INDIAN SUMNER

The following timely poem was selected for the
column by Mrs. F. p. T.:
INDIAN SUMMER
After the springtime sowing
The restlessness OF growing.
The garnerng and reaping.
Time pauses-and hush
Stilleth the surge and rush
or fevcred lfe. for then
Dear summer cometh creeping
over her earth again.
ON clover meadows stark and brown.
on fields OF stubhle leveed down.
Her waving breath is sweeter
Than the fragrance after rain.
Her touch. lik> mother fingers
After ecstacy OF pain.
But her passing an It's neeter
Than smile in sorrows eyes.
One mellow hour she fingers.
One tender June note tries.
Then leaves n dream to winter,
And. softly sleeping. dies.

WARNING TO HIGH SCHOOL STU
DENTS.

No Diploma Will be Awarded if the
Pupil Receives Condition.
The following letter is to be sent to
the parents or guardians of some of
the seniors of Hilhouse High school:
Dear sir: We wish to call the atten-
ton of parents of our senior students
to the following rule of the board of
education: "a student receiving a
condition in any subject Is not entitled
to a diploma, nor can he be allowed
to graduate nor to sit on the stage at
the graduating exercises with his
class"
The object in sending out this no
tice is to give ample warning of the
consequences Of neglect or of inability
ON the part of our students to do their
work with reasonable degree of pro-
ficiency, and to say with the greatest
regret that on account of low standing
it is possible Cor probable) that your
son Cor daughter) will not be able to
graduate this year. June is not far
away, there are just four months be-
fore graduation, and nothing but the
most earnest effort will suffice to bring
him Cor herr to the required standard.
We know you will agree with us
when we say that the attainment of
culture and of scholarship should be
the aim of a high school, and that If
Is,@yo - T.,
anything whatever,it must mean that a
certain standard of department and of
scholarship has been actually attained.
If it has not been attained it follows
as matter Of course that no diploma
certifying to such attainment should
be given. 1t will, therefore, readily be
conceded that the above mentioned
rule is very just one, and that we
must not hesitate at most rigid en-
forcement of 1t. Students who have
made their schooling a secondary mat
ter to such an extent that they have
fallen behind cannot expect to escape
the uncomfortable predicament caus-
ed by their own neglect, particularly
when that neglect occurs In the face of
the persistent urgings and the repeat
ed warnings of the teachers. Now in
the case of our deficient pupils we hope
by this timely notice, followed as of
course it will be by the regular month
ly reports, to stimulate them to their
| best efforts and thus to avoid the mis-
fortune pointed at by the rule we have
quoted.
We send you two copies of this letter.
Please favor us by returning one of
them signed as indicated. The SUBJ
jects in which your son Cor daughter)
is deficient or low are appended.
| Very truly yours,
MYRON T. SCUDDER,
Principal.

JULIA MARLOwE IN "THE COUN-

The concensus of opinion in New
York and Boston is that Julia Marlowe
has made valuable addition to her
repertory in producing 1.-THE Countess
Valeska," which will be seen In this
city for the first time next Friday night
and Saturday matinee at the Hyperion
theater. In it's original form the play
made a big hit at Berlin. Miss Mar
loves adaptation seems destined to
duplicate the success all over the coun-
| try.
"As You Like IT. will be presented
Saturday night.
Sale of seats opens Wednesday.
Prices, matinee and night, $1.50, 81 and

THE PASSION PLAY.
aThe Passion Play comes to the Fly
perion next week. 1t is reproduced by
| the cinematograph. There will be sing
| ing by a picked choir during the 'ex-
| hibition, with organ accompaniment
and the services of an eminent speaker
| has been secured who will describe the
| different scenes.
SILOTI.
Alexander Siloti, the great Russian
/ pianist, has been secured to give a
| matinee recital at the Hyperion next
Tuesday afternoon, March 10. He is a
| great artist. He has a technique that
| is extraordinary, even in these days
when there are so many players who
are marvels in finger work. His touch
\ ma Qac
| are wonderful in their pearly SMOOTH
ness; his octave playing Is surprising
| in it's fluent clearness. In fact, in the
| technical aspect of his art, he leaves
nothing to be wished for.

Steamer Richard Peck Also to be Re-
paired and Refltted in This City.
A force of about twenty men, includ-
ing machinists, carpenters and paint
ers, who have been at work a month
on the steamer c. H. Northam of the
New Haven line, have completed their
labors and the boat is now in first class
condition for the summer. Yesterday
workmen began to overhaul the Conti-
mental Of the same line. 1T is expected
that the work will take nearly month
and that both steamers will be ready
to take their places on the line on the
first of April At that time the Richard
Peck, which has been the only steamer
running on the line during the winter,
will be laid off and overhauled. AS in
the case of the Northam and Continent
tai, the work on the Peck will be done
at the new dock of the steamboat COM
pany in New Haven. The Northam
will, as in past year, make the MORN
ing run out of New Haven, while the
Peck will leave New Haven at mid

HARD RUBBER COMBINE.
New Corporation to be Known as the

New Corporation to be Known as the
American Hard Rubber Company.
New York, March THE Evening
Post, referring to the proposed 'consol-
idation of the three leading hard rub
Der firms of the country, viz, the In
dia Rubber company and the Butler
Hard Rubber company of this city and
the Goodrich Hard Rubber company of
Akron, Ohio, says:
THE new corporation will be known
as the American Hard Rubber compa-
ny, with headquarters at Nos. 8, IL and
IS Mercer street, this CITY, Fritz Ach-
ieles, president of the India Rubber
company, said to-day:
1--WE are not considering the proposed
combination with the idea of forming
trust to control the output or raise
prices, but simply to reduce expenses
and place the business on a more
healthful basis. The hard rubber bus
mess throughout the country is limited
and under the present conditions the
three firms which will join forces are
working at disadvantage, as each
must have a large number of statesmen
covering practically the same territory
anu HialHlald As'o'oiie9 th"' uiiuSi wa
solidation would be run at great saw
ing. The advance of thirty to forty
per cent. in crude rubber has already
caused an advance in prices, which
would have taken place under any con-
dition. The competition also has been
so close on many leading articles hat
to-day many of them are placed on the
market at less than their actual cost !"
Richard Butler, president of the But
Ter Hard Rubber company, said: I'm
view of the fact that prices have gone
up and indications point perhaps to an
even greater advance, the proposed
consolidation will tend, by a great saw
ing in expense, to keep prices down and
make them at least steady and health
full"
