M. Howe's Sons opened last evening thoir furiiituro store, lately rebuilt at tho corner of Kedford avonuo and i'ulton street. The j.laeo was brilliantly illuminated, there was good musio and a very largo attendance. Tho firm llrst opened their Bedford avenuo store Inst Sept ember. It was destroyed by (being one of tho conflagrations Unit nia'lelast wlntor notable in the annals of thu (Ire department).

Tho new store Is a very handsome and imposing structure, one of tho chief ornaments of tho Bedford section. In tho center of which it Is located.

"When I moved here," said Mr. Howe lost evening, "I exported to havo a hard struggle to build up trade. I know that tho stand was good but people woro not used to doing thoir shopping so far up town. I plunged boldly in an unknown soa and Instead of trying slow nnd cautious proceeding I offered the people tho biggest and best of stores from the beginning. It paid immediately.

The business I llnd hero is far beyond my expectations. I believo these corners will bo tho Unost retail stund in Brooklyn in ten yenrs." The opening will continue to day Bnd Saturday with music each aiteruoon and evening. Borne of tho visitors who inspected and nd mirod the handsome new store and its contents last evening were Charies Cooper, Howard M. Smith, Eugeno G. Blackford, Jnstino i'rloe, Fred Westcott, J.

"After Dark," with various realisms, is to be presented at Holmes' theater next week.

It has been seen in this city on sundry occasions anil has justified managerial enterprise in securing its return. "The Silver King" will be revived next at tho Grand opera house. Its only recent performance in Brooklyn was that of Wilson Barrett, its assistant author, at one of tho local theaters. Ovid Musin, the violinist, will give a concert at Association hall on tho night of Thursday, the 13th. under the auspices of the Bryant Literary association.

PARK THEATER, Of the tliroo pieces on Rosina Voices' programme lost night, but one was new to this city. "Snusot" and "A Double Lesson have each been Been here before, bnt Brooklyn theater boots are not familiar with Frederick W. Sydney's "Wig and Gown." If the applause which greeted it was any indication of tho feelings of the audionce, they were sorry that they had lived so long without seeing so good a thing. It is the story of a young woman who enters the rooms in the London temple of the young man whom she is to marry while he Is out. She finds his barrister's wiganduown and puts them on just to see how she will look.

Then she finds the photograph of a young woman whom she mistakes for her rival. Her fiance chum eutors and takes her for a youth from the country come to read law with him. Then the fiance himself appears, and the two men talk of yachts and dogs which have girls' names, and the poor girl begins to burn with jealous rage. Of course everything is explained, but there are lots of fun whilo he confession lasts. Miss Voltes was the girl, Walter Granville her fiance and Ferdinand Gottschalk the chum.

Felix Morris appeared only in "A Double Lesson," and he. was Primmer, the Scotch butler, horrified at the frivolity of his mistress. To night M. Marius will appear with the company. At tho matinee to morrow every woman in the audience will receive a copy of "The Rosina Overture." THE PADEREWSKI RECITAL, Paderewski played at the Brooklyn Academy of 'Music again yesterday, and for the first time since it became known who and what he was, there were vacant seats, though not many of them.

The audience was enthusiastic, and the artist, who knows that all his audiences are to be so, took his recalls with complacent dignity made responses when he had to. Ho played with his always admirable correctness, clearness, self poise, reserve and insight. Ho is the one pianist now before the public who. does not cloy, for his work, though sentimont has a largo part in it, never degenerates into the sentimental. It is fine and foeling, bnt it is also manly and deep.

His programme was not adhered to with the strictness that a player ought always to observe with his nudiehoe, for it causes people to dilate with wrong emotions and leads to subsequent criminations in amateur circles, whori changes aro made. For instance, when ho should nave been playing Schubert's serenade he was playing "Hark, the Lark," another song by tho same composer, and just as good a one, oven with Liszt's amendments, and when he played something by himself it was not tho variations that were set down for him. The opening pieco was a varied melody by Haydn, a harmless musical lollipop that took on a dignity with his treatment of it. and that was strictly in piano range, for it is noticed that this admirable artist never goes outsido of the literature of the piano for his subjocts, or his results. Bubinstein, with whom he is now ami then compared and whom he does not resemble, is fond of orchestral effects in some of his playing, and is even capable of such enormities as that of playing with the loud pedal continuously open, to get what he calls an organ roll, to a Bach number.

