NJ, YORK. September 9.-The most
striking and about the sole feature of the
situation in the financial district today was
the slight furry in the money market. The
developments in that direction were. how
ever. not especially noteworthy in view OF
the fact that tomorruw's money market

with the Rotation Of the New York city

1t seemed TO be the general opinion in

bids for the new bonds would be prof

Dealings in stocks were resumed this

YALE oRPHEUs SOCIETY.

Formation of New Musical Organ ization.
 A musical club has been founded at Yale to be known as the Orpheus So- ciety of Yale University. Its object is the cultivation of an appreciation of serious music in its members and among men in all departments of the university.
 The idea originated with the faculty of the Music school, having been sug- gested by the success of a similar so- ciety at Harvard, which now has a membership of about seventy and is seriously considering a plan for erect ing a large hall for the use of the vari- ous musical organizations.
 Professor Parker, dean of the Music school, has very kindly given the so- ciety the use of a large room in the Music school building, 126 College street. This room contains an excel lent grand piano and a large library of piano scores and other musical works, and will be open to the use of members at all times
 The first meeting was held last night in the club room. At this meeting an informal programme by club members was given.

FOOLED THE PREACHER.
A Doctors Brother Thought Postum
 was Coffee.

A wise doctor found out coffee was hurting him so he quit drinking it.
 He was so busy with his practice, however, that his wife had to write how he fooled his brother, a clergy man, one day at dinner. She says
 Doctor found coffee was injuring him and decided to give Postum trial, and we have used 1t now for four years with continued benefit. In fact, he is now free from the long train of ills that follow coffee drinking.
 ITO show how successful we are in making Postum properly, I will relate an incident. At a dinner we gave, Doctor suggested that we serve Postum instead of ordinary coffee.
 Doctors brother, clergyman, sup posed it was old fashioned coffee and remarked, as he called for his second cup, If you do preach against coffee see you haven't forgotten how to make it."
 This goes to show that well-made fully boiled-Postum has much the flavor and richness of good coffee all though it has an individuality all it's own. A ten days trial will prove that 1t has none of the poisonous effect of ordinary coffee but will correct the troubles caused by coffee. There's a reason" Name furnished by Postum O., Ltd, Battle Creek, Mich.

HAMILTON'S OPENING.
BEA AUTIFUL DISPLAY OF SPRING
 GOWNS,

Skirts, Coats, Waists and Other Gnr-
 ments at the We'll Known Chapel
 Street Establishment.
 The name Hamilton" has become a household word from one corner of the state to the other as the Mecca for ladies who desire to be dressed in the most up-to-date fashion. Hamiitons is the establishment par excellence for all that is dear to the feminine heart in the way of dress. The annual spring opening took place yesterday, and was largely attended
 It was likewise the tenth anniversary of the founding of this establishment which has come to mean so much to the ladies and children of Connecticut and scores of friends and patrons were on hand to extend congratulations and good wishes for the future,
 A glance around the beautiful store soon recalled to one that they were in some revealed "Dreamland' of clothes.
 As usual, the French importations just out of the custom house, and dis played for the first time, are a bit in the lead, but the American productions as shown in the fashion display, are so closely competing in every detail that makes for style, that only judge who has won his spurs by years of service would be qualified to distribute the ; honors. The ladies of this city, and, in fact, of the state, anticipate Hamilton & Co.'s first hints of coming styles as eagerly as the Connecticut farmer watches the mail for his yearly alma mac, and the first notes of the coming season are set in the opening.
 The meagre notice that can be writ ten here gives but faint idea of the magnificent display to be found at the Hamilton stores. And our suggestion is. visit the store, and gaze with your own eyes on the many beautiful gowns, skirts, waists, coats and other gar- ments displayed there.
 In the color effects there is a wide range from the brilliant tones that have made the American beauty so fa- yored to the soft brown tobacco tints which seem just now to be the tone of the early spring styles.
 Aside from the spring-like effect no- ticed at the opening yesterday. which was carried out effectively by the quantities of plams and plants that made the interior of the store sugges- tive of Easter, new feature of electric effects was especially pleasing. Tiny electric light bulbs were displayed in the new long, mahogany cases, and these with fancy colored shades in the pastel shades suggested various lilies and flowers from the hothouse.
 In the underwear department, where was displayed the handsomest crea- tions of the French nuns the tiny col ored lights against the white lingerie was peculiarly effective.

