ODD FELLOWS ANNIVERSARY.
Plans for Celebration of the Occasion
 on May 19

Plans for Celebration of the Occasion on May 19.
 Plans have been completed by the To-
 cal lodges of odd Fellows for a grand reception to visiting lodges on the occa-
 sion of the celebra ton of the one hun
 dred and eighteenth anniversary of the
 establishment of odd Fellowship in the
 United States, which occurs on the 18th
 of May.
 To make the occasion a memorable
 and fitting one the New Haven lodges
 recently had their committee extend a cordial invitation to their brother mem
 bers in the Naugatuck valley to purti- cipate in the days exercises. The odd Fellows up the state promptly accepted and will send large delegation here on May 19. The Waterbury lodges are very enthusiastic over the prospects of making it a gala day, and hope to have a full membership in line.
 The programme for the day is very interesting and includes long parade, lodge exercises and banquet, The vis- iting lodges will arrive early on special trains and will be met at the depot by all the New Haven lodges, from which place the lodge parade will be formed. It is expected that nearly 5000 Odd Eel lows will participate in the parade, which will go over long line of march not yet fully decided upon. It Is hoped by the odd Fellows to have the citizens by whose residences the procession will pass enter into the plans to make the day an historical one in Odd Fellowship in Connecticut ard contribute to the success by decorating their houses in an attractive manner.
 After the parade, which will consume most of the morning, the visiting lodges will dine at the various hotels, there being no formal banquet until evening, The early afternoon will be spent in various ways by the visiting Odd Eel lows, most of them visiting East and West Rock parks and other points of interest in open carriages. The part which will be most important and in teresting from fraternal point of view will then follow in new Music hall, on Court street, in the shape of degree eXer- cises instituted by the Past Grand asso- citation of Odd Fellows. The visiting Odd Fellows will probably severely tax the seating capacity of the hall while this part of the programme is being carried out, and it is of vital importance for every member who is possibly able to attend to be there at that time. After the hall has been arranged 1ipht informal bSnollet will conclude the days interesting programme, the visit ing lodges departing for home at it's conclusion on special trains over the division.
 The general and numerous sub-com- mittees are pushing hard to make this the grand success that has character ized I. o. o. F. undertakings in the past.

ENTERTAINMENTS.
IIxperton Thenter.

Hoyt's "A Milk White Flag was presented last night to large audience at the Hyperion, and as usual repeated its former success. All the original scenery is used, and there was added a number of new electrical effects. The company is headed by John s. Marble and Miss Mary Marble. During the third act a number of new and very pleasing songs are introduced, among those worthy of special mention being Lovers Serenade," "The New Pri- vate," Hail to tbe Daughter" Among the specialties introduced were the dancing trio by the Grayson sisters and Little Chip and specialties by Miss Marble. The entire production was up to date.
 HER ATONEMENT"
 It was exciting times during the re- hearsals of Anson Ponds play Her Atonement," which comes to the Fly perion next Thursday for three nights, as one of the principal features in the production is a twenty-ton ferryboat A ferryboat it must be remembered, IS not even as easy to handle as baby elephant. There are theater stages that are mere fat-house bedrooms compared in size with it. The boat Hudson is so wide of beam that it would not begin to pass through the proscinium opening of the average tlleater stage, yet it came and went, and fitted up and down and all around the vast stage of the Acad emy of Music, New York, and with the exception of slight mishap one night, when it crashed through the Academy stage and shook Tammany Hall and other big buildings in the neighborhood so that they seemed to rock on their foundations, it has shown itself nimble and supple in it's new role as if it were a ballet dancer or an acrobat. MT. Bunnell has been obliged to have a staff of carpenters at work strengthening the stage for the twenty-ton boat Over fifty scenes of well known New York localities are shown in Her Atone ment," and the company includes such well known actors as Louis Aldrich, Or rin Johnson, H. J. Gallagher Margaret Robinson, Jessie Busley and two hun dred others. The advance sale of seats has been large. Prices $l, 75 cents and 50 cents.

FoREsTERs CONVENTION.
Arrangements for the Grand Court
 Meeting in Meriden.

