slructive as well as pleasing series.

The instrumental quartettc weanlirst
heard in "Bebe Polka,” by ,Ricco, most
skillfully rendered, end of course en-
cored. They gave. also, a characlerislio
and exceedingly effective selection en.
titled, “The British Petrol," and for the

- encore the popular "ldbsrty Bell” march.

While the ladies were excellent iostru»
mentaiists, their best work was done as
vocalists, their sweet voices. delicate
shading. end correct intonation lending
additional charm to the nltrnctive selec-
tions chosen They gave Mohring’s bol-
led, “I Softly Dream," and “The Broken
Pitcher,” by Pontet, and for eocorese
beautiful arrangement of “Cumin
Through the Rye,” and a humoretque en-
titled, "The Boy and Task.” Blumeo
thal’s "Venetian Best Song,” given by
Misses Lavinia Sulclide and Isabella

merited the enthusiastic applause be-
stowed. Miss M. Louise Moudsll song
"The Journey is Long," by Coombs, ex-
hibiting a beautifully rich, vibrant, and
well trained contralto, and for encore.
‘ Oh, ’tls a. Dream.” One of the best
numbers on the program was the trio
by Miss Satellite and the Mines Mnedeli,
from Msudelssohn's “Elijah," entitled,
“Lift Thine Eyes."

The recitation given by Miss Weber
were in the main new and the lady’s
well-modulated voice end attractive
presence gained for but several ova-
whelming encores.

The series has been of more then or-
dinary excellence, and from the audi-
ences present on each occasion, it is evi~
dent that the people will patronize and
encourage no effort of this kind.

Au Interesting Conversation Between the
Warden end Murphy.

The Bethel counterfeiters begun their
long term of prison life Saturday and
the Hartford Times prints the fullnes-
iog In connection with the arrival of
Hoyt and Murphy at the prison:

The warden gave them a brief talk or-
plaining the regulations of the prison
sud impressing on them the necessity of
observing them. Warden Woodbridge
concluded hisedmonition by toying:

"Some of you men think you are
smsrt, and for sugbt I know some of
you are smart nod very clever, but 1
wish to remind you that there are others
in the world who are just as clever and
smart as you. if you try tor-scope you
will he certainly csugbt."

“May I say a word?" asbed Murphy,
the coonterfeiter, who is about sevcaty
years old.

“Certsinly.” replied the Warden.

“I know from experience that what
you say is true A“ men can’t escape
from the low. He will be caught sooner
or later. For my part i do not expect to
leave the prison olive. l have mode up
my mind to obey the rules,” Murphy
said.

The warden ssid be was glsd to beer
Murphy talk in that strain. But he
would look to him more closely than
to any other of the prisoners to see that
its fulfilled his promise to observe the
rules. The warden thought that per-
haps Murphy made his little speech ti
throwhierlths warden) of! his guard
and lo gain some relaxations of the rules
in his favor.

Hoyt and Murphy will spend six years
and eight months in prison. Sixteen
months willhs deducted for good be-

mauner,evsrybody present except that
member says they had a glorious time.
The member demursly says that a pleas

be ascertained the gatherings are of e
Masonic nature and just now there are
many curious husbands wondering just
what kind of a lodge their better halves
have instituted. The ides originated
from the fact that Monday night is lodge
night and the members eligible are those
whose husbands go to the lodge on but
evening. Mrs. Trlstrsm, Mrs. Herve M.
Kent, Mrs. A. C. Wheeltr, Mrs. ward

“Expression,” given by Miss Morse, of
New Haven. After the lecture, Min
Morse illustrated the art of expression by
section of religious attitudes from the
Mohammedan worship, which she pre-
faced by a brief explanation of their sig-
nificance. The movements were ex.
csedingly graceful and beautiful. Mrs.
Fred Quinturd accompanied Miss Morse
with soft music on the piano.

The Monday Evening Whist club was
entertained by Miss Estella Smith at the
residence of Mrs. William Bundle Smith,

The S. 8. club make no sdo about
anything, but measure for measure have
laid their plans to make their annual
ballin’fleclipae any of their previous
sllorts. For several weeks society has
been fluttering about between Matinee
whist, Friday afternoon whist, Thursdey
evening whist, living pictures and other
incidents of like interest. But on Friday
that much-talked-of. most exclusive and
most brilliant of social events will usher
in the season,probsbly with more wide-
spread interest than any other bell of the
year. The pstroneeees are Mrs. Robert
VsnBuren, Mrs. George W. Cram, Mrs

A birthday party was given by Mrs.

The Norwalk Armory was the scene of
a festive gathering. last night, the occa-
sion being asociable given by Company
D. it was an exceedingly well-managed
adalr. and the full measure of enjoyment
was secured by all present. The natty
uniforms of the state militia. combined
with the tollettes and bright faces of the
young ladies, made the scene a pretty
one, as fully half a hundred young
couples occupied the floor during the
continuance of the dance programme.
Thssvsning's pleasure commenced at
9 o'clock with a grand march. to the
strains of excellent music rendered by
Lowe’s orchestra. it was led by Captain
R J Doylsend Mrs. Edward E. Gor-

figures were executed, ending wltk tbs
lsnclars. Prof. Elmer St. George promp-
tsd in his usual efficient manner. The
programme consisted of slrteen numbers

Mr. Cleveland and Secretary Catliele
have apparently captured the Demo-
cratic members of the House committee
on banking end currency. Ten days ago '
Chairman Springer. of that committee,
publicly declared that it would be im-
possible for the committee to agree upon
any .currency bill: today, he says the
committee will, before the holidays.rs»
port a currency bill to the House, and
that it will be along the line proposed by
Secretary CarliIIe and endorsed by Mr.
Cleveland. This week is to be devoted ‘

tobsin order to carry out his rectu-

the House after it is reported will duo
pend largely upon the attitude of Speak-
er Crisp, who dominates the committee
on rules. which must report auortler
limiling debate thereon, it it is to have
any chance for getting through. Ir.
Catchings, of Mississippi, is the only_
member of the committee on) rules who
has publicly committed himself to the
Camels-Cleveland plan.

The canons of Democratic senators in-
cluded u “Currency bill” in its directions
to the steering committal; to provide an
order of business for the session, but that
is a long ways from an indication that the
Democratic senators are ready to accept
whstever currency bill the House may
pass and send over. Those who are dil-
posed to believe that the Senate will pen
a House currency bill without smold-
ment should turn their memory back to- '
the Wilson tariff bill for a few minutes.
Buteveu if the Democrats were willing
tumor-pt s House bill that would mats
no difference in the result. The decision
not to change the rules of the senate
loves the decision as to whet bills shall
pass the Scouts in the hands of the Re-
publican senators, who are not likely to
furor hurried legislation on such an im-
portant question as the currency of the .
country. The other bills untried by the
Democratic caucus were thus for the
admission of Athens and New Mexico,
Nicaragua canal. bankruptcy and the
lodlen Territory bill.

The administration is pulling all the
wires at its disposal to force the free
ship bill through Congress. It would
throttle soother American industry...

friends of theblll, who consist mostly
of misguided Democrats and the paid rs~
presentatlvre of the English shipbuilders,
thstlt will certainly be passed by the

at best a very doubtful one. lf.bossvsr,
