EUROPEAN CRISIS OF '80 SAME AS TODAY Newspapers at Museum Have News Irom Warfare Abroad That the Museum of Natural His- tory and Art at the New Britain In- stitute is popular with the publio is demonstrated not only by the fact that since its opening on the last day of May over 28,000 peaple have paid it a visit, but also by the numerous and splendid gifts it has recelved. One of the latest additions to the museum is the herbarium of a local college student. It is a splendid collcction of pressed wild flowers and plants and all are proper- Iy named and listed. The mounting of the specimens displays much care and pains, causing the plants to stand out very clearly and making the en- tire collection unusually well and neatly arranged. It is the aim of the museum to have a large collection of plant life, and this gift gives a big start in this branch. \ Almost daily insects of different species are brought to the museum, and these are mounted and prepared for display. The important part which insects play in relation to plant life ard agriculture has caused Curator Schurr to arrange numerous insects in a way which will show them feed- ing upon certain vegetation. It is the aim of Mr. Schurr to in time have a collection of the insects which are injurious to garden, orchard and chade trees, showing their life his- toties. A list of those who have collected and given insects to the museum will be published later. Bird students will be particularly interested in the announcement that R. T. Chapman of Portland has pre- sented a large egg collection, repre- senting about fifty species of birds, ranging from a ruby-throated hum- ming bird to the great horned owl Some of the eggs with nests will be nsed with specially mounted birds and cleverly arranged surroundings to show the nesting habits of the feath- ered creatures. Among the numerous interesting things presented by Mr, and Mrs. Henry B. Crowell are newspapers published in Middletown, Conn., in 1798, 1800 and 1808; a dictionafy of 1788, and a book published in New Haven in 1794. In one of the news- papers, published October 10, 1800, are severa items and articles which tend to show that conditions in Fu- rope were somewhat the same thwn as in the present day. N Some of the news notes read as fol- lows: “Paris, Aug. 19, 1800.—The from the north of Germany, and the best informed journals in that quar- ter, state that the Russians are ap- 1roaching more and more toward the Austrian frontiers. The army which is now at Brezeck, and on the banks of the! Vistula, consists of four grand divisions, each of 20,000 men, of which a third are cavalry. Besides this army a second is forming in Lithuania, and on the shores of the Baltic.” Another news item reads: “Italy. Rome, July 28, 1800.—The Irench have applied to the Pope for ieave to march an army through the Tcclesiastical states against Naples. Whatever answer is made, it is not to be suppoed the French will relin- quish their design; should a passage be refused them, they will no doubt force one.” Another read “London, Aug. 27, 1800.—The Chief Consul Buonaparte has demanded of portugal, as the price of peace, 10,000 crufades (a crufade is in value 55 cents) that the ports of Spain should be open to the French and that they should be placed upon an equal foot- ing, in commercial privileges, with the most favoured nation.” One article dated Denmark, Copen- hagen, Aug. 16, 1800, sa “Orders were yesterday issued to fit out all the large and small ships of war in this harbour.—They consist of five sail of the line and several gun- s, which are to be commanded by Lurzow. Other ships are im- ely to be put into commission. There has been a general press of ceamen to man the fleet.” One entire page of the paper is de- voted to dispatches from England, France, Germany, Ttaly, Austria, Den- rmark and Russia relating to or treat- ing on war, Among other gifts to the museum is a collection of Tndian arrowheads pre- sented by Willlam Upson. Nelson A. Yates also presented arrowheads, and these two donations help in enlarging the Tndian curio collection, The gift of a number of old English and American coins from Mrs. Martha Miller has considerably increased the collection of coins. Frederick S. Chamberlain presented a rare old Connecticut cent of 1788 and William €mith donated several U. S. cents dat- ing back in the early eighteen hun- dreds. Numerous other gifts have been made to the museum which will call for accounts in themselves. Many of the things which have been pre- sented are not on display vet, but when they are exhibited, which will be shortly, the public will be surprised at the additions. It will pay one to visit the museum now, and then make another call in a few weeks and néte | the progress. The Museum of Natural History and Art of the New Britagh Institute is surely growing rapidly and is deserving of its grand attendance and splendid gifts. AUTOS TO RENT By Four or Day. 1J' M.

By next week the lcommlssloner will be able to announce the plans for the departure of the New Britain Scou It is quite ap- parent that New Britain will be well represented this year both as to num- bers and the quality of the work ex hibited. Assistant Scout Master Burns is busy preparing the catalogue of the Scouts of the city. Hereafter it will be possible to tell the exact number of Tenderfoot, Sec- s and First Class Scouts, and the system of buying badges throuzh local headquarters will make it pos- sible to keep the records up to date. That the new arrangement of hav- ing all scouts buy their badges and certain other supplies from the cen- tral office in the Y. M. C. A., is prov- ing popular is evidenced by the fact that already some of the supplies ar exhausted and it has been necessary to order a new supply. The following men have become members of the local council in addi- tion to the men re-enrolled for last last year: T. Eben Reeks, Walter H. Hart, C. F. Bennett, H. C. Blakeslee, F. H. Alford,.

Last Friday, nine members Troop Nine hiked to the copper mines at the southern end of Meadow. The Scouts started Samuel card (e}, at 8:30 in the morning and made the trip out | Dby way of the Plainville reservoir.
