 JERUSALEM
 For education on the subject visit to Jerusalem must be made. It Is a wonderful exhibit, and the guides who show the visitors through the city are most entertaining. The illustrated lectures en route are instructive on Jerusalem, the Ark of the Covenant and wealth of information if one could only retain 1t all!
 The natives whose costumes have not changed since the days of Christ. are there in all their lazy glory-these happy men and women of the Orient. to whom time means nothing and to whom hurry Is a dead letter.
 THE QUEENS PRESENTS.
 The Jubilee presents of Queen Vic toria are exhibited in twenty-four huge cases, and while the display is gor- geous one wonders what she could ever have done with so many jewel caskets, addresses in silver and gold cases, and saddles from India, with g. huge ostrich fan and a state chair of fabulous value thrown in.
 THE PIKE.
 We Americans love to be humbug
 
 can get his moneys worth" on the Pike. There is a joy in being fooled even when we know 1t. so the best at fractions are those of that sort.
 Under and Over the Sea" takes 8 company of fellow travellers in an air ship to Paris and back to St. Louis, in a submarine boat. The illusion is wonderful. The trip on the huge electric elevator in the Tyrolean Alps four thousand feet up a mountain is a delightful humbug. The wonderful effects of distance, storms, floods. skies and clouds. in The Creation the York to the North Pole'' are beyond description.
 Then for getting the breath deli ciousiy shaken out of one. there are those abnormal contriYances' of the abnormal American: The Shooting the Chute" the Scenic Railway" the Magic Whirlpool" arNl the slide in the ''Tyrolean Alps" But of all on the Pike the Hagenbeck animal show is the most interesting. This exhibits g. marvellous revelation of the brain of the animals and mans mastery over them. From the performance on the mammoth cage stage of a little French poodle to the wonderful stunts of the mighty tanned wild beasts, it beggars description
 There are thirty-five attrac- tions on the Pike and it takes S27,50 to enter them all. but a list of seven covers those worth seeing, and the baby incubator, heads the list Did you ever think how very young these little actors begin to take part In the stage before a gaping crowd and earn their livelihood? The tiniest one on exhibition the day of my call weighed two pounds and was a week old. The smallest and youngest wage -earner on earth Too small and too young to be utilized even by our erstwhile milI men of Alabama. Poor baby! working its way into life, just as no doubt it will work its way through life-whicb is as 1t should be. It seems to me an incubator baby should be held as something sacred. especially one who worked its way in a show on the Pike.

In 1865 our associa- ton became society for the burial of our dead and shortly after was called the LLadies' Memorial Association.

SPRING WILD FLOWERS.
Their Late Blooming This Year-It
 May Have Good Effect.

Their Late Blooming This Year-It May Have a Good Effect. Wild flowers in these parts, held back by the long winter and the cold spring, ] are likely to crowd their blooming season into an unusually short period. The hepatica, as usual, was the ear- 'liest to appear after the speckled, malo- dorous skunk cabbagehad exalted it's sturdy horn in the swamps and other damp places. But only few hepaticas were found before the end of the first week of April.
 They were abundant fortnight later when all other flowers were scarce, and they are likely to continue to bloom after the woods and fields are carpeted with the late flowers by which time they are usually almost spent and to be found. if at all, just ready to drop to pieces.
 Soon after the first hepaticas had come to maturity and faded, the bell anemone, the dogtooth violet, the blue wood violet and the spring beauty were found in small numbers. It is many years since these flowers were so scarce at the end of April. A few bloodroot blossoms, which flower is found about

 The baseball fever has not struck this town this spring as hard as it has in past years, and comparatively little is heard on the subject. Some of the

 but nothing is heard from the old Wal lingford team which has flourished here for many years. Last years season
 was not financial success, and noth- ing is doing this year. The grounds on South Colony street are in bad condi- Ition, the grandstand and fence look di- llapidated and much of the latter is missing.

blossoms can pluck them. All over the suburbs oe New York the more beauti- full wild plants are threatened with extinction becaus e of the yearly increasing host of these who gather wild flowers.
 The hepatica seems to be scarcer than it once was. One evidence of this is Sound in the fact that these flowers are relatively plentiful in spots which have recently been cleared and where for years past the flowers have bloomed and died undisturbed, propagating 1 their kind. Perhaps the scarcity of the bloodroot is to be traced to the ravages
 of flower lovers.
 l Both wild flowers and shrubs have
 suffered because of the introduction of nature study into the public schools. The instruction thus far has interested children to the point of making them
 ruthlessly gather all the wild flowers that show their heads and cruelty dis 1 figure shrubs and blooming trees. It
 has not gone so far as to instill into the minds of thousands of children a re- spect for the perennial beauty of 1 shrubs and wish to perpetuate the
 wild flowers by sparing some of the
 blossoms for seeds.
 1 Some suburbanites make it rule to
 spare a considerable number of wild
 blossoms and to take into private grounds each year and establish in a suitable habitat a few native wild plants such as are likely to become ex- l ltinct with the growth of ruthless
 population. The bloodroot the he-
 patca, the rare and beautiful cardinal
 flower, found only in a few places in
 the suburbs, the wild flag and other
 lovely denizens of woods and fields are likely thus to be preserved for another
 generation.-Ne York Sun.