Arrangements TOT the GTdllu SOuI Meeting in Meriden. The joint committees appointed tc | take charge of the grand court con-
 vention of Foresters of America to be held in Meriden on May 10 and il are | making extensive preparations for the affair. Hundreds of delegates are ex-
 pected from all over the state. This is
 the biennial session for the purpose of
 electing delegates to represent Connec- ticut at the supreme court convention, which will be held in Detroit, Mich, late in September.
 As one delegate sent to the meeting represents 100 Foresters it will be seen that there are nearly 10000 members in the Nutmeg State. At the same con- vention one delegate is chosen to repre- sent each 1000 members and Connecti- cut will have a strong delegation of twenty members to represent it at the supreme court in Detroit.
 This years convention will interest every member of the order in the state as some very important questions will be decided during the meeting. The programme for the first day will be mostly of business nature, opened as usual by the seating of the delegates, after which the routine business will be taken up. The exhaustive reports of the grand chief ranger, the financial secretary and financial treasurer will then be read and voted upon. The most important measure that will consume the most time is the move to hold a convention each year instead of every two years as now
 The only other matter of importance will be the attempt to revive dead is- sue, being in very bad shape.
 The first days session will be con cluded by a grand banquet at the Win throp hotel, at which covers will be laid for 250 guests, including all the city of flcials of Meriden. Mayor Ives will be the presiding officer of the evening. This banquet is given in honor of the delegates and guests by the Meriden courts, namely, Meriden, Excelsior, Schiller and George R. Curtis.
 The second and last day of the grand court convention will be taken up wholly by the election of officers for the ensuing two years It is in the above elections that much interest cen ters. Most of the New Haven Pores ters now holding offices are candidates for reelection.
 There is much rivalry as regards del egates to the Detroit court in Septem- Der, and their elections will be hotly 
 William Delaney of New Britain is a candidate for grand chief ranger In the fight for the place of the mex. state court meeting Derby and Ansonia have already left their rivals for in the rear

ANNUAL REPORT
Of the Housatonic summer Home.

During the year meetings have been held every two weeks except between August Sd and September 1st. In the beginning of the year the board was fortunate in securing the services of a matron, who had the best interests of the home at heart, who had charge from June 18th until the middle of October. All summer the house was well filled with teachers seamstresses and other worthy working women. Money has been raised the last year by several en- tertainments as well as by the annual collections and gifts from outside friends. With these helps, the mortgage to the Derby bank has been reduced and the expenses of the home paid. The courtesy of the press in publishing an- nouncements and reports the board greatly appreciates and to the other many friends and helpers they extend their grateful thanks for donations of all kinds. Thus with the encouragement of the past year, they begin work for this season, hoping for some better re- suits.

 The anniversary will bring together Odd Fellows from all over the jurisdic- tion. and many prominent officials will be present. Invitations have been sent to all of the past grand masters, and the following have already accepted Freeman M. Brown of Windsor Locks, James Phelps of Essex, Hiram Scott of Rdgefeld, Philip Pond of New Haven, Julius Atwood of East Haddam, Frnd- erick Botsford of New Haven, Charles c. Jackson of Ansonia, Peter L. Gun ningham of Norwalk, John W. Smith of Waterbury, George N Moses of New E. J. J Pond of New Haven, l.. F. Deming of New Haven, l.. H. Stannard of New Haven B. $.

Marigold of Bridgeport, Leo pod De Leeuw of Hartford, David R. filling of New Haven, Lucius II. Fuller of Putnam and John Blair of Water- bury,
 It is the custom of the subordinate lodges on anniversary day to make pres. ents to the home. These gifts are usual ly in the form of cash from the l. o. o. r. lodges, and the ladies of the Rebekah degree furnish bed and table linen. AL ready large number of gifts have been received by Charles B. Ware, president of the home.
 Among the gifts this year will be one from H. J. Johnson of East Lyme, member of Fenwick l l)dge of Essex. The gift consists of rocking chair of an- cient pattern which was brought to this country from England in 1880 by Mat thew Griswold, and has been in the Grswold family ever since. The chair, in spite of having passed 266 years in this country, is in a, good state of pres- ervaton.
 The Odd Fellows of Connecticut have reason to congratulate themselves on the success of their home. The prop erty cost $133OO. The lodges in the state have shown their interest in the project by contributing S4S,000 leaving a bal ance on hand and in the savings banks oi $35,00O.
 The property is now worth about S25,- GOO, and as there are no debts the wis., dom of the investment can readily be seen. No small amount of praise for the success of the home Is due to the careful management of President Charles B. Ware of New London.
 No other Odd Fellows home in the country can compare with Fairview in point of economical management.
