The portrayal of the typical New England characters was done with such mark- ed ability as to draw forth much ap- plause and several curtain calls after each act. Everyone present found a wholesome country play to enjoy, and every member of the cast contributed to the successful presentation. Dan- iel V. Wall was in the title role, and | the duties which the village parson was called upon to do give him full oppor- tunity to display his ability. As the country detective, Joseph Conyers was a scream. His conceit over his posi- tion made him a too dfligent official, but his bad slip proved the climax of the play, for through it he discavered the long’ sought villain end permitted love thereby to take its true course, so the minister and the cobbler’s daugh- ter, which role was pleasingly done by Maud Nolan, # is inferred lived hap- pily ever affer.

There was a large attendance at the home missionary meeting held at the Broadway church parish house Fri- day afternoon. The ladies of the oth- er churches were invited to hear_the address given by Miss Frances Yeo- mans of Fiske university, Nashville, Tenn. Rev. Dr. Pratt conducted the open- ing devotional exercises and spoke a few words of greeting and of introduc- tion for Miss Yeomans, Her address was extremely interesting. She has been working among the colored peo- ple for twenty-six years—seven vears at Talledega and the others at Fiske university—and has a thorough knowl- edge of the work and a deep under- standing of the people and their needs. This negro problem is perhaps the greatest one the Amnerican people have to solve, she sald. She noted the in- crease from between three and four millions of slaves set free to the nine 1 millions of negroes in the south progress in these forty years has been marvelous. There is a new black south as well as a new white. One-half of them now have school ad- vantages and many can now give their white neighbors points in farming methods and other things learned in their schools, Frame houses are re- placing their old cabins and their tax- able property amounts to $500,000,000. This_change is all due to the mis- sion schools, Fiske is the oldest, larg- est and most advanced of the A, M. A. schools. It became widely known through the Jubilee Singers. he gave its history from the first opening in the old barrack at Nashville in Jan- uary, 1866, She made an eloquent plea for the great need of a college like Fiske for the negroes. Industrial training such as that given at Tuske- gee, is the best education for the masses. But the negroes are socially a class by themselves. The color line is sharply drawn all thorugh the south and probably always will be. But they are a rising people and must have leaders from among themselves. These leaders must be trained in their colleges. All the teachers at Tus- kegee are college bred and 17 are grad- uates of Fiske, as is also Mrs. Booker Washington. ske has 600 students various departments—grammar normal school, college prepar- atory, and_college, very few being in the last. Only two or three of these 600 students are full black complexion. The brown skins predominate, Some even have blue eyes, red hair or freck- les. All have a certain serious and earnest look. They realize that they must fight their way. They &now the story and often the facts, of riots, fights and burnings. These things tend to make some infidels, but more | are walting God's time and planning vance instead of hatred. Their pa- tience is great and their earnest effort to make themselves wort and to gain their right—not of social equality with the whites, they do not demand that, but the right to have an equal ch: something of themselves, there are all kinds of negroes—as of any peonle— and many of the wicked and vicious class are drifting north and west and using the prejudice of the north t their race. When Miss Yeomans sees this and gets discouraged she takes a trip in the southland among the 659 gradua of Fiske and sees the good wor y are all doing and comes back with re. courage and the sure conviction that it pays to educate the negro—to give him a Christian education. She gave the story of what several of these graduates are doing and ha done, which left no doubt in her hear- ers’ minds also that the education of these particular students surely paid. At the close of the meeting tea was served by the ladies of the soclal com- mittee. Unclaimed Letters.

The superior court room door was pulled off its hinge by the crowd in its cfforts to get into the court room to hear the eyidence in the case of the state vs. Addie Burns. Every chair was occupied and once inside it was necessary to stay until a recess and after going out it was not easy to get beck agam. Some spent the entire day there. The state completed its testimony during the day and two wit- nesses were called for the defense and from the testimony it is evident that an attempt will be made to prove an alibi, it being claimed that Addie Burns was not in New London when the alleged offense occurred. Florance Staples was recalled to the witness stand at the opening of coart and continued the story of the check system used in the Burns house and said that Morris Blasking sold clothing there in January, 1907. She did not know of clothing being bought for May Burns, Girl's Mother Testified. Attorney Alling called Mrs, Kate Burns of New Haven, wife of Michael Burns and mother of May Burns and eight other children. May was born in August, 1891, in Danbury. She missed her early in 1907 and complaint was made to Chief Wrinn at Javen, but she did not see her dauzh. ter again until in March of that year, when she returned home, accompanied by Grace White. The girl said she had Dbeen taken to the Purns house in New London, where she had been assaulted. Atter her testimony the state rested. McNulty’s Testimony Heard. Attorney Goodhart claimed to the court that John McNulty, who, it is claimed, had taken the girl to New London, had been summoned by the state and used as an exhibit, but not called to testify. After a tilt between the attorneys Judge Wheeler allowed the lawyers for the defense to consult with him for five minutes, after which they returned to the court room and McNulty was placed on the stand. He is a_young man, good looking and small of stature, but pale. He testi- fied that he knew May Burns three months before they went to New Lon- don. He denied threatening to shoot her or promising to get her work in a shop. He declared that she asked him | to get her a place where she could live and have fine ciothes, as _she knew some fast girls who did. She claimed she had trouble at home and any place but that for her. Later he heard of the Burns house and May claimed she had also heard of it through a friend who was _there. She said she had been to New York for two weeks with an- other girl and her family did not care. On the night they went to New Lon- don he met May and Florence Dewey with a ycung man named Wocds. Mz~ Nulty walked with May and upon her suggestion that she wouid