Ad journed. Xlio Junior Promenade. The great social event of the winter, the junior promenade, came off last night at the Grand Opera House. The arrangements were, as usual, of a high class, and if anything sur passing previous events of the kind, at least in late years. The general verdict was that the affair was a complete suocess and given with enthusiasm. The attendance was unusu ally large. There were a great number of la dies from abroad and the toilets averaged un usually fine. The spacious galleries were filled with spectators, and opera glasses by soores were levelled at the beautiful scene the floor' presented, with eager eyes revelling among the elegant toilets, scanning the fair faces and enjoying the whole rare and beauti ful scene of happiness. Bernstein's splendid musio guided the flying feet for the giddy mazes, this band occupying the left gallery, while Wheeler & Wilson's brass band gave its finest efforts, worthy of the occasion, they being in the right gallery. The decorating was quite general and a happy feature. The pretty Yale navy flags and the starry flag of the Union were to be seen arranged at inter vals all along the gallery front Above the stage blazed in letters of fire "Junior Prome nade, 1881." A hundred more gas jets gave iacreased brilliancy to the soene. Two spa cious circles of glass globes high aloft over the center of the hall, one above the other, were noticeably fine additions in this department The stage was covered with crash and was constantly occupied during the dancing. The floor and stage with any more sets would have been uncomfortably crowded. Over the en trance to the hall was a striped canvas cano py and the entire walk to the curb and through the lower passageway to the rear, also up each gallery stairway, was handsomely carpeted. The programmes for the dances eclipsed for style anything in this line seen at prome nades of a recent period. The print el pages were enclosed between highly polished black calfskin covers akin to pocketbook style, with an elegant pencil fringed, gilt ended, etc Mr. Ed. P. Sperry was the designer. The invitations were gotten up by Tiffany, and in- an engraved scene the old elms of Yale figured, with a banner in front obsouring a portion of the foliage and bearing upon it the names of the committee, viz. Harry Ives, New Haven, floor manager ; D. N. Barney, Farmington ; B. B. Lamb, Chi. oago, 111. ; J. B. Dimmick, Honesdale, Pa. Grant Fitoh, Milwaukee, Wis. ; L. O. Hay, New York city; D. W. McMillan, Mount Pleasant, Pa. ; T. H. Myers, Yonkers, N. Y. ; F. R. Vernon, Brooklyn, N. Y. ; A. E. White, New York oity. Among the New Haven ladies dancing were Miss Jessie Ives, whose toilet was a pink silk with brocade overskirt, very tasteful and fine ; Prof. Trowbridge's daugh ters, one In an elegant white silk ; Miss Min nie Ensign, in a rich black silk skirt and salmon colored panniers, with a bunch of white roses at the waist ; Miss ' Car rie Miller, daughter of Captain Miller, of Baltimore, fine toilet ; Miss Maude Trow bridge, elegant pale pink silk ; Miss Thayer, of Whitney avenue, an elegant pale blue silk ; Miss .

Bowers, Miss Eingsley, an elegant blue silk, white satin front; Miss Griffing, Miss Annie Lewis, the -Misses Ive s of Fair Haven Heights, Miss Walton and vari ous others. Among other notice ably fine toilets were . a rich pink silk covered with white tulle; a crimson satin bodice, under skirt of soft neutral tint ; a pale flesh color silk, with fancy brocade trimming running in divers and sundry curves, which captivated feminine eyes as something peculiarly stylish. Miss Sholes, of Norwich, wore a rioh pale pink silk covered with tulle. Among the la dies from abroad were a daughter of the late Horace Greeley, and Miss Hull of Boston, visitor at Judge Hanson's. High-necked dresses were the most numerous, and trails were few. Pink and blue colors greatly pre dominated. Among tne most enjoyed dances was the Glide waltz given to the fashionable worm by iroressor jjoomis. Tne supper was servea unaer .aeacune s direction, in one of tne extensive lower rooms of tne building. adouc a nunarea small circular tames were provided, each covered with a snow-white cloth and equipped with dainties, ready for the signal for intermission. Altogether the "Junior Promenade, 1881, was one of the best ever given in the history of old Yale.

Yesterday morning between 4 and 5 o'clock the tow broke away from the tugboat when about off Branford, as the captain supposed, and he lost them.

FUN ON THE BEISTOIi." A good-sized audience was at Coe's Opera House last evening to enjoy "Fun on the Bristol." This play, like "The Tourists," gives a number of performers an opportunity for character sketching, singing, dancing and, burlesquing, and at the same time has i Blight plot The hearty and frequent laugh ter and applause showed that the audience was well entertained. The boat scenery is very realistic The company appear at a matinee this afternoon and also give a per formance this evening, and those who wish to be amused should seek "Fun on the Bristol." pattnitza. To-morrow evening Mahn's Comio Opei a Company, which is composed of the entire original Fifth Avenue Theater oast, will ap pear at Coe's Opera House. The New York Telegram says : "Suppe'a comic opera, "Fati nitza,' was produced at the Fifth Avenue Theater last evening. The house was packed, and to judge from the enthusiastic manner in which the audience received the performance, the theatre has scored a success. The opera itself is an exquisite piece of work. The musio is . charming from beginning to end, and shows throughout the hand of a master ; the libretto is cleverly arranged, and together they form a brilliant aad artistic whole. It is the best comio opera which has been pro duced in New York for a long time. The oompany is a very creditable one. Miss Jeannie Winston, as 'Fatinitza,' sang well throughout and created a good impression. Her first solo contained some difficult musio, whioh was well rendered. Mr. Hamilton, as Count Kantshakeff.' looked every inch a Rus sian, and gave a very good interpretation of the musio allotted to him. The success of last evening's performance, however, was mainly due to the good singing and ex quisite acting of Miss Sallie Beber. who ap peared to exoellent advantage as the 'Princess The Allen Murder Trial. Ivor bring" to s3ot at Jory Br. Jones Sielc At the opening of the Allen murder trial yesterday at Hartford, to resume the empan neling of a jury, Mr. Charles J. Cole, of counsel for the defense, addressed the court and stated that Mr. Jones was in ill health, and, though present, vat unable to remain and go on with the ease. He therefore asked for an adjournment of the court for one day, whioh would allow- Mr. Jones to rest and. be in condition to pursue his duties In the ease at that time. Mr. Jones, he stated, by inha lation of the impure atmosphere during the Hayden murder trial, completely poisoned his system, and he was in an alarming condition. Mr. Hamersley, the State a Attorney.resret- ted the condition of Mr. Jones, but thought the other counsel might carry along the case until Mr. Jones should be able to attend. He said it would be a serious inconvenience to a large number of men who had been summoned for a jury. Mr. cole tnougnt u tne snens naa sum moned the large number of men spoken of, he had done it on authority he did not pos sess. He was unwilling to go on with the case without the presence and advice of the senior counsel Mr. Jones. .The court was of the opinion that the ex amination of the three remaining Bristol men, summoned for the panel, might be continued, but, for the reason of Mr. Jones' illness and in consideration of the low temperature of the court room, at the conclusion of the question ing of the Bristol jurors, the court might be adjourned until this morning. Hiram XiOdgre Promenade. The annual musical and social promenade of Hiram Lodge, F. and A. M-, took place in Masonic Temple last evening.

Louise Thompson and the other ladies and gentlemen was very fine. After the con cert the oompany repaired to Union Armory, where dancing was indulged in to the delight of the participants. "Old Hiram" has given many previous entertainments, but, all wilj unite in saying, never a better one than that of last evening. College Notes. The Harvard corporation have voted the new gymnasium to President Eliot for his re ception on class day. Mr. O. H.

Waite, proprietor of the Brevoort House, New York, and one of the proprietors of the Windsor Hotel in that oity, died at half- past 10 o'clook yesterday morning at the age of 50. Mr. Waite had been in ill health for a long time, and some six weeks ago his life was despaired of. A marked change for the better came, so much so that he engaged pas sage for Europe for the 25th of this month. His illness returned, however, with such in creased violence and it soon became evident that, despite his wonderful resources of con stitution and unlimited energy, whioh had long sustained him against the inroads of dis ease, his life must soon end. Mr. Waite had handsomely won the reputation of stand ing without a superior in his field of activity in this country. The Btevoort has been par ticularly fortunate in its proprietors for many years, with Mr. Albert Clarke, long in charge, and also with our own Mr. Moseley, of the New Haven House, who was there adding to its reputation for a number of years until, his health failing, he went abroad. Mr. Waite was in early life engaged in the service of the New York and New Haven railroad. After ward, for a period, he was secretary of the Hartford Fire Insurance Company. For a number of years - he was proprietor of the Sherman House, Chicago, and afterward oame to New York and purchased Mr. Moseley's in terest in the Brevoort Mr. Waite, upon the death of Mr. Clarke about five years ago, be came sole proprietor. The brilliant manage ment of the Brevoort is well known, also its reputation as a place of resort for titled per sonages and others of distinction. The Prince of Wales, Lord Lyons, long the British Minis ter; the Swedish Minister, Charles Dick ens and a host of notables have sojourned there. Mr. Waito had a host of friends abroad and was almost as much at home on a visit to London or Paris as in New York. On this side of the water his friends were legion, and numbered many of our most noted people. He was a con spicuous figure personally, very robust and commanding, of vigorous frame, and withal a most genial and able man. He leaves a wid ow and five children, three sons and two daughters. A daughter perished on the ill- fated steamer Ville de Havre. He leaves an ample fortune. His wife is an adopted daugh- ter of Mr. Burritt, years ago for a long peri od cashier of the New Haven County bank, and a gentleman of considerable wealth. Mr. Waite was a member of Bev. Dr. William M. Taylor's ohuroh, New York city, where proba bly the funeral services will be held. Tbe Court Kecord.

It is probable, although not certain, that the second trial of Buchholz for the murder of John H. Schulte will come on at the term of the Superior Court, which commences at Bridgeport In the litter part of this month. New evidence will be introduced on both sides, Imparting to the esse additional interest. The defense refuse to say what new matter they will intro duce and the State Attorney Is likewise reticent regard ing the new evidence for the State. Both sides seem oonndtnt of mating out a better case than before, al though the State's case was strong enough to secure a conviction and therefore would seem to be in less need of strengthening than the other aide. Among other things whioh Buchholz' counsel are preparing to In troduce at the new trial, is a map of the scene ot the murder and the whole ground which includes the course followed by Buchholz and Schulte in their walk from the depot to the Warings' ho use. $2.65 will purchase, at W.
