 M- c. A. at the Hyperion.
 The boys and men of the physical de- pertinent of the Y. NM. c. A. have re- sponded to the call of the department committee for closing exercises to be given in the Hyperion, with an enthusi- asm that means an interesting and sue cessful event. It has been customary to close with banquet in the gymnasium, but this new form of commencement exercise is appealing to the men and two hundred and fifty members of the de- partnent have been busy for weeks pre- pairing a programme to be given in the Hyperion Thursday evening. April the 18th.
 Commencing with the March of the Pygmies," a fancy march by twenty four members of the ten and eleven year old grammar school boys, and go- ing on up through all grades and class es, the work will not only be illustra- tive, but entertaining. Even the busi- ness men have caught the spirit and such men as w. R. Downs, G. A. Kill born, s. P. Butler, C. c. Smith, Ward Church, 4. R. Kirschner, Harry Hous- ton and many others will take part in a drill to illustrate their Bodybuilding ex- ercises. The various drills by the class es will be interesting, the work on the horse, bar and parallels, will show what a high degree of proficiency our men have reached; the various human pyra- mids are of never-failing interest. Ex- pert work in electric light swinging by Bauman and Hopkins, and hand balan- cling by Pallman and Provost will be features.

 The annual election of officers and d. rectors of the New Haven County Anti Tuberculosis association will be held at the settlement of the association in Wallingford Wednesday, May 1. The time for the opening of the home will be decided upon at this meeting and the rates to be charged to patients.
 Everything is practically in readi- ness for the accommodation of thirty inmates. The corporation grounds are located a few feet from the Cheshire boundary, upon an elevation of about 800 feet, one of the highest points of land in the county. It is beautiful spot for the home of consumptives and tn egrounds will be laid out with all modern conveniences for the treatment of the patients.
 C%% SAA4o OlCFdltQlt lIlG lI6Sn dfT IroaI- ment will be administered to those suf- fering with tuberculosis and the mem bers of the association feel confident many cases of the dreaded disease. taken in time, will be cured at this farm. Only those suffering with con- sumption in the early stages will be ad- mitted to the sanitarium, and pbvsj- clans claim that here consumptiyes will not only be cured, but the patients will be taugh to avoid and prevent the spreading of the disease. It will be the only home for consumptives in New Haven county, and many physicians and citizens of the county are deeply interested in the project and have contributed generously to it's cause.
 The association incorporated in 1902 and the legislature in 1903 eppropriat- ed the sum of s25,0O0 toward tn ehone The buildings on the grounds are gifts of private persons and the states mon ey Will be used for the case of fhe grounds.

I- ready s6cOoo has been expended in buildings, and donations are. coming ifl from different interested people, con stantly.

MIR. MELLEN POINTS THE WAY.

When the managers of the railroads learn that they are public institutions, obtaining their powers and franchises from the public, and performing for the public a public service, and when they learn that, while it is right that they should be operated at a profit to their stockholders, it is also right that they should be subjected to a reasonable pub- licity and a reasonable governmental regulation and when the officials, high land low, conduct themselves as public servants, as well as the appointed |agents of business corporations, the an- |tagonism to them which now exists will die out and the railroads will no longer find it difficult to consummate those
 plans which are deemed necessary for
 their full development. The recent ut- terances of President Mellen, of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad, show that some railroad off
 cials at least have come to comprehend the value of meeting the public half
 way in spirit of frankness and good
 will. We are under the impression,
 moreover, that the defects of the rail-
 road management on the side of their attitude toward the public are due far, less to the operating and working rail-
 road men than to the financiers in con trol, and especially to those who have controlled them mainly for the purposes |of Wall street speculations.--W Street Journal.

DIXON GOT DRAW
WITH MANSFIELD
English Papers Tell of
Fast Fight That Went
Twenty Rounds.

Although wrestling has supplanted pu-
6iism. IS regards interest, in England
just now. the fighters IN that country
are busy. The majority of the bruis-
ers' whether they are on the top rung
OF the ladder or not, do not meet much
dllI-euIty IN securing engagements
In spite of George Dixon's repeated
of his intention to return
10 America in the near future, the won
derful colored boxer is still abroad do
ing excellent work and adding consid-
erably TO his list Of victories and bank
account Dixon's last match was on
February % at the Winter Gardens. Ply
mouth where he met Harry Mansfield
of Bristol
1t was only after REPEATED challenges
that the two came together. The con-
test vas one OF twenty rounds OF two
minutes each, with four ounce gloves
for a prize OF 500. Mansfield is generally
considered one Of the best 1ss-pound
boxers in England. and as he met Dixon
at catch weights he naturally had the
advantage by at least ten pounds.
The encounter ==as a draw, but oue OF
the best decided abroad IN years.
