SECOND ANNUAL DANCE OF
 HEBREW LADIES, AID SOCIETY.
Held in Cadillac Hall With Large
 Number in Attendance.

Their second annual dance was giv- en on Tuesday evening in Cadillac hall by the Hebrew Ladies' Aid society, and was carried out with great surress, both from a soiial and financial stand point, as the hall was filled with a crowd of nearly four hundred people, which meant satisfactory returns at the box office, and the programme of fifteen numbers with the full Lyric or chestra playing, made that feature of the evening especially enjoyable. The substantial proceeds will be devoted to charitable purposes.
 On the arrangement committee were Mrs. A. Ableman. Mrs. William Trach- tenberg and Mrs. J. B. Alofsin, while the aids were Miss Ida Tractenberg, Miss Rose Crulnb, Miss Ida Sears and Miss Anna Schwarts. The floor direc- tors were s. s. Alofsin, l. Taylor, Mich ael Schwartz and s. Siegal. Among Rose Kalan of Chesterfield, Edward Kahn of New. York. and guests from Hartford and New London.
 The social evening marked the feast Of Parim, one of the principal festsal events of the Jewish religion, and al- ways time of merrfmaking and social events. It commentaries the success full appeal which Queen Esther made to King Aflasuerus, which saved the Jews fom the destruction which had been planned for them by their enemy, Mordecai. In Jewish households on this evening the portion of the Old Testament containing the story of Esther is read and wherever the name of Hamann, at whose counsel Queen Esther made her appeal, 1t is greeted with much clapping of hands, but their hatred oof Mordecai is expressed when the name of this enemy of the Jews occurs.

Entire County Should Help.

Regarding the hearing Wednesday at Hartford upon the bill to establish a tuberculosis sanatorium in New Lon don county. Dr. Charles B. Graves of New London writes: It is hardly necessary to point out the importance of this measure to the people of this end of the state, Cases are constant ly arising which prove the urgent need of local institution for the care and treatment of consumptives. Fay- orable action upon this bill will very largely depend upon the degree of interest shown at the hearing by the citizens of New London county.
 l am informed that our senators and representatives are enthusiastic in support Of this measure, but 1t is highly important that there be also at the hearing good representation of physicians and others interested in public health matters.
 It is particularly desirable that the testimony before the committee be strong in the citation of specific in- stances Illustrating the need of such a hospital Medical men and others cognizant of such cases will afford great aid by personally appearing be- fore the committee, or dn case of in- ability to do so by sending written statements.
 The people of Norwich have for some time been active along this line, and have developed here a strong public sentiment in favor of the movement.
 New London in the midst of her other activities cannot afford to be in- different to this opportunity, but should do her share toward securing for this county this much needed addi- ton to her resources.
 The hearing will be at the capitol Hartford, before the committee on i1u- mane institutions. beginning at p. m.

Working For Tuberculosis Sanitarium
fore Humane Institutions Commttee- Norwich Busi- ness Mems Association Names Representative.

There will be good sized delegation from this city, it is expected, at Hart ford on Wednesday to appear before the committee on humane institutions in behalf of the tuberculosis sanatori- um for this county. From the beneficial effect of the hills in this vicinity, it is probable that such an institution would be located hereabouts, and it is greatly needed, according to the statements of doctors and those in a position to know.
 The Norwich Business Mems ass- ociation has taken the matter up and has named Charles D. Moves to repre- sent it before the committee in urging the favorable report upon the inst1tu- ton for the county. MT. Moves was appointed at a meeting Of the directors of the association which was held on Monday evening at Baltic: For some time there has been a request before the association to hold it's meeting of directors occasionally at Baltic or TaftvilIe. Monday evening eight of the directors went to Baltic where the meeting was held, and following the enactment of regular business adjourn ment was taken to nearby hall, where refreshments were served by the Baltic members, and there was a gath ering of the Baltic business men to meet the directors of the association. President c. l. Smith of the association presided over the session. The plan proved most successful, and it is prob able that others will be held there or in Taftville, in the future.
 In addition to the representative of the Business Mems association it ia understood that Francis J. Leavens, president of the local branch of the Red Cross, M. J. Kelley of the Central Labor union, and DrS. Hartman. Don Oa1ue and Brophy will also be in att tendance and speak before the com- mittee upon the need of the institution.

In addition to the hearing on the matter of a tuberculosis SanatOrium for this country, which directly inter- ests this city, there are many other matters coming before committees this week which will take many, to Hart ford to be heard upon them.
 Today before the finance committee the bonding matter which is interest ing New London will come up, as will the annexation of Waterford to New London. There will be also the con- tinued hearing on the petitions of the Essex Light and Power company and the Middlesex Light and Power com- pany for the right to most of the ter rttory in sMiddlesex county and south western New London county coming before the committee on interpretations and unless these concerns have recon ctisd their differences. pretty scrap is apt to result Then, too, is the date of the railroad committees hear ing on Representative Whiton's bill providing that but a three-eent fare shall be collected by street car con- ductors for standing ride. There is trolley officials are to appear en masSe to oppose 1t, while MT. Whiton has marshalled 9 good number of the abused public to his support.
 The committee on fish and game has a couple of matters before it this dl1ElIlOOu. ou0 IS IktPIGSGuC1tlVc e Chapman's bill providing that a1e- wives shall not be taken in May from Bride brook or Long Island sound and that no person shall take alewives in Mamacock creek in East Lyme except above Brainerd's island on Friday or Saturday nights in March, April. May or June. The other is bill intro duced by Representative Johnson of Montville providing that the state ifs and game commission shall cause to be distributed copies of the fish and game laws to the game wardens at least one week before the opening ot the season for the taking of fish and game and the wardens shall make pub- lie the same.
 Wednesday afternoon sees another lot of hearings on matters which in- terest New Londoners. For one thing the committee on agriculture consid- CTS Governor Baldwin's plan to abol- ish the office of state dairy and food commissioner by transferring his du- ties to the commissioner on domestic animals, which would deprive Deputy Commissioner Cruttenden of his office
 On Wednesday the committee on public health and safety gives another hearing on the proposition to permit Bonesetter Stephen B.

"SIMPLIcITY IN DRESS"
 STi7S UP GIRL STUDENTS
Assistant Principal of New York HiaF
 School Now Very Unpopular.

New York, March 13-There is great excitement among the girls of Erasmus Hall High school and much whisper ing gathering in the corridors, with rumors of secret indignation meetings of the various girls societies, for the girls are mad" clean through. The assistant principal, Miss Kate Turner is the person on whose devoted head their wrath Is being poured. Her sug- gestions in regard to simplicity and uniformity of dress and the abolish ment of extensive graduation dresses have not been taken in good part by the girls, who assert that they and their parens are the only persons who should have any suggestions to make in regard to their dress.
 Preparations for the commencement and graduation exercises, which are still several months away, have already begun at the high school, and the question of graduation dresses has been discussed among the girls. Miss Turner, with the beginning of the preparations. delivered several ad- dresses to the girls in which she broached the question of simplicity and uniformity of dress and decried the ex- travagance of dress that usually mark ed the graduation.
