A TALK ON CATALAN CITIES"
O,a of
of the winter was given last evening by
Mr. and Mrs. Arthur VOORHEES, Brown at
the Propylaeum. A hundred or more of
their friends were invited to an illustrated
lecture on Italian Cities" by Mr.. Elijah r.
Kennedy, of New York. The guests were
seated in the west parlor after being re-
ceived by Mr.. and Mrs. Brown in the broad
hall. Mr.. Brown introduced Mr. Kennedy
in a few words saying that he is a man
of business, who has travelled extensively,
and Mr.. Kennedy at the beginning CT his
talk said that it was because of a crowded
compartment, while en- route to Italy, that
he and Mr.. Brown were thrown together
and began their acquaintance and friend
ship. IL was because OF this mutual inter-
est that Mr.. Kennedy chose the lecture,
which he gave. The pictures were thrown,
by means OF a stereOpticon. on canvas some
in black and white and others in cOlors
and they were accompanied by an inter-
esting description given by Mr.. Kennedy.
Most of the pictures were taken by him
with his camera and a few he had made.
The trip began with the tour into Italy and
the first pictures were of the scenes from
the car windows. They were clear and dis
tlnct and or an agreeable size. They showed
the rivers mountains and tunnels, the
houses and fields and the castles surmount-
ing many of the seemingly inaccessible
peaks. The first stop was at Venice and
here the famous waterways, palaces, gOn-
dOlas, bridges and prisons were represented.

the scenes visited, each with It's own pecul-
lar points of interest and beauty, and the
speaker with his pictures gave those who
had never been there an enjoyable trip and
for those who had seen all of the places it
brought out recollections in detail of the
many pleasures they had experienced. The
finale of the series was of the Bay of
Naples when Mr.. Kennedy's party went out
in a boat on a moonlight night and sang the
Star-spangled Banner. As their voices
ceased they heard persons on another boat
