A Pleasant Occuion tn the Hall in
North Main Street, With Music
and a Fine Supper.

’l‘he tneiubcrs of the Smith Norwullt
Quarteite Club held a very pleasant
session in the hall in General Frost's
block. North Main street. that night.
the particular feature being the 9n~
tcrtainnieni of the ladies and a few
other friends of the members. About
fifty guests were present. and thor-
oughly enjoyed the affair. The Quar-
tette Chili favored with a number of
excellent vocal selections. and there
were piano solos. etc. The music was
highly appreciated. and all the num-
bers were rendered In the admirable
style of this well-trained organization.
Shortly after 10 o'clock a sumptuous
supper was served. to which ample
justice was done. The address of wet-
come was nuulc by President Gustave
I’l‘t‘ill'lt'll. who occupied the seat of
honor at the head of the able.

The only thing flint t e members
were disappointed over was the tili-
sencc of the leader. Professor Karl
Dieltl. who was unavoidably detained
at his home in Bridgeport. The oeca~
stop was to have been the rcgulai
weekly rehearsal of the club. and as
the members knew the day was the an
niversary of Mr. Diehl‘s berth. a little
surprise had been prepared for him
especially.

The ciiib is in a flourishing condi-
tion. and that its concerts are fully
appreciated is attested by the follow-
ing complimentary notice from the
Danbtiry Evening News. regarding the
one given Monday night. in that city;

“After being thoroughly renovated
and tastefully decorated. the hall of
the Concordia Society. on Ives street.
was re-opened to the public. last night.
with a concert by the Quartctte Club.
of South Norwulk. A large audience
was present, nearly filling the luill and
consisting of members of the. society
and their friends.

"The Quartetie ('lub consists of ten
male voices. The voices are strong.
pleasing and well trained. The club
sang last night a varied programme
made. up almost entirely of German
compositions sung in the German ton-
gue. For this reason the concert was
doubly attractive to the Germans. who
made up a large portion of the attrit-
ence. and pleasantly novel to the Eng-
lisli—speaking guests.

“The entertainment. commenced at 8
otiork and continued until nearly 11
o'clock interspersed with the vocal
numbers. which consisted of ensemble
selections. solos and ducts. were sev-
eral by an orchestra under the direc-
tion of George llahnert. of this city.

”At the close of the concert the
chairs were cleared from the hall and
until after 2 o‘ulock the time was spent
in dancing to excellent music by the
orchestra. that played during the coin
cert. Many that did not dance sat in
the adjoining hall and joined with
the Quartette Club in singing many
songs of the Fatherland. it was an
enjoyable affair for all concerned. one
of the pleasaniest ever given by the
Concordia society. The hull. since its
renovation. presents a bright and at
traetlve appearance."

The New Haven Journal and Cour-
ier. this morning. had tiic following re-
garding Professor Dichl‘s work in that
city:

"Karl Diclil. director pro tom. of the
llermann's Sons Singing Society. was
honored Sunday evening. after the reg—
ular rehearsal. with a parting celcbra
tion. Mr. Dielil lids directed the uncle-
ty's chorus dttring the illness of Dirac.
tor Emile Peters. As Mr. Peters has
sufficiently recovered to take his old
position Mr. Diehl retires. An infor-
mal banquet followed. Speeches were
made by niany, and a few enjoyable
hours were spent."

Scheme Worked by Oliver T. Shor-

No further clue to “The whereabouts
of Oliver '1‘ illiogood,‘ nIhe abseondlug

mystery in his done it no. The last
person in this with food who saw

at such an hour Sunday evening. but
still It seems impossible that Mr. Barr.
who has known Sherwood all his life.
could be mistaken. He says be dis
tinctly saw the. missing cashier and is
positive that he made no mistake.

Another Bridgeport mun saw Sher
wood with a woman answering the de-
scription of Miss Silvers. the New York
milliuer whom he is said to have back
ed financially. at Minor Smith‘s shore
house in Stratf‘ord. just. before the pee
uiaiions froin the Sottthport National

knew Sherwuod‘ intimately. Where
Sherwood is now attain mystery. anti
while active search {its being made for
him it has thus far roved fruitless.

In the neighbor and of $60,000 of
Fair-field's town notes are floating in
Bridgeport and Ned York after they
were supposed to have been cancelled.
From the town treasurer's report and
the figuring of the selectrnen. the legi-
timate floating lnde tedness is roughly
estimated at $213.0 0. There. is no
mistaking the condition. and it serves
to show the duplicity practiced upon
his own brother by the absconding
cashier of the Southpori National
Bank. 0. T. Sherwood.

As the notes camo due the requisite
nmoiint was ready to meet them.
Francis Sherwood, town treasurer. in
absolute good faith and with a confi-
dence that can be subjected to no un-
fair criticism, turned the money over
to his brother who deliberately went
to the safe. secured an envelope used
for the town notes, and drawing the
one to be cancelled. and apparently did
so to all intents and purposes. it now
transpires; according to allegations
made by representatives of the town,
that O. T. Sherwood instead manipu-
lated in blank nice of paper in the
cancelling machine, refuliy return-
ing that to tho envelone In question anti
as carefully securing the original un-
cancclled note. if it had not been at-
ready floated by him. to his own use.
inspection of the envelope revealed this
condition.

It is further alleged that 0. T. Sher-
wood hnd a memorandum of the notes.
where they were placed. as well as an
entry of the interest paid on them by
him. Criticism has been made from
the fact that the town treasurer did
not destroy the notes as cancelled. but
the rule generally in practice has been
to file them away in the bank safe for
reference and safe keeping. the can‘
cellaiion rendering them useless.

