PASSED OFF PLEASANTLY.
The Children's Fresh Air Excursion

The Children's Fresh Air Excursion by
 the City Mission.
 The City mission Fresh Air Excur- sion" arranged for the first part of last week, but twice delayed on account of the rain, finally passed off very pleas antly on Saturday. The day was spent at Mansfie1d's Grove, where Charles R. Bartlett has been In charge for the past nineteen years, and where also the Fresh Air Excursions of the City mission have always been made well come with free use of the grove and its convenient tables, swings, ice water, etc.
 Soon after reaching the grove family groups were gathered for lunch about the tables in all parts of the grove, af- ter which came the serving of cake and cream free to all who had invitation cards to the excursion and also to many others, The cream table for the Sew ing school children was served under direction of the lady missionary, Miss $, J. Hume. assisted by Misses Adams, Landfear and Eliot, and David r. Can- dee, janitor at the City Mission hall.
 
 and Mrs, D. B. Horton, Mir. and Mrs. Edward Myrick and Walter H. Perry. Fourteen gallons of ice cream had been provided, in part by donation from Haufe Brothers and Henry Hillman with an abundance of cake for all, giv- en in part by Roots bakery. Seventy-one of the boys and girls of the two hundred or more connected with the mission sewing school had | been neither absent nor late at the weekly sessions of the past half year from January to June To each of them Miss Hume had given double car ticket and an extra cream card to be | used for their friends, and also boat ticket for trip upon the sound. Cap | tain Herbert Baldwin now has his large and convenient launch stationed at Mansfeld's Grove, and during the day A. number of trips were made by the honor-scholars along the shore and out the Cow and Calf' rocks and light l buoy.
 Before leaving the grove MT. Perry of the Yale Divinity school, who is as- sistant to Rev. MT. Mossman for the summer. entertained the excursionists with several recitations. The return was made at 3 o'clock and all reached home safely before the evenings storm l The expense of the mission sewing | school on this excursion was met iron the Children's day offering of the Unit cd church for the Fresh Air Fund The necessary teaming for the trip was provided by the Smedley company | without charge.
 Rev. MT. Mossman has general charge of the mission fresh air work and asks that funds be sent to him to provide fol the weekly excursions already arranged for the months of July and August.

THE TROUBLE AT SARGENF'S
WHAT PRESIDENT J. B. SARGENT SAID LAST EVENING ABOUT

Discussed the Possibilities Of a Strike
 and Said That He Did Not Know That
 One Had Really Taken Piace-Result
 circumference Between Committee and
 HtmseIf-He Would Not Agree to an
 All Card Shop.
 President J. B. Sargent, of Sargent & Co., where it is reported strike of the buffers and polishers has taken place, talked about the matter yesterday af ternoon to a Journal and Courier re- porter. MT. Sargent didn't seem to think that the talk of the men amount ed to much, and certainly it didn't worry him in the least, for he said he really did not know whether or not there was going to be any strike. He said he took it for granted that the men had a grievance or two when they left the shops yesterday in body, but that, as far as he knew, the result of the conference between the strikers .com- mittee and the company held yesterday morning and afternoon was satisfac- tory to the committee.
 "They presented number of griev- ances," said the well known manufact- urer, land all but two of them were scratched off the list as settled. The men wanted a minimum scale of $2.25 per diem, and as some of the men. new ones especially, don't earn half that, why, of course, we wouldn't make any concessions in that line. Further, the men wanted an all-card shop. This was the last thing on the list. We have been in the habit of employing union and non-union men, just as they came and proved satisfactory, and told the committee that we couldn't be moved on that line either. They then went out, and to me it looked as though the committees men were not very much disappointed. We had here to-day MT. Flynn. the fifth vice president of the International Iron and Metal Workers union. of New York, who was appealed to by the committee. There were two or three other union leaders present" Mir. Sargent said that three-quarters of the men did not know what they were striking for.
 The men who quit yesterday, and who are nearly all Italians, held a meeting last night and heard the report of the committee, and it was decided to stay out for few days, at least. and it was stated that nobody but the buffers and polishers would be included in this | number.
 Mir. Sargent was asked if he could tell how many men would strike if a strike was ordered, and he said that he didn't know. He was asked how many quit work yesterday, and replied that he did not know The question of the recent strike at sargents was discussed, the men seem- ing to think that fair settlement had not been made. MT. Sargent said that he has left the scale-ofwages plan to his foreman, MT. Shaw. who will prob- ably make matters satisfactory to al of the men.
 The meetings of the men were held last night in St. Aloysius hall and in St Michael's church on Wooster square They were we'll attended.

MARY FOX RECOVERING.