poTTAwAroM1Es's SACRED EN-


 The Pottawatomie Indians on the reservation a few miles north of Topeka held an elaborate funeral cere- mony Sunday afternoon near Nadeau, the Indian village of the reservation.
 The event was the death of Shaw nash, one of tg3e braves of the Potta- watomie tribe who died Friday at the age of 80 years. Shawnash was one of the leading members of the tribe and employed the custody of one of the two drums, which are the sacred emblems of the tribe and are given to the exclusive custody of two of the members of the tribe. There are two. of these drums among the Pottawa- tomies and these are used at all the official councils and state gatherings, of the tribe. To have the custody of a drum is a mark of great distinction among the Indians and Is only award- ed for some great service. This drum which was kept by Snawnash cannot be used until the Indian council holds netting and awards it to some other member of the tribe. The other drum belonging to the tribe was the one which was used yesterday at the funeral of Shawnash.-From the Topeka State Journal.

season, and have been extremely pop ular, but this weeks bill promises to exceed them all in pleasing patrons of the Bijou.
 ''The Masqueraders" is extremely strong in its dialogue, and it is clever ly worked up to elimaxes and situa- tions. It deals with perplexing social problem in a clean way that leaves its own moral The story is told in a most fascinating manner, and there are many situations of deep heart interest that hold the audience in breathless in- terest.
 The story of the play relates to the marriage of a charming woman to a man. who, while prosperity smiled up on him, was devoted husband. Ad- versity lead him to drink, and the con- sequent abuse of his family. The wife in her younger days was deeply ad- mired by another man. In the period when she is ill treated by her husband, her former lover, now rich, returns and champions her cause.
 The wife is aware of the fact that her husbands love for her is dead, and the old love is rekindled. Deep in the grasp of rum, the hsband goes from bad to worse, until finally he stakes his wife and child against the other mans fortune-the cut of the cards to settle the wager, and the husband loses IL is an interesting and thrilling scene.
 A devoted sister saved the wife from giving herself up to the man to whom her husband has surrendered her, and in the strength of high manhood he leaves her to accomplish his llfe\work, relinquishing her until such time as she shall be free to come to him as his lawful wife.
 Miss Grace Franklyn Lynch as Dull eie Larondie, the wife, has oportunity to show her dramatic talents, and she is equal to the requirements of the role. Miss Lynch has some exceedingly ex- acting scenes, which she executes mar velously well, She is entirely free from any eneroachments upon the melodra- matic. and ysterday received several curtain calls.
 Lawrence B. McGill as David Remon, the lover has the leading character of the support, and his interpretation of 1t is original and clever. MT. McGill plays the part with dash and fire, and received well-merited recognition for his work. William r. Canfield, as the husband, and Dorothy Lamb as the sis ter, are cast in roles which bring them out prominently in the play and both deserve much praise. The work of the balance of the cast was good as usual
 On Friday and Saturday afternoons there will be the usul souvenir mat inees.

ENTERTAINMENTS.
Hyperion Theater.