make believe g0 home but would return and meet him, he left them and as she promised they met in about fifteen minutes and went to the.Lenox at 10 o'clock. He telephoned to the Burns house in New London that_ the girl who wanted to 50 there was with him and Addie di- rected him to get $3 from Mr. Hayes of the Lenox. asked May if she wanted to go to 2 London and was Previously Mr. Hayes ew she said she did. ay anxious for the train to arrive spoke of the fine clothes she would McNulty told Attorney Hull that he is 20 years old and left New Haven in March, 1907, going to New York and Coney Island. where he worked as a waiter under the name of John Barnes. He did not go away for fear of arrest. He went to w Lndon twice after he took May there, but nied asking her for money. She wa at the Thayer house the second time. He called up the Burns houso twice in | the same evening they went to New | London and was told that the girl | could come if it was of her own free remember little of the con | the Burns house when the: but he was allo night. McNul der indictment in the county court. The information, which ges McNulty with enticing May Burns to a house of ill fame to lead a life of shame, was lald In as evidence Annie Foster, who stated that she vas 35 and living with her mother in st New London, was called, and tes- tified that that was not her real name. She testified that she had been an inmate of the Burns house from October, 1901, to August, 1907, She told of being at the Burns house when May Burns came there. The next tated th ha was un- Haven morning the girl told the housekeeper her name was Florence Harris, which the housekeeper discredited. The girl made a chum of May Lewis, and while she could not tell positive acts she did e the others in the house. The next day after the Burns girl arrived Addle Burns left and did not return for over a week, being at Centerdale, R. I She told of Dr. Ganey coming to see the girl. Bail Increased $3,000. Because of a coughing fit Addie Burns was obliged to leave the room and a recess was taken shortly after three o'clock. At this time State's Attorney Hull asked for an additional bond for the Burns woman because of the second charge of rape which had been filed against her, this being alleged to have taken place a week after the first The state’s attorney stated that there was plenty of time between now and Tuesday to get away, but Attorney Goodhart thought there had been insufficlent evidence as yet to cause her to leave the state. Judge Wheeler fixed the additional bail at $3,000, and Addie Burns was ordered to furnish it to the satisfac- tion of the clerk of the court by noon today, This makes the bail $10,000. After the recess Annie Foster was recalled and testified that May came to the Burns house again about boat race time accompanied by a girl friend. She said she was supposed to be at work, but had gotten off for th eday. She asked if Addie Burns would take her back to hoard and May Lewis said Never! She had dinner there and said she was going to Hattle Thayer’s and would get some money from Sullivan to go back home with. Annie Foster on cross-examination said that she had been married 19 years, her husband being dead. She had been at the Burns house since October 21, 1905, having come there from Providence, The name is an as- sumed one, and she demurred to giv- ing her own name. State’s Attorney Hull claimed it, saying he wanted to know who the witness is and show the utter improb- ability of the statements of the woman about the girl. Attorney Goodhart of- fered to furnish the name, but thought it should not be made public. This was accepted by the state's attorney. The woman said that Addie Burns went to Cenferdale, R, I, the day fol- lowing the coming of May Burns and remained untll the next week. Addie had a nice hotel at Centerdale where #he had visited at times. She knew it was in January, because Addie was worked up over a bill and Addie asked the girls to make it pleasant for May while she was gone. The state’s attorney started to ask a question and when half through Attor- ney Goodhart objected, whereupon the state’s attorney stopped. Mr. Hull in- formed the court that the question was I will. He supposed that May would | be, the one to pay the $3 to Haves when she earned it. McNulty coud that | not finished. “But I supposed ycu had jinished when you stopped,” added Mr Goodhart, whereupon Attorney Hull said: “I was so overawed when you started to object that I had to stop!” and Attorney Goodhart turned in dis- gust, muttering “Oh, shucks! Annie Foster was unaple to recollsct any other time when Addie Burns was away and could give no other reason why she fixed the time of her visit to Centerdale as the day after the girl came, although she said she went there quite often. She said that Addle had gone south during her stay there, but could not . tell when, having no recol- lection of the time. Returning to the visit to Centerdale, the state’s attorney sought to draw out how the witness fixed the time 5o pos- itively, but could give no reason ex- cept tkat they were not paid that wee! because she was away. There arose a disagreement between the counsel for the defense. Major Hull suggested that they go out back of the court- house and settle it, whereupon Attor- ney Goodhart suggested that he and the state's attorney better do it. The state’s attorney remarked that it should be over soon, whereupon the New Haven lawyer added that he was a good runner. Knew Girl Was Coming. It slipped from the witness that she recalled that Addie was there Monday from the fact that she heard it men- tiohed that the girl was coming Mon- day. This statement the state’s attor- ney was quick to grasp and when the witness was asked about it again she sald the statement was a mistake. However, she again added that she knew of the telephone call and that the girl was to come on the 4 o'clock train. The witness was unable to tell why she had said that statement was a mistake previously. Both attorneys here began to object at once and Judge Wheeler ruled that one lawyer on a ¢€ide hereafter must do the “objecting and told Attorney Goodhart to sit down. Attorney Stoddard attempted to tell the court how vexing it was for him after his many years of experi- ence to sit there and have the case pro- v, but Judge Wheeler in- formed him that it was not necessary to tell the court how long practice he had had, and gave them some advice as to making objections and interrup- tions, informing the attorneys when he thought they were taking too much |levity ‘that the court would be ad- journed if they didm't proceed in the proper way It was now 4.30 o'clock, the regular time for adjournment, and Attorney Goodhart objected ta a question which had been asked and just as Judge Wheeler was about to adjourn court. The objection came at such a time that it might been an objection to the judge's decision to adjourn. In obje He was court would hold until 5 o'clock. therefore apolo:’zed and court adjourned until Tuesday morning.