When a school girl does the same thing and the chords of the tonic and dominant are poured inbarmonioualy together, one hopes for laws and prisons; but the ear and hand of Paderewski are too fine for such things. He cannot be false to his art if he would; truth to its form and spirit are temperamental with him now. The seoond piece was a Beethoven sonata, opus 111, nnd a Beethoven sonata, except it be the "Moonlight" or one or two others, is a thing to be dreaded in most cases, for there is a good deal in all scnatas that is not beautiful; it was a kind of concession to custom to write them, just as it was a concession to custom in tha old days fo write under fifteen, heads, to compose novels only in three volume form, as thoy do in England to day, and just as old masters, when they wanted to prove that they were old masters, painted crucifiiions. But Paderewski imparted to this also a seriousness that now and anon touchod the majestic and made one think of the same author's symphonies. In technic it was delightful, so perfectly wore the means adjusted to tho results, and eTon in so small a matter as the trill the cotes cams out as liquid and limpid as the flow of a brook.

Schumann's Papillons were made to frolic aid flutter as daintily as ever butterflies did'in summer weather, but there were pretty solid butterflies in the composer's mind at times. The techiical triumphs wore made in one of LiBzt's saage Hungarian rhapsodies and the same writa 's setting of Schubert's "Erl King," in which the vhole tragedy of the song is described more potently and picturesquely than words can do it; (ho roll of thunder, the plunge of the horse, the idsidious voico of tho goblin, the tremulous cry otthe child and the grave notes of tiio father's voice Eounding clear to tho imagination, in tho dramatic and forcible performance of the musician. It the Chopin numbers the player was spiritual audtender. without being mawkish and sickly. The iecond impromptu, a mazurka, thu thirteenth rpcturne and a couple of waltzes were played iharmingly and a Mendelssohn song without worcs was given as a recall pieco.

A ballad by himsuf and the scherzino of his own writing that ie has offered hore on another occasion were payed perfectly. After the Liszt rhapsody Palerowski was recalled and gave Chopin's crale song with exquisite finish and feeling. Tto performance yosterday was the last that he vill give in Brooklyn this season. He is to appear at Carnegie music hall to morrow afternoon aid of a number of charities. On that occasion he will give his conoorto with tho New York Symphony orchestra.

A Greater "Variety in Styles and Some Marked Changes. A Stroll Tbronch Tnllordnm and nn Interview, About the Coming Tho Single Breasted Sack Coat Popular and tho Cerrcct Overcoat. Once moro tho flight of tho months brings us to another spring season and forces the question of what to wctr upon tho allention of all main citizens as well as upon that of tho feminine portion of society. A stroll through tnilordom nnd an interview with a recognized authority upon sartorial matters by an K.volk representative procurod tho materials for a vry complete review of tho coming stvlei. Purintr the coming spring and summer there will be agroater variety in the stylos of men's dress than for many years, snd tho styles will be much more artistic than, and generally decidedly different from, those of last season, and almost as widoly separatod from those of a year ajo in finish and appearance as these were from tho stylos that prevailed in IHS'J.

The croat inoroaso in longth that Is fashionable for all coats over that of last season (with the exception of tho double breasted frock, which then extended itself with startling and prophetic su 1 denness) imparts of itself au expression to a suit that unmistakably distinguishes it from one of the same tyue that was made thou, aud makes it impossible for its older brothoror bix mouths or ono year ago, howovor well it may havo been kept, and dosplto tho utmost skill of the pressman, to masquerade as of tho vintage of Other changes which, thoucb lesi marked, contribute to the altered appearance of the fashionable suit from tho suit of last year aro a slight increase in the length of tho vest in front, but not at the sides, the narrowing of tho opening of dress vests, the lower opening of all coats and thoir slightly incroased fullness of skirt and trifling decrease of the kneo width of the trousers and an almost severe plainness of finish single largely taking the place of the double stitching, arid the vest with or without buttons, almost entirely superseding the imitation cuff in the finish of rloevos. Fashionable fabrics aro beautiful and plainer than they wero last season; the large plaids, aggresslvo checks and wide stripes, as woll as bright colors, are all unpopular, except that fancy vesting, though of loss brilliancy of color and more modest of design than heretofore, are plentiful and will be much worn. For day dress tho double breasted and cutaway frock made of worsted, cheviot, thibet and liir soft woolens, generally in black, brown, blue black or dark gray mixtures, with the vest and trousers of the same material, or with the coat and trousers of tho same, but the vest of silk, wool, marseillos or some other material, either fancy or plain, or with tho coat and vost of the some, but the trousers of moderatoly light goods of quiet design, or with the vest of whito or fancy and the trousers of striped or chocked material. are about equally divided in favor anion: good dressers. For moruini; weddings the three button cutaway Is gonerally worn, but for au afternoon wedding tho double breasted frock is almost invariably xreferred.

