Third Annual‘Event Held in
Music Hall-«Excellent Enter-
tainment Program and Dan-
cing Madeline Hours Glide
By Mitch too Rapidly for

Those Present

 

The third annual ball of the list-
ters‘ Sick Benefit Society, held last
evening in Music Hall, was, of course.
a great success. The persons who at-
tended enjoyed It all immensely from
start to finish. it was, in the first
place, an ideal night for a dance, the
decorationsrin the hall were of a most.
handsome and elaborate character, be
ing the work of Moses P. Hallock, who

. is certainly an artist in this line. The

music was rendered by how‘s Orches-
tra, which is a guarantee of excellence
in itself. A line concert was given
prior to the dancing.

On entering the hail the eye was
at once taken by the tasteful and el-
aborate decorations. The stage was
particularly line. A low fence of
green, surmounted by electric lights
and lined with palms made a pretty
foreground, while at the rear and sides
"Old Glory" floated serenely. The
boxes at the sides were decorated with
United States shields and tings while
around the galleries were lesiooned
flags. From the center of the room,
running to all corners were graceful
festoons of green and white paper.

Suspended below them was a cluster

3: Joy Where the
"When the Frost is on the Pumpkin."

‘ of flags of all nations suspended from

the cut glass chandelier which was it-
self brilliant with electric bulbs,

The opening nuiiibcr of the program
was a selection by lxiw's Orchestra.
The Rough Riilor Glee Club thou filed
on the stage and rendered a number of
selections. Among them were
“Good Evening All, Good Evening."
"in the Eveningr by the Moonlight,"
“The Man Behind," "Old Black Joe."
in character by James Gordon and the
chorus. The work of the Rough itiil-
ers is too well known to need further
comment.

The next number was a selection by
Thomas Cole. who sang three tlinés.
Mr. Cole was In excellent. voice and

' iiiwasy a favorite with local audiences

he scored oven. a bigger hit than us»
nal. His selections were "in the Val-
Blttehirds Sing,"

and “Good Bye My Lady hove." He
avas most enthusiastically applauded.
Later in the evening a quartet from

the Hell Boy Company rendered sev-

 

 

eral selections which were very good
and well received.

The dance program comprised twcnv
ty-clght numbers. and dancing coiilinT

Turkey. Said to Have Failed
to Pay Proper Respect to
Sultan

‘ WASHlNG’i‘ON. Nov. 23.——Dlspleaa-
ed by some action of the natives. Mr.
Davis, the American consul at Alexanv
drctta. is reported to have lowered the
American flag from the consulate dur-
ing a recon celebration In honor of the
accession of the sultan. it. is said the
officials and people of Alexandretta re
card the action of the consul as an in-
sult, and It, is expected at the State
Department that a comniplnt on the
subject will reach here soon from Con-
stantinople. Should the Turkish gov-
ernment request the recall of Mr. Due
vis it would be necessary to comply
with the request and he probably
would be given another assignment un-
less it should be shown his action was
unwarranted.

Nerd Amelie: Struck Oar Float

NEW YORK» Nov. 23.~Fourteen
hundred Italian ateerage passengers,
returning to Italy on the La Vel0ce
Line steamship Nerd America. were
thrown lnto\ excitement today when
the ship was rammed by the New
York. New Haven & Hartford Railroad
float No. 6, in the harbor of! Liberty
island. The float struck the steamship
about forty feet from the stern and
two feet above the water line, tearing
a hole twenty feet long and six feet
high In her plates, and making it im-
possible for the vessel to continue
her voyage without extensive repairs.

At the moment. of the collision, many
of the steernge pansengers were on the
side of the ship toward the approach-
Ing float. When the crash came. and
the Nerd America heeled over alarm-
ingly many of the passengers became
greatly frightened. and the crew had
much difficulty in reassuring them.

When the collision occurred. the
Nerd America was going down the up
ptr bay with a full head of steam.

As she was passing the Statue of
Liborlr. Cant. Ratio saw on his star-
board bow the heavy steel host. with a
dozen freight cars aboard coming dl-
raciiy toward hint. According to Capt.
Raffo's statement, he thought the can
lain of the float. intended to pass under
his stern and kept on his course. but
the float. came on at full speed and
struck the steamship.

After the Nerd America regained an
even keely and the passengers were
quieted. she returned to her pier. The
float. which had apparently suffered
but little in, the collision, continued on
its course.

The Nerd America will have to be
docked and repaired. and cannot re-
sumo her trips for some time.

Yesterday's despatch from St. Johns.
N. l“.. which stated that the Stord
should have arrived at that poit five
days ago. added to the. anxiety already
felt. for the vessel‘ here.

 

 

Steamer Short of Coal.

BOSTON, Nov. 23-Tbe steamer Jill)-

since, with a brother.

testerday morning Mrs. Morgan had
her husband before Judge interns, in
Stamford, on a. complaint alleging as-
sault. He was arrested Monday at.
Hlith Ridge, by Constable Schiecht-
wag. Mrs. Morgan told Judge Downs
she was afraid of her ltfeywhen her
husband began to drink hard cider,
and she added that be generally start-
cd that. sort of thing when he got tip
in the. morning. She gave rather a
long and decidedly vivid recital of the
iliuisagc she'd been suffering.

When it came time for Morgan to
make a statement. he declared that.
save in that part of the story which
went to show that he liked hard cider.
his wife‘s recital and that of his
daughter did not coincide with the
facts. Then he said some things
about his wife‘s houaektmping that
would bring tears to the eyes of most
women. Ono interesting bit of touti-
away of Mr, Morgan was that his wife
had procured a nail of cider for a
neighbor of the sterner sex stwcu
years ago. and that. he had always held
that against her. .

Prosecuting Attorney Carter said
he was satisfied that the woman was
mail." filled with fear of her husband.
and he recommended that he be plac-
ed under bonds to keep the peace.
Judge Downs fixed the bond at Wild.
and sent the accused to jail for so
days. in addition.
