HELPING HANDS ENJOY POSTPONED XMAS SOCIAL. Appetizing . Supper Followed ~ By Pleasing - Entertainment. Owing -to the prevailing epidemic to which many of the mémbers of the Helping Hands, the popular body of workers. as_an. auxiliary-to the First Spiritual Union of this ‘city, fell vie- tims, the - regular Christmas soctal held always during the holidays, was held Thursday evening ‘in the vestry of the Spiritual Academy. A lirge gathering of members was present, all imbubed with the spirit’ of good cheer and genuine cordiality. ' To properly inaugurate ‘an evening of this_sort, the president of the Helping Hands, Mrs. Tootill, assisted by Mrs. Wood« man, Mrs. George Greere, Mrs. Béeth- am anG Mrs. Tuttle, prepared and laid cefcre the other members an exceeds ingly appetizing menu, consisting _of escalicped oysters, sandwiches in va- riety, doughnuts, cheese, tea and cof. foe. Following this popular part of the programme a programime of .en- tersainment ‘proyided by Mrs. Dow- sett, chairman, -afd’ assisted by Mrs. Beebe and Mrs: Baker ‘was presented, whick included Ringing the Cane, Helen ‘Blackstone and Mr. Blinn win- ning; bean-carrying contest, Mrs. Tut- tle yand Bruce - Blackstone' winning; marshmallow contest, Miss Anna Schultz; winning. The literary part of the programame offered readings by Ruth Bogue, Mar- guerite Brown, Mrs. ' Martin, Miss Grant; solos by Miss Blackstone, Mr. Blinn, and an original poem dedicated to one o the members of the society by Mrs, Greepe. Hilarity reigned during the contests, gnd the dainty. and desirable prises ‘wero eagerly #ought. This little co- terie of workers enjoys the distinc- tion: of being the most successful so- ciety of its size in the city, and the hospitality found at their regular fort- nightly suppers argurs well for their financial -prosperity, It. was late in the evening when the last members. reluctantly left the cheery atmos- phere, proving it an evening of rare pleasure.

Refetring to the organization of a new camp of the Sons of Veterans at Hartford, notice ‘of which was first given a few weeks ago, George E. Cox, one of .the promoters, gives detalls of the plan as follows The' first meeting will be held Lin- coln day, February 13,” There will be a banquet at one of the hotels and several speakers. It is proposed to call the new organization the Connec- ticut State camp, Sons of Veterans, and meetings will be held at irregular intervals. Following the banquet on Lincoln day, the new camp will be organized, officers will be elected and the various committees will be appointed. The signatures already received are of “sufficient number to warrant the statement that the camp will start under most favorable _circumstances. There will be a charter member list of thirty to forty, and these will include Sons of Veterans not afliated with any camp. Any son of veteran who may be interested in the proposed camp _can secure ‘full details by communicat- ing with Mr,.Cox. Men who do not care to tie themselves down to reg- ular weekly meetings - and yet ;ho prin- ciples of the Sons of Veterans are especially interested in the new camp. It is expected also that members of .camps of other cities and states will wish to become affiliated\with the new organization. Indeed, some already have signified ‘their intention of jofn- ing, as well as retaining their mem- bership in" their home camps. PATRONS OF HUSBANDRY.

