JUNIOR LEAGUE SHOW ONE OF
 BIGGEST HTS
150 In Cast of F'roiic At Park Theatre Give Un- usual Presentation.

A wonder show replete with classi- cal toe and popular dances, fashion shows, pageants, drills and songs of every type was presented last even ing at the Park theatre by 15O mem
 bers,~ friends husbands and children of the Junior League. Gone were the slight defects always expected on the first night, and a finished production was presented by these clever anna turse.
 As an opening number eight girls attired in the costumes of 1850, sang and executed a delightful old fashion ed minuet after which the modern girls, Mrs. Jonathan Godfrey, Miss Alice Curtis, Mrs. Sidney Becker and Miss Mary Hincks appeared. Quite captivating were the tiny French dolls and sailors whS were next on the pro gram
 During the first part of the show two numbers were presented by the husbands and male friends of the League. Charles Armstrong was quite the thing as Katie O'Connor in the bowery sketch in which Glover Jen- nings, assumed the important role of Francis in the song When Francis Dances With Me- Parker SeeIev John Christie. Bronson Vaid and Da- vid Fleming appeared very vicious and blood thirsty as ''The Crooks As an encore to their song '-In Old New York" they paradied the chorus and sang of wel1-known people and organ zatio<s in this city.

Translated Letter
 Written In 1875 B. C.

A letter written in 1875 B. c. in Babylonian by the governor of one of the provinces of Palestine to the King of Egypt in which the King is warned that if he did not send soldiers to the province to quell an invasion by strong tribes of the Jews he (the k1ng) would be in danger of losing his throne, was one of the interesting subjects discussed last night in the First Methodist church, by Professor Robert w. Rogers, IL. D. The letter corroborates the Book of Joshua as written in the Bible.
 The letter was written on a slab While the clay was soft and upon the completion of the manuscript the slab was baked in a hot fire. It was one of the many antiques found in a little shop in Mecnalcius, Egypt, by an English archaeodOgist in 1891. This certain letter was translated from the Babylonian by Dr. Rogers, who is lecturer at Princeton Co., lumbia, Oxford universities and Drew seminary of Archaeology

 Many of the models carried huge fans and assisted in the presentation of the Senorita Fan Song which closed the second party and in which Mrs. John K. Williamson was soloist.
 After the band box dances by eight of the debGtanteS and younger ma irons eight couples presented a fine reproducti of the Octette numb Der in Good Morning Dearie.'
 Brief red dresses with red cocks and hats of chenille were the attrac- tive costumes of the younger set which appeared in the Folly Jazz. These girls also assisted in the Blue Dananbe Blues which was sung by Miss Margaret Neithercut-

 The auditor apparently regards the Llll report as in some sense a re- f1ection on his own methods. and points out that the bookkeeping plan was provided by the late Peter White, famous accountant, at a cost of $30,00O. The city has receiv- ed in interest on deposits $500, 900 since 1891, although in 70 years be- fore it had received nothing. The city issues serial bonds in place of bonds to be paid at maturity from sinking fund. The auditor reminds that he planned both of these re- forms.
 A contingent appropriation of S1OO, 900 to provide employment is suggested. It will be disbursed un- der the joint supervision of the Charities and Public Works Depart mentS.
