Miss Florence Jennings gave a fine se—

her hcsrcrs with the purity of her
voice, the almost faultlessness of enun-
cistion, and her true conception of the
idea embodied in her selection.
Miss Ilsy Rigby gave 3 piece entitled
"The “'orld on Fire," taken from one of
the prize speeches of the Nations]
Temperance Society, and written more
than ten years ago, by ltsv. H. A. Delano
of this city. She gave evidence of hav-
ing disciplined her voice, and cultivated
her ideal of this difficult selection to a
degree which mods her exceedlngly at

She had indeed mastered every detail of

scioru familiarity the largest words of an
sbstruw argument, giving the emphasis,
tone and ring of an old debuter to his

Tlis Spirit of the Times pronounces
“Jim, the Penman." ”the most novel,
original and interesting play produced in
New York for years." It presupposes a
stock company for the psrpetrstion of
forgerlcs. to which belongs James Rs].
ston, “Jim, the Penman," a rich Engltsh
member of Parlisment, moving in high
society, whose daughter is soon to be
married to It lord when the play opens.
“The Penman" has won his wife by
forging letters between her and her lov.
er; he has afterward robbed the lover of
$300,000 by the same means, and his
companions compel him, under pain of
exposure, to forge an order for the fam-
ily diamonds of his prospective son-in-
law. The play must be powerful indeed,
if it leads people to accept such gross
improbabilttics as these, but when the
crimes begin to recoil upon “the Pen-
man" and he fights for two sets against
discovery, the scenes are intenme dro-
msttc. The strongest is where the wife
sits on one side of the fire computing the
forged letter to her youthful lover with
n sIguaturc of hers which she knows her
husband made and the husband sits on
the other side expecting detection. The
wife becomes slowly convinced of her
husband's guilt, rises and denounces him
——he dares her to expose him before their
innocent children. and she cannot. In
the closing scene the wedding breakfast
of Rslston's daughter is going on behind
the scenes while Ralstou defies the
baton-chief of his criminal company on
the stage.

The lambs" of the legislature Take a
Trip to Wllanu's Point.
The following mount of thsexcursion
to Wilson Point yesterday, we clip from
the Bridgeport News. It contains all tbs
lmmrtaut lucts. except thst II'Artols
furnished the llnucollatiun. Tho Nows
says:
The special train of six cars with mem-
bers of the Connecticut legislature left
Hartford yesterday morning st 9:30 and
proceeded over the New England road to
flawlsyvlllo and from there to Wilson's
Point. the New England terminal, where
passsugsrs and freight ars transfsred by
boat to and from New York. The excur-
also was formed at the request of mem-
betspf the Isglslsturs who sIgnilisd their
desirsto see the rtllrosd and its fscllitles
which is now absorbing so much atten-
tion, both of the legislature and the gen-
eral public. When the request wss made
known to Vice-President and General
Manager William H. Stevenson, be
promptly placed an excursion train at
the disposal of tho members of the legis-
lature snd gave orders that none but
members of the general assembly be pro-
vided with tickets. He accompanied
the members on the excutsion.
The train arrived at Wilson's Point at
one pm. One of the large freight houses
had been carefully closred and live long
tables, built expressly for the excursion-
lsts, were covered with a palstsbls and
substantial luncheon. The excursioulsts
whose appetitics were whcttcd by the
long ride and the bracing salt air of Long
Island sound,wcrs all bountifully served.
Several Indies sccompsnied the party
which numbered about 300.
After the luncheon tbs excursionists
strolled about and discussed the various
features of the large plant. Astonish-
ment was expressed at the magnItude of
the facilities for handling freight which
averages about 1,800 tons. Four large
steamers are kept running to and from
New York and another is to be added on
May 1st.’ The new iron transfer bridge
and the heavy docking was inspected
and pronounced excellent pieces of con-
struction by the body of practical men
who readily understood substantial work
at a glance. The platforms and the nrw
dock extend into the det-p water for
1, 500. Suvursl three-muted schooners
were discharging cargoes of coal and the
steam hoisting snglnss as well as the big
dredges which were at work attracted
considersbls attention from t: few mem-
bers from the rural districts who had
never before seen such sights. After
thousands of cubic yards had been
dredged out by the New England Termi-
nal company the U. 8. government has
assumed the work and is now carrying
forward this importsut improvement.
The new improved water supply for
locomotives. the new turn table, the
heavy iron transfer bridges resting on
its mammoth pontoon are evidences of a
large outlay in labor and money, and the
impression is indisputable that already
an amount of business is actually being
carried on of which the public generally
has heretofore remained in ignorance.
At 2:45 the members of the legislature
started upon the return trIp well pleased
with what they had seen and consider.
