The Lawn Party Had to be cloned on Account of the Sain Lord Bussell Will Oo to Gray Gables To-day to See President Cleveland. "NEWPORT. R. Sept. 22.

A heavy tain this afternoon prevented the lawn in honor of Lord Russell of KU--. lowen. Chief Justice of England, and Lady RusselL the residence of Henry White. But the elegant reception that occurred In the house more than made up for the absence of the out-door entertainment. Seldom, If ever before, has there occurred In Newport a social affair where there (were so many highly distinguished persons resent.

reception continued from 4 to the guests being- received by Mr. svnd Mra White and presented to Lord suid Lady Russell. About the rooms were massive palms and plants tastefully arranged. The fireplaces were banked with rare flowers, while in pretty vases were fragrant cut flowers, principally American (Beauty roses. The lawn decorations were, Bf: course, omlttted on account of the rain.

About the piazzas were groups of rare xotlo plants, a score of them forming sua alcove, from which the Newport Band played. The affair was delightfully free rrom formality, and wUl be long remembered by those who attended.

Haadel's Messiah Begins the Weelc To-day's Programme.

WORCESTER. Sept. 22. Many of the annual muslo festivals in Worcester have been opened with Handel's Messiah." Indeed, the practice of beginning the week with one of the great oratorios has been common. To-night, to open the thirty-ninth festival, what was probably the finest performance of Handel's masterwork ever heard here was given In Mechanics Hall.

The big auditorium was crowded. The chorus, numbering about BOO voices, was made up of excellent material, and had been well trained. For Unto Us a Son Is Born and the Hallelujah were rendered with splendid volume. The orchestra of sixty players was In good form. Carl Zerrahn conducted.

The only new-comer among the soloists was the soprano, Eleanore Meredith, whose singing of "1 Know that My Redeemer Llveth" was admirable. Mrs. Carl Alves was the contralto, rendering "He-Shall Feed His Flock in her usual sympathetic manner. W. H.

Rieger and Carl Dufft were the other soloists. At the general orchestral rehearsal under Mr. Knelsel this afternoon, Mme. Nordlca appeared, quite unexpectedly, as her contract releases her from all rehearsal work, and sang Isolde's Liebestod." Both The Messiah and Massenet's Eve were rehearsed this morning. The last-named work will be given tomorrow afternoon, with Mme.

Stone-Barton, Max Helnrlch. and J. C. Bartlett for the solo parts, the full chorus, orchestra, and organ. C.

L. Safford will be the organist. In the same programme will be Dvorak's New World symphony and George W. Chadwlck's setting of Scott's Lochlnvar. for baritone solo and orchestra.

In this. Max Helnrlch will take the solo part, and Mr. Chadwick will be the conductor. To-night Kir Arthur Sullivan's Golden Legend will be sung, with Nordlca, Katharine Bloodgood, H. Evan Williams.

Giuseppe CampanarL and Charles I. Rice as soloists. The only other number on the SrogTarame will be Mendelssohn's Hebri-es overture. BOY CRUSHED BY TROLLEY. Joseph BIcEnery Killed While Play lac In the Street.

Op OF einiiiini VENEZUELA'S NEW INDUSTRIES Maracalbo Has av Steam Laandry, a Beer Brewery and Ice Factory.

Venezuela, notwithstanding her little misunderstanding with England, Is paying attention to the development of ber Industries and the Improvement of her people. United States Consul Plumacher, at Maracalbo, makes the following report: The past year has brought us two new Industries a steam laundry and a beer brewery and ice factory. I have not reported sooner, as I wanted to see if they were successful. Of the first I had but little doubt; but of the latter, I was not sure If It would be possible to manufacture in a tropical climate like Maracalbo, where the standard temperature the whole year round is between 80 to 00 Fahrenheit. The American steam laundry has a capital of 520,000, uaes American machinery, and is under the management of an American gentleman.

In former days we were dependent for washing upon native washerwomen. One's patience was severely tried. as we had often to wait three and four weeks before the washing was returned. We our new shirts would return without buttons and ruined from the beating on the stones at the lake shore; we had the sad conviction that the male friends of our washerwomen would enjoy the use of our clothes at least for a fortnight, and we had the constant fear of contracting some skin disease. Since the establishment of the Maracalbo Steam Laundry all these disagreeable factors have vanished.

