THE DECEMBER HEAVENS.
Position of the Planets During the
 Month-New Moon on the 21st.

Position of the Planets During the
 Month-New Moon on the 21st. The December moon fulls on the 9th has last quartering on the 18th, while
 the new moon comes in on the 21st, and these phases close on the 28th by the moon being at the stage of it's first quartering.
 Urnaus leads in the planetary pro- gramme for the month by being in con- junction with the sun on the 9th. Af- ter that date the planet joins the morning stars and remains a member of that aggrl gation the rest of the year.
 On the 7th. the day after the full of the moon, Neptune is occulted by the moon. Those favored few who have powerful telescopes are the only ones who will be able to see this interesting phenomenon.
 Mars is now in the constellation of the Lion close to the brightest star of that group, popularly known as Rog- ulus, being to the northWard and vest ward of that star. It was from this general locality, known as the sickle of Leo, that the brilliant meteoric showers of November took their de- parture.
 Venus now rises three and a half hours before the sun, which interval at the months close is reduced almost half an hour This shows that the queen of the planets is swinging away from her far western point and moving in toward J +1,; tnt r11, will emerge after the new century has been with us for awhile and take up her position as the most brilliant object in the evening sky. Her role for awhile is not one of great importance, but when she deserts the evening stars she is sure to be missed far more than any of the other planets.
 Mercury, having started on the 20th of November to move away from the sun to the westward, will complete this portion of it's swing on the Tth, when it will be almost twenty-one degrees distant. The planet will remain as morning star until after the. advent of the new year. When the year closes 95 per cent. of the disk of Mercury will be illuminated.
 Jupiter passes from his realm of die tator of the evening on the 14th to challenge his old rival Venus for the of the morning. The early risers in winter mornings after the com ing of the new year will for awhile have a splendid chance to see these two beau tiful brilliants shining fairly close to one another.
 Saturn follows fairly close after his larger brother, as he, too, is in conjunc- tion with the sun this month, on the 29th, and becomes after that morning star On the 2d the planet is in con junction with the narrow disk of the growing moon. These two events are the only ones for the month that are important enough to be mentioned.

YESTERDAYS SALE.

A Large Audience Assured for the
 Symphony Concert Tomorrow.
 As was predicted and expected, there was a large sale of seats yesterday for the concert on Thursday evening at the Hyperon by the New Haven Symphony orchestra, and in spite of the cold dis agreeble rain that continued all day long.
 The telephone in the Hyperion box of flee rang necessarily all day, said Treasurer Peterson last night, so that the sale suffered in no wise from the storm, many who would have come or dering their seats reserved for them instead
 The management is highly gratified at the result of yesterdays sale. as it proves beyond a doubt growing ap- preciation of the orchestra and it's work, and an increased desire on the part of the public to support the or ganization.
 Professor $. s. Sanford, the soloisst for this concert, will, it is now quite as sured, play to a large audience. Good seats are still to be had at the Hyperion box office

Former New Haven Pastor Denounces
 Church Fairs
 The Rev. Dr. E. M Poteat, formerly pastor of Calvary Baptist church in this city, has excited warm discussion in Philadelphia, where he is now a pastor, by sermon preached on Sun day.
 pr. Poteat presides over a large con- gregation at the Memorial Baptist church of the Quaker City. In his morn ing sermon he denounced church fairs, charity balls, etc.
 A hubbub followed this sermon due largely to the fact that rival Baptist church is now running a fair. and is likely to make three or four thousand dollars thereby The pastor of the church says Dr. Poteat is skipping at his people, and he st ltly defends the practice of church fairs and sociables,

She called her son, who lives two doors away, and he summoned Dr. w. ". Wilson, who lives next door, but before the doctor could get to the house the patient expired,
 Medical Examiner Dr. John S. Bar nett was summoned yesterday morning and it was decided that it was a case of heart failure.
