ADJUSTMENTS.


The new Symphony Society Of which DR..
Damrosch is the conductor. is the first OF the
three symphonic societies 10 take the field. Its
first public rehearsal was given yesterday
afternoon at Steinway Hall. Some doubt had
naturally been felt as TO the measure OF success
that would be likely to attend this young soci-
ETY.. In view OF the fact that II has two formida-
bic rivals. But II We may judge from the
attendance yesterday. its future would seem TO
be assured. for the hall was quito hlled-as
largely 30 as 1t used to be at the Thomas con-
ceTts. and. presumably. by an audience that
sunscrbes for the entire course Of six concerts.
The pieces under rehearsal are Bccthoven's
Fifth Symphony. the overture TO Godmark's
Sakuntala." and the introduction TO wagners
Mastersingers OF Nuremberg In addition
wilhemj plays RafT's concerto for violin and
orchestra. and fantasie also for violin and
orchestra, his own composition. There Is hut
one novelty about this progranme-the Ran
concerto In other respecis II reads quite like
those Of many Of the old Thomas or Philhar-
monte concerts But one new piece. especially
one so large and important rs this Of Rafi's ia

cert
Or. Dnmrosch has under his baton a fine
body OF musicians. some seventy in number
They have not yet been brought into entire
sympathy Of feeling. There WAS noticeable n
certain lack OF smoothness that at times
amounted almost 10 an abrupt and spasmodic
way OF playing. The forte passages also we're
too loud for the hall especially the last move
mont Of the Beethoven symphony. This was
undoubtedly incident io first performance Of
an orchestra not yet thoroughly In hand, With
further practice together will come the blending
quality. and with that unity of tone. greater
smoothness and delicacY and less OF that
clangor and excess OF vigor OF which we speak
What this society will accomplish II Is as yet
too soon 10 predict, There Is every reason to
hope from II the very best results. The con-
ductor IL most able musician. and his orches-

principal features Of the coming concert TO bo

NORWICH. Conn, Nov. THE November
term Of the Superior Court was opened this
morning. Westley W. Bishop occupied tho
prison box with other prisoners during tho
entire session. He was elegantly at.ircd in
black. with spotless linen and brightly polished
boots. Across his vest hung his gold watch
chain. TO which was attached tho charm which
Mrs. Cobb gave him. and conspicuous knot
OF blue ribbon siGnifying temperance and pro-
hibtion, He has changed little in physique
since his arraignmeni before the City Court
over three months ago. His face wears the
same pallid appearance ana his eyes have the
same lustreless. furtiye expression. He was
presented before the Court and asked whether
he desired counsel. He replied That he wished
10 be defended by Augustus Brandegee OF New
London. Mayor Waller. State Attorney. said
that that gentleman would be prevented by

Mrs. Cobb has been having bad dreams Of late.
Twice within week she has awakened from
officers OF the Jail by her outcries. On the last
occasion. night or two ago. she called the
prison oficials 70 her cell door in the middle OF
the light and told them. in apparently intense
agitation, that man was in the cell with her.
To reassure her. the officers searched the coll
and the clothing OF the bed but OF course. dis
covered nothing unusual. She then became
calm and retired to sleep. Her trial. and that
