One of the Most Note
worthy of Pleasant Gather-
ings of hemmencemcnt
Week — Exercises Held
Throughout the Day

Class Day is always one of the hap-
piest of the many entertainments and
reunions that cluster around Com-
mencement WeeL, at Miss Baird‘s In-
stitute; and yesterday was no excep-
tion. The bright, beautiful June day
was all that could ,be desired, and even
the threatening clouds of the later at-
ternoon scattered, and left the pleas-
ant scene undisturbed.

The morning was spent in preparing
and putting In place the decorations
for the platform, which was erected
on the north side of the West Avenue
house. Above the stage was the class
motto, “Sula Nobllitns Virtus." set in
a field of blue. the school color. lie—
low the motto was elaborate drapery of
red, the class color, finished by a shield
bearing the figures '04 in white on a
red ground A profusion of daisies and
other flowers added greatly to the
scene,

At four o'clock all met in the School
Hall where the line. of march was
formed. Led by the little prize bearer.
Miss Nlnon Newton, and by the Jun—
lor Class, bearing chains of daisies, the
line was formed in order of rank, from
the lowest department to tile Seniors.
The class were received on the plat—
form by Miss Baird. and the pupils fil-
ed into the places prepared for them
on the lawn in front of the stage. The
pupils were followed by the faculty.
and by a large representationof the
alumnae. There were present pupils of
the years 1892, 1894 and 1896: and
graduatcs of the classes of 1887, 1888.
1897, 1898. 1899, 1902 and 1903. The
class of 1903 was represented by six
members.

When all were seated, Miss Coleman
delivered an address ofI cordial wci-
come to the assembled school. the al-
umnae, and the friends and relatives of
the Seniors who were present. Then
came the Class History, containing
many amusing reminiscences, and
reaching over the last five years The
history was heartily enjoyed and re-
ceived very hearty applause.

Next came Miss Hoyt‘s charming
class poem, a copy of which follows:

 

Red. royal red. the fairest shade

That ever unto nature strayed,

Whose cheering flame our hopes in
spire

To strive for all that’s nobler, higher,

Because you speak of purpose, strength,

Endurance, reaching all the length

0f life's long race until 'tis done

And the bright crown of victory won;

Of all the colors choose we you

To be our Sign and symbol true!

The red cross worn by knights of old

I - pilgrimage and tourney bold,

T e color of the life-blood shed

By brave men on to conflict led.

Who gladly life for country yield

On many a crimson battle field,

'iho color of the seven bars

That guard our glorious Union stars;
These speak of virtues never dead.
”rue strength and glory of the red!

And rod, so wondrous rich and fair.
We feel your beauty everywhere!

The color of the yule log bright,

0f holly berries. candlelight:

Of the rich wine of friendships sworn.
0f blushing nealth by beauty worn,
And of the glowing clouds that lit
At sunset in the evening sky;

Falrest of all your color shows ,
Within the heart of beautoous rose!

Rose royal rose, the queen of flowers
In all fair summer's garden bowers,
Since Venus and earth's “golden time"
The theme of every poet's rhyme,

or all the flowers, choose we you

To be our sign and symbol true!
Because you speak of joy and love,
0f fairest June's blue sky above

A war... with every beauty rife

And all things springing into life.

So, royal rose', and royal'red.
Together in sweet union wed,

0f flowers, of colors choose we you
To be our sign and symbol true!
And though in course of time and tide
We dwell no longer side by side,

T bush severed for our homes may be
B mountain, vale, or murmuring sea,
We'll pledge a health to school- days

one
To Nineteen-four. her rose, her red!

Next to this posingwas read the clues
prophecy. by Miss Coon. This was fill-
ed with sly hits ntthe various charac-
terlItlcs her classmates had displayed
during their course. The prophecy was
original In conceptiou and was greeted

. by laughter and hearty applause-

, The tree oration followed; the clues
» led by the orator, Miss Kip. walked to
I beautiful rose-tree laden with the
class flower, the red rose: and school-
mates und friends clustered round to

hear (he oration. Miss Kip’s words

'were well-chosen, and her sentiments
suited the beauty of the plant and the

, of the occasion. An apostrophe

to the tree was expressed as follows:

"And may we not riuhifutly claim vau'.

t 0 beintlful rose-tree. as our emblem

of hope and cheer, and of the bright
possibilities of our future. As your

of principle and Christian character to
sustain III in titties of trial and adver-
sity; your very thorns show us how to
place a barrier of modest ruiarVe be
tWeeu ourselves and those who would
approach as with rude and careless
touch.

After the return to the platform
Miss Ilrewater made the class presen-
tations As usual this part of the pro-
gram elicited Iiiost laughter from the
Initiated. The gifts liiid been selected
with It view to suggest the peculiarities
of each clussmote's personality, and
many were the jests, expressed or hid-
den, that her words conveyed. Nor
was Miss Brewster allowed to escape,
for no sonner‘bad the laughter that
followed Miss Austin's gift permitted
her voice to be heard. than she turned
upon Miss Brewster with a gift in sea-
son and many witty remarks. in be
half of the class, Miss Brewster then
pi’cscntcd Miss Baird with a beautiful
gift, a silver pitcher and goblet, In a
few well-chosen words of loving re-
gard.

Miss Coleman then delivered the
charge to the Juniors which was re~
sponded to by Miss Ruth Daniels, of
the c lass of 1905. Both papers were ex-
cellent each class representative hold-
Ing her own, with wit and vigor: nor
did they lack the touches of pathos and
earnestness which were fitting to the
hour. llcarty applause rewarded their
efforts.

