Speaking of organizations, he said all mathematical operations were con. ducted by organizing and arranging the ten figures and a few letters and symbols. All written language is but organization of the twenty-six letters of the alphabet. The ideal, the affectional, the mental and material were all combined, the judge said, in the supervisors' association. He hoped that the same tie might always bind the county lawgivers together.

C. E. FDRMAN MERCHANT TAILORS, Main Street, Corner Front. Thus Ujoth Floors. i r- 'Tift r'irim'iTrli --J Margaret Mather's Second Appearance Announcements.

When the new curtain of the Academy of Music rose on the first act of The Honeymoon last night, the theater was fairly well ocenpied by a critical audience. It was the second appearance of Miss Margaret Mather, and there was a laudable curiosity to see how the Juliet of the previous evening would personate the fair, but somewhat high-tempered Juliana of Tobin's grand old school comedy. The motive of ''The Honeymoon" is identical with that of Taming of the Shrew," but with the motive all resemblance ends. Juliana is proud and high-tempered, and is more wooed than tamed. From the beginning Juliana, as delineated by Miss Mather, was charming.

If it was the intention to demonstrate her great versatility by following Monday's tragedy so closely with Tuesday's comedy.it was a successful endeavor. It would be idle to claim that the talanted lyric artist appeared to so good advantage last night as on the evening previous. While the comedy abounds in pleasing situations, and enables the artist to charm her audience, it does not afford such opportunities for the exercise of the power, which it is conceded has made her great and will make her greater, as are found in the tragic story which is her masterpiece. At the same time, situations are not wanting which give a glimpse of that same strength, but they are lost in the ripple of laughter. Miss Mather brings to the delineation of the heroine of the comedy the same painstaking care which marks all of her work, and the result is a finished production, pleasing in the extreme.

Doubtless she is at the best advantage in the scene on the green, where she has almost, if not quite, fallen in love with her husband and dances gracefully with the rustics. When her father takes her from her husband to go into the presence of the duke, juBt before the denouement, she gives away to a bit of pathos which last night caused many quiet tears to mingle with the laughter. The Duke was represented by Milnes Levick and he sustained the character admirably. Frederick Paulding was at home as Captain Holando, while Eugene Jepson added tthe general fund of -merriment as Jacques, who occupied the ducal chair during his master's honeymoon. The remaining support was all that could be desired, and the play in its entirety ran with greeible smoothness.

This evening Miss Mather will again appear as Juliet. ANNOUNCEMENTS. Good as Gold will be repeated tonight at the New Opera House. Margaret Mather will appear again in Romeo and Juliet at the Academy of Music to-night. The sale of seats for the engagement of Miss Ada Gray will begin at the Academy of Musio Thursday mornicg.

14 to Recite There Until Their Building is Completed. As the new building for public school No. 14 will probably not be completed before November 1st, the question as to what provision should be made for the pupils who must begin their school work September 12th has been one which the organization committee of the Board of Education has been discussing during the past two weeks. Yesterday it was decided that the ninth, eighth and seventh grades, which constitute the grammar department, shall have half-day sessions, from 1 to 4 30 o'clock in the afternoon, and these sessions are to be held at the Free Academy, as the Free Academy committee has kindly offered the use of the building for that purpose. These afternoon sessions are to be devoted to recitations chiefly, the pupils to do their studying at home, on the same plan as the high school pupils.

This will give the pupils the ad vantage of well lighted and ventilated rooms and their work will be done after dinner and during the best part of the day. Fully as much can be accomplished in this way as in an entire day's session, and the provision thus made seems in every respect to be most wise and one that will commend itself to the patrons of the school for the short time that it will be needed. The work at the academy will be in charge of Principal R. A. Searing and his associate grammar department teachers of No.

14, just the same as if they were in their own building. Comfortable and commodious rooms for the primary and intermediate departments will be provided by the organization committee in the vicinity of the new building. The contract for the new building calls for its completion entire by November 1st, and the patrons hope that the conditions of the contract will be enforced. PURELY PERSONAL. General B.

LOTS OF FUN AT THE REUNION How Three Hundred of the Past and Present Lawgivers of Monroe County, With Their Families and Friends, Enjoyed Themselves.

Well, here we all are. again, said smiling Billy Sours, of the Newport House, as the steamer N. H. Galusha steamed up to his dock about noon yesterday with the first and largest detachment of the supervisors and ex-supervisors, with their wives and friends and the Knights of Labor Band. The county law-givers, past and present, were out on their second annual outing and were truly all there.

