in Concert Work-Assisted

and Mr. Manvilie. Organist
I w...

 

A delightful song recital was given
at the South Norwulk Congregational
Church, last evening. by lilies Mary
Lewis Haley. of New Haven. soprano
soloist of the church, assisted by Miss
Belle Manross Sigourncy. violinist:
Chester H. Benedict. basso. and Ed-
ward B. Munvillc. organist and accent-
panist. Miss lialey severe her connec—
tion with the uuartette choir of the
church on April lst. to enter upon a.
Similar engagement in the Center
longregationul Church. of Hartford.

in consequence of her early depar-
ture from South Norwalk, the audi-
once. which nearly filled the church,
was made up largely of admiring
friends who desired to hear this gifted
artist in concert numbers. having
deemed to appreciate her Worth its a
church singer during the past year.
Miss Haley displayed a happy faculty
in arranging her programme. All of
her songs were superbly rendered. de-
noting a remarkable quality of tone
and correct execution. The ease with
which she took the high notes called
for in several of her selections was
simply marvelous.

The character of her evening's work
was foreseen when she appeared in her
opening song, "Chanson Provencal,“ by
Dell' Acqua. The rendering of this
number required rare ability. but the.
artist sung the difficult technical pas-
sages in a. manner that called forth
generous applause. The Ardltti waltz
song. bright from beginning to end.
calling for high D flut. was a gem in
its character and execution. as was
also the brilliant "Haymaking." by
Alicia Needhum. Brahms‘ "Cradle
Song" lost none of its efchLIVCiieSs at
the hands of Mitts Haley. A lullaby is
always welcomed by an audience and
this one was specially appreciated.
Horatio Parker‘s old English song,
"Now the Lark Loaves ills Wat‘ry
Nest." was a dainty piece and admir-
ably rendered. A pleasing feature of
the programme was the singing of "0
Dry Those Tears." by Del Reigo and
“Spring Song.“ by Well, with violin
obligato by Miss Sigourucy. There was
a. delightful blending of the voice and
instrument anti hearty applause greet-
cd the artists. As encore numbers
Miss Haley sang “My Home is Where
the Heather Blooms." by lIeKoveu.
and “Dainty ilovc." Rev. Dr. Bus-ll
announced that, a large number of Miss
Haley's friends requested that. she ren-
der the “infiniiimatus” from Rosini‘s
"Stabat Mater." a selection with which
she has delighted many an audience
in the past. The rendition was even
better than before and was a brilliant
closing of her work in connection with
the recital.

Miss Sigourney made her how to a
South Norwalk audience and capti-
fvated the people. She rightfully holds
the position of one of Conunectlcut's
.best violinists and she certainly sue.
tnined that reputation last evening.
Her first numbers were "Paroles du
Coeur,” by 'l‘licodore Radoux. and
"Mazurka do Concert," by Ovid Mu-
sin. in the second part of the pro-
gramme she rendered “(luprlcc tie Con-
cert," by Ovid Musip. A great deal of
deserved applause fell "to the lot of
Miss Sigourney for the very skillful
manner in which she handled the vio-
lin. The interpretation of the eclec-
tions and the beautiful tones produced
hold the audience spellbound. In re-
sponse to encores he played ”Dottellu-
cite.” by Gounod. and “'l‘ruunierer."
by Schumann.

Chester 11. Benedict realized that he
'vvns among friends from the applause
that greeted liiiii when he appeared be-
fore the people. His name appeared
twice on‘ the programme. the first num-
ber being ”The Friars of Orders
Gray." by Shield. This selection was
given with all the energy and good
style called for and the big audience
was delighted With it: His other songs
were “Still Wis Die Nat-ht." by O.
lloliin. and “'l‘o.My First Love.” by
Lohr. As an encore he sang “Drink
to Me Only With Thine Eyes." Mr.

they had sought a home in North Ani-

The father. very evidently of higher
caste than the usual emigrant. secured
work in the Norwalk Mills. at Wiunl~

of home he could provide. Troubles

and she was taken to the hospital and
placed under surveillance.

In addition to lllt'.‘ couple's other
troubles. it is said that their eighteen-

The failure of Governor Roberts to
reappoint the Hon. John 11. Light. of
Norwalk. to the post of judge. of the
criminal common pleas court of Fair-
.icid county which he has filled during
the last four years. excited more pub-

the almost uliauhiious choice of tlic

City of Norwalk Physicians to Act
Regarding Spotted Fever.

'i‘ltu (ity of Norwalk Health Board
will hold a special meeting this cvcu~
lug. at the Council Chamber in Wall
street, to discuss l‘t‘l'e‘lll‘l) spinal men-
ingitis, or spotted fever, it is probable
that the board will decide to placard
all houses in the city. where there

are cases of the disease. .

llr. William J. 'l‘racoy said this af~
erutioti that. if the board passes this
measure. he will place cards all (Will
the town where there are patients stif-
i‘criiig from the disease. ily Virtue of
his office, he has this authority.

