RECITALS TONIGHT

MT. Percy,s First Benefit Recital al
 Dwight Place Church-In Battell
 Chapel-Other Musical Events.
 This evening will occur the first of the benefit farewell organ reoitals which are to be rendered Richard T. Percy at the Dwight Place church. Mir. Percy's repu- tation as an organist is well known in this city and his recitals have always been largely attended. The recital this evening is particularly attractive from the fact that Mir. Percy will be assisted by the eminent tenor, William H. Rieger, whose exquisite voice has been heard with delight in con. cert and oratorio in nearly every large city in the country. MT. Rieger's last appear ance here was in the Elijah, and those who heard him then will be glad of the oppor- tunity of having renewed the pleasant i'm pression he made then.
 The second recital will occur next Mon- day evening, when the assisting artists will be Frederick Gillette, the baritone of Ply mouth church, Brooklyn, Otto D. Binger, cellist, and Miss Bertha Lincoln, soprano. The admission to each recital will be fifty cents. Tickets may be procured at Loomis', at Barnes drug store in Fair Ha- ven, or of the members of the Ladies' Glee o1rh

head of a prosperous firm, promised his
newly welded wife that he would give
her a dollar every time he kissed her,

money. Things went ON in this way for
several years, and, as he made plenty of
money, he faithfully kept his promise.
Finally reverses came and the once pros
porous travelling man found that he
was virtually pauper. He went home
to his wife and told her all She, how
ever, did not seem to feel worried, and
he was somewhat surprised when she
asked him to take ride with her that
afternoon, but he accepted her invita-
ton.

street she said, That's mine" Soon
she came to a handsome fat and said,

said, 81 was thinking of how rich we

"snd his name is Blaine, Blaine, Blaine!'
Chairman Hopkins read a telegram
just received from Senator Cullom,
in which be said "the people of the
nation will confirm the republican
party in power in all branches of
the government and make sure and
