tional W. C. T. T.?
1t exists for the purpose of educat-
ing the young; forming better pub
lie sentiment, reforming the drinking
classes, transforming by the power of
Divine grace those who are euslaved
by alcohol, and securing the entire
abolition of the liquor traffic.
1t has, also, through the clear vision
which has come to its membership of
the basic unity of all reform forces and
the INTERPOLATION of each evil with all
other evils, widened its scope until
there is no wrong against which it has
not lifed up its voice, nor good with
which it is not allied. 1t is interviewer
with all of humanity's best hopes, and
is constantly looking for and hasten
ing the coming of the day of God"

NOT few of the American people
regret to see disposition on the part
of Admiral Sampson and his friends to
hog Schley's victory at Santiago.
Commodore Schley was the officer who
first ran Cervera into the harbor OF
Santiago and was about to dash In af-
ter him, when Sampson, under orders
from Washington, called halt. Samp-
son was promoted over Schley because
it was admitted he would do the bid
ding of the authorities at Washington,
whereas, it was doubted if Schley could
be held by the authorities when he
reached the neighborhood of the enc
my. Schley being a sailor does not
realize how necessary it is to the ad-
ministration that the war shall be spun
out until after the tall elections. Con-
sequently, he is not in favor at Wash
iugton. The taking of Havna has
been put off until fall for similar rea-
sons. 1t is hoped that the roar OF
guns about that city will attract the
attention of the people of the United
States away from domestic concerns.

Grand Opera House. "PINK DOMINOS."

The Grand Opera House Stock com- pany opened it's summer season yes- terday with two very excellent per- formances. They presented the old success, "Pink Dominos," comedy full of brilliant situations and sparkling wit. The action is rapid and the plot, which is an old one in comedy, is skill fully developed.
 The managers of the houseshave been very fortunate in securing such an ex- cellent company. All have been seen here before in various companies, and several are well known to New Haven audiences. The acting of the company is above the standard of that usually presented by stock companies, and it is safe to say that it is the best that has been seen at the Grand this season. The company certainly deserves slc- cess, and if it maintains the standard set last night will undoubtedly secure it. It would be difficult to say who did the best work, since all the acting was of uniform excellence.
 The company includes the following members, among others: Miss Ethel Brandon, late of California Stock com pany; Miss Fanny Gantis, Charles

 Haven's Venerable Men.
 One of our oldest and most esteemed townsmen, William Atwater, father of William J. Atwater. died last evening at o'clock at his home, Trumbull street, aged ninety-two years and elev- en months. His illness, which was of brief duration, was due to sudden and general breaking down of the vital powers. He was up and about the house as usual, four days ago. Up to within few months ago he enjoyed very good health for man of his ad- vanced age For some time past he had been gradually failing, but last Friday he became much worse and lapsed into 8 state of inconsistencies, from which he did not rally. He was one of the best known old citizens of New Haven and was the largest con- tributor to the fund that built the Humphrey street Congregational church. He was a native of Hamden and resided there on the farm until he was about twenty-four years of age, when he removed to New Haven and engaged in the business of a carpen- ter builder in which he continued for many years. He erected many houses in this city and vicinity. In the latter part of his active business life his two sons were connected with him in the business. He gave up business many years ago, having won a competency and had since then lived a life of quiet, IIN tTtyi6 3,o1p ried. His first wife whose maiden name was Ford, died in 1878; his second wife, who was 8 Clarke, died in 1888. He had resided for the last twenty-five years on Trumbull street Previously he lived for many years on Grand avenue opposite Atwater block, in a block which he erected Three children were born to him, Henry J. Atwater, Mary and William J. Atwa- ter. The two first named are dead. The son, Henry J.. was for many years prominent merchant and business man here The daughter Mary was the wife of Herman D. Clark, the Grand avenue merchant. William J. is the well known real estate owner and cap italist The deceased leaves seven grandchildren, and six great grand children. He was a most genial and kind old gentleman and up to near the last was mentally acute and vigor-. ous as well as well preserved in bodily strength. A few months ago the old gentleman was photographed together with his son, William J., his grandson Edward T., the Grand avenue mer- chant, and his great grandson, son of Edward l., in all four generations on the male side.
 The funeral services will take place from his late residence, No. Trum bull street, on Wednesday at p. m. Rev. Mir. Luckey, who is in Poughkeep sic, will return this evening and will officiate at the services.
