ACCLATM MORINI CONCERT GREATEST IN ACADEMY COURSE The Academy Musical course closed its scason Wednesday evening with what was acclaimed as the greatest concert ever given in this city. Erika Morin!, the most famous woman violinist now on the concert stage, was the artist appear- ing before an audience that filled every seat that could be provided in Slater hali and the annex, as well as 100 extra seats that had been arranged on the e. The following was the program: - Concerto, Hindeo Chant, Rimsky-Korsakow, Kreisler Mendelssohn Valse in A major, Brahms ‘Waltz Caprice, Wienlawskl Melodie, Gluck Menuett, Porpora-Kreisler Gultarre, Moskowsky Faust Fantasie, Sarasate Hailed with a burst of welcoming ap- plause 28 she appeared with charming simplicity for Ler opening number, Miss Morini captured her audience with the first impid notes drawn bYy the magic of her bow and held them in rapt wender and admiration throughout tne evening. After every number the enthusiastic ap- plause knew no bounds and she was re- called again and again to how her ac- knowledgments, besides generously giv- ing encores at’ each appearance. With downcast eyes that were rarely lifted to her audience, with complete ab- sence of mannerism or attempts at stage effect, Miss Morini was the artist abe sorbed in her instrument, over which she leaned caressingly with all of fts re- sources at her command, and brought out in her well chosen program. The first number was changed trom the Concerto D major (Sauret Cadenza), Paginini, to the Mendeissohn Concerto, in which the audience caught the first intimation of the exquisite tone of velvet smoothness, produced with pertection of technique, that was to delight them ' through the evening, and will long Temain in the memory of everyone who heard her. For the encore number she gave Can- zonetta (Godart). 5 After the first group of three numbers, Miss Morini was recalled to receive a beautiful bouquet of red roses, and she gave as an encore the Serenade Espag- nole (Chaminade). A Kreisler composition. Schoen Ros- marin, was her encore number after the second group, and when the audience re- mained in its seats to applaud for one more appearance after the last flumber on the program Miss Morini came back to give the beautiful Valse Sentimentaie (Schubert-Franko) for the finale of a most notable musical evening tor this city. Emanuel Balaban was the admirable accompanist for Miss Morini. The stage decorations by Ernst were attractively arranged In yellow and green, with daf- fodils and palms. Announcements of the course for next year, which will include Mario Chamlee, Metropoiitan Opera company tenor, Per- cy Grainger, the Australian pianist, the London String quartet, and Frieda Hem- pel, the Jenny Lind of today, were dis- tributed with the programs and pledge cards for the next season course werc collected by the ushers.

Middlebrook, at the meeting of the Connevtlout Historical society in Hartford, Tuesday evening, read a pqper about the Connecticut ship, Defence, in the Revolutionary war. In December, 1775, a brig was bought by Colonel David Waterbury for the use of the colony for 1,000 pounds and was named Defence. Seth Harding of Nor- wich, was appointed her captain, Eben- ezer Bartram of Fairfield was made first “lefftenant,” Henry Billings of Norwich, second “lefftenant” and Samuel Smed- ley of Fairfield lieutenant of marines. A majority of the crew was from Fai field and Stratford. For a time the brig was off Fairfleld on secret duty, round- ing up Torles and breaking up Tory in- telligencing across the sound. The Tory craft Life Guard, was taken. The Defence sailed on a cruise and made three captures, taking 320 officers and men of a (Highland unit. probably on the way to Halifax. Still ater she was far abroad and anywhere between Newfoundland and the Wind- ward Islands. She took the British bark Tyvdia, heavily armed and laden with pro- visions. The schooner Anna and the brie Grog were other prizes. In the fall of 1777 the brizr was made over into a ship and in March, 1778, she put to sea and April 20 took the ble cargo. Then Smedley, ngw her cap- tain, ranged to the Barhadoes and after a spell was fighting with three British privateers, taking two, the Tonyna Re- venze and the Ranger. Then for a time there was quiet for the ship, for British naval craft were in overpowering numbers. Captain Smedley was able finally to put out and March 10, 1779, was chased by a supe- rior force and cutting across Goshen Reef wrecked the shin. Smedley went to his farm in Fairfield. The _British general Tryon landed on Fairfield Beach and burned the town and two hanses of Smedley were deffiroyed. Smedley was then but twenty-six years old. In a short time he manned the shin Recovery with a Fairfield crew, which was overpowered off Newfoundland by one of Artbutnot's British frigates. the Galatea. After exchange he helped to fit out the Hibernla, which was captured on the high seas. Smedley wos fined in Old Hill prison, Plymouth, Eng- land. The Defence brought into the coffers the colony £500,000 in a three years® Smedley died June 13, 1812, aged of lite, 59. SPIRITED PERFORMANCE RY Y. M. C. A.

