The REORG AIMED PHILHARMONIC CLUE

IN ChickeHng Hall last night tho Philharmonic Club
gave the first concert OF its fourteenth The
many changes which have taken place in the personnel
of the club have eliminated in reorganization which
has left little OF the oris snal club than Mr. wener

IL was evident from the number OF pieces played
last night that the Old policy Of the club Is To b
maintained. including the production Of compositions
written for the club. In this respect change would
perhaps have been welcomed By many lovers Of
chamber music for It mus: be confessed that there
IS little 10 be said rule in commendation OF
tets for aute two vloins, viola, viooncello and

for variety OF tona color and makes no appeal for

The value of the New-York Free Circulating
Library, with i's four branches, is effectively
demonstrated by the use which is made of it,
The reports for the past year show n larger circu-
lation OF books at each Of the branches than in
the year previous This is gratifying in itself
not less gratifying is the statement made in the
reports Of a constant tendency on the part of the
patrons TO read less of fiction and more of solid
literature Considering the freedom allowed to
people to carry books 10 their homes, the number
lost is surprisingly small The library appeals
70 the public for money. Any one who responds
70 the appeal will have the consciousness that he
is helping a most worthy cause.

The disposition Of the estate OF Mrs. Kober1
l.. Stuart is a matter Of more than ordinary in
terest So much money has been given away
for benevolent purposes by h@scli and her hu'-
band that the estate. it Is estimated, now amounts
20 it.le, if any. more than $5,000,000. This
/, more widely distributed than the public had
been led to expect. There are considerable
number of personal bequests, after which pro-
vision is made for the distribution OF the entire
remainder of the property among religious, ed
ucational and charitable institutions. The larS-
est bencfciaries will be the American Bible 30

TIE CONNECTICUT DECISION.

The decision Of the Supreme Court Of Con-
nec;icut in the quo warranto case against Gov
emor Buckley sustains the Republican claim
that in the absence of a legal declaration OF elcc-
ton by the two houses of the General Assembly
the incumbent holds over. 1t was very simple
question at the outset. BY tactics similar to
those lately and apparently successfully pursued
by the Democratic managers in this State, a
sufficient number Of ballots cast for Republican
and Prohibition candidates were thrown out by
Town Meeting Moderators to give Judge Morris,
the Democratic candidate for Governor, an ap-
parent majority Of all the voteS-a plurality not
being sufficient, but a clear majority being re-
quired under the Constitution for an election by
the people. In case no candidate for Governor
or other state officer receives a majority of all
the votes cast there is no election by the people,
but the Legislature makes choice between the