This action does not mean that the
be men will be quarantined. but is do-
sined as u warning to the public.

There have been no new deaths in
Norwuik from the fever since yester-
day and Wellkuowu physicians say
there is no cause for the geiic‘ul fear
that has spread among parents.

A new case of the fever announced
he that of ii colored girl Ellie Smith.
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nathan
Smith, of Sliiltti street. Not-walk. The
child had been ill for a couple of days
and the attepdlng physician. Dr. linki—
win. is sure of his diagnosis. The lit-
tle girl has five brothers and sisters.

Another case of spotted fever was
discovered yesterday. Katie. the
clght-year-old daughter of tieorgc
Mills. of Cranbury. was taken Ill yes~
torday with the (lineage and bus devel-
oped every symptom. She is quite
sick and fears are entertained for her.

Clarence Bunion. the (lrunbury
young man III of the fevor. in reported
today as holding his own. it is believ—
ed his chances for recovery are ex-
cellent. He still has delirium and
fever. and his head is drawn back-
ward. but he is in no Worse condi-
tion than yesterday.

The funeral of Claude A. tlilbcrt. one
of the young victims of the disease.

Early This Morning, But_._ljog
Closed “in Letter and Vessel
Could Not Be Seen

 

A large Ibree-niusied'setiouuer was
seen ashore today on the bar soutlr
cast of tiny island. off this harbor.
Last night was very bad and probably
she went on the bar at half tide. This
morning the weather was very thick
and soou‘nftcr Silo was discovered the
fog closed in iignin. This afternoon
the schooner could not be seen. so it
was believed that she floated with the
rising title and procecdwi on her way.
She narrowly missed going on a bad
ledge of rocks off Copp‘s island.

Oyster steamers which went down
the harbor this morning during the
thickest of the, fog did not see the
schooner. which. however. was clearly
visible from the shore.

tlonal Church. Last Night .

A large company of young 'people
gathered in the lecture room of the
First Congregational Church, of Net‘-
walk. 192st evening, in response to the
invitation hi the Ladies’ Association.
A good npinber of the members of the
Association. the acting pastor. Rev.
Mr.‘Billingsloy. the acting superinten-
dent. officers and many of the teachers
of lhe Sunday school were also in at-
tendance to welcome their guests. and
to make the evening one of unusual
pleasure.

The ladies had arranged an art gal.
levy In the, ladies‘ parlor. and a miter»
Iioii of pictures of lioietl buildings and
works of art In foreign lands.

A great deal of amusement was
found in cataloguing the. articles in the
art, gallery. and in hauling the number"
ed exhibits of palaces. churches, moun-
tains and castles. The succest’ul ones
in each department. received pretty
awards, painted by Mrs. G. Willis
While.

After this came a short program in
the lecture room. prefaced by a very
pleasing informal address by Rev. Mr.
Billingslcy. who had come from Brook-
lyn fir-attend the reception, blit. who
was obliged to leave for New York
before it was over.

The opening number of the program
was a very-charming recitation by
Miss Hazel Paddock, entitled "Penelo
pe's Dance." which called forth iolid
applause. To this Miss Paddock very
kiiidiy responded with a short. grace-
ful sketch. She was followed by
Miss Grace Stoiumel. with a delightful
piano/ solo. entitled “A Meditation."
and she gave as her second number
the always beautiful "Slinple Aveu."
The piano had been put. in excellent
tune for the entertainment through the
much appreciated courtesy of the so
cloty's committee, “011.. E. 0. Keelcr
and John P. Tiendwcli had taken the
matter in charge. and received a vote
of thanks from the Association.

The filial number on the program
was a spirited elicitation by Miss Mu-
bel Kellogg. “The Lady in the Shoe
Shop." This aroused the. enthusiasm
of the audience to a. marked degree.
to which the dainty little lady respond-
ed with a pretty courtesy.

The acting superintendent. of the
school. Charles E Curtis. spoke. of ills
recent visit to Wushingloh and the
pleasure he had enjoyed in calling on
the beloved pastor emeritus of tho
Norwuik Church, and his wife. no loss
beloved. Rev. Dr, and Mrs. Noble. He
brought to the people messages of Dr.
and Mrs Noble's fondcst love. and in-
terest in each individual member of
the congregation This ended the for-
mal exercises of the. evening. Other
plt‘llsllliinft’ilillms had been planned.
but the hours had sped away too rup-
ldly and there was only little for the
enjoyment of the delicious cake and
ice cream which was served by the la-
dies and their corps of volunteer walt-
are.