The double breasted frock is tho dressier as well ns the more elegant and costly of tho two and is now in material proportions and finish more artistic than ever before, Bineo the introduction of its hi'h collared, wasp waisted and ridiculously full skirted protot3pe. It has shoulders of natural width, woll curved side scums, sleeves of medium width. finished with a vest closed with three buttons, and well peaked lapels spaced for five button holes, which are, as tho collar is, also shirlitly rounded at the corners; it rolls to tho third hole, has skirts that aro somowhnt fuller than heretofore, is singly stitched as noar tho edge as possible, and is silk faced to tho buttonholes. The vest, of whatever material it is made, is usually single breastod, and tho bottom is woll slanted down to the front, and tho opening is about 15 inches long from tho back center of tho collar. The collar always has a straight crease, and is generally notched The trousers fall straight about the legs from thigh to foot, the average knee width being 1RHJ to 19 inrhos, while the width at tho bottom ranges from 17 to IS inches.

Tho cutaway frock, whether a ono, three or four buttoner, is. for day ur half dress, made of the same materials as the doublo breasted frock and has edgeH aud sleeves finished in the same way. Tho throe buttoner is, of course, generally worn, though the four buttoner for very tall and slim and the ono buttoner for short and corpulent men aro often preferred. The shoulders havo natural width; the nlecves are slightly shaped on the inside seam and aro of moderate width, and the roll from tho top of lapel averages oi inches in length. The waist seam is wel slanted downward to the front edge, and tho bottom button and corresponding buttonhole are inches above it.

The fronts aro well cut away below the bottom button, bnt with only a slight curve to within about inches of the bottom of the skirts, when they arc boldly rounded, the skirts being quite narrow at tho bottom. A ticket pocket in tho waist seam, but Hapless, nnd a welted outside broast pocket aro usually worn. Tho same vest and trousers as those described above for wear with the double breasted frock are correct. For half dress the costumes alroady doscribed for day dress are suitable, beaido which there will also be worn a double breasted frock of hair striped light gray or mixed worsteds, or of brown or gray mixed cheviot or unfinished worsted, or of soft woolen, with a vest and trousers of the samo material. Tho variety of material is.

in fact. Croat, and of color and design almost infinite. A coat of this kind is the same ns for day drt in style and finish, except that it may have an outside breast pocket. Cutaways of quiet mixtures, or fine stripes or motlest checks with side flaps, aro also popular, with tho vest and trousers to match. With either of these suits, however, a whito or washable vest may at any time be worn and during the summer months will bo very popular; but whalevor tho material may be tho same vest as alroady described will bo correct, and tho samo may bo said of the trousers.

For business wear the ono, two or three button cutaway with side flaps and of roughish material of any pattern from gray mixtures to over plaids, single stitched of edge, low of roll, attenuated of skirt aud with all corners well roundel away, is much worn, as is also the double breasted sack. Tho latter is confined to no "pent up Utica" of fabric or design, but disports itself in plain cheviots, mixtures, stripes, checks, pluids and a few indescribable designs in cassinioros. serges, worsteds, whipcords and many other kinds of material. It is shapely, but not close fitting in tho back anil averages inches in length. It has well curved sido sunns, low shou lder scams and no underarm cut; tho lapels are well peaked, have the corners slightly rounded and range from to inches in width and tho collar is li inches narrow.

The edges are evenly spaced for five holes, the lowest bciu'4 about li inches above the bottom and the roll extends to the third. All the pockets havo flaps to go in or out and tho sleeves are cither fiuishei plain or with a vent closed with ono button. Sometimes, when made of dark or plain or nearly plain material, tho silk is extended to the end of the buttonholes. The most popular coat, howovor. for business purposes, is the single breasted sack, whether it is straight or front, with tho fronts rounded at the bottom, of course; ora ono.

a three, or a four button cutaway. It may be made of any material in tho market that is not especially adapted for day or evening dress, or for overcoats from a homespun to a worsted, and may have all I he pockets finished with in or out flaps, or with a breastpocket, but that only, welte t. or with breast pockets, and those only, patched on. or with patch pockots ou the hips also. It averages 31 inches in length and is shape.