The first reunion, held at the same place last year, was considered a great success, there being about 200 persons present, but yesterday over 300 persons were in the party, and of these about 160 were supervisors and ex-supervisors. The day, too, was a perfect one, and everything combined to make the occasion the thoroughly enjoyable and successful one it was. Not an accident happened to mar the day's enjoyment, and it was a well pleased, although thoroughly tired, throng of pleasure seekers that left the pleasant bay-side hotel in the evening for Rochester. During the interval between the arrival of the first boatload and the announcement of dinner the supervisors sauntered about and shook hands with each other and introduced one another to such of their wives as they were not acquainted with. Several of the ex-supervisors and invited guests were noticeable by the particularly bright effulgence of their smiles and the heartiness of their greetings, and it was asserted by some envious persons that they were candidates for political preferment and were engaged in that rather hazardous occupation known as fence building." Whether this was so or not it was obvious that they entertained the Bame feelings of brotherly love for each other as they did for others a fact certainly to their credit.

They, with all the others, welcomed the announcement that Landlord Sours had one of his good fish and chicken dinners ready for the hungry multitude.

Ths Origin of Saloons. A large audience gathered in the lecture room of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, on East Main street, last night to hear an address from Joseph Hess. The devotional exercises were led by the Rev. E.

L. Newman, of this city. Mr. Hess was also supported by the Rev. William Burgess, of Listowel, Canada, author of Land, Labor and Liquor, and in an address by Mrs.

Babcock. Mr. Hess discussed as his subject 'The Origin of Saloons. He did not profess to be learned enough to tell his audience the exact tceaning of the word saloon he would leave that for those better able to give it, but he thought he could tell them now the places came to get that name. He then give a historic sketch of the liquor traffic during the past sixty years, dealing more particularly with those stages from 1851 to the present time.

The political and religious feeling at each step was freely discussed. Another Pennant Race. The pennant donated by the Hotel Ontario people to the Rochester Yacht Club is not won permanently as yet by any boat in the fleet, although there is an impression to that ellect. The yacht winning three contests obtains possession of it finally and forever. So far this and last Beason the Nokomis has won two contests, the Lady Eva one, the Velnette one and the Arm id a one.

Another pennant regatta is to be held on Thursday next in place of the usual practice sail. The course will be the same as last week, and the regatta committee hopes to tee as many entries as possible. The Btart will be made between 2 and 2:30 o'clock. This race wdl also count in the contest for the silver cup to be awarded the yacht obtaining the most points this season. Bold Burglars.

That a gang of burglars has begun operations in this city there is no doubt. It seems to be very audacious, and has so far confined its operations to the central part of the city. Monday night the intruders went into the store of M. VanZandt and also that of the Wheeler Wilson Sewing Machine Company, Nos. 83 and 85 Main street.

In both places they secured about $15 and a few small articles. It is thought they gained an entrance through a rear window. A ladder was hung by a rope on the rear of the building. The police are investigating the case. Died of His Injuries.

James Blumenstock who fell from a wagon on East Main street Monday afternoon, and who was taken to the police station on the patrol wagon, and afterwards paroled, died early yesterday morning at home on the Smylea road. Coroner Sharpe was summoned and investigated the case yesterday afternoon. The inquest will be held this morning. It is thought that death was caused by concussion of the brain. A Serious Charge.

Yesterday afternoon Constable Barrett of Irondequoit, arrested George Staudenmaier, a young man living at the Rifle Range, on a warrant, sworn out by State Fish Protector Schwartz, charging him with shooting at the latter officer. Staudenmaier was placed in jail in default of $500 bail. His examination will take place at 2 o'clock this afternoon before Justice Baird, at the Forest House. On an Investigation. John P.

Kislingbury, of this city, is in New York for the purpose of communicating personally with some of the Arctic survivors regarding the reopening of the government inquiry concerning the expedition in which, it will be remembered, his brother, Lieut. Frederick Kislingbury, took part and died. For the Pension Fund. The exhibition drill to be given at Culver Park Friday afternoon, for the beneht of the police pension fund, promises to be most entertaining. Besides the exhibition drill a game of base ball will be played between a nine chosen from the police force and the city hall nine.

Labor Day. Monday will be Labor Day, and a grand pkoic will be held a Maple Drove, under the management of the- Central Labor Union. Dancing and athletio sports will be the features ot the day. In a CelL John Stout was arrested last night on a warrant charging him with stealing a quan tity of rope and twine of L. J.

Church. He would be brevity. My nativity, continued Mr. Harris, "dates with the organization of this county. My recollection dates back to when Rochester was a village and when there were other towns in the county of nearly as much importance.