(Continued frobh Page- One.) pen gave a check payable to Amsick and Company, New York, but with the | name E. Kuepherle in brackets on the 'stub. This is believed to have refer- ence ‘to the man named Kuerpherle, who) after being arrested in England, on a charge of espionage, committed sulcide, leaving a written confes- sion in his cell. Paid Out $5,000 in One Month. As an example of the size of the captain's financial operations, his bank book shows that in January Of 1915, he réceived approximately $6:400 and paid out $5,000 Arong the letters taken from Cap- tain Von Papen there is little of in- terest, with the exception of a letter from ‘the German consul at New. Or- leans condoling him on his recall from Washington and criticising severely the attitude of the American govern- ment. 3 Four Letters of Interest. The following four letters found among Captain Von Papens effects are considered the most interesting part of the correspondence turned over to the ‘American_embassy. The first is a_letter from R. Von Meyznburg, Ger- man consul at New Orleans, to Cap- taln Von. Papen.. The letter follows: From German Consul at New Orleans. New Orleans, 4 Dscember, 191 “Bear Herr Von Papen: I read with great regret that the fate of recall has indeed overcome you. I dom't suppose that you are very unhappy to be able to shake the dust of this unfriendly country from off your ' feet. What chiefly offends me is that in always giving way to the government here we have never found that they are kindly disposed towards us. That the demand for the recall hag been 8o sud- den and belated throws an interesting light upon the government here. May here also the day of reckoning come and our government find again that fron determination with which alone one can make an impression here, “Hoping that our connection formed in this great time will not come to an and with your departure, I am “Yours sincerely, “R. V. M Letter from Dr. F. W. Meyer. The second letter is from Dr. F. W. .23c, 27¢c 31c 136 Main Street Telephone 29-4 Meyer to Captain Von Papen. It fol- lows: “New York, 19 December, 1915. “Dear Captain: Best wishes again on the occasion of your departure. I bad occasion yesterday to thoroughly discuss recent events with some Ger- mans. As was natural, aithough there was a general agreement O main points there was a_slight difference of oplinon, indeed it could not have been otherwise, especially as we are rather cut off from the other side. The Austrian note is of course a mat- ter for general quiet enjoyment and the whole business can scarcely be taken tragically. The president this time has talked a bit too big even for those who blindly support him. But we are all of the opinion that the de- parture of you and your colleague is & serious loss for us. Though a ma- jority of those present had scarcely had an opportunity of knowing you personally, a' privilége which has been a ‘great pleasure t me, vet your ef- forts have always been especially spoken of and more perhaps than you think. T think, therefore, I am speak- ing in the name of all when I express to you the thanks of all of us for your faithful vigilance and unremitting la- bors under the most difficult circum- stances and to this I add my own spe- clal thanks for your attention to.my. iittle proposals. “It's not surprising in‘view of the flctitious neutrality of the president that the term should have been put to your work and you must carry back with you the knowledge that you have done your duty according to the best of your ability as long as it\was pos- sibie. Our people never forget this of you. “I_will gladly omply with your proposal to send a line from time to time, and it would be very pleasant for me tu receive one from you oc- casionally, especially if by proposals you mean such as could be discussed with some gentleman of the German house of Columbia university. I am keeping an eye on the matter specially mentioned. With very best wishes, “Yours, “DR. W. MEYER."” Freidrich A. J. Bernhardie's Letter. The third letter is wrtten by Gen- eral Friedrich A. J. Bernhardle. t fol- lows: “Posen, General Headquarters, 9-14. “Dear Captain: I beg to thank you most sincerely for your kindness in sending me & copy of the New York Sun containing my , two articles. 1 am glad to hear these articles, will, in your opinion have a effect’ as far as that is at all possfble in Amer- ica. The advertising manner in which they publish things is of course thoroughly American.

This. is evident from the inexpressible rage with which thesBritish and _ Freneh press have atficked these two Sum articles. ~ They have insulted -me in the most incredible way. However, I agree with you that mil- itary success will be a decisive tor for opinion in America. But England’s interference in American trade will not fail to have a cer= tain effect. I hope both will take ef= fect together. I think, however, that especially in the west where 1 expeet there will soon be a big attemut to break through, we have serious and difficnit times to _look forward to, but I confidently believe that we shall successfully overcome them. With best wishes, etcs, ' - “From BERNHARDIL “Please remember me kindly to Herr Von Bernstorfr.” The Fourth Letter. The fourth letter from Dr. Albert. Tt~ follows in part: ‘San Francisco (No_date). “Dear Herr Von Papen: "Well then how T wish I were ix New York and could discuss the situation with you and be (?) many thanks for the tele-. #Tam but hope Is small. For this time T suppose matters will move more quickly than in the Dumba case. T wonder whether our government will respond in suitable manner. _ The Patron’ also telegraphed that I was to continue my journey. So we shall not see each other for the present.’ * "+ * Tn my opinion it need no Sl £k, e opinion_so much - into consideration in spite of its belng artificially and intentionally agitated by the pros and legal proceedings, £o that a somewhat stiffer attitude would be desirable naturally quiet and dign- fled. “If you'should leave New York be-' fore my return we must try to come to, some agreemeémt about some pending, guestions - by. writing. * * * Yon, - will-receive them in Germany, a I Intended report of expenses paid| through my account on your behalf. I $hould be very thankful to you if you, would then support the question of monetary advance which you know of, | although I know that T was mistaken in my opinion that I acted as your, representative and accarding to your| wishes." The remainder of the Albert letter consisted of news about his wife and| other private affairs of no public in-| terest. The correspondence selzed ' from Captain Von Papen and turned over to. the “American embassy consisted of: coples of letters and a summary of bank books and stubs. Later Wash- ington will be supplied with photo- grahic copies. Madrid's four breweries dally turn{ out 66,000 gallons of beer. 2
