WARRINGTON MUSIC AND CON.
POSERS.


The washington correspondent Of the New
York Commercial says in that paper: "Tbe
season Is proving q notable one in the way Of
amusements, especially in the musical line.
Inc local musical orgaizations are manifesting
unusual strength rs rule. The Richard Wag-
ner society, composed OF eight or ten OF the best
fnstrumentalists in the city, gives monthly
concerts devoted to the higher class of chamber
music, with special leaning toward the most
advanced contemporaneous school. At the
last concert Mr.. Anton Gloetzner, a
scholarly and gifted musician and
the pianist of the society, brought
out a composition of his own a romance for
isfaction. 1t is a very Interesting work-more
elaborate than its title would impiy-and excel
lently constructed in every particular. At the
the society, and musician OF tar more than the
ordinary caliber, also produced an original work,
a trio for the same instruments, which met with
u corolai reception from professionals and lay
men alike. 1t is q composition of superior
merit, the second and last movements being
gifted and enthusiastic musician In Mr.. seem
eienyl, who has written number of songs ana
other compositions which deserve q much
larger audience and fuller appreciation than
they have yet received. characterized as they
are by high degree Of true musical feeling,
grace and feryor. Mr.. Lent is this year the
tra and its first concert of the season. last week,
was an unQueStionable success unsteady, va
ried and exacting program being performed in
q manner that would have been creditable TO
any professional organization in the country.
Passing to the iel OF vocalism, the Choral
Union, under the direction of Professor Sher-
man, has just begun its third season under
hopeful auspices, although several causes COM
bined to handicap its efforts at the first concert
q fortnight or SO ago. There are very few
choruses in this country or for that matter in
any country, that can sing as we'll as the Wash
lngton Choral Union; and it is to be hoped that
Its conductor and members will persevere in
the line they have SO successfully cultivated
for three years past"

MISS MORRISON, THE ST. LOUIS HEIRESs To
WED THE YOUNG SON OF HER INTIMATE
FRIEND.
Condensed from the st. Louis Republican
1t will cause many people to open their eyes
with wonder when they learn that Miss Bere-
nice Morrison is to be married to j. p. Fuller
Miss Morrison is the only child of the late VIII
liam Morrison, a well and widely known COM
mission merchant, and his wife, Miss Kate
Sweeney, OF Glasgow, Mo. The marriage of
Mr.. Morrison and Miss Sweeney, which took
place about 1S44 or 1S45, was a leading soci-
ETY. event in the little town of Glasgow, the
bridegroom being known one the most
prosperous and prominent merchants of St
Louis and the bride an admired and popular
h hlsrnoer Oh Wen known family. The young
which was at that period a very fashionable
residence quarter, and was hardly more than
an infant when death deprived her of her
mothers tender care, but when the little Miss
Berenice was about five years old Mr. Morrison
married a second wife. Miss Bissell, daughter OF
OLD Gen. BiSSell. There were no children born
OF this marriage, and the DEATH first OF her step
mother and then OF her iather, left Miss Bere-
nice Morrison sole heir to the large fortune of
william Morrison, her property amounting in
value to more than 81, 100000.
Inc brldegroom-elect Is young j. p. Fuller.
Mrs. Fuller, his mother, was a protege of the
late William Morrison. and people often mis-
took Mrs. Fuller and Miss Berenice for sisters
Mrs Fuller was left penniless widow. and
SO Miss Morrlson, who is as generous as she is
rich, took Mrs. Fuller as her companion, there
being but trifiing difference of age and great
congeniality OF interests. This pleasant and
for Mrs. Fuller, profitable relation has lasted
for a number OF years, and when Miss Morri-
SON decided to make a tour of Europe some
eighteen years ago, Mrs. Fuller was her com.
pdgnon du UOydge all through the term of five
years over which the sojourn extended though
where the little j. p. Fuller spent those years
is not known to the scrbe-perhaps with his
mamma and wife-to-be in foreign travel.
Young Mr.. Fuller, his mother and his bride
have gone with Gen. John .B Henderson and
Mrs. Henderson to southern California to spend
the winter. Later they will take a trip to
Honolulu and the marriage will take place in
June.