I can remember when the horse railroad between Main street and Cartage was started. In commoj with you all I have felt a pride in the ad vancement of our county. In the year 1853 I was first associated with the Board of Supervisors. At that time the court house was hardly completed. The surroundings were in a state of nature, almost.

Where Powers Block stands was the old Eagle tavern with a brazen eagle as a sign. There was an old wooden bridge over tae river at Main street, and you could look through the crevices at the water beneath. This, of course, was Rochester at that time, but Rochester is a part of the countv a very Important part and we of the towns take a lively interest in its growth. Mr. Harris concluded by expressing a wish for the continuance of the harmonious relations between the city and towns.

Donald McNaughton, the friend of all, was the only man considered to have tact enough to respond to the delicate toast of Equalization 19 to 16." Mr. McNaughton expressed the strong desire he had always had to air his views on this important subject. To some, the speaker said, the subject was a pleasant one, but he thought it would not be to the ladies, because they were superior to everything else. McNaughton then boldly proceeded to wade into his subject, figuratively, beginning by citing ancient history. The six city members of the equalization committee simply gave character to it, the speaker said.

The committee heard arguments that were simply facts founded upon fiction. Mr. McNaughton told of a supervisor who claimed that his town was so dry that the fish in Black Creek had to be supplied with water from a dipper, and also related several othar similar stories. Referring to the time-honored contention between the representatives from the city and towns, it was said that the difference was not sectional but fractional, and as fractions are always vulgar. Mr.

McNaughton refused to bring them before his polite circle of listeners. The matter of equalizing tax proportions between the city and the towns was always settled in the board, the gentleman from Wheatland said, by the convincing logic of 1 9 to 1 6. And so it will go on, he concluded, until the earth shall melt with fervent heat. The Supervisors of the Past, was responded to by Dr. J.

W. Craig, ex-supervisor of Riga. The doctor spoke fittingly of the men who have represented the towns and city wards of the county in years that have gone. These men, he said, had, like the immortal dog of the proverb, had their day, but their memory would be ever cherished. Ex -Assemblyman Burritt, "father of the board, was called on to speak 'for The Supervisors of the Present.

If he refused to say that every supervisor was not on a direct path to the legislature or the sheriff's office. Mr. Burritt said, he would not do his duty. The speaker was applauded when he said that every countryman was proud of the city of Rochester. He explained why the greater proportion of taxes should be assessed on the city, and cited figures from assessment rolls to show the relative growth of the city and towns since 1853.

The gentleman from Ogden than referred to several periods in the history of the board, but was careful not to allude to the present Board of Supervisors, saying he feared to do bo. In reference to Our Institutions Over the Hill, Superintendent McGonegal said that the different boards of super visois bad provided buildings for the destitute and criminal classes of the county that were hardly surpassed in the state. The inmates were as comfortable as in any similar insti tutions elsewhere. He extended a cordial invitation to all to come up to the hill when in need. In the absence of Hon.

George A. Goss ot Pittsford, Supervisor Britton responded to the toast, 'The Court House and Jail. "Mr. Britton made a brief speech, but a witty one. The venerable Hon.

F. P. Root of Sweden stood up for Our Granger Supervisors. He said that the farmers were the bone and sinew of the land and formed the principal staple of the nation's wealth. A granger Is a disciplined farmer one who has joined an organization intended to improve and elevate the farming class.

Granger supervis ors never go to Canada to escape justice. The old idea of farmers was to educate their bright sons for the professions, but now they are beginning to reverse this and make farmers of their bright young men, although some drift into other channels and become statesmen. The speaker concluded by stating that he had been a resident of the county si iice 1818. D. C.

Burnum defended Oar City Supervisors in a graceful speech. The representatives of the city in the board formed a body more select than numerous, he said, but the next legislature was yet to be heard from. It was a high compliment to the city supervisors, Mr. Barnum maintained, that um their fellow citizens desired tp increase their number. As the country members were proud of the city, so the members from the city, Mr.

Barnum said, felt pride in the fertile and beautiful lands of the county. The city did not desire tv be divorced from its blooming bride, although occasionally especially in matters of equalization the latter proved the better half. Here Supervisor Carberry jumped up and moved, after a brief speech, but one teeming with eloquent praise of the supervisors, that every bachelor be fined $5 at the next meeting before being allowed to sit down to the feast. Amid the laughter that followed the honorable chairman told the supervisor to consider his motion carried. Then "The County Officials" was responded to by Judge William E.

Werner. "We all know," said the judge, "that the life of an official is usually of a short duration, but yet there are a few who continue to hold office long after their terms expire and perform all its duties except that ot drawing the salary.
