SYMPHONY CONCERTS.
The great musical event of the year will
be the four grand symphony concerts to
be given at the Hyperion theater by Mr..
Seidl on the dates advertised Much labor
and pains have been taken to induce this
great conductor to include New Haven
in his concert tour, and appreciation of
these efforts should be shown by a large
subscription list. Seats are being rapidly
taken up, and those who have not vet
secured theirs should do SO at once.
There being no German opera this winter,
these concerts supply the necessary void,
and enables all to listen to the wonderful
musical portions from Wagner's great
operas.
Y.M A.
A large and intelligent crowd of people
gathered at the Atheneum to listen to the
first of the series of Y. NJ G. A. entertain
ments given by the Dudley Buck quartette,
assisted by Mr.. Isidore Troostwyk, violin
lists and Miss Nellie Williams, accompar-
ist. The members of the quartette are all
eminent soloists in different churches in
New York city and Brooklyn. The play
ing of Mr.. Troostwyk was a rare treat
Indeed, as a whole, the concert was very
successful and the quartette may be sure
of hearty welcome if they should come
here again.

After the Fire.

Professor Day was seen yesterday and
said: Althoug h the professors have sui,
fered considerable loss by the fire, the
losses sustained by the students are very
large and most of those who have suffered
losses can iii afford it. The rooms on the
top floor were all burned out. Many men
lost all their clothes and books. One
young man, who was paying his expenses
by canvassing, had a large supply OF
books on hand that were entirely spoiled,
and which he will have to make good to
the company. Aside from the losses the
men are put to the additional expense OF
finding rooms outside. We, personally,
will do all we can to help them, and ii
any of the Christian people of this city
want to assist the young men, 1 shall be
glad to receive any such contributions.
Professor Harris also expressed his will
ingness to receive contributions and his
sympathy for the young men.
Many of the students will for a time
room over in West Divinity, but this must
only be temporary, as the rooms are not
large enough to accommodate them. II
will take months before the recitation
rooms can be used and in the meanwhile
meeting rooms in Dwight hall. To.
day chapel exercises will be held
in the circular room of Dwight
hall. By Friday Marquand chapel can be
used for that purpose. The lecture room
of North church has been put at their dis
posal, but will probably not be needed.
President Dwight was very active in Sc
| curing funds for East Divinity and always
looked on the building with especial pride
The news of the fire will have time tc
reach him before he starts.
The four colored students in the divinity
| school all suffered serious losses to their
outfits of books, furniture, clothing, etc.
The iremen speak in the very highest
terms of the excellent order and able man
ner in which the fire lines were established
and the large crowd kept back out of the
| way that they might better fight the fire
| in East Divinity hall on Tuesday evening
No small degree of credit is deserved or
the part of Captains Wrinn, O'Keefe and
Sergeant Croker, for the able manner that
| they took charge of the crowd and the ex.
cellent judgment displayed on this occa
sion.

Propesition.B Before the Western Colo
RADIO Congress.
DENVER, Oct, From reports received
here sensation is promised at the meet
ing of the Western Colorado congress at
Grand Juction, in the shape of a proposition
to divide the state ofColorado For some time
past the towns on the western slope have
been dissatisfied with the treatment they
have received at the hands of the railroad
companies in their construction of the in
terstate commerce law, as compared with
the towns on the eastern slope. This con-
vention will demand the immediate change
of existing rules and rates, and in case it
is refused an effort will be made to have
the state divided-the line to be the
Great Continental divide. Whether
this can be accomplished or not is a
question, but there is no doubt about
there being desire for it. A politician
declares that the whole affair is simply a
scheme of the west slope politicians who
want to go to Washington as representa-
tives of a new state.

its initial rally of the campaign in Faneuil
hall tonight, and considering the bad
weather there was quite large number
out. Chairman Washbnrne of the state
central committee presided and introduced
