A gen. eral canvass will be made of the city, both among our houses and stores, by the gentlemen who have so kindly in terested themselves in the financial welfare of this charity.
 At last years public donation day there was raised from all sources over twenty-one hundred dollars, and 1t Is sincerely hoped that New Hayen's gem erous citizens will respond even more liberally this year. The arrangements are in charge of the donation day com tnittee, consisting of the following: Arthus c. Graves, president; Jonathan N. Rowe, treasurer; Henry J. Kellogg, secretary; and also the following mem bers of the executive committee: Frederick H. Brown, Frank B. Walker, Oliver s. White and Burton Mansfield.
 In judging of the charitable activi- ties of this institution, it's needs and the valuable work which it performs, the following extract from the last report of it's secretary, Miss Ellen Strong Bartlett, is interesting and instructive:

THE c1GARMAKERs STRIKE.

The Cigar Manufacturers association The Cigar Manufacturers association at their last meeting unanimously de- cided to adhere to the bill of prices sent to the Shippers union which they consider equitable and just, having agreed to the most essential demands of the Shippers union; viz: Recog- nizing their union, reducing the hours of labor from 10 to 3 hours per day, and an increase of $1 per week in wages and other minor points were also considered.
 There exists no i'll feeling among the manufacturers toward this new born labor association. Seldom has new organization been recognized with such liberality by their employers. A great many statements have appeared in the press which are not based on facts The shippers union has demanded S per week for wrapper and general util- ity hands and claim that the manufac- turers of Hartford pay this price which is in fact, not true. The highest PllNp RfSAQ IVY lllG lIldluldGLuIGTB Ol Hartford for the above work is $8 per week and not $9, therefore our bill full ly covers the highest price paid ir Hartford.
 We must adhere In justice to ali 1T the grading scale of our bill according to ability and experience and appren. tice clause, as we cannot give our cost. ly material to inexperienced hands anC pay them full price for necessary Infer. for work, and as long as our bill Is re. jected by the Shippers union there can be no cigars made in New Haven Consequently our position toward tho cigar maker is that our factories art not working for the simple reason that we have no tobacco shippers and unti the stripping differences are settled wC are in nj position to offer work or con. slider any other matter.

About 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon the fire department was called on bell alarm to the corner of Water and State streets. LA load of peat was on one of Hugh Plunkett's big trucks in the alley way facing Water street, and In some unexplainable manner it suddenly burst into flames.
 The horses were titched to the truck but there was no driver on it, and some passerby promptly freed the horses
 No. 7's fire company quickly extin. guished the fire.
 The peat was to be delivered as soor as the driver returned from dinner, tc the New Haven Upholstering company The load was practically destroyed II is believed that some one must have carelessly thrown either lighted cigar or cigarette butt into the load The matter is now being investigated.

THE FOREST SUMMER SCHOOL.
DETAILS OF UNUSUAL INSTITU- TION AT MILFORD, PA.
Spring Work of the Senior Class in New Hampshire-Six Courses in Practical Forestry.

This year the Summer School of For estry opens on July and will be in ses- sion for a term of seven weeks. This school has probably the most complete equipment of it's kind in existence. The plant is located at Milford, Pa. on high, dry ground about 800 feet above sea level.
 James W. Pinchot has erected num- Der of buildings on his country estate there and has placed them at the dis posal of the school. He has also pro- vided tract of about 200 acres for ex- perimental work. An excellent botani- cal laboratory, a small library and reading room and a clubhouse form part of the equipment. A fully equip ped camp is provided for those who de- sire to live in tents. Besides the 200 acres provided by Mir Pinchot, there are forests in the immediate neighbor- hood which offer excellent opportunities for practical work. One of the Penn sylvania state forest reservations is but a short distance from Milford.
 The forest experiment. station, which | is conducted by the forest school, is fully equipped for instruction in the methods of advanced research work. The office of the station is located in the village of Milford.
 Professor Tourney will have charge of the summer school and Professor Graves will have charge of the junior work. Six courses in practical forestry are offered, which will be conducted by Professors Tourney and Graves, and H. H. Chapman.
 As usual, the first terms work of the junior class will be done at Milford. The work includes a course in forest mensuration which will be conducted by Professor Graves, assisted by MT. Chapman, and course in surveying which will be under the supervision of Professor Tracy and MT. Farnham, of the Scientific school faculty.
 | The senior class of tho forest school seventeen in number, spent the spring term in practical field work at Water vile, N. r., on the tract of 22,O0O acres owned by the International Paper com pany. The tract contains one of the largest bodies of virgin spruce remain ing in New England, and offers ex- ceptional advantages for work of this kind | Considerable time was spent in the making of an accurate typographical map of the Waterville valley, the work being under the supervision of Henry Gannett. chief topographer of the Unit ed States geographical survey. Anoth- CT important part of the work was the practice in estimating, which was taken up systematically on forty-acre tract of standing spruce Several methods of estimating were employed and the fal- lacies of each noted. Finally all the data that had been gathered were sum- med up and detailed plan made for the practical working of the tract. The men leave the school with an excellent equipment for similar work on the gov ernrnent reserves or with private par ! ties.

