New York, Jan. /, 1897,

New York, Jan. l, 1897.
New York To-day became the second
city of the world. with Robert y. Van
Wyck as its mayor. AT the City Hall Il
large crowd gathered early to witness
the induction of the new mayor. Mayor
Strong transacted a few last matters
of routine. Nearly all the old members
OF Mayors Strong's Cabinet dropped in
to say goodbye. Floral pieces were
strewn in every direction 4 tiger, In
yellow and black immortelles, resting
in bed OF roses, was one of the mos,
noticeable decorations.
AT ten minutes to u o'clock Mr.. Van
Wyck entered the Office. He was
greeted by Mayors Strong. Gleason
and Wurster. The four men chatted
some time and the big crowd of Of
flee holders and ex-ofiice holders made
circle around them. Amout one min
ute before twelve, Mayor Strong said
"Mr Van Wyck, the people of this
new city, made up of five boroughs and
3,oO0,000 people, have decided that you
should be the first mayor and descend
from your position as Judge to as
sumo the position OF magistrate.
My impression is that this old city
In which You and have lived for abou,
the same number of years, this old
city of New York that is passing away
will contribute $4,000, 100000 worth OF
property to the new city OF which YOU
will be mayor; 100000, 900 of banking
| stock and 81 900, ,000, 900 of dcposits And
you will take charge of this little bo-
rough along with the Others and you
will always feel, 1 know, that it is the
brightest little jewel in the cluster OF
five. You have been chosen to he
mayor of one of the largest cities in
the world. I congratulate you. and
welcome You as mayor OF Greater New
York"
Mayor Van Wyck. in reply, said:
The people have chosen me to br
mayor. ! received the Office from them
and TO them / will answer"
Then after n great shaking of hands
me ceremony was completed, and the
administration of Mayor Strong was

The annual New Years Day rccep.
ifon of the Young Mems Christian AS
sociaiion last night was the most sue.
cHssful in the history of the assoria ton,
The spacious room were Handsomely
decorated in holiday attire and nothing
was left undonc to make the event one
to be long remembered by those who
were fortunate TO be present. The hour
set for the programme to begin was
$40 O'Clock, hut long before that time
the large throng OF visitors began ~
arrive. At the head of the main stair
'waH were stationed several of the
members Of the association, who acted
as registrars and as each guest ar
rived he or She registered their name
ON a card given them f5r that pur-
pose, and as each signature was sub
scribcd the new guest was present tod
with miniature triangle of red card
board, which was worn during the
evening. This very appropriate idea
was established by Professor Ward.
the gymnasium instructor, who ycster-
day returned from Washington, where
the same idea was carried tFu. at the
\. NJ. G. y. reception there
The first event Of the evenings en-
tertainment was the game OF baske,
ball. which was played by two teams
from the association in the gymnasium.
The teams were made up as follows:
