ROSLYN NOTES. Entertainment ot the Thursday Afternoon Club by Mrs. Anderson. The Thursday Afternoon club was entertained by Mrs. Katharine Anderson of Brooklyn at Robluhurst, the Roslyn residence of Mrs.

George A. Thager. A varied collection of beautiful stereoptlcon views illustrated Mrs. Anderson's talk on the "Pyrenees," while her singing of folk songs was of great interest. Mrs.

Anderson is at once in sympathy with her audience, for one could hardly be found capable of remaining Impassive to the charm of her personal enthusiasm and magnetism, which are truly inspiring. Mountains, villages, magnificent castles, cathedrals, statuary and court interiors were brightly talked of, with interesting bits of history that had been carefully gleaned from records not generally known. Songs, tender, sweet and sad, were alternated with Jolly dancing roundelays, the accompaniments being by no means secondary in attraction. Mrs. Anderson has the faculty of taking her audience to the life she portrays and which was of such absorbing Interest to iferself.

Her Insatiable thirst for knowledge and her ability to share with others enables her to give pleasure few have the opportunity to acquire or dispense. This has been a Brooklyn year for tho Thursday Afternoon club, as its noteworthy meetings have been those when it has had as its entertainers such women as Mrs. Truman Backus, Mrs. Abby Sage Richardson, Mrs. Olive Thorn Miller, Miss Smith, Mrs.

Field and Mrs. Anderson. This interchange of courtesies between town and country clubs has proved most enjoyable and, it is hoped, may continue with stronger bonds another year. The closing song of Mrs. Anderson was in Spanish, a rollicking dance tune, made more effective by the assistance of the Misses Phillips, who played the tambourine and castanets.

Miss Gertrude Phillips used these with all tho grace and charm of a Spanish girl and, had she been in costume, would have made a veritable senorita. Among the large number present were Mrs. Edward Willets, Mrs. Alfred Ludlow White, Mrs. Sherwood Coffin, Mrs.

James R. Willets, Miss Adele Coffin, Miss Lila Willets, Mrs. George A. Thager, Mrs. Haydock, Mrs.

Phillips, Mrs. Thomas Mott, Mrs. Thomas Clapham, Miss Patty Mott. Miss Anna Titus, Miss Phillips, Miss Thager, Miss Gertrude Phillips Mrs. Timothy Treadwell, Miss Caroline Hicks, the Rev.

Mr. and Mrs. William Peck, the Rev. Mr. and Mrs.

Mattison. FOLDING OF THE EAGLE. L. desires to know if "some means can be devised for keeping the sheets of the Eagle in place so that readers may be spared the discomfort occasioned by their continually slipping out." Tho Eagle presses are equipped with the apparatus for pasting the sheets in each other, but it was found that a majority of the readers preferred to have the paper without paste. A variety of reasons have been offered for this preference.

One was that the pasted paper was always difficult to turn over without unusual trouble; another urged that the paper without paste could be divided up as occasion offered among several members of a family at once and changed round, thereby serving the greater number of persons in the shortest time; still another reason was urged, namely the paste on the Eagle sheets was objectionable because it encouraged the assembling of roaches and mice in closets, where the attempt was made to accumulate copieB of the paper. As it Is, most people find the Eagle very evenly arranged and easy to fold over for reading. KIUTIIDAY PAItTY OF 31ISS STOOTHOKF. Mr. and Mrs.

George W. Stoothoff gave a birthday party to their daughter, Sadie Elizabeth, at their residence, 1,255 Gates avenue, on Friday evening, which was largely attended. Among those present were Mrs. Charles F. Way, Miss Frank Pryme, Mr.

Seven Pieces of Property Missed "by ravesend Assessors. Th Aprsiregate Value Is Nmirly 300,000 and the Error, Rnd It Not Been Discovered, Might Hnve fnvnlldnteil the Whole Tnx Lery of the Thlrty Urst Ward The Knto The Kings County Journal, In an election extra published to day, contains tho following: It has been the custom of tho Kings County Journal for the past ten years to publish annually In tabular form a full and detailed statement of the annual tax roll, showing the rate In each school district of tho four towns, giving the assessed value3 of the property in each school district, the amount of taxes raised in each district and an Itemized statement showing the purposes for which the money is raised. This requires considerable time and involves Intricate calculations, and Its publication has always been appreciated by the readers of the Journal. This year, as usual, the Journal in preparation of these statistics discovered that In the Thirty first ward seven pieces of property, ot which the assessed value was $270,400, had been omitted from, the tax roll. This property is as follows: Manhattan Beach Improvement company, valued $257,050 Manhattan Beach Improvement company, valued 2,000 Brighton Beach Improvement company, valued 2,000 Brighton Beach Improvement company, valued 2,000 Brooklyn and Brighton Beach Railroad company, valued 4,600 Estate William A.