Girl Thought to Have Been Assaulted
 in West Haven, Much Better.
 Mary Fox, the eighteen year old daughter of Thomas Fox of 707 Grand avenue, who was supposed to have been assaulted in West Haven Saturday night and who was taken to the hospital yesterday morning, was reported as much better last night with the chances in favor of her leaving the institution in few days. She complained that a man got off the car from Savin Rock with her Saturday night and after standing on Campbell avenue near Brown street for a short time they got in an argument and he punched her in the face. This she declares he followed up with a kick in the groin, afterwards throwing her over fence nearby. She was found few hours afterward and put on a car for this city and later went to her home. She complained of feeling very badly and was taken to the hos pitaL. The condition of the girl when she reached the hospital was such that Deputy Coroner Philip Pond 2d was called with the purpose of taking an ante-mortem statement When he reach ed the hospital Miss Fox was much bet ter, and although she gave a statement it probably will not be called an ante mortem statement, as the girls condi- tion will be much improved in day or two that she will be able to leave.
 Frank A. Rutz of 129 Washington avenue was arrested, charged with causing the injuries of the girl and he is now held in the West Haven "iug'' to await the result of the injuries. He is held in bail of S5,000, which up to late hour last night had not been furnished,

OLEO NEAR FATEFUL DAY
VOTE ON THE TAX BILL Is EARLY
EXPECTED Iy SENATE
Chinese Exclusion Bill Next on the
Calendar for Consideration, and
Little Doubt of It's Passage
Is Entertained.

WASHINGTON, March 30-The friends
of the oleomargarine bill hope to secure
a vote on the measure on Tuesday Of
the present week, and as soon as it shall
be disposed of the Chinese exclusion bill
will be called up.
According to the present understanding,
Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, who was
largely Instrumental in framing the exclu-
sion bill, will make the first presentation
of its merits to the senate. He will be
followed by other supporters Of the bill,
and it is the hope of Senator Penrose,
who has charge of the measure, that the
senate will be able to conclude it's con-
sideration within ten days after it is
taken up. There is no pronounced op-
position to the bill as a whole, but an
effort will be made to amend it in some
particulars.
There are still several speeches to be
made on the oleomargarine bill, but it is
the general understanding that the dis
cusson will be concluded during the first
half Of the week, If not by Tuesday.
1t is expected that the Indian appropri-
alton bill and the river and harbor bill
will be reported during the week. Both
are subject to immediate consideration
even to the extent of displacing other
bills, but it is not believed that either
Of them will be used to deprive the Chi
nese bill Of it's charce for consideration.
The Philippine government bill will al
so be reported, probably tomorrow, but
it's consideration by the senate necessaIi-
ly will be postponed for some weeks.

VEST WEAK
VETERAN SENATOR BARELY ABLE
TO WALK, BUT HIS MIND
REMAINS STRONG
USES LIQUOR AT HIS DESK
senator HavvIey, Too, Has Become
Feeble and Grown QueruIous and
His Friends Endeavor to In
duce Him to Resign.
FROM THE GLOBE BUREAU,
Washfneton. ID G..

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 3O.-sena-
tor Vest of Missouri, is becoming very
feeble; but it is only in body. He never
walks now without an attendant, who
supports him. He has shrunk away to a
mere skeleton. Wnen he speaks in the
senate he is obliged to support himself
by holding with both hands to his desk,
and there is always someone on either
side to help if needed.
But the little mans mind is as vigorous
as ever and his speech against the ship
pins subsidy bill was by far the strongest
on his side of the subject During it's
delivery, which LASTED more than two
hours, Vest had frequent resort to a
small pocket flask. There was no effort
at concealment. He would quote some
thing from report and ask tnat it be
sent to the desk and read by the clerk.
While this was being done he would
take his seat and take a drink from the
bottle. Rested and refreshed he would
continue to pour hot into the subsidy
plan.
Another member of the senate who has
become very feeble is Joseph r. HawIey,
OF Connecticut. Unlike. Senator Vest he
has not retained his brightness Of mind
and cheerfulness Of disposition There is
no one today keener for joke than Vest:
but Hawley is sour and querulous and
appears to have little idea of what is 60
ing on in the senate. He is seventy-six
years OF age and his term will not expire
until 1905 If his friends can prevail unon
MN ne VIII retire before that time.

manner.
Decomposed quartz, pounded on a NOR

a pile Of over SO, 500 in gold nuggets, ar
ranged into grotesquc ornaments.
Nuggets of about the same purity.
and similarly imbedded in quartz, have
been found in the gold fields at other
points indicating the source of the In
dams wealth.
The rush to the gold fields continues
undated, but owing to the great danger
of travelling in the mountains at this
time of the year, and the hardships in
cident to the trip, &e majority of the
prospectorS have located in fringe of
towns adjacent to the gold fields, Boise,
places Here hundreds of men, attracted
to the new gold camp, are waiting until
the trails shall have been worn down
by the more hardy and fearless ones,
whom no hardship could keep out.
Some of the latter have just come out
for provisions. Their stories of the rieh-
ness Of the land have added much to the
Impotence of the waiting throng.
