OPENING OF ST. FAITHS HOUSE
New Cottage on Dixwell Avenue to Re
 lieVe CrOWding

New Cottage on Dixwell Avenue to Re- lieve Crowding.
 The opening of the new house of the workers of the St. Faiths mission on Dixwell avenue yesterday afternoon was but poorly attended the indictment weather keeping many of those who would have otherwise attended indoors. The opening was held as announced, however, and quite few well known charitable workers attended. As the house is not the property of the diocese it was not dedicated, but it was formal ly opened with prayer by the Rev. Brin- ley Morgan of Christ church.
 The house, which is but branch of the house on York square and which is to be used mainly for keeping young girls and babies during the winter, is large, roomy and well lighted, and an excellent home for the little unfortu- mates committed to it's care. It would probably be purchased outright by the home but for the fact that it is not de

sired by the directors to acquire any city property, as it is their ultimate idea to establish a large home in the country. Although many were unable to attend yesterdays opening, they did not forget to contribute to the neces- sary furnishings of the home, and large quantities of groceries, household goods, etc., were received.
 The house is to be in charge of Miss Pew, as Miss McGhee, the head of the home, will continue to devote herself to the running of the home on York square.

AT THE ORPHEUM.

Every seat in the enlarged Orpheu1
was taken on Saturday night while
many stood and many were turned
away. The new opera chairs and ele-
waited floor was duly appreciated by
the large audience. The program ar
ranged was excellent, ana the new peo
pie were taken into public favor. This
was particularly true of Miss Drey-
fus, who charmed all with her ease
and grace She combines with a pret-
ty face a good voice, and knows how
to dance. The Awkward Squad" by
Rand, Byron and Rrand, was highly
entertaining and showed that, as fun
makers, they are success.
Some finishing touches to scenery
and the drop curtain, and everything
will be i'm order at this popular play
house. Tonight the same excellent
program will be repeated, and with al
opportunity to rehearse, it win be bet
ter presented than on Saturday even

BLOWN FAR OUT 70 SEA
FATE OF A NATIVE FISHERMAN
OF HAWAII.
Carried Away From Shore Last Thurs
day in a Small Canoe and is Still
Out.

A native fisherman was blown out to
sea in his canoe at Kawaihae, Hawaii,
last Thursday. He is supposed to have
been drowned or to be still battling
with the waves in an effort to get back
to shore. The unfortunate man was
last seen drifting westward and fran
tically striving to make headway
against the high winds.
The fisherman was an aged native
living at Kawaihae bay. He started
out to fish early on Thursday morning
according to custom and was soon seen
to be padding hard towards shore
without making any progress. Almost
a gale was blowing and the little canoe
moved steadily away from land till it
disappeared over the horizon.
The boat has not been seen since
Thursday, but it is thought to be still
atioat with it's occupant, as it was of
the ordinary native pattern and would
not capsize. The old man had little
supply of food and water on board but
must be suffering for drink now if he
is still in his little boat and as the winds
have kept up he is undoubtedly far out
to sea, with no chance for life unless
a passing vessel picks him up.