Engeman, valued 600 Total $268,030 The taxes upon this property last year were Mr. Thomas Farrell, clerk of the board of supervisors, has charge of all tax matters, figures up the rate and tabulates the items, taking for the standard of the values of property the assessment rolls as furnished, by the assessors. The assessment roll of Gravesend was furnished by the board of assessors, comprising Henry R. Williams, Abram R. Cole3 and George H.

Delano. This roll stated that the property in School district No. 4 was valued at $286,320, and all of Bald property was in the sewer district, and upon this statement Mr. Farrell computed the tax rate, showing the rate In this district to be $114.65 upon each $1,000 of valuation, and Mr. Farrell had also announced the rate in all the districts of the town when the Kings County Journal appeared upon the scene.

Supervisor Bennett was also anxious as to the rate and believed It was higher than it should be. He noticed that tho entire valuation for. school district No. 4 for the year 1S04 was hut $286,000, whereas in the year 1893 the valuation for the same district was $550,600. Together with the Journal representative, the supervisor went over the books and detected that all the property in school district No.

4 lying outside of the sewer district had been omitted from the rolls, and that the rest of the town was being charged with the amount it should pay, some $7,000. Mr. Farrell Immediately summoned the assessors, and the rolls are being corrected, which will lower the rate in all the districts of the town, and more especially in school district No. 4. At the present writing the rate has not been ascertained, but any reduction will be appreciated.

It was a fortunate circumstance that the error was discovered In time to have it corrected before the taxes were confirmed, as such an error might have invalidated the whole tax levy. THE GREAT STATISTICIAN TALKS. Mr. Ciottshcrg'er Smashes tlie Morton ITIan's Claims to Flinders. To the Editor of tho Brooklyn Ragle: The papers of last evening contained a so called poll that had been made of 842 election districts of the city, by which it is claimed that Morton would lead Hill 11,732.

It Is very easy to make to order such a bald statement a the numbers of the election district are not given, so there is no possible way of verifying the figures. An analysis shows conclusively that In some Instances there are absolute misstatements, as follows: Palmer. Meyer. Fourth ward says two districts 152 193 There are no such figures for any two of the districts for last fall's elections. It goes on to say: Palmer.

Meyer. Sixth ward, eighteen districts 2.308 3,901 Leaving for the other nine 149 1,152 The nine smallest districts gave Palmer 263 and Meyer 2,157. The above shows clearly that the so called poll Is a gross fraud. If the Intention was to fflve a fair statement, a chancs should be given to verify It. FRANCIS GOTTSBERGER.

P. S. The figures In tho Eagle Almanac of 1894 have been used. Brooklyn, November 3, ISO. (It Is evident the estimate published In the Eagle of the 1st Inst, has demoralized the.

machines; they apparently dare not attack but are evidently trying to divert attention from the city and county tickets to the state ticket and thus Btlr up a feeling that the P.epubllcans are to be big winners In the city and thus prevent the Independent Republicans from voting the city and county reform tickets. Even the so called poll Indicates a vote for the Wheeler ticket of at least 17,000, which goes to show how strong a feeling prevails as to the solidity of the followers of that ticket. Ed. Easle). GAVE A BIRTHDAY PARTY, miss Florence Furmau Remembered By tier Friends.

Edwin Knovrles, Manajrer or the Colombia, De. ii I os That the Frohmans and Abbey, tchneffel Grau Have Had Any Communication With Senator Itnyno'd''. Mr.

