Chautauqua Exercises Devoted to 1 the Hendrick Hudson Celebration. Augustine, March 27-The state St. of Ponce de Leon appropriately leads the first observance of the Tercentennial of Hendrick Hudson. The meeting was held at De Funiak Springs, Flordia, under the auspices of the Flordia Chauof which Wallace Bruce the well tauqua known Brooklyn writer and poet of the Hudson, is president, and the large Auditorium dedicated last February on the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Flordia Chautauqua, capable of accommodating 4,000 people, was well filled. The observance may well be termed national character as almost every state in the Union was represented.

The Chautauqua exercises of the entire week have had close relation to the history and literature of the Hudson. Wallace Bruce delivered a lecture on "Washington Irving." There were pictures thrown upon the screen of the proposed viaduct spanning the Harlem River at Spuyten Duyvil, which will stand as a monument to future generations. Brief mention was made of the naval and military parades and of various celebrations which will take place at the different towns along the banks of the river, and a picture was shown of "'The Half Moon," which vessel will be reproduced by Holland and sent to this country in September as her contribution to this centennial, while by way of contrast. picture was presented of the Steamer "Hendrick Hudson," of the Hudson River Day Line. Reference was made to the new companion boat, "Robert Fulton," now under construction and the appropriateness of joining in this celebration "Hendrick and "Robert Fulton," the one representing the discovery the river, the' other the commercial greatness of the nation through his practical application of steam to navigation Several films of moving pictures were given to illustrate the river as seen by bold navigator and the New York City of to-day, the Palisades, the Highlands, the Catskills, the legend of "Rip Van Winkle." and many other scenes closely associated therewith, which were greatly appreciated by all.

Zabriskie. Kappa Psi Sorority to Give a Dance at the Union League, Easter Wednesday. How can all the Easter programme of Society, as it is now developing, be carried through? Will there be enough peothese events? That is the question that is rising up. For new announcement after announcement is made. Will the fashionable Brooklyn girl have any chance to rest at all in the weeks that immediately follow Lent? Yet another dance is put upon the schedule.

It is that of Kappa Psi Sorority, and it is to be given in the ballroom of the Union League Club on April (Easter Wednesday). Each girl of the Sorority has the privilege of inviting six people, and thus this will be a good sized dance, full of interest. The members of Kappa Psi include many girls of, great prominence in the social world. The list follows: Miss Carrie Bacon, Miss Marguerite Bacon, Miss Gladys Bacon, Miss Gertrude Field, Miss Edith Field, Etta Frank, Miss Mildred Hunter, Miss Katherine Kennedy, Miss Hazel La Frentz.

Engagement of Miss Addie Burgess Murr and Edwin Gates Babcock. Friday's Eagle Society Column made note of the engagement of Miss Addie Burgess Murr and Edwin Gates Babcock. Miss Murr is one of the two daughters of Jacob of 935 Bedford avenue. She is a very charming girl, who has been of much prominence in Hill circles. Mr.

Babcock is a son of Mr. and Mrs. James A. Babcock. Bishop McDonnell Possibly to Open the St.

Vincent Bridge, Euchre and Dance on Easter Tuesday. It was said yesterday that it was well within the' range of possibility that Bishop McDonnell would open the Easter Tuesday Bridge, Euchre and Dance of the St. Vincent Fresh Air Guild. There is no surety as to this, but it seems quite likely. In any event, this Bridge, euchre and dance will be one of chief festivities of the Easter season.

Mrs. Luke D. Stapleton has been put at the head of the reception committee, and Rodolfo A. Correa is to lead the floor In a Loan Exhibition of Five Hundred Prints and Maps at 160 Broadway, Manhattan. THE HEIGHTS IN OLDEN TIME.

Scenes on the Waterfront Indicated by Artists of the Early Nineteenth Century. In the loan exhibition of views of old New York on the ninth floor of the new Lawyers Title Insurance and Trust Com160 pany Building, Broadway, Manhattan, that is to remain on view from to-morrow until April 10, are pictures interesting to Brooklynites. Generally, the collection is notable for having about 50 views that are unique, the entire number being about 500. Around the walls of the big room and on long display tables in the center the maps, have been arranged by J. H.

Jordan, in charge, SO that each example may be easily studied. Among the lenders are H. H. Cammann, H. D.

Colt, John D. Crimmins, J. Clarence Davies, Amos F. Eno, Simeon Ford, John N. Golding, William F.

Havemeyer, Henry Morgenthau, Henry Harmon Neill and George R. Read. Their loans are designated by initials. Besides these the following firms, dealers in prints, have also made loans, J. H.