MATINICOCK POINT. May its—it
was dull and lowering when the crews
of the clip yachts. the Reliance, Con-
stitution and Columbia came on deck.
this morning. to prepare for the fourth
race over Ilie Glen (love course. btit
half a gate was hissing out of the
south southwest, and there was every
Indication of some grand sport in the
Sound. with “free sheets. smooth seas
and winds that follow fast."

in fact. it looked early in the morn-
ing as if the yachts would have anoth—
er contest over the same course as was
sailed on Tuesday. it was hoped.
however. that the breeze today would
change more to the. westward. so that
the yachts might have a longer trial
in the wind as the. narrow confines of
the Sound prevent much windward
work in southerly or northerly breezes

Before the crews of the yachts had
finished their breakfasts the clouds
had seemingly shut in closer. and it
looked at that time as if a rainstorm
was about to begin. But it held off
and the. men boarded the yachts about.
8 o‘clock. when they began to get up
the big malusulls. The skippers scent-
ing lively work and plenty of wind.
ordered on deck the small clubtopsails
and the crews made preparations to set
these sails as soon as the mainsuils
were up.

After the fierce contest on Tuesday.
it Wits generally expected that there
would he a great crowd of amateur sal-
lors at the race today.

While the yachtsmcn were inspect-
ing rigging. putting salts in stops and

 

making numerous other preparationse

a rattling twelve-knot breeze was kick-
ing up a foam crested sea on the
Sound. and it was very evident that
the bright new units would be. wet
down with spray as the big ninety-
footers nosed into the sea An early
shower seemed to flatten the wind.‘
however. and it soon decreased to eight
knots. The first to raise the mainsall
was the Reliance over across the
Sound off Premium Point. The excur-
sion fleet seemed to have been intimi-
dated by the threatening weather. and
it was late in the forcnoon before any
of the big steam craft appeared.

When the committee, boat arrived at
the starting point the wind had shiftad
to the southwest. and an hour before
the time set for the start it looked
as if the yachts would suit one of the
long triangular courses. with a run or
broad reach down the Sound to Salon‘s
Point. another short reach across the
Sound to Green Ledge Light and then
a long heat back to the finish. it was
expected at this time that an eleven
mile beat to the windward would give
the yachts the best course they have
yet had on that point of sailing. The
Reliance left her mooring at inz-lfi and
stood across the Sound. under lower
salts. The other boats were still at
their moorings in Glen Cove when the
Reliance arrived about the start.

All the yachts arrived at the start-
ing line by 11:50lat the same time
the committee set the signal letter R
for the third course on the program.
that to Eaton' s Point and Green Ledge
Light. This means a. run almost off
the wind for 11 miles. a reach of three
miles across the Sound and a beat
home. of eleven miles.
that time was from the south south-
west. blowiug about ten or twelve
knots.

The preliminary signal was fired at
12 o’clock and a few minutes after-
ward all the boats set their jibtopsails
in stops. The fight for position was
entirely between the Reliance and the
Constitution and the Columbia, keeping
away. crossed the line first. The oth-
er boats engaged in a sharp hitting
match. until the handicapped time had
almost expired. The Reliance then
shot for the line and crossed a few sec-
onds ahead of the Constitution. which
was the last boat over.

The oflicial time of the start was:

Columbia. 12:15:21.

Reliance. 12:16:43.

Constitution. 12: 17 :00.

The Reliance and Columbia started
off with number one jtbtopsails but the
Constitution by setting a balloon jib
crawled up rapidly on the two other
boats. A half mile from the start.
the Reliance and the Constitution pass-
ed the Columbia to the windward and
the Constitution had drawn up on the
Reliance until she was utmost on her
weather quarter. Both. however.
were having a sharp luffing match.
which carried them way in toward Oak
Neck.

The Reliance and Constitution had a
nice lufiing match all the way to
Lloyd‘s Neck. The big balloon jib of
the Constitution enabled her to keep
well up on the new boat. The killing
match vent the two boats well to the
windward of the course, while the Col-
lumbin held off well into the Sound.
and seemed to lose by that maneuvre.

The wind before the yachts had sail-
ed half the first leg dropped off to
about seven knots. At Lloyd's Neck it
looked from shore no if the Reliance

QUESTION OF COLOR.

The sensation caused some time ago
concerning color attending the dance
given by the graduating class of Center
High School. was circulated by Frank
Brundage. publishing an untrue story
saying Victoria Blackwell had invited
forty colored friends and that she was
told not to distribute her invitations
among any others than the family and
white frlcnds. Mr. Brundagc was not
alone in causing the report humiliat-
ing Misc Blackwell. but It was learned
that. Eleanor Smith. George Avison.
and Oliver Kemp also participated in
depriving Milo Blackwell of her right.
Mr. Brundage acknowledged that he
gave out the untrue facts to the re
porter. and was willing to make any
apology.

MRS. A. C. BLACKWELL.

Prelldont Brett Planning I Cour-u of
Lectures With Noted Spook".
From New York.

 

The annual meeting of the Darlen

Free Library Association. proved to be '

ll red letter event in the history of that
institution. and it is believed that it
was the. first step toward the speedy
accumulation of funds enough to erect
.-l handsome building an a permanent
home for the library./ The important
business which occupied the attention
of the members of the association war
the planning of a course of lecturoo.
the proceeds of which will go to the
library building fund. This is an idea
of the new president. 0. P. Brett.
Among the lecturers will be such noted
men as Jacob A. Rite. of New York:
Rev. Nowell Dwight Hillia and others.
many of whom are personal friends of
Mt. iiictt Their services as lecturers
in Burton will doubtless draw largely
fioin the surrounding totvns and cities,
as all those who are to deliver the
lectuics are men and women of nation.
at reputation. it can be stated with-
out exaggeration that this will be the
greatest education event in the history
of Darlen. The full course of the loo-
tures will be announced in The Senti-
nel later.