Edwin Knowles, manager of both tho Columbia and Amphlon theaters, mado the following statement to an Eagle reporter last night, regarding the new theater proposed by Senator Reynolds and other Brooklyn! tes: "The use of the names of Daniel and Charles Frohman and Abbey, Schoeffel Grau, by Senator Reynolds in connection with his nrnnnKAfl npw thnnrnr wrr nrirA ly unauthorized and 1 am requested by these gentlemen to say that they not only never received any offer of lease or other connection with tho now house, but did not know that a new theater was projected. I will say, furthermore, that any effort to advertise an affair of ttls kind and secure subscriptions through the use of these names, Is something that will not pass muster. The gentlemen that I have named never saw Senator Reynolds and never heard of him. They would not consider any proposition to assume the management of the house, and I am authorized to say for them that all tholr attractions will be billed In tho future as In the past at the Columbia and Amphlon in Brooklyn only. The liberty that has been taken In this matter has made the gentlemen I speak for very angry." The new theater will be on the sito of the old Abbey, on Fulton street.

At a conference between Senator Reynolds and Colonel William Sinn and Walter Sinn hold yesterday afternoon, an agreement was entered upon whereby the veteran manager of the Park theater and his son will bo the lessees and managers of the new house. They have decided to call it tho Montauk theater. An Eagle reporter saw the colonel in his office in the Park theater and asked him to confirm the statement. He said: "The theater Is a settled matter. It will be built.

It will bo as large, if not larger, than any in Brooklyn and of the handsomest possible character. It will be built and controlled by a stock company, in which we havo a block of the stock in connection with several of the prominent Fulton street merchants. In fact, wo were the first to subscribe for the stock after Senator Reynolds We will be the lessees and managers of tho house and have selected a name for it that, we think, will bo very appropriate. It will be called the Montauk theater. It Is a name of considerable local significance and, moreover, a good American name; beside, it gets away from the stereotyped names used throughout the country.

It will he construct ed in a strictly first class manner In every respect and tbe best character of operatic and dramatic attractions will be presented. Wo are determined to give Brooklyn a theater that we think tho city will be as proud of as we shall be. I have been an active manager for over twenty years in Brooklyn and my son, Walter, has been actively associated with me most of tho time. Wo feel that we know the taste of Brooklyn theater goers, and. as we have filled the bill up to tho present time, we aro confident that we can continue to do so.

The Montauk will be opened early in September, 1895, probably the 15th. We are now in negotiation to complete the details. We have engaged first class scenic artists, who will be under the direction of Seymour D. Parker, and who will begin work upon the scenery within a month. This arrangement will not interfere with our management of the Park.

Walter E. Sinn, in speaking of the plans on which the Montauk will be built, said: "The theater proper will begin at the rear of the present Abbey building and will be reached through a highly ornate arcade, the particulars of which appeared in Friday night's Eagl3. This will give an area of about one hundred and twenty five feet in depth, which, owing to the peculiar shape of the lot, will afford an excellont opportunity for tho laying out of large and spacious foyers on each floor. These will be connected with ladles' parlors and smoking rooms, with broad stairs on each side. In addition to these there will be a number of special attractions, which we will introduco.

The house will be built In strict conformity with the new building laws, which means that it will be absolutely fireproof. The material used In the construction will be brick, iron and marble, and wood will only be used In the wainscoting and the flooring. Tho exits will be spacious and numerous and have direct connection on every floor with both Fulton street and DeKalb avenue. The auditorium will be C5 by 75 feet, a height of about 60 feet. The stage will be 50 feet deep from the curtain line and 75 feet wide.

The height to the gridiron will be "5 feet. This will give a stage large enough for any production without making a barn of it. The seating capacity will be as large as any place of amusement in Brooklyn, with an orchestra, orchestra circle, balcony and dress circle. The seats will be handsomely upholstered, wide and comfortable, and the decoration will be In oil instead of water colors, as now generallly used. The electric plant, which will furnish light throughout, will be one of the most complete in the country, and we will havo as fine a working table as science can construct.

It will contain novel features not in use anywhere else. The footlights will be ground rose, and the proscenium light will be of such a character as to do away with the necessity of using calcium lights. In fact, the stage lighting will embrace tone to simulate every condition of the atmosphere that nature provides. There will be over three thousand lights in all. In our travels In Europe last summer we stopped at a place called Olympla where the theater drops were 200 feet In width and where they had a very Ingenious arrangement for hoisting them wtthout the use of hands.

We will have a fly floor for one of these machines and will handle our fly scenery with it. There will be no better scenery in any stock theater in the country than we shall have at the Montauk, and it will be made of fireproof material." Sl'HI'IUSE PARTY TO MISS MAY Qi'IN'N. A snrpriao party was tendered to Miss May Quinn by a largfl number ot her Brooklyn and New York friends oa Wednesday evening at her residence, 5 Willets street, New York.