1 to the form in the back; has well carvod si le seams, but no underarm cut. and has shoulders of moderate width with low cut shoulder seams. The roll ranges in longth from tho top of tho lapel from oii to ti inches, and is a step or ular an 1 lapel notch to inches wide; closes with four buttons, if the fronts are tho lowest being nine inches above the and has the lower corners boldly rounde l. The sleeves are finished witii a plain vent or one closed, with one, two or three The throo button cutaway sack should have the fronts cut away from a point high enough to show one button of tho vost, and tho buttoner from a point low enough to completely conceal tho vest. The ono buttoner should show considerable of the vest and should have the fronts moderatoly curved from the top of tho lapel to just below tho bottom butt, when there they should bo boldly rotiud.

V. sts for business woar should alwaj's be sin'io i.renstod, with either five or six buttons, and loiv. 'i i average collar length of 15 and a fuil 'e njthofao inches. They will havo, as a rule, eied collar with a straight crease; but an vet, opening tho same, is likoly to bo worn as the season advances.

lie Did 5ot Want to Sec Frntcrnal Orrranlzaf ions riaced at the Mercy the Insurance Department Leader (Juiirley Has a Few Pointed Words to Saj How Assemblyman Roche's Bill Came to Be Ilecommltted. Spoci.il to tho EaRle. Albany, N. April 7 The insurance companies doinir business in tho stato of Now York came within an aco ot winning a signal victory yesterday afternoon. They placed their interests in the hands of Assemblyman liocho of New York, who introduced a bill Rivinc the superintendent of insuranco power to either facilitate or block tho operations of tho fraternal organizations which menace tho supremacy of the corporations organized for insurance purposes pure and simple.

Assemblyman Hennessey of Brooklyn didn't quito soo tho force of giving tho Insurance dopurtment autocratic powors. With a conscientious Interpretation of tho proposed new law ho had no idea of quarreling, but ltoj al Arcanum, the Order of Tonti and other great interes's were nt stake, including among others those of tho Ancient Order of United Workmen, and to placo these interests in tho hands of any but supreme legislativo authority would, he thought, be an exceedingly dangerous departure. Accordingly, Mr. Hennessey had an interview with Mr. Roohe, who is a complaisant assemblyman from Now York, and who promptly agreed with him and consented to insert an appropriate amendmont.

Just before Kocho's bill was called up yesterday Mr. Honnessey asked this question: "Have you put in any amendment excepting fratornal organizations from the operation of this bill?" "No," was tho response. "The insuranco department doesn't think It necessary." "Woll, I think it necessary," retorted Mr. Hennessey. "I don't propose to give the in uranco department power to wipe out fraternal organizations so far as their operations in this stato are concerned." Mr.

Roche did his level best to mollify tho Brooklyn assombiyman. Ho had much to say about the limitless wisdom of those who diroot insurance department affairs, but he didn't remind the local ropresontativo of tho fact that Insurance companies have no lovo for fraternal associations aid that their obliteration would be of incalculable value to the concorns making a business of insurance. Tho conversation with Mr. Kocho not being entirely satisfactory, Mr. Hennessey moved to recommit the bill when it was called up.

He addod that Roche had promised to incorporate an amendment and supplemented this statement by quoting an opinion written by Mr. Brewster. In this opinion the ox United States attornev general ex pressed himself in unqualified terms, saying among other things that the passage of the bill would give the old insurance companies a virtual monopoly and crowd out the fraternal organizations. Assombiyman Roche defended his bill by declaring that tho insurance superintendent had given him tho most satisfactory assurances. It was by no means proposed to wipe out the fraternal organizations.

Assemblyman Hennessey Have the representatives of the fratornal organizations assured you that nothing of tho kind, in thoir opinion, is contemplated? Assemblyman Roche confessed that he had received no such assurance. Assemblyman Hennessey My private opinion is that you don't know much about your own Dili ana never naa a reasonably clear idoa of It. Assemblymau Roche Well, I will accept your amendment. At this point Leader Quigley came to the front. The bill, he said, was bad and vioious in principle.

It wiped out good provisions of law and invested the superintendent of insuranco with entirely to much power. He was tirod of having bills sent to the house by commissions and bureaus created by tho legislature. The latter was voting awav too many of its own powers. Already it had passed a bill giving the committee on revision not only power to draw up laws, but to actually amend legislative enactments. Assemblyman Ainsworth attacked tho bill and asked its author to explain certain sections oi it.

