AT THREE TO-DAY.


 Woman's School Association Meeting
 at the Young Mems Institute-A Re-
 port of the Free Play-Ground Work.
 The regular monthly meeting of the Woman's School association will be held at the Young Mems Institute this afternoon at three o'clock. As usual, the meeting is open to the public, and all who are interested in the play ground work are invited to be present. Mrs. J. Kingsley Blake, who is acting as chairman of the playground com mittee during the absence of Mrs. c. s. De Forest, will read report of the first months work. The success of the play grounds has been greater than the most enthusiastic promoters of the move ment could have hoped. The greatest interest has been shown in the organi- zation and development of the plan and the idea has met with sympathy and encouragement on all sides. Visitors to the school-yards are always delighted at the sight of groups of happy chill dren at play, and there are many offers of assistance in the entertainment Of the young people. There has been an outing at Cosey Beach for the benefit of the Zunder children, and there is to be one very soon for the Eaton, The pleasure that these children get out of these simple diversions cannot be over estimated One girl who was seven years old said it was the first time in her life that she had ridden on the cars. Part of the expense of the trip was de- frayed by the pennies that the children contributed of their own accord, and the children of the Eaton school have started fund for the same purpose.
 The bath-tub which Mrs. Henry F. English contributed has been placed in the Zunder school and free bathes will soon be in operation. Various hygienic and sanitary measures have been adopted at both school-yards with most beneficial results. Some of the children have complained of a cruel insistence in the matter of cleanliness, but as the necessity is in truth "a living fact" their plaints go unheeded It is axpect- ed that the baths will accomplish won ders in this direction.
 The children at the Zunder school are older and it is desired to furnish some kind of instruction as well as amuse- ment for them. Steps are being taken to provide something that will interest and stimulate their minds, because it is not the object of the play-grounds simply to entertain the children, but rather to supplement the work of the teachers during the regular school term.
 More money is needed to carry on the work. There have been several lib- eral donations, but as the number of children who come to the yards is steadily increasing, it may be found necessary to provide more supervisors.

YOUNG LADY
Saves Two Lives at Ocean Beach, New

Saves Two Lives at Ocean Beach, New
 London.
 Miss Mollie Prentis, daughter of Charles Prentis, agent of the Norwich line steamers, saved two lives at Ocean Beach, New London, Tuesday, because she was quick to discern the danger of a couple of young friends who were bathing there, and had the courage to go to their assistance promptly.
 The New London Globe says: The persons rescued are Miss Grace Towne and Master Richard Newcomb Young Newcomb is a swimmer but he had not the endurance that could stand the ef- fort required of him Tuesday, when he attempted to accompany Miss Towne out to the raft moored a considerable distance from the shore, for his compan- ion has not yet become an expert in buffeting the, waves that roll in on Ocean Beach. The young people start ed for the raft, but as they progressed the wash of the waves nearly submerg- ed Miss Towne, so deeply did she settle in the water, until in a moment she was well nigh exhausted. Master New comb appeared unable to help himself or Miss Towne, and both seemed un- able to keep their heads above the sur- face.
 At that instant Miss Prentis, an ex- pert swimmer, plunged to their rescue, and succeeded in getting the exhausted couple upon the raft.