the upper suburbs of New York in only a few spots, appeared after the third week of April.
 At the same time the towering shrubs have held back their blooms. The one most missed in April is the spice bush, which usually fills the lower parts os the woods with a pale golden rain, and seems to initiate, as nearly as may be, the April atmos- phere itself.
 A few days of warm weather in early May will clothe the earth with a be- wildering variety of blossoms that in normal seasons do not ordinarily blossom in large numbers at the same time. The spring beauty, which fully deserves it's name, but is despised be- cause of it's commences, has naturally a very long blooming season. This year 1t will be found in company with blossoms that usually have the bulk of their season earlier or later. The field violets have not yet shown themselves, and the white wood violet, the yellow wood violet and the wild geranium are yet to come. The dogtooth violet are now near the height of their season. They are the dear-delight of children, and the childish name for them, yellow bell, is pretty and appropriate. It has been suggested that these flowers, which are bulbous, could be successfully forced like tulips, hya- einths and other plants and they would certainly attract much attention in the windows of the florists. What , the wild flowers might do with forcing
 may be guessed by the experiment. of a suburbanite who had three of four varieties blooming indoors this year many weeks before the first hepatica showed itself in the woods.
 | A mild winter followed by an early spring has a forcing effect upon the wild flowers. There is some reason to suppose that the present combination of a long and severe winter and a. late, cold spring has some effect in strength ening the flowers. Their blooming season is delayed and their period of rest heightened, so that the plants
 have. perhaps a better chance next year.
 | A short blooming season is also favor able to wild flowers, in that it shortens : the period in which local lovers of the

A BIG ATTRACTION
COMING TO THE HYPERION
 THEATER NEXT WEEK.

George w. Lederer's New Company of
 1850 People in the New Musical Play,
 ssThe thernersY--Appears Here for
 the Last Three Nights of the Week.
 No summer theatrical season would be complete without a musical comedy production by George w. Lederer and New Haven theatergoers are to have the first opportunity of seeing his new est offering, "The Southerners," at the Hyperion theater on Thursday May 19 The engagement will be for three days
 InsThe Southerners" MT. Lederer promises a distinct novelty. The book is by Richard Grant and Will Mercer, both new as librettists, and the score is by Will Marion Cook. The scene is laid in Louisiana in 1880, a period per hitting of much fanciful costuming, which Lederer is sure to take full ad- vantage of. There is a plot, of course, no musical comedy would be complete without one, and it is supplemented with catchy melodes and dainty Tyres that are promised to finger in the mem- ory of auditors long after the piece has departed.
 This manager has been introducing novelties in the musical comedy line Sc many years that an audience always expects something entirely new and diff ferent from him in the way of features, and "The Southerners" he believes he has kept upto his previous record. He promises much in the way of special faetures, some of the most novel being a sSquirrep number, the "Kissme Bal let" and sensational barbecue scene.
 Ellie Fay returns to musical comedy in this production, having role par ticularly well suited to her talents. As a sweet young Southern bud, a pert soubrette, and Irish laborer and mid shipman she will have much opportun- ity for the display of her versatility.

Undern1uSIinS. DeceptionS That Do Not
 0ocoiuo

TT seems strange to US that any manufacturer or 4 retailer should think he could fool women by
 representing trashy muslin underwear 10 them as
 "dainty and elegant" Don't they think that wom- en see for themselves ? Don't they think that women KNOW?
 And yet, season after season, we see the same
 old tricks practiSed to bring some imitatorS under
 muslins within haiIing distance of the Malley stan dard.
 For instance-one of our specialties is the draw CTS we sell at sec. In variety, in quality of ma terial and in general character, these cannot be duplicated by any retailer in this city to sell at a
 profit for less than 75c. And the retailers know well enough-they've had the benefit of our teach ing for many years.
 Thesame thing is true of our soc corset covers, our dollar nghtgowns, our dollaranda-half skirts. our 25c chemiSes and half dozen other numbers How do the imitators meet these values There are several tricks that will deceive any one but woman. One is to use an inferior grade of muslin and "pinch out'' penny here and there by emitting the finishing of a seam or row of in sertion. But the favorite is to reduce the cost slightly by ''skimping" the sizes. Two or three inches cut from the fullness of nghtgown, or an inch or so from its length makes more difference in price than you would think. We have no part in any such frauds. We have no garments that are not cut as wome cut them when they made their undergarments themselves, and finished with the same care and thoroughness. And still we sell for lower prices than is asked for some of the trash.
 Of course we sell more than all the New Haven stores combined. Under these conditions it would be strange if we didn't.