One of the most intense scenes in "The squaw Man is that in the sec ond act when Cash Hawkins, the rus tier, invites the COW punchers in the Long Horn saloon to drink with me-" The invitation is emphasized with a drawn A Colt It is not used, because Hawkins had ''the drop on every man present, and each individual present knew it. This is one of the few eases on record where a bad man pulled a gun and did not use it; and that fail- ure later cost Hawkins his life.
 Edwin Milton Royle has taken the in cident from real life, and it actually occurred in the Rocky Mountain Sheep saloon, West Cliffe. Young" Dick Me Coy, one of the bad men" of Wyo- ming, dropped into the saloon, loaded with bad whiskey. Some of the Bar l." and Broken IT. outfit, most of whom were Englishmen, had come in from the rodnd up and were quietly drinking. Mccoy, with an oath, whip ped out his gun, waved it toward the bar, and in burst of obscene profan- ity declared, "The house drinks with me- I'll kill the first - coyote and short horn who don't step lively"
 When the glasses were filled, the rustler proposed toast. as he lifted his glass on high and swept his gun in senl-circle. Here's to the Boers." A young Englishman, Hunter, stepped up to the desperado, whipped out his revolver and placing it against Mc- Coys side blew a hole through his body AS he fell dead McCoy's trig- ger finger closed conyulsively. When the smoke scleared away 1t was seen that Hunters left ear had been clip ped off by the last shot of the good bad man."
 William Faversham is being starred by Liebler & Co, this season in the title role, and as the expatriated army officer gives a portrayal of the English man in the COW country, it is far and away the best thing this talented young man has done.
 '"The Squaw Man" direct from its seven months run at Wallacks New York theater, with all of it's original cast, will be at the Hyperion Friday evening.

WINNING A RAISE.

Warden B. F. Bridges of the State prison had as guests the other day an English gentleman of title and his Irish valet who are touring in this country. They were taken through every department of the prison, and showed especial interest in the death chamber, where nurderers are put to death in the electric chair. While car- rying in this troom the nobleman re- marked, iwth wise wink to Warden Bridges Pat, If the chair had it's dues, where would you be?
 Without a trace of a smile Pat quickly replied: "tThe wardin and me wud be looking at the chair alone"
 Warden Bridges turned to hide a smile, and after silence of about a minute the nobleman asked the privi- lege of lighting a cigar, after which he wheeled toward Pat and said: Your wages are raised pound and sixpence month. ."-From the Boston Herald.

Old System Will Probably be Abolish:
 ed Next Year.
 It was been prevalent question Rof latee whether or not cuts are to be al- lowed to the undergraduates of the Sheffield Scientific school. The system of the past has been that six be allow ed each student during each term, which means eighteen year. On ac count of the reckless mann some of the students have been using these cuts and then overcutting it has been deern- ed necessary for the faculty to punish the culprits and also the innocent ones by depriving them of their cuts Some students in several of the courses have taken as many as fifty or sixty cuts, about ten times the number allowed, and then get through their course by passing their exams. This does not seem hardly fair to the other students who take their six cuts and some of whom do not pass all their exams, Whether the new idea which may be put into effect newt year will work to advantage or not is unknown.

New nnrcn Thentre.

When Richard Ganthony wrote the comedy, "A Message from Mars" which will again be seen here at the New Haven theater on Wednesday, March 20, matinee and night, he took for his hero an extremely selfish, self opinionated, egotistical man, and in doing this, his play has had a most salutary effect upon selfish people In bringing about the reformation of the selfish individual the author wove Into his story a superior quality of refln- ed, dignified comedy. As is well-known by theater goers, "A Message from Mars is intensely humorous. It is brimful of brilliant and witty dialogue sufficient to keep audiences in great outbursts of laughter. It cannot be said that any of the characters in Mir. Ganthony's play are untrue to nature. Selfish men and selfish women exist in every community. They are by all means too plentiful With the fine rec ord enjoyed by "A Message from Mars it stands to reason that local theater- goers will be much interested in it's forthcoming presentation.

CRICKET PLAYERS ON SKATES.
 A Gozen years ago to-day-the date was February 20, 1S95-a cricket match was actually played on Loch Lomond. So keen had been the frost at this particular period that the Queen of Scottish Lakes" was covered with a substantial sheet of ice, and the day in question being favored with bright sunshine goodly gathering graced the vicinity of the bonnie, bonnie banks" to witness the novel spectacle of a cricket match on ice.
 The wiekets were placed on wooden stands fixed to the frozen surface and all the players were mounted on skates. In by-gone times cricket has been played under similar conditions south of the Tweed, but the game above referred to is probably the only one of its kind that ever took place in Scotland.-From the Glasgow News.