Jordan, Kruger Wheat Company, Joseph F. Sabin and J. 0. Wright Co. It appears that the first sky-line picture of New York was drawn from a view from the foot of Pierrepont street, Brooklyn.

It is about five feet in length and was published by M. Dripps, from an original drawing, as stated in the picture, "owned by J. C. Brevort of Brooklyn" in 1798. The sky-line shows only a low series of buildings, all of them having about the same elevation that the ship stores buildings have now along South street, with the exception of a church spire, pointing upward, here and there.

Even more interesting, as showing the way a part of the Heights appeared, according to the artist, in 1823, is a view of the lower part of Manhattan Island. Just what part of the Heights is meant is not indicated, but there are massive boulders in the foreground, and down an abrupt slope to the more remote ground there are scattered evergreen trees, picturesquely distributed. The New York water line is shown from South Ferry as far north as Catherine Slip. Local conditions in the early part of the nineteenth century, however, are best shown in a clear and perfectly preserved view across the East River from Brooklyn, a colored print from a painting by J. W.

Hill. The print is dated 1837 and the scene is from a spot in Brooklyn about opposite the Astor House, but a little farther than that up the water front. A street in Brooklyn along this water front is shown, and in the foreground are the roofs of houses, the picture having evidently been painted from a roof top. Some of these roof tops in the foreground show the ornamental balustrades along the cornice, a style that was the architectural fashion in those days. Animation is lent by the appearance of a woman and child on the roof, leaning over to look at the East River scene beyond and below.

The woman was attired in the height of fashion, including the poke bonnet of those days. In the street, on the hither side of the handsome houses mentioned, a man is pictured engaged in some commercial pursuit. The print producer had labeled at the top all of the chief points of interest in buildings across the river. The engraver W. J.

Bennett. Another interesting view is a copperplate of 1803, engraved by William Birch, from a painting by S. L. Seymour. There are two examples of this view, one of them showing a white horse in the foreground and the other with the horse re- moved, probably because it did not harmonize with the rest of the scene, and a group of women's figures was made to take its place.

The view is a clear and beautiful one. Indeed, much of this early work in copperplate, wood, etc. shows a careful and conscientious handling on the part of craftsmen. A stirring picture of the military life of the very early nineteenth century is a colored view of the assembling of the First Division of the State Artillery. Not much artillery is shown, but the rank and file are mounted on horses, on either side of the picture, while the officers in the center, also mounted, are giving and receiving orders with the most exalted dignity and courtesy.

In the command are pictured the Brooklyn Horse Guards, tightly reining in their chargers, that curve their necks, with high mettle, and look fiercely toward an imaginary enemy. It pictures the days of when Clinton was governor of New York. The only direct picture, taking in Brooklyn, is in color, and it was made when, save for a few buildings along the East River water front there was no of Brooklyn that could be seen, to speak of, from the standpoint of the artist in New York. The view is practically to the eastward, and the New York buildings are most prominent. Brooklyn apline of green hills, of pears as a long stretching back from the water front.

Not since the Grolier Club exhibition in 1897 has there been such a collection of old New York views as that one to be seen now, and it is declared that this excels in number and uniqueness that of the club named. The arrangement is, so far as possible, in chrono- ler, logical order. The earliest view, that of "Fort Niew Amsterdam op de Manhattan" of about 1656, is, it has been rather recently determined, after long search, a colored map in which Long Island is denominated "Lange Eyland, alias Matocwacos." Second comes map from Ogilby's "America," and a a M. third is the Allard map of 1679, published the in the "One Hundred Views," and also ers; Schenck's variation. A good water color of painting is that of the old Cruikshank house at the southwest corner of Greenwich street and Beaver Lane, now Murray street, It is a low, little house, the shingled on the sides, and with an oldtime lantern fastened to the lintel of the door.

Many will remember the old Dutch Church in Nassau street, on the site now a occupied by the Mutual Life Company, for and used until the early '80s as the post office, when General James was post- as master of New York. A water color picture of the church when it was new ing shown; it was founded in 1727, and the building, although only 100x75 feet, was' and imposing through its symmetry. the The first official map of New York, authorized in 1807, is shown; it was the be first laying out of the streets, and one these was extended to the Harlem River. on the upper West Side, through will series of indicated marshes. The city surveyor was William P.

Bridge. As to the views from all directions and from all possible points of view the number them seems interminable. Incidents the city's history are also seen pictured, such as views of the great fire in 1837: the Crystal Palace of 1853 and its destruction by fire on October 5. 1858: Barnum's, at Ann street and Broadway, before and after it was burned: Franconi's -covered Hippodrome. with hexagonal corner building.

on the site the former Fifth Avenue Hotel: a photograph of the oid Goelet mansion on Fifth avenue, where a cow was kept grazing for many years, while the real Mail key to the front door. an unwieldly looking affair. is fastened to the mountphotograph. Old public buildings, including many churches, are on view. and there is a view of an early scheme for an elevated railroad on Brondway, 22 WELL-KNOWN TEACHERS GRADUATES OF ADELPHI Many of Them Worked for Degree While They Taught in Daytime.

UNIQUE RECORD OF COLLEGE. Women Are Now Principals, Assistant Principals and Teachers in High Schools. Ever since Adelphi College was established in Brooklyn it has been the friend of the public school teachers of the bor- ough. It has prepared large numbers for examination for promotion, either as teachers in the upper grades or as principals. But it has done far more than this.

It has given many of them an opportunity to earn the degree of bachelor of arts which has enabled them to All the highest positions in the school system, which they occupy to-day. These women have done the work at the same time they have taught in the schools. It was not easy, because the work at Adelphi College is as good as that in the best colleges in the country, but the satisfaction of having earned the parchment repaid them for the many hours and nights of labor. President Levermore and the faculty of Adelphi College are proud of these women, of their acquirements, and of their success. Adelphi College is unique.

Governor Hughes, Many dors and Men of Prominence Every-, where Have Also Been Invited. It is expected that there will be more men of national, state and local importance present at the celebration of tha opening of the Queensboro Bridge on June 12 than have ever gathered together for an occasion of the kind. President Taft, Governor Hughes, many ambassadors, members of Congress, governors of states, and engineers of world wide fame have been invited. The entire city ernment, headed by Mayor McClellan, will be present. Men of prominence in every walk of life will also attend.

The ceremonies attending the opening of the bridge, on June 12, will be elaborate and the events to follow will be the most interesting that have ever been witnessed at the dedication of a public improvement in this city. The Queensboro Bridge will on Tuesday be utilized by the public. There will be no official opening. The barriers at either end of the roadways and promenades will be taken down and the public may use and inspect. But the big cantilever structure will not be officially opened to public use until June 12.

Cassier's Magazine, one of the leading scientific English monthlies, says, in recent number: "No bridge thus far built excites so much interest as the Queensboro Bridge, in New York City. Engineers everywhere will watch it with care, as they have studied its principle and construction. For the uses it is purposed it is a monument of great importance and assuredly deserves the great rejoicing on its dedication." The leading engineering magazines of Edinburg, Dublin, Paris. Berlin, Vienna, St. Petersburg and other European centers contain long articles on the boro Bridge and announce the intention of engineers to be present at its The Engineer, published in London, among other things, says: Queensboro Bridge is not a local improvement.

It is a cantilever bridge of such immensity that it deserves the study of engineers and public men everywhere. It is a a scientific monument of utility. New York and the whole country should be proud of it." No other structure of its kind has had SO much discussion in the public prints of this country. Because it is the biggest cantilever bridge in the world for general usage; because it has been criticised and discussed more than any other structure of the kind ever erected in this city, and for other reasons, it has become a matter of importance and interest all over the country. When William H.

Williams. over a year ago proposed a celebration fitting for such a monument of engineering skill and public utility, his proposition was seconded by the most influential men in the Greater City. For over a year a committee composed of of prominence in every borough of then city hag been at work sedulously to the end that the opening of the bridge should be celebrated with as much pomp and stance as possible. For one week, June 12-19, there will 1 be a revel of enjoyment and pleasure. At first the committee thought that the proper time to celebrate the bridge would be when it was completed.

But the big structure will not be entirely completed until the first of June. While on Tuesday the Mayor, the bridge commissioner and a few others will ride over the bridge in An automobile and order the barriers taken down for public use of the promenades and the roadway, the work of finishing the tracks and the wires will still go on. The use of the roadway and the promenades will not interfere with this work. Most of the money to be expended in the big celebration has been subscribed by citizens from all over the Greater City, who realize the beneficent effects of this aerial highway over the East River. That it is more than a local matter, 11- teresting only a section of this great city, can be shown by the action of the federal government.

Because of its strategical importance the federal government will join in the celebration by sending federal soldiers and sailors to participate in the big parade. The procession that will march up Fifth avenue and over the bridge will be the biggest affair since the Dewey parade in this city, and in point brilliancy and spectacular effect and numerical strength will surpass that one. Every kind of an organization in the city will be represented and the floats in the historical. educational and industrial sections will be the most elaborate ever seen in New York. At night tons of fireworks will be set off and the bridge will be illuminated in a most gorgeous manner electricity.

One of the features of the celebration will be the marine parade. one whole week the Long Island City plaza will be given over to a carnival that will attract thousands. A NEW FORM OF SERVICE.