The spectators caught the spirit of te circus from the very start and warmly applaud- ed each act. The clows were on their jobs too, and caused many a laugh with their queer manners and stunts. One of the clown numbers which proved esp:- cially catchy was Louls Tempesta, tne sharp-shooting clown. With real skill he ked oft” the various targets, but at the close of his demonstration was caught wh'n his confederate was d@iscovered near the target cabinet. It is deserving to say that the entire program was well enjoyed and the Y boys deserve credit for their ability and hard work in promoting the circus which en- able them to exhibit to the public some of the work they achieved during the gymnastum season, as wel las backing up the institution that is trying to serve the young men and boys of the community, WILL ASK OBSERVANCE OF ANTI-CIGARETTE SUNDAY The April meeting of the W.

They were loud in their praises of the good work dome by the warden in enforcing the fish and game laws and from the sentiment of the speakers it ‘was evidently the opinion. that Mr. Chappell is the best game warden the county has had. Among those who offered words - of praise for the efficiency of Mr. Chappell were Dr. James J. Donohue of this city and George S. Brown, president of the Ashland Fish and Game association of Jewett City. The meeting then unanimously adopt- ed a resolution endorsing Mr. Chappell in his capacity of county game warden. Tra Comstock of New London. a past president of the New Londen Fish and Game association, spoke briefly on the origin of the New London assoclation several years ago.

Through a recent reorganization, the paper board mill at Versailles, which was i formerly controlled by the Federal Paper Board Co. of New Jersey, has become the Inland Paper Board Co.

The property York, New Haven and Hartford railroad, Versailles, Conn., and consists of an to-date two machine paper board mill, fully equipped, with railroad siding, am- ple mill yards, dwellings and about 620 acres of land. The mill is now in opera- tion and finds a market for its product tn this city, Willimantic and other near- by towns. ‘The physical condition of the plant is exceHent, the mill buildings having been renewed during the past year.

All these men have been actively engaged for many years in the exscutive and manazement branches of the industry, they having been connected with very large organ- tzations. The change of management is of Iocal interest owing to the fact that one Norwich industrics, the tlaAntic Oar- ton Corporation secures its raw mater- 1al from this mill and the officers of this company therefore, have a keen desire to have this paper mill maintained in this section by the support of local investors.

Stories that heads are to fall right and left in the reonganizaton of the internal revenue bureay, Mr. Mellon said, did not emanate from any official source. The secretary’s statement. however, did mot preclude the possibility that changes may be expected in the bureau and in other government depantments as. the work of bringing the government service up to the highest standard of- effisiency goes on. Such changes are predicted by heh officlals generally. It was also indicated after the mem- orandum was circulated that the changes which are-yet to be made In the treas- ury mersonnel will be accomplished gradually and that no wholesale dis- missals are to be feared. Louis A. Hill, the new director of the g bureau, conferred today with President Harding. but declined to dis- close any details of his conversation on leaving the White House. He sald. how- ever, that he had not vet signed for the stock in hand and was awaiting the re- sults of the investigation now being con- ducted by the department of justice. This Investigation and inventory, he add- ed, would probably take some weeks. Comnlete check of the bureau's stock is being made for the first time since 1920 by a committec headed by Deputy stant Treasurer Tait and composed of representatives of all the departments for whom work is done by the bureau, it was said at the treasury.
