It is au eighth-metlium, manui'actured by Chandler S: Price, of Cleveland. The anona! series of lectores before the Tappan Presbyterian a.ssociation will cotnmence next Saturday evening at 8 o'dock, in McMillan Hall.

The same lecture will be continued in the Presbyterian churcli next Sunday evening. Stage, who lectures ut L'niversity Hall Saturday nigbt, January 28, on "The Modern Athlete," was Yale's famous baseball pitcher. . The lectme of J tulge N. V. Cháever, at the Inlarul League, Monday even. ing, was one of the most entertaining of the series, although it was not very largely attended. At the Baptist church next Sunday moruing, the pastor, Rev. A. S. Carinan, wil] preach on "A True Christian Communism." In the evening the ordinance of Baptism will be administered. The pera house was crowded on Monday eveuing to hear the great Modjeska in "Hamlet.";. Neither her power as an actress nor her popularity seem to wane. She was supported by a good company. Xorth Fourth avenue and Sutnmit Street have been crowded with coasters the past week. Tin horns are used by many of the coasters as instrumenta i'or warning passengers of the approach of the swift sleds. The delegates from the Masonic lodges of tliis city to the annual meeting of the Grand Lodge at Saginaw, are George H. lïlum, W. M. of (Jolden Rule, and Dr. W. II. Dorrance, W. M. of Fraternity, They left for Saginavv on Tuesday inorning. Fred Frey, a Lima farmer, does uót speak very favorably of the wheat prospect in his township. He says insects dld considerable damage last f all, and that though the deep covering of snow will be good for the wheat. it cannot undo the mischief done by the insects. Last Friday evening two slelghloads of young ladies and gentlemen from this city accepted an invitation to attend a social and dance at the residence 'of Mr. and Mis, Henry Paul, in Webster. The festivities continued until the dawn of day, and. the entertainment was pronounced on e of the most delightful of the season. The party from this city numbered twenty couples. Rev Dr. FrederickT.Brown, of Manasquan, N. J., died very suddenly while sitting in a chair in his library, on the lOth of January. Dr. Brown was a highly educated and noted divine, having been a pupil of the great D'Aubigne. He was once pastor of the Presbyterian chureh, of this city, for fïve years. For the past ten years he has been a pastor in Manasquan, and also for iive years editor of the Illustrated Christian Weekly, published in New York City. Instead of the lecture as aiinouuced for next Monday night the Inland League will give a musical entertainment. The program will consist mainly of native Scotch songs by Gourlay Bros., of Detroit. In addition, Philip Gray will sing a number of solos with flute accompaniment. Miss Campbell, also of Detroit, will give a number of Scotch recitations. The reputation of the Messrs. Gourlay for their exceptionally fine rendering of Scotch songs, with the assislance of Mr. Gray's line tenor solos, and Miss CampbelPs rendering of several Scotch dialect recitations, will make the entertainment one of unusual interest, and should draw a full house. Go and take afriend with you. Admission. ten cents. A. Alonzo Stagg, Yale '90, who has been engaged by the Studeuts7 Christian Association to lecture at University Hall next Saturday night, January 28, is amply qualified to do full justice to liis subject, '-The Modern Athlete." The illustrating of the lecture by means of stereopticon views makes it doubly interesting. Mr. Staggentered Yale intending to study for the ministry, but íinding his real field in athletcs, he threw himself into that work wlth all the energy of his entbusiastic nature. Since graduating he has been active in Y. M. C. A. work, both as a teacher in their training school at Springtiekl, Mass., and as a , lecturer. He will make the evening ilike entertaining and instructive to both young and old, and there is no excuse for not attending, as the admission has been placed at the nominal suni of twentylive cents.
