A large audience enjoyed the con
cert given at Academy hall on Wednes-
day evening by the Howard Opera
house orchestra and Mrs. w. A. Briggs
of Montpelier. The orchestral selec-
tons and the solos were generally very
finely rendered, and Mrs. Briggs de-
veloped a voice of excellent quality
and gave evidence of fine cultivation.
The orchestral accompaniment was too
heavy for her voice, and thus the effect
of the last selection was somewhat les
sened.
A son of Walter II. Hale, between
three and four years old, caused his
parents no little anxiety on Monday.
He got on the morning train for the
east, and he was not discovered by the
conductor until after the train was I'M
der way. At the East village the con-
ductor put the boy off, and when he
arrived at West Concord he tele
graphed to the parents, as he supposed,
of the boys whereabouts, but owing to
IA mistake being made in the parents
names, the dispatch was not received
in due season. The boy not putting
in an appearance at noon, the parents
became alarmed and commenced Il
search for him. Later they learned of
the dispatch, and thinking it must re-
late to their lost boy, Mr.. Hale drove
to the East village, where the boy was
found at play unconscious of the trouble
and anxiety he had caused.