Miss llalru then gave to the Seniors
the last monthly reports of their
school life at M. B. l. Misses Brew-
ster, Kip and Austin received certifi-
cates of second honor for the month;
while Misses Coon. Hoyt and Coleman
were so fortunate as to receive first
honor certificates. The class ranks of
the year for all members of the wheel
were next read by Miss Baird.

Then came the long-awaited award

following young ladies won a prize for
perfect attendance throughout the
(year: Miss Genevieve Cole. Miss Dor-
othy Davenport. Miss Abby Dunning,
Miss Enriqulta Korher, Miss Gisela

member of the Senior Class. The Cal-
IItanry was awarded to Miss Helen
tiara iloyl. of Nutlcy. New Jersey. and
the Valedictory to Miss Louise Ruth

A procession was then. formed for
the salutation of clans trees and ivlea
of former years, Hearty cheers greet-
cd each class emblem, and when the
newlv—planted rose tree of 1904 was
reached, the class call was heartily
given.

The M. B. I. song was then enthu~
sicstif‘ally given by the school and
alumnae: after which an informal re-
ception was held on the lawn.

Official Board Holds Senlon in For-
tleth Anniversary Events.

- The Official Board of the Rownyton
Methodist Episcopal Church held a
meeting last night. in conncction with
the fortieth anniversary celebration of
the Rowayton Methodist. Episcopal
Church. Nearly all the members were
present. and there were a number of
interesting reports, suggestions, etc...
regarding matters relating to the
church. One feature of especial in.
tcrcst was the presentation of the
statement of the special committee.
Charles W. Bell. John Sherman Hoyt
and George S. Bryan, concerning the
improvements and repairs to the
church building.

The committee recommended that
the side walls be decorated by the pa-
per hanger; ...at the wood work be
repainted: that the pews be put in
first-class shape, painted and grained;
that new book racks be purchased and
placed upon the pews: that: the floors
he painted. The report of the commit-
Iee was unanimously adoptedl by the
board.

Then the interesting feature of the
evening took place, when the members
of the board pledged threefourths of
the amount necessary to pay for the
same. and of this a large part was paid
in at once. This redeCorating of the
interior church, with the new carpet.
which is to be put in place by the lad-
ies, will place the church in fine condi-
tion. and will be as a memorial of the
fortieth anniversary. It is expected
that these improvements will be en-
tered upon at the close of the anniver-
sary services. This achievement of
the little society of Rowayton. on top
of the purchase and fitting Iip a par-
sonage‘last year speaks well for the
progressive spirit of the leaders In
Methodism in Rowayton.

In connection with tonight's servic-
es the different departments of the
Sunday school are to have a part. as it
s Sunday school night.

from the stove. The chimney was
shattered and will have l0 be rebuilt.
Leaving the chimney by the fire place

At Mr. Olmstead‘s house a large hole.
was knocked in the roof of the tower.
The electrical storm prof-rented, a fear-
fuily beautiful sight. The whole har~
her was as light as day at the time
and the oysterboats which were start-
ing out whistled and shrieked to each
other, making a wierd sound a'mld the
continuous roll of the thunder.

tive Entorfalnmcnt.

A flower social was held last night at
the parsonage of the First Methodist
Episcopal Church, under the auspices
of the Epworth League. The house
and grounds were elaborately decorat-
ed with flowers and Chinese lanterns
and the scene was an enchanting one.
Each person received a flower as u
boutonnier as they entered. and attach-
ed to this was a card with a letter and
number, which was for the floral game
"floral anagram.” Persons whose
cards bore the some number were re-
quired to act as partners and find out
what flower the letters spelled and
then make a verse of poetry including
the name of the flower. Some very
good impromptu verses resulted.

During the evening a. musical and
literary program was presented. Mrs.
H, J. Hipson recited an amusing se-
lection, concerning the naming of the
negro babies. Miss Bessie Stanley. of
Norwalk sang delightfully “My Love
Is Like the Red. Red Rose." and for an
encore gave “Maiden With Lips so
Rosy.“ Miss Elizabeth Rood. who is
one of South Norwalk's finest contrai-
tos. gave “To a Rose." and for an on
core “Slumber Song."

Other games were a floral love story,
several verses of poetry with blank
spaces for the names of flowers to be
supplied. Some of the cleverest of
those were submitted by Miss V. May
Fallon. Mrs M. D. Randall and Mrs
G. N, McKibbin. Taere followed also
a feature called "A Game of Flow-
era." which was very interesting.

Lemonade ice cream and cake were
served.

chairman of the commitee. and the
other members were Miss May Smith,
Mr. and Mrs. M. D, Randall, Miss May
Fallon. Miss Lizzie Gray. Miss Sadie

Averted

VICTOR. Colo, June 7.—Although
excitement. was at a high. pitch during
the night no sensational incidents oc-
curred. From dark till dawn the prin-
cipal streets were almost as crowded
as they were during the day by thou-
sands who had assembled from III
parts of the camp In the belief thIt
darkness would invite further blood-
shed.

Aaide from the occasional arrest of
a. union agitator by the military au-
thorities or the sheriff’s deputies and
the occasional crack of a rifle the night
passed off quietly. All night.,how-.
ever, the streets of the city and the
footpaths leading to and from the
mines were watched by the troops and
the deputies, and every few mlnutqt I. .
miner was brought in and placed In
the armory which is under heavy mil-
itary guard More than 150 union men.
said to he the leaders of the riot of
yesterday, are now hold at the armory.
Many have been there since early yel-
terday morning, and it is not. known
how much longer they will be kept. in
confinement.