He Displayed reat allantry at the Yalu. River Fight The American Commnnder or the Chinese Jfan of War Chen Yuen Was Woumleil While on Ihily, but Stuck nrarely lo His Post Aa lie tic Details of Ihe Engagvmeu' Further news of Commander Phllo Norton McGifTin, tho American naval officer In command of the Chinese warship Chen Yuen, has reached this country through tho medium of a copy of the North China Herald and Supreme Court and Consular Gazette. Commander Mc Uiffln's' letters to his mother and brother, who live In this city, were read with vivid interest by readers of the Eagle a short time ago. The family has not heard from Commander McGiCln ot late. The Chinese paper contains an account of tho Yalu river fight.

A portion of the article Is as follows: "Tientsin, September 21 Late last night the Chihlung arrived from Port Arthur with some of the wounded from Tatungkon. There were four foreigners and some Chinese, Major von Hannekin looking very 111 and wounded In the arm and leg, Tyler and McGifTin with slight wounds and bruises. They wero all able to walk. Since the 10th of August, when the Japanese fleet appeared oft Wei Hai Wei, nothing was seen and very little heard of them until the 14th when the Yoshlma and the Nanlwa, coining from the east, stopped off Wei Hai Wei, causing a little excitement and lots of preparation at the forts. After circling around for a little lime they went back slowly to the east again.

The Penjang squadron had left on the night ot the 14th, and then left for Talienwan bay, where it was Joined by the transports full of soldiers. The Chinese squadron of ten Bblp3 conveying transports sailed on the morning of tho 16th inst. for Tatungkou, where it arrived last night. The transports went into On the morning of the 17th, as the squadron lay off Tatungkou, waiting for the transports, the Japanese Heet of twelve ships arrived, aud toward noon formed Into order of battle seaward of the squadron. The Japanese had a great advantage In being outside and having lots of room to maneuver, while Admiral Ting had great difficulty in getting good positions for his big ships.

The battle commenced at noon and lasted until night, when the Jap anese Heet drew off. At Bome time during the engagement tho Chinese lost the Chlh Yuen and the King Yuen, which were sunk, while tne yangwel and the Chao Yung went ashore burning. On these ships there was great loss of life. The Ting Yuen, flagship, and the Chen Yuen, on which was Commander Mc Glfiin, followed the retreating Japanese fleet, but ulght coming on and ammunition getting scarce, the six remaining ships of the squadron crossed over to Port Arthur, arriving there on tlie ISth. Admiral Ting Is wounded In the head.

The Ting Yuen and the Chen Yuen were struck with hundreds of shot and shell, tho upper parts were riddled, but the armor belt has not been pierced in a single place. Another dispatch contains the following: "Tho Japanese paid special attention to the Ting Yuen and her sister ship, the Chen Yuen, which each received several hundred hits from Hotchklss and quick firing guns. Both sides made good practice and there Is no doubt that the Chinese were In no way Inferior to their opponents. There were eight foreigners in the fleet. Mr.

Purvis, the chief engineer of the Chen Yuen, went down with that vessel. Mr. Nichols, gunnery officer of the Ting Yuen, was killed by a shell, and, with the exception of two engineers, who were below during tho fight, the others were all wounded. Commander McGifTin of the Chen Yuen had left the conning tower to bring a fire party forward to put out the flames in the topgallant forecastle of the Chen Yuen, when he was woundod with all his men. Ho could not be taken below under cover and bad therefore to remain on deck.

At about 5 o'clock in the evening, when the fight was raging furiously, the Japaneso fleet withdrew. The Chen Yuen and the Ting Yuen pursued them, and when these two vessels had left the balance of the Chinese fleet a few miles astern five of the best Japanese vessels turned round to renew the fight. A scarcity of ammunition now began to be experienced on the two Chinese men of war. At tho usual rate the ammunition would have lasted about twenty minutes, and over two hours of daylight remained. The Japanese, meanwhile, wero pouring In a.

deadly hail from their five ships, and the Chinese, taking careful aim, were replying once In about three minutes. The Chinese rounded so that the Japaneso headed for the sea, whereupon the latter put off again at full speed. The Ting Yuen and the Chen Yuen chased them, but only for a short distance, returning to tho rest of the Chinese fleet. As a matter of fact, there were only nine Chinese vessels engaged in the fight against twelve Japanese. The eight foreign officers In the fleet did splendid service, Inspiriting the Chinese."