Mr. Hennessey pressed hi9 motion to recommit and Roche, making a virtue of Bincority, acquiesced. At this late stage of the legislative game recommittal means extinction, so that tho fraternal organizations may thank Assemblyman Hennessey for steering them clear of some ugly, if not inevitable, complications. PICTURES OF THE OOLCMBIAS PARADE. Land and Water View Shown by the Academy of Photography.

There was an excellent display of lantern slide work by the members of tho Brooklyn Academy of Thotography, last evening in tho gallery of the Art association, on Montaguo street, A flno audience was In attendance. The slides shown were a number of exquisite landscape and marine views and pictures of the Columbian parade last October, beginning with fie naval pngoant and followed by tho military parade in New York and the parado in Brooklyn on October 21. The views showed the war ships In tho bay, the street soenes during the military displays, tho inoro striking decorations on the public buildings nnd tho scenes around the momorial at Prospect park. The landscape views which preceded tho Columbian views, were exhlbitod by Mr. Frank La Manna, and Mr.

F. D. Reed described the Columbian pictures. The slides woro the work of the members of tho society and many ot them were very picturesque and striking. Some views in Prospect park gave un admirable idea of the picturesque and artistic bits of landscape that are to bo found there.

The pictures of tho Brooklyn parado were very good. No attempt was made to give a connected series, but scenes were caught hore and there which gavo a clear idoa of the striking features of the celebration. FARMER RAUSCH HAS FOUXD HIS WIFE. She la In Scranton, and He Has Followed Her. Farmer Rauseh of Long Swamp, whoso wife deserted him for a younger and handsomer man last week, has at last located the runaway couple at Scranton, Pa.

When Rausch's young wife eloped with Adam Schwab, a laborer on the farm of a neighbor, sho took with her Rausch's two children and the result of several years' savings. With an officer tho farmer spent several days searching for the couple. It was feared they had gono to Germany, but now detectives have traced tho couple to Scranton. Rausch started for Pennsylvania yesterday with tho determination to bring back his two children and money. He cares nothing for his wife sinco her elopement.

Rausch is over 40 years of age, while Mrs. Rausch is but 22. TVTE5TT FIFTII WARD DEMOCRATS. The Twenty fifth ward Democratic association hold a most uncommonly brief meeting last niKht in the wigwam on the corner of Reid and Jefferson avenues. George E.

BAPTIST SOCIAL WI0S. The Baptist Social'union of Manhattan island held a meeting at the Hotel Savoy, New York, last night. Ono hundred and fifty guosts sat down to dinner. The guests of tho ovening were General Stewart L. Woodford of Brooklyn and Joseph Howard, ir.

They spoke on "The Greater New York." General Woodford advocated the union.

P. John S.

Wis of Virginia eanio over from New York lust night to dine tit the I'nion League club and talk to the metnl ers about lioput.lioun ism. Demoeraey and Mr. Cleveland. Those who were present wre g.vi of it. They heard some plain homely things said about tho party, hard things about the I lemoerntic party and o.xtremely interesting si uintlons about Mr.

Cleveland nnd his administration. But th" most radical dissenter from th" views set forth must havo listened with close attention to the easy, graceful, genial speaker, bubbling over with kindly humor, emitting witticisms that fairly sparkled at tin; expense of both political parties, and breathing all tho timo patriotism and sincerity of purpose. John 8. Wise, with his amplitude of figure, his full, round, smooth shaven, jolly, but withal strong, face, and th" unconscious dignity of his carriage, has nn engaging stage presence which goes fur to dispose his auditors favorably toward film before ho begins to speak. seem to take ou the altitude at onco of conversation with overy Individual in his audience.

With one hand tn a trousers or a waistcoat pocket aud tic other free lor the not Irequeut or extravngaiil gestures he uses, til" orator makes lus listen. easy l.y the exhibition he gives himself of comfort and enjoyment. A not musical but a Well governed, not unpleasant voic dovoid of stridency in even tho most intense utterances of the speaker carries 110 degree attention off by striving aftr oratorical effects from tie thoughts his iii'dsive, well formed, plainly phrased sentences convey. are some tip' things Wise scattered before tie I'nion nguers: "To come here to night and talk about the Republican party seems like holding a coroner's inquest on ourselves. I have heard of physician so devoted to his pro ession that when he was nearly appr.ia liing death he noted carefully every symptom, holding his wnteh in his hand to time his pulse, noting his temperature aud so on.

