of cru dition and telling points. He is one of the young men now at Yale. Edwin Pardee and a helper gave a tableau in costume representing a darkey caught in the act of stealing watermelons f,sN1 lon tnl, st,nly, ,ffts was excellent and the second part of the tableau, representing the "tussle" and the scramble for liberty brought down the house. Mr. Bush of Nauga- tuck sang some fine solos. A Nauga- tuck musical piano expert gave some excellent exhibitions of his skill. Miss Beecher and Miss Daisy Woodward also gave piano solos, which were very pleasing. A ta.bleau, The Last Chance" was also given, representing an eager and charming maiden, Miss Annie Hitchcock, about to take advan- tage of the Leap Year and propose, the clock hands indicating that only two minutes of Leap Year QS96) remained, and MT. Tyler Davidson personating the guileless youth, upon whom the maiden had matrimonial intentions. Another tableau, "Hiawatha and Min nehaha," was also well done by Miss Kerr of Woodbridge and Treat John son, president of the Magazine club, in appropriate costumes. Another eXcel- lent tableau, representing Priscilla and John Alden,' was given by Florence Woodward of Bethany and Professor Clingan. All the tableaux costumes were hired in New Haven. and the piano also.
 The hall was filled to overhowing and people were present from Beacon Falls. Ansonia, Naugatuck, Seymour and Woodbridge, besides many from Bethany.
 MT Perry, the owner of Perry's hail. is well remembered in New Haven he being a brother of Horace Perry the carpet merchant, and having been an assistant at the Perry store for many years. For the last year or two he has been living on his farm in Beth any, which he purchased about sixteen years ago. His many friends will re- gret to learn that his health, which has been poor for two years, still continues much impaired. 5l

Why Attempt to Cure

Catarrh by the use of so-called blood remedies? That catarrh is not caused by blood troubles is self-evident when you reflect that attacks are always due to sudden climatic changes or exposure and occur most frequently during the winter and spring, though the blood is as pure then as in summer or fall. A remedy which quickly relieves and cures the catarrhal attacks has been found in Ely's Cream Balm

Winter Term Opens-Large Attendance
 Night Schools Open.
 Yesterday once more the groups of sweet school lassies were seen de- murely vending their way to and from the different school buildings Yester- day another winter term commenced in most of the schools with a very full at tendance. At the Dwight street, Edge wood avenue and Gill street schools the seating room was inadequate for the number of pupils in attendance. This overcrowding will be somewhat reliev- ed when the new Roger Sherman school is opened. Reports from the different schools indicate that all are in a very prosperous condition. The second half of the presnt term of the night schools began last night. It will last till Feb ruary 26. There will be no changes in the list of instructors in the schools the present term.

Recommendations of the State Health
 Bol.d.
 The report of the state, board of health recommends legislation for the supervision of milk il this state with a view to preventing infection, espe- cially by typhoid fever germs. The board has the 'eco-ds of 13s cases of such typhoid infection of milk through out the country. Another rerommen- dation is in favor of a more complete registration of death statistics. The State Medical society will propose leg islation for grouping examinations of candidates for registration as physi- clans in Connecticut and compelling all such candidates to submit to an exam ination instead of presenting as now a diploma. from certain approved medical colleges. This would put all unregis- tered practitioners in the state upon the same level.

 Derby, Jan. 4.-Mayor Chaffee, nine aldermen and other officials of the new municipal government were installed in office at noon to-day. The ceremony took place in the city hall. Mayor Chaffee and City Clerk Larkin admin istered the oath to each other, and the latter to the other officials.
 The ceremony was supplemented by a session of the aldermanic board. The only business transacted was the unan- inous vote to rescind Mayor Atwater's S exclusion act. This act was passed in March, 1895, and it prohibited the two reporters who had published the report that Mayor Atwater had placed all the city insurance in his own agency, from attending aldermanic meetings.
