Some of the perplexing questions
that have been bothering the directors
of the Young Men's Christlatt Associa-
tion for the past few months ware. prac-
tically solved last evening. at a special
:neetlng held in tlte Assoeiatlon par-
or.
The deep interest which the Wom-
en's Auxiliary has ever held for the
future good of tits Association was
again manifest last evening by the
presence in the Board of Directora'
meeting of Mrs. II. C. Shcrcr. president
“of the Auxiliary.
Since the announcement of General
Secretary James H. Norris‘s intention
to withdraw from the active work on
account of ill health and the earnest
wish of his mother tltat he return to‘
Ohio, the question has been asked rev
peatedly, “Who is to be ltis stic-
cessor?"~
Matty things stood in the way of In
vltlng another man to come in and fill
the place. but ntost of there, difficul-
ties have been cleared up and a soltr
tion has been found.
At the earnest request. of the Board
of Directors. Secretary Norris will rc—v
main a while longer nominally in
charge of the work, bttt will be reliev-
ed of the detail duties of general sec-
retary and will devote his entire timel

The quiet. steady. progressive and!
successful work of the past three years
is now beginning to take hold of the
people of the coittttttitlity itt such a
manner titat the larger development.
will be easier from this time on. A
false idea has prevailed to the effect.
that the Association was in a bad con-‘
ditlon financially and was likely to got
under. This is not true and the factst
and figures presented Inst eveningi
showed conclusively that the financial:
outlook of'thc Assoelation has never-i
been in such a good condition during
tltc past three years titan at. the pres.
out time.
It is true. however. thus the old debt
oi‘ the section has been very trouble-r
some: and at times burdensome, bttt
tltat is lit a fair way of being cleaned
up entirely. The people are coming
to the help of the work ttot with large
sums. hill their sutall guts and the.
stint of them is beginning to tell on the
right side.
The. young men of the “sociatlon
are beginning to manifest a more ac-
tive interest iii the conduct of the af-
fairs and they will now be organized
for definite committee work to a great-
er extent titan ever before.
Physical Director Charles F. Kraut
has been asked by the Board to assume
additional duties and will be on duty
evenings as acting secretary. while
General Secretary Norris is devoting
his time to the new building matters!

found that they were not making suffic-
ient noise with their Itorns and other
instruments of torture so they pro-
ceeded tothe steamer Kate C. Stev-
ens, which Was lying at the wharf and
they blew the whistle until there was
a head sticking from one or more win-
dows in every house within the sound
of the whistle. After an hour or so
of this sort of pleasure Mr. Stevens
appeared anti invited the company to
call at the house this evening. Aftet.

brstcd ths 125th Annlvsrssry of
Birth of Irish Martyr.
The Robert Emutetfllub, of Norwalk,
celebrated the 126th anniversary of
the birth of the Irish Patriotic Martyr,
last evening. at A. O. H. Hall, in Wall
street. There were present a large
number of members of the club. The
program of the evening consisted of
reading of the speech of Robert Em-
met from the dock, the singing of Ir-
ish national and patriotic songs and
the adoption of the declaration of prin-
ciples of the Clan-na-Gael.
After reiterating the belief that ire-
land is destined to be an independent
nation. and that to gain this end she
is justified in recourse to the sword.
the declaration continues in part:
We assert that the settlement of
the land question promised by the Brit-
ish Government will be attempted only
because England fears in her coming
troubles the hostility of the race in and
out of Ireland and hopes to secure
peaco and loyalty by buying a class at
the expense of the entire people. We,
further assert that nothing of this kind
can or will prevent the race from keep-
ing up the fight for the establishment
of an irlsh republic.
There is evidence of a revival of the
militant spirit in lreiand. and this spir-
it has been aroused in the lrisb race
in America to a gretiter extent than
ever. England's mask of friendship
is put on to enable her to fllch Ameri<
can territory and destroy the Monroe
Doctrine while pretending to uphold it.
We firmly believe that the British
Empire has entered on the downward
oath leading to final dismembcrment
and that a wise attd resolute use of
its ever increasing difficulties will give
her final opportunity.
A chowder was served. cigars pass-
ed around and a social time enjoyed.
Services in commemoration of the
iblrth of Robert Emmet were held in
