The upraised hands of millions of slaughtered Armenfans, men, women and children ruthlessly mutchered, warn us that there is no security in complete disarmament, “The kingdom of heaven has not yet arrived on earth no matter how much we have prayed for it or how much more nearly it has approach- ed.

To bring them to New Brit- ain the Musical club had to make a substantial guarantee, The recent Ponselle concert was a brilliant success and the financali re- turn was satisfactory to the club, It requires a “full house” to make it possible to bring artists of the first rank to New Britain, and if there is no such success with the Maier- Pattison concert the club will sus- tain a serious setback. Friends of music in the city, and those who are in sympathy with the objects of the musical club, are expected to raliy to the standard and make it possible to greet the two-plano recitalists with a throng commensurate with their importance in the musical world, It will be the first time that two- plano recitalists of the first rank will have appeared in New Britain, BEFORE GRAND JURY In Charges Preferred Against Him, ‘Washington, Feb, 24. — Senator District of Columbia The senator was taken into the chambers immediately counsel learned Commissioner Spry of the general COURT [N FIGHT Judge And Defense Lawyer Clash In In ‘Wheeler in Trial of Sixteen Communists Representatives of the govern- Leipsic, Leipsic, Germany, Feb. 24, —This | morning’s session of the trial of the | 16 communists charged with murder and terroristic acts came to a pre- cipitate end owing to a repetition of the row between Judge Niedner and |the attorneys for the defense which |interrupted Saturday's session of the | hearing.
