The Swaml Vivekananda. the Hindu monk, lectured in Historical hall Monday night, under the auspices of the Brooklyn Ethical association, on "India's Gift to the There wore about two hundred and fifty people in tho hall when tho Swaml stepped on tho platform. Much interest was manifested on acruunt of the denial by Mrs. James McKeen, president of the Brooklyn Ramabai circle, which is interested in Christian work in India, of the statement attributed to tho lecturer that the child widows of India were not. protected.

In no part of his lecture was reference made to this denial, but after he had concluded one of the audience asked the lecturer what explanation he had to make to the statement. Swaml Vivekananda said that It was untrue that child widows were abused or ill treated in any way. He added: "It is a fact that some Hindus marry very young. Others marr when they have attained a fair age and some do not marry at all. My grandfathe was married when quite a child.

My father when he was It year3 old and I am 30 years old i nd am not yet married. When a husband dies all his possessions go to his widow. If a widow is poor she is the same as poor widows In any other country. Old men sometimes marry children, but If the husband was wealthy It was all the better for the widow the sooper he died. I havo traveled all over India, hut failed to seo a case of tho ill treatment mentioned.

At one time there were religious fanatics, widows, who threw themselves Into a lire and were consumed by tho flames at the death of tnolr husbands. The Hindus did not believe in this, hut did not prevent It, and it was not until the British obtained control of India that it was finally prohibited. These women were considered saints and in many instances monuments were erected to their memory." recently appointed commissary of the same call said: "Plans for the future, involving im command.

He also said tho mayor was the vassal of the American Protective association and that he had permitted it to introduce religious instruction as part of the public school curriculum. Kessel favorea the organization of clubs which should call mass meetings to ask public officials like Mayor Scbieren to resign. E. A. Curley said among other things that he thought the union must deal eontinuously with public affairs if it was to have a reforming influence.

Old conditions soon return, he said, after a spasm of reform has passed over a community unless agitation is kept alive. He favored the discussion right then and there of the question prompted0 by the strike as to whether the corporations own or the city owns the streets. Principles relating to municipal franchises misht be laid down. "Again," continued Mr. Curley, "we have elected a reform mayor and he has put forward a bill to reform tho public school system providing that the appointment of all the teachers shall bo absolutely in the hands, of one man.

I believe good teachers should be mado to replace bad ones, but this plan is not the one by which to reform the system." At this point the chair called Mr. Curley's attention to the fact that he was digressing and C. A. Haviland got the floor. He said he was in favor of the resolution and added that If the members would wait until the proper time arrives for denunciation it will be mora effective.

John Soden, a labor man from the Fourteenth ward announced himself as being in favor of the resolution because it mentioned neither the Republicans nor the reform Democrats. the time comes," he added seutentiously, "the laboring men will vote for neither of them. This organization can help us if it will." William Pitt Ferguson told the meeting the organization of the union was so thorough with Its branches in the various wards that It would be easy to go on with the work and make it effective. It is a mistake to think the union is disorganized. Secretary Bassett, in connection with Mr.

Ferguson's statement, explained that the quiescence of the union was due to tho fact that after the election many Republican members, finding the Republican party had won, and many Democratic members finding the ring in their own party had been overthrown, had dropped out, saying they were satisfied. But assurance had come to him from numerous sources of the existence of a continued lively interest in the organization. He thought vacancies in the executive committee should be filled as early as possible. Mr. Stewart reverted to the remarks of Mr.

Soden and declared that the time was ripe for the union to gather the best elements of all parties for effective work. F. TV. Jobelmann talked a while and then Mr. Sessions' resolution for tho adoption of a committee of seven, Chairman Low to be also a member, was adopted.

Mr. Low appointed the committee at once. Ho named these members: A. L. Sessions, E.

Tho regular monthly meeting of the Con amount of money which the department had to spend It was unanimously conceded that the farm could not be run any better. Both Controller Roberts and President Stewart, who had never visited the place before, were charmed with the location and expressed the hope that the transfer would be made. After the inspection was over the party repaired to Dr. residence, where his charming wife had prepared a bounteous and tempting dinner which called forth a vote of thanks in her behalf An informal discussion took place at the conclusion in which Controller Roberts said that he recognized the equity of Kings county's claim for some remuneration, but insisted that such a large amount as already mentioned would only militate against tho completion of the transfer. In view of the fact that Mayor Strong of New York city had already sent a bill for introduction at Albany turning over tho care of the insane at Islip and on Ward's island to the state he wanted to sec New York city and Brooklyn considered at the same time and hoped that nothing should bo done for either as being unfair between tbo two.

Commissioner Reeves spoke In the same strain as ho has expressed himself on previous occasions. Ho felt that while $3,300,000 may havo been spent on tho farm, that did not represent Its actual value. Monroe county, he said, came under the state care law turning over buildings worth for an appropriation of $50,000. Assuming that the county farm was worth $1,500,000, which, he 1 .1. ww Tne entertainment will take place at the yiv "lives insease oetnre it nuhpvstioii, liv er troubles, Amphion, through tho kindness of Mr.

in view of the fart that last year it cost $370,000 simply for the maintenance of the department, $100,000 state Insane tax and $120,000 Interest on the S3. 300.000 bonds which had ben spent In Improving tho place, he thought the sooner the county got rid of it the better. Sup. Gretslnger asked him if be (Simis) were a supervisor would he vote to let the farm go for nothing. Mr.

Simis replied that he didn't think he would, but that Inasmuch as he represented a body of people which called out all the humanity in a man th 5 insane he felt that money should not stand in the way of giving them the benefit of state care, which waa so far beyond what tho county could expect to do; that the importance of that decision should make the money question the least important of all. Commissioner Burtis spoke along similar lines, and said that any supervisor whose constituency had not asked him to favor getting rid of the farm at any price, could not be very well posted as to taxes, or they would not want to keep tho place another year.