YAK BORN.

At Barnum & Bailey Winter Quarters.
 Bridgeport, June 11.-A few days ago a yak was born at the winter quarters of the Barnum & Bailey show. It is the first birth of yak in Bridgeport, and according to the attendants at the winter quarters the calf is entitled to wear the label of the board of trade.
 The birth of the yaklet was a sur prise to the attendants. The mother Is full grown but smaller than the aver' age cow. She looks like a cross be- tween a buffalo and COW, with the ex- ception of the long horns, and the long hair which hangs down from her shoulders, sides and tall.
 In the stall next to the calf and the mother is bull yak, whose shagginess and formidable borns make him look as if he would be able to hold his own in a fight.

Professor Phelps Says They Must Not
 Expect Federation.
 Professor William Lyon Phelps, of Yale, who is popular with town and gown, came out in the Yale News yes ierday as friends of the New Haven police. In reviewing the current num- Der of the Yale Literary Magazine he says:
 "The first article in the Notabilia condemns New Haven's finest and speaks of the faculty as in a certain sense their allies. It seems to. me that the only true way to deal with crimes or peccadilloes committed by students is to have the Jurisdiction of the fac ulty begin and end with college build ings and college premises; and that if a student is drunk on the street, or be- comes in any way abominable, he should be haled to prison like any other tough"

THp .BTRTHDAY OF THE FLAG


 Thurdsday, June 14th, wil be the one hundred and twenty-ninth anniversary of the birth of the United States Flag. What an emotion of patriotism swells the heart of every loyal citizen when he contemplates that for more than a century and quarter the flag of his country has foated in honor and triumph, representing the highest principles of government and the noblest impulses of universal brother hood.
 The flag which was created to be the emblem and illustration of bond of unity comprising thirteen stAtes firing ing vast territory along the Atlantic has expanded until It's protection covers nearly a whole continent and extends far across the seas to embrace within its folds the oppressed and degraded of other races of men who were the bondsmen of avarice and power
 Honorable has been its mission; free dom and liberty It's message; human ity it's service; elevation its com munication; authority its duty; sacred It's promises. Beneath it's benignity every birth is noble; every pure aspira- tion is. exalted, and every honest pos session protected. It welcomes the 0p- | pressed of all mankind, exemplifies national virtue, and IS an ever vic torious defense of the wea.
 It Is meet therefore that the nnniver- sary of this noble birth should be hailed with acclaim. Let the rising sun o1 | June 14th be greeted with the shouts | of the multitude, the ringing of bells the salutation of artillery as from every ! housetop, steeple, mast there shall bt flung to the breeze the beautiful banner of the American people which signifies so much that has been sacrificed ant promises all that should be realized.
 Let every loyal citizen contribute if l the display of the flag his testimony 1 that he stands for honor, purity ant obedience to law.
 Let every man, woman and chile pledge it's faith in the purposes the flat represents and wear token of thei liberty In modest, but certain, bow O. rosette attached to their dress.
 Lessons of patriotism will not be los in recognition of this memorable day The lawless will recognize the re l presentation of authority and the bud ding spirit of patriotism in youthful hearts will be expanded into deter mination to opose foreign or domesti foe.
 The Church and Sunday School ma, well employ the nearest Sabbath to tn day in special exercises of a prope character to show reverence for all tn flag. represents and the schools an colleges in session should devote tn day to patriotic instruction.
 The Grand Army of the Republi submits to all organizations and every individual this proposition of tn recognition of the emblem of tn American Birthright. It suggests the Governor of every State, to tn Mayor of every city, the president o every village, a proclamation announc ing the Day and recommending it's re cognition; and the Press, the might power that sways the people for goot is earnestly sought to publish this ca and to give special notice of the aI preaching day of rejoicing.
