Y. M. G. A. MASS MEETING.


In these days of canting hypocrisy
it is refreshing, inspiring, encouraging
to find one man, born to the best the
world of power and responsibility could
offer, willing to forsake it all and be-
come even ludicrous in the sight of
those who once did him homage, for
the sake of an ultimate truth which the
world has ever met with ridicule when
not with stones and stripes and cruel
tiXion Such a man is Ernest Howard
Crosby, son of the late DR.. Howard
Crosby of New York, who will speak
at the Grand opera house Sunday at
3:45 p. m. on THE Church and the La
Dor Problem and all laboring men and
all church men ought to hear him.
Eleven years ago Mr.. Crosby was a
member Of the assembly at Albany
with the governorship within easy
reach. He was appointed a member
of the International court at Alexandria
by President Harrison. 1t was during
his residence in Egypt that the great
change in his life took place which has
resulted in giving us one of the most
earnest and independent reformers of
our time. A close personal friend of
Count Tostoi, the great Russian
prophet, and a close student of his
writings, Mr. Crosby may be said to
have made the great Russians philoso-
ply his own. From this standpoint he
witnessed the military despotism of
England in Egypt and learned more

THE MARTUS ESTATE.
Property Sold on Grown Street.

Property Sold on Crown Street.
The property of Theodore Martus on
Crown street was sold this week in the
office of Attorney Charles F. Bollmann,

Martus built his building on Crown

amounting to s2s,275 on the property
besides, the petitioner had unsecured
debts of about $1,000.
The appraisers in making the apprais-
al on the real estate made report that
there was no equity. The sale was
effected Thursday by the trustee, Henry
Fresenius. The property is at 1O1-1O3
Crown street. The equity was sold to
William Kaehrle for $25. He also holds
the third mortgage.
The personal property consisted of
three pool tables, chairs, tables, etc,
and was also sold to Mr. Kaehrle for
5000. These are the entire assets and it
is not probable that the estate will pay
a dividend,

UNCLE SAM ACCEPTS NO HALF
STAMPS

An amusing incident occurred at the
post office Tuesday, when a well-known
resident walked up to the window and
asked the amount of postage necessary
for two magazines, which were ad-
dressed to a soldier in the Philippines.
The magazines were weighed, and he
was told that one would require three
cents postage and the other five cents
postage The man thereunon nlaced
one two-cent stamp on one magazine
and two two-cent stamps and then cut
another two-cent stamp in two and af-
fixed one-half of it to each magazine.
The sender deposited the magazines in
the proper place, but Uncle Sam would
not accept one-half of two-cent stamp
for one-cent postage and the magazines
were held for additional postage

"SAPHO" TRIAL APRIL 8.
Plea Of Not Guilty-The Play Forbidden
in Jersey City.


New York, March 2S.-Before Justice
Fursman in the criminal branch of the
supreme court to-day it was decided
that Miss Olga Nethersole and the other
defendants in the indictment returned
yesterday in connection with the play
of "Sapho" by the grand jury shall be
tried on Tuesday, April 3. Counsel for
the defendants appeared before Justice
Fursman and entered plea of not gull
ty for all four defendants, saying to the
court that he was anxious for a speedy
trial in this case, and yesterday told
the prosecuting officer that he would be
ready for trial on Monday next, but that
this would be impossible on account Of
Miss Nethersoles illness.
Justice Fursman thought that it
would be difficult to get jurors, and said
he would order new panel of one hum
dred. The fact that trial is to be Sc
cured so speedily is due to the fact that
the case was yesterday afternoon trans
ferred from the general sessions calen-
dar to the supreme court, criminal
branch, calendar.
George Sammis, manager of the Acad-
envy of Music, Jersey City, has been no.
titled by Captain Cody of the Gregory
street police station that a production
of the play advertised for the Academy
for next week will not be permitted.
The play that was to have been put on
the boards of the Academy has been adj
vertised in the lower part of Jersey City
as THE Queen of the Boulevard" an
adaptation of Daudet's novel "Sapho."
On Jersey City Heights the same play
was advertised as "Sapto." The lessee

VERDICT FOR sMEDLEY.

Judge George w. Wheeler yesterday
rendered a decision for the plaintiff in
the case of Frederick Smedley against
the Fair Haven and Westville Railroad
company Mr. Smedey was awarded
81, 900 damages. Attorneys P. W. Chase
and John Elliott were the counsel for
Mr.. Smedley. 1t will be remembered
that Mr.. Smedley wac seriously injured
in June, 1899, by being struck by a
Whitney avenue car at the corner of
Whitney avenue and Audubon street.
He was riding up the avenue on a bicy
Gle just behind a dray-load of boxes.
At the corner he looked around the
wagon in front of him, and, seeing no
car coming, started out from the rear of
the wagon to cross the track. AS he
did so he was struck by car which he
had not seen. 1t was brought out in
the evidence that he was not warned by
the sounding of the trolley gong of the
approach of the car. Mr. Smedley was
thrown about thirty feet when the car
struck him. Both bones of the left low
err leg were broken, as was also the
right femur, the latter bone protruding
through the flesh and sticking into the
ground. He also received severe and
painful bruises. He was in the New
Haven hospital from June until Octo-
Der II.

We're congratulated by their friends last
evening on winning the case, which was
considered a difficult one. Both of the
lawyers worked hard to put up strong

y The date was settled upon by the
directors of the State league at their
annual reorganization meeting held in
the Hotel Garde yesterday afternoon.
The date selected for the closing of the
season is September 8.
The meeting determined pretty def
nitely that Hartford will make the
eighth club in the league. A report
which emanated from Hartford yester-
day morning was to the effect that it
had been settled that Hartford should
again enter the Eastern league White
the directors were in session yesterday
afternoon Secretary O'Rourke received
a telegram from William Barney, the
Hartford manager last year, stating
that the report was untrue; that Hart
ford Will enter the State league, and
asking that his application for the fran
chise be placed on file. Barney's appli-
cation was tabled along with those of
H. M. Jennings of Hartford and AL
fred g. Doe of New Bedford. AS 1t Is
known that Barney is after the Balti-
more franchise also, one of the direc-
tors was asked, just after the meeting,
If he thought that Barney's claim to the
franchise would be given preferment.
He Immediately replied that he thought
not, and stated that it would not be
an even thing for the other club were
Barney to secure the Hartford fran
chise in connection with the Baltimore
franchise, for he could then use one
club as farm for the other players.
This sentiment was endorsed by anoth-
er director and it is unlikely that the J
club will be awarded to Barney.
Present at yesterdays meeting were
Reilly and Miller for the New Haven
club, James O'Rourke for Bridgeport,
and as proxy for Jack Chapman OF
Norwich, Roger Conner Of Waterbury,
Manager Bendloss of New London,
Manager Penny of Meriden, and "Jer-
ry'' Denny for Derby. The officers Of
the league last year were unanimously
reelected, viz: Sturgis Whitlock, preGi
dent and James O'Rourke, secretary.
The Derby franchise was awarded to
Denny on recommendation Of President
Whitlock. The time limit for mama
gers within which the file their bonds
of $500 was set for May 1.
An application for Bristol fran
chise was received from James Cray,
but it was withdrawn at the close Of
the meeting. The next meeting will be
held on Thursday next.