We are well served, can have our washing at a short notice, much cheaper, and returned in good condition, and we. can. like other civilized citizens, enjoy well-starched shirt bosoms, cuffs, and collars. In connection with the brewery is an ice factory of great capacity; the beer Is sold to the retailers in barrels of 7 to 100 litres, and is retailed by them at 5 cents a glass. The beer Itself is a good beverage of the same kind and strength as Is generally drunk all over Germany.

The company had In the first month a daily sale of 1,000 litres, and as our people become accustomed to It more and more, it may have the effect of doing away gradually with the custom of Ctrinklng the Imported poison known In these countries as 'French The Ice Is sold at 1 cent a pound at the factory, and Its cheap price permits Us use by the poorer classes. The great sanitary benefit which it gives to our hospitals and to the sick is of great importance in this tropical climate, and will no doubt be the means of saving the lives of many. Since the establishment of an ice factory, a multitude of soda-water stands have sprung up at convenient places, and in time these will help to break the habit of drinking strong- liquors." THIRD AVENUE CABLE. lincUleberry Road Opposes the I'se of Electricity. Edward Lauterbach, representing the Third Avenue Cable Railroad Company, and ex-Lieut.

Gov. William F. Sheehan, representing the Metropolitan Traction Company, he Union Railroad Company, and the Huckleberry Road, were before the State Board of Railroad Commissioners In the Chamber of -Commerce rooms yesterday to discuss the application of the Third Avenue Road for permission to change the motive power on the icing's Bridge extension from cable to electricity. Mr. Sheehan argued that the board should not grant its consent to a change of motive power until the Third Avenue people had gained the consent of the required percentage of property owners along the line of the proposed route.

Commissioner Beardsley, who presided, explained to Mr Sheehan that the matter under discussion was the change of motive power, and not the consent to build a new road. Mr. Sheehan replied with some warmth that If the application of the Third Avenue Cable Company were granted. It would show that the Commissioners had decided against the majority and for the minority of property hosiers directly interested. Mr.

Lauterbach did not discuss Mr. Shee-han's arguments at length. He said the only reason they came before the Board of Railroad Commissioners was because the Common Council had suggested that he find out from the board the propriety or Impropriety of substituting the overhead trolley for the cable. Mr. Sheehan presented Ms brief to the board, which promised to consider it carefully, and announce Its decision at the earliest possible moment.

One of tbs members of the Reorganisation Committee of the United States Cordage Company explained yesterday that no meeting of the committee would be held to consider the date of Issue of the' new securities until the banknote company baa delivered the certificates. The certificates for the stock and the first mortgage bonds have been turned over to the committee, but not the consolidated bond certificates. The formal Issue of the new securities will probably occur In about a fortnight.

Kerr spa pr Booth Ordinance Tetood- The Board of Aldermen got Mayor Strong's veto, yesterday of an ordinance which would permit of the erection of newspaper booths under the stairs of the stations of the elevated railroads. The reasons for the veto were that the size of the stands was not specified, that there was. no provision for assigning the right to the booths, and nothing was said about procuring the consent of -owners -or occupants of pram ias contiguous te the-booths.

young Mohn did not like their appearance. He refused to take "I've cut them." said Noll, "and If you don't take them. I'll cut your head off." With that he slashed at the boy with the big knife with which be bad Just cut the chops. As be did so the boy Jumped, and the edge of the knife struck his throat, cutting a gash about two inches long, but only Just severing the skin. The boy screamed with pain and -fright.

Mr. Lillenthal at once summoned the patrol wagon, and the boy was taken to the Eleventh Street Police Station, where City Physician Simon was called. He said the wound would do the boy no harm, and after applying some court plaster, the boy was taken Mr. Lillenthal told Noll that he wanted ho more such Jokes In his shop, and to guard against a repetition of the pleasantry he paid Noll and discharged him. When Mr.

Mohn heard of the affair, he went to Recorder McDonough and obtained a warrant, but Noll was not to be found. BOXING BOUTS AND TEE LAW. Chief Conlln Gets Information That Will Stop Pnblle Shows.

Under the opinion, the police wll stop ajl other public contests.

The opinion of the Assistant Corporation Counsel states that under these circumstances it would be considered an entertainment of the stage," and a license under Section l.vtui of the Consolidation act would nave to be secured.

Mrs. Frederick Pltchard of 256 Jewett Avenue, Jersey City, recently sent a cor-plaint to the Board of Education, saying that her seven-year-old son, Frederick, had been refused admission to Public School No. 12. on Crescent Avenue, by Miss Maggie Van Winkle, Principal of the primary department, on the ground that he drank beer.
