Christian Hansen, the famous tenor, who will appear Friday and Saturday, | Nov. 4th and 5th, matinee and night, at the Lycenm theater, New London, in onnection with the limited American 1 opera presentations of the New 4 company, came to the new Bo n Opera house last season with 2 itation as the idol of Berlin pre- eding him. He soon became almost as popular in Bosjon as in Berlin. In speaking of the wonderful voice of Hansen in “Aida,” the Boston Globe of 14, 190 id: “Here is a virile, | sbust temor with a tonal quality roughout his veice which has body, ength, breadth and depth.

London Wedding Fashions. weddings autumn make it clear that auntumn are going to foremost The first of season in London he brides of the emulate th of the summer and springtime by introducing into their toilets and those of their bridesmaids a note of novelty. At the wedding of Miss Cariesima Blood racently the bridesmaids were clad in radiant In dlan coats and robes and wore pink and white turbans. The effect was Orfental and novel. At another wed- ding a couple of little boys bore the train of the bride. ‘The children were | dressed in sailor suits of white duck | ind were unaccompanied by any bridesmalds. The average modern sride ls proud of proving herself free irom the trammels of convention. At one time the wearing of black at a wedding, even by a guest, would have heen considered unlucky. Nowadays it s a common occurrence to see brides- maids waearing black hats and by Do means an uncommon one for the bride herself to wear black millinery. One recent bride ordered a faint blush pink satin background for her filmy ivory lace toilet and another was bold enough to sanction the addition of green embroideries to her wedding robe—bold because green has ever been held In sinister repute in connection with a wedding gown. The fashion of veiling the face, at one time univer- sally observed except in the case of royalty, is being abandoned.—London Dally Mail An Unsolicited Testimonial.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR New London Beautiful. Mr. Editor—I sincerely hope that the people of New London will join with me in keeping before their eyes some- thing that was spoken of at one of the city council meetings, and :lso at one of the meetings of the New London Business Men's association—the mak- ing New London a beautiful and pros- perous city. ‘We know that it takes time and that the world was not made in a day; but now is the time to show forth what is in each one of us as citizens, and keep the good ship sailing, in the line of improvements. Northing is more detectable to the arrival of any stranger or to any per- son who has not been to the city for some time than the improvements be- ing made. No one notices it like these people, and from them the news extends to those who have never been to the city at ail. It certainly makes one rejoice when they ses the people in power tak- ing notice of the great need of new sidewalks, and carrying out the in- spiration that has come to them of such needs. We are going through this world but once, and surely we wavpt to leave things a$ beautiful and helpful for the oncoming generation as we possibly can. A noted speaker says that anything that is worth doing at all, is worth doing well, and we can see that if any- thing that we are one by ome called upon to do is going to be for the benefit of the younger people, who are srowing up in our midst, is worth do- ing well. These fmprovements may be classed in_many different channels, not only sidewalks, but other ways A new Young Men’s Christian association, for instance, which is a help to any city where there are young men, and which does its work in_trying to elevate young_men to a higher standard of true Christian manhood. A modern hotel at the Pequot, which everyone will agree would be one of the main agencies in putting New London on a standing such as it has not had in years. This no doubt would bring innumerable people from all over the coast, and help to bring back again sweet recollections of the past. | Longfellow says in his writings, “Let us then be up and doing, with a heart for any fate,” and if in our attempts to make New London what it ought to be, if we don’t succeed in all our at- again, this will help to London beautiful make Ne It has been said by one o our local preachers that it all lies with us, what we want to make of life, if we want to | make it beautiful, then we must put forth all our energies to malke it so if we want to make it something else, | why, we must put forth every fiber of | our being to make it so. I not only speak from the standpoint | of the making of the city of New Lon- don beautiful ough the agencies of | the city fathers and the New London Business Men's association, the churches in general, church of today h: in the making of the city, something | more at present than what it is, they should be up and doing. As the writer came up the Thames | river a few days ago and took a v of the magrificent Flotel G which is an honor not only to Groton but ro this part of the country, it made him think why can’t New London have just such a type of a hotel, and bring to our shores some of the finest peo- | ple in the country, and not only that, | but by doing so make business a little | | more brisk for the busines who, general, speaks of business being in views in could 0 wish portant of, a to expr el a s Chr n : 11d be a helpful agen- ung girt fr Wo | going and educate her in the | way that she would be helpful in the making of some other life successful | and beautiful. ¥or, after all, whatever is done in iy one town or city in the line of prog it all depends upon the man |ort aan, or in other word e d m 1 fe God has s beautiful and as precious ve: 1l and th to en- city power »od fortune t we it within their courage the new shipbu to our t give emnploymes ploved, and rs well, this eis ding compar i ich w many u to ther no tc n ison, sgov Ship comyp Scotl when visiting t {and who was on business at th s ern Shipbuilding company, buying their | stock. that their company in Glas- | | gow had od facilities at New Lon- don for ficating their ships sa the | would be proud, for, as | them ny thousands ot ars T dredging their harbors 0 do their work suc fully. He also said that he never was in a place be- fore where there were such facilities f eatry, and it seems th as'that ought to cause | us_to take notice. There are 1 our _possession by day for good of our young peo- | ple, and which is certainly helping to | shape their lives, and to make for their | | | | hings we have in re telling day whi future what nothing else ever will be able to do. This is our public schools, known for many miles around,for if we only knew facts there are many of our voung people wWho are occupying pos tions in different parts of the count who received their education in the schools of New London. | So let each one of us think on these things. And whatever is given us to do, let 18 do with our might The city beautiful will surely come | if we as citizens exhibit as much of an advance spirit as was exemplified at the city meeting Oct. 24th. Although, as Professor Buell says, we can make the attempt by doing our part; but even then W may not get the woman's | college, which in many ways mignt | benefit New London more than we have any conception of. What Smith’s co lege has done for Northampton, Mass., that it has been there the liege may do for New Lon- don. Let us be more patriotic, both young and old, and be up and doing. We cannot all be an Alfred H. Chappell or a Professor Buell or a Ma : or a Dr. Bixler, or many may be mentioned, but we can all be successful workers in our own little way. “Time and tide wait for no man! FREDERICK B. ROCKWELL.
