It is possible that the United States
has obtained such reputation for
cOvetOusness that the people of neigh
boring countries fear to permit their
rulers to visit within her borders.
That is the explanation which is being
offered in the case of President Diaz
of Mexico. The president was invited
to attend the fall festival in Chicago.
He accepted the invitation and his con-
gress voted him an allowance of $780,
600 for expenses. He has since changed
his mind and Will not come. It is said
that his people fear that he would be
induced to barter away his country.
1t seems improbable that this is the
true reason A more plausible one is
that he fears to leave the country lest
q revolution break out during his alb
sence. There would be little in Mexico

IN 1855 AND '56.

The rain last night and this morning nroyed to be, like nearly all of it's pred ecessore short lived and inadequate. The gauge at Trinity college showed a total of 47-100 or about half an inch from midnight to 9 o'clock this morn ing. By 10 o'clock the signs of clearing off became unmistakable and soon aft erward the blue sky and flooding sun shine, of which we have had for a month or more such succession with pleasant days, once more appeared in full style.
 Rut it would be unwarranted to con- clude, from that situation, that we are to have a mild, "open" winter. The December of 1855 was mostly pleasant one. but rain storm on Christmas day turned into sudden and sharp freeze" and the winter of '56 proved to be cold one. The snow remained till April.
 The ice on the trees on the brilliant morning following that frozen rain storm, made the most splendid and magnificent spectacle ever seen in ice end-sun effects. Nothing equal to it is remembered. Yesterdays Hartford Times,

THE NURSES FAIR.
Successful Event at the Graduate Club
 on Trumbul Street

Successful Event at the Graduate Clut
 on Trumbull Street.
 | The Connecticut Training School l Graduates club are holding fair at their club house, 22 Trumbull street.
 The fair opened yesterday afternoon
 and continued until o'clock last even- | ing, having a very good attendance
 during those hours.
 | The Graduate club for the Nurses, by whom the fair is being held, was incor- 1 porated this week and should prove an
 excellent institution. Although the l Connecticut Training school is the old
 est in the United States, it was one
 of very few that has not had Grad uate club for its nurses and from pres I ent indications the club should be a | success.
 | Any graduate of the school is well
 come there at any time to rest or if de- sired to remain over night The club will be especially welcome to out-of- town graduates who should have occa- sion to pass through New Haven and should have two or three hours to spend in the city. They could go to the
 club. meet old friends and be free and easy while they stay in New Haven.
 The officers of the club which were elected this week are Mrs. Burwell president and Miss Laura Wells secre- tary. Other officers will be elected soon. A
 The house at 22 Trumbull street makes an ideal one for club house, being large and pleasantly situated. There are twenty eight rooms in the building, all of which are spacious and comfortable. It Is the intention of the members to turn one of the large front rooms into reading room, having on file all the local papers, the monthly magazines and other periodicals.
 The house looked very pretty last night, being trimmed with smilax palms and cut flowers kindly loaned for the occasion by Champion and Moore. Around the different rooms were fancy articles of all kinds, such as sofa pill lows, fancy work, hand painted dishes, etc. This part of the work was in charge of Miss Armstrong and some of the other nurses taking an active part in the fair were Mrs. Burwell, Miss Ab- bic Burr, Miss Flang. Miss Hodge, Miss Lanfear, Mrs. Newton Cox and Miss Peck. There was a splendid supper served during the evening and alto- gether the fair was great success.
 It is hoped that there will be large attendance between the hours of and 9, when the house will be open to- the public.
 The merchants were exceedingly gen. erous in making contributions to the fancy and refreshment tables. Among those who gave to the promoters of the affair are the firm of Gamble & Des- mond. Howe & Stetson, Charles Mon- son & Co.,, Edward Hall, N. F.. Fuller ton, Bradley & Smith, Welch's, John- sons, Schoenberger, Markle, Adams Coe & Jenks, Mendel & Freedman, S, & Thompson, Gilbert & Prindle. Con- tributions of money were received from Mrs. T. G. Bennett, Mrs. Francis Bacon. Mrs. George B. Farnum Mrs. Gold smith, assistant superintendent at the hospital; Mrs. Quintard, former super lntendent. now of St. Luke's, New York, and Miss Robinson of the same hospital.