But 1 havo yet to hear of a tnau'B sitting up to hold a post mortem on himself. The Republican party is alive, however. It seems to have been so much taken up in committing hari kari thut no time ha. boon left to take care of the corpse. 1 will savin passing that the new scheme of organisation by election districts which the party in Kings county are consi.

hiring is excellent. I know from p' rsonal experience that by means of such organization we were Richmond to double our vote. But 1 cauu) huro to speak of tho features of this recent calamity. There never was such a defeat in tic annals of American politics. Mr.

Cleveland is in, but it is hard to tell who is. I rather lika Cleveland. lie is no', enough of a Democrat to bo objectionable. There hasn't been a Tammany bravo seen in Washington since the inauguration. I do not say thai Tammany will not got anything, but the plums are going pretty hist.

The dealings between Mr. Cleveland and the Tammany leaders are thc.se of men who do business together, but do not Hue each other. I venture to say that now. with one month gone, the administration has nothing that can be called an organised party support in the Empire state. Mr.

Cleveland's following is characterized by the utmost incongruity, nud from tho course Jie has Laken ho is t.ound to try to ride two horses, each pulling In a dilfereut direction, that bo cannot control. The situation of tho administration Is an interesting study. 1 lieve that Mr. Cleveland roulies that he cannot hold together the incongruous elements of the people who elected him. He is more bold titan ho would if he did not realize that ho will not be a candidate again, and I believo be is striving to find some m.

ans of infusing into tho heterogeneous masses who supported him some motive for cohesion. The thing that is called the Democratic party is not a party at all It is simply tin agglomeration of even thing that is opposed to Republicanism. Mr. Cleveland is utruid to call a session of congress to consider the 'robber' tariff' because he doesn't know what tho discord. nt elements of his party may do." Tho speaker like nod the Republican party to the obi maid who cannot realize that her youthful attractiveness Is gone and continues to wear spit curls and faded ribbons.

Tii" Republicans, ho declared, should realize that conditions change. llepublieanisoi in tho South," 1:0 continued, dved a set l.a. of ten years under tho Harrison administration. There was legs of the South in that administration by half than thero was in Lincoln's while tho war was goiug; on. If the Republican party is going to get into power again it must broaden its lines and adapt its.

dl to the changes of the times. It has split not on principles, but on practices. Let us srielc to our principles. They are the grandest any political party ever had. aud while we watch the Ilglituuit is going on among our iJomocratio friends lot Us not I drawn into iL.

Thero lies a danger. All we havo to do is to wait, and our turn is bound lo come. Ther is only one party iuthls country, and thut is the Republican party; the other is not. a party at all, but a vholo lot of parties hold together by the cohesive power of tho hope of plunder. I'uriliod by adversitv and renouncing the policy of permitting bad men and il politicians to control us.

let us put our shoulders together and wo shall win." I learty applause and a voto of thanks wero accorded tu Mr. Wise itt tho coucluslou of hia remarks. Tho club held a meeting prior to the address nnd adopted resolution. 0:1 the death of Elliott F. Shepard.

The following resolutions, presented by Frau ds II. Wilson, chairman of the executive committee, were also unanimously adopted: Wiivreas. The Cniou Lnguo club of Brooklyn, though avowedly a political club, refrains irom active interference 111 party management, but maintains its right, in common with all earnest Republicans, to criticise hat er seems to it amiss in he nfTuirs of tii. iirt and, in tho 01 ereijo of that right, at its 1 Vi.ruury meetiuff adopted resolutions that a thorough and radical reorgauizatio 1 of th Republican party in Kings county was imp. rai lvely required Ijy existing conditions, which view has also found expression, not only other bodies of organized Republicans, but among the people ami in tn piu l.c press; and net ess.

The new clubhouse of tho Vincentlan union ottached to the parish of St. John tho Baptist was opened last evening with informal exorcises. It is a commodious three story and basement brick and brown stone structure at 974 DeKalb avenuo and well adapted to the needs of the organization. In all tho windows of tho house tho gas burned brilliantly last evening and scores of visitors, escorted by tho members, wandered from apartment to upnrtment, letting go an ejaculation of pleasure now and then as the furniture or arrangement attracted them. Impromptu games were goinir on continually, so that the visitors had tho additional of witnessing the movement of tho club as it will conduct itself when it Is loft to its own oxcluslveness to follow out tho dictation of its constitution, an admirable scroll, which holds tho objoct of tho union to bo che moral, social and intellectual development of tho members."
