| | e} ANNUAL CONGERT BY MAENNERCHOR Splendld Program Rendered by Local and Visiting Singers The annual concert of the Teu- {® tonia Maennerchor took place at 0dd Fellows hall, Arch street, last night. The audience was not as large as last year, but comfortably filled the large auditorium. The stage being far too small to accom- modate the choruses, they sang in a compact mass in front of it, fre- quently taking up the space from wall to wall. The choruses Wwere sung without accompaniment and be} it sald there was ample power, an cven balance and ringing sonority. Other singing societies also took part, including the Hartford Saen- zerbund and the “Donau” soclety of this city. Samuel Leventhal of . Hartford conducted the Teutonia and Hartford organizations, while H. Weidlich conducted the * “Donau’” soclety. The Hartford Symphony onsemble contributed orchestral selections. The star number on the program was a combined chorus of 200} voices, which sang under the direc- ion of Mr. Leventhal. The Teutonia maennerchor was | eard to fine advantage in a Wag-| nerfan number, “Einzug der Saen- | ger auf der Wartburg,” and in “Waldeinsamkeit,” by Pache. The ““Donau” soclety got a big hand when it sang “Der Letate Ritt” by Wengert, in which it gave a fine xhibition of expressive singing. The| Hartford visitors sang “Der Trom-| peter an der Katzbach,” by Moeh-| rvig. which was highly colored \\Ilh; vocal effects and required contm-‘ puntal dexterity. The combined choruses of 200 voices sang ‘“Soldatentod,” by Schultz. “Nur Die Hoffnung,” by Surlansky—perhaps one of the most affecting of the evening’s offerings | —and “John Peel” by Mark An-) lrews. 5 Dancing followed. | Is Released Without Bail | On Her Own Recognizance | Paris, May 19 (#) — Countess Du Janze, the former Alice Silver- thorne of Chicago, who shot and wounded Raymond V.
