HARPIT TRIONPHS WITH STHPHONY Miss Mary Magnell of This City Given Hartjord Ovation Miss Mary Magnell, harpist, of New ‘Britajn, was the guest sololst at the opening concert of the Hartford Symphony orchestra at the Capitol theater in Hartford yesterday after- noon. Ehe was billed on the pro- gram as a “Hartford girl,” evidently 28 & concession to the supposed pro- vinclallsm of Hartford audlences. Louls. Eaton was the guest con- ductor, ably gulding the orchestra through its first program with skill and vigor. The orchestra, composed of professional musiclans from Hart- tord and surrounding towns, made a splendid debut before an audience that filled the theater. H, E. Ander- son of New Britain, the city's star violinist, was among the first violins with his music rack behind that of the concert master, 3 Miss Magnell enjoyed quite & triumph at the concert. She was de- luged with flowers, the five large bouquets being about all she could ¢arry. Her first number * was an #Irish Rhapsody,” by Pinto, with or- ¢hestra, which included many Irish folk tiunes. Tater she' played four golos and an encore, ‘“Tarantelle,” by Pinto, “Berceuse,” by Ilinsky, “Bouree,” by Bach, “Pastorale.”” by Bellotti and “The Jester,” by Serasta. In all of them she depicted the {moods in an exquisite manner, coal- lescing technique with feeling and emotion. The orchestra ought to mean a de- | rided advancement to the musieal | lite of Hartford. Its fine playing was consistently applauded, and the i entire band was required to stand ' j upon several occasions to receive the ' wmmmrd approval of its auditors. XFew orchestras could have played | better at a first concert. Unlike or- echnnru in some of the smalier cities | (which depend upon local profession- #als entirely there were no necessary “fristruments missing, the 80 perform- ‘ers Including everything but such {n+ struments as the bass clarinet, bas- set horn, English horn and double bassoon. The program included the “Phe- dre” overture, by Massenet; the “Unfinished Symphony” by Schu- bert; “Silhouettes” by Hadley; “To | a Wild Rose,” by MacDowell; “The | Butterfly,” by Razek; “Indian War | Danee,” by S8kilton, and “Fantasle | Triomphale” for orchestra and or- g2n, 'by Dubols. The pronounced melodic lines of | the Maseenet overture were read with charm and distinction, as was true of the Schubert masterpiece. The Hadley number consisted of six characteristic raclal styles—Spanish, Freneh, Italian, American, Egyptian and dtish. They were of light tex- {ture fhut sumptuously scored. The | Buttgrfly plece was a buzzing whirl | by the strings, such as Schubert orl- | ginatpd with his violin plece known as “The Bee.” The “Indian War yDanck,” from one of the most not- 'nhle hiites written by an American, a8 dn orgy of percussional ponder- e ——————— ] For Deep Chest Colds All colds should be treated with vapors, for vapors alone can carfy the medication DI- RECTLY to the air passages and lunge. Vicks is a “vapor" treatment in salve form. For deep chest colds you first apply hot wet towels over throat and chest to open the pores, then massage briskly with Vicks for 5 min- utes, spread on thickly and cov- er with a flannel cloth. Vicks not only penetrates like a poultice or plaster, but the in- gredients, vaporized by the body heat, are inhaled all night long. This double action usually checks the most stubborn eold overnight. ICKS VAPORUB Over 17 MuLiow Jars Useo Yearty osity, In the final Dubols selection the organ lacked the requl spirit, the rapld passages being inevitably muddled in effect, as is common with organs, But in fortissiml passages the combination of the two big in- struments nearly lifted the root with power of tone. JOANE SWEENEY FOUND DEAD N BED Shrewd Real Estate Deals —_— John F. Bweeney, well known in real estate circles and politics, was found dead in bed at his home, 190 | Fairview street, yesterday morning at 7 o'clock, News of his death came as a surprise although he had been suffering for a long time from rheumatism. Of late he had been seen on the street occasionally but it was apparent that his health was failing. Upon tha discovery of his death yesterday morning Medical Examiner John Purney was called and he pronounced death due to heart failure, which was hastened by the rheumatic ailment, Mr. Sweeney made himself coj spicuous for his unusual shrewdndss lin business transactions, especlally |those involving the transfer of real estate. Some years ago he purchas- led a row of houses on East Main street at a price which many New Britain residents thought was too high. Foreseeing that in the future Landers, Frary and Clark would have need of the property he made the purchase and later sold it to the concern, thereby realizing a consid- |erable sum of money. He also erect- ed the bullding which stands be- tween the Palace theater and the |Hanna block on Main street, oppo- !site the old Burritt school. These and other projects which he car- ried through beside conducting a store at the corner of Hartford avenua and Spring street, paved the 'way to the financial independence iwhlch he has enjoyed for a number of years. Mr. Sweeney was a worker for the interests of the Taxpayers' associa- tlon which a few years ago was the cause of considerable discussion. In Ithis organization he was a fellow worker with the late Isadore Simons and the late P. 8. McMahon. Mr. Sweeney was born in North Petersburg, N. Y., 60 years ago. He |had been a resident of this city for Imany years. He is survived by one mister. Mrs, Nicholas Crofts of North Adams, Mass.; one brother, James | Sweeney of Cleveland, Ohio, and two anheW!, Edward Sweeney of Cleve- {land, and Edward Crofts of New | York. Funeral services will be held to- morrow morining at 7:45 o'clock-at the church of 8t, John the Evan- gelist, after ‘which’ the body will be | sent !o Skitloaugh, N. Y., for burial.
