be hoed level, sowing on the seed and then

in September gave good results. @. W.

THE MIDSUMMER CONCERT.

Mr \. y. BigeloW is certainly entitled
To the thanks of our people for delightful
evening spent with his friends, the Men
delsSohn Glee quartet. Oh Saturday night
last The whole concert, from beginning
To end, was delight Ii is very seldom
that a successful male quartet is composed
OF good soloiSts, but this one surely is.
Not every listener perhaps realizes the diff
ticulty experienced by solo artists in los
ing their Identity in quartet singing SO
completely as these artists have succeeded
in doing. The selections We're generally
well chosen and charmingly rendered. 1t
goes without saying that there exist differ
ences of opinion as to the proper render
ing of certain selections, but that the audi
ence We're well satisfied was evidenced by
their generous applause. To none was
this more enthusiastically given than TO
the solo 10y the first tenor, Mr., Prime, and
the duet by him and the first bass, Mr.,
Hall. They were revelations of great vocal
ability and cultivation. coupled with dram
attic power of a high order.
On Sunday evening the voices of the
quartet were still further heard at the ser
vice in the Centre church. when the large
audience in attendance not only found their
singing rare musical treat but experienced
in it true religious quality and a real up
lifting. The members of the club We're
cordially received socially in Brattleboro,
and evidently found their stay pleasant
one. After the concert on Saturday even
ing they We're given an impromptu recep-
tion at the Shea residence on Oak street,
where a company of guests still further en-
joyed their singing with the addition of Sc
lections by Miss Shea
Our music lovers will be glad TO know
that before leaving for home on Monday
afternoon the members of the quartet def
nitely promised TO return to BnttleborC
early in September, when another concert
will be given, i'm which the wife of Mr.
Hall, cOntralto soloist of note, will also
be heard

The Production of an Estcy organ
Bearing this Number to De DuIy CcIe-
brRtcd.
An event is down for the 18th of August
which promises to be notable In the annals
of Brattleboro. For year or more it has
been known by friends OF the Estey Organ
company that the time was rapidly APP
preaching when the 2jO,OOOth organ made
by that company would be manufactured,
marking an important event in the remark
able progress of the concern, and that the
occasion would be celebrated in a suitable
way. As when the lOO,OOOth organ was
produced a new organ OF special design was
issued, so a leading feature of this ceebra-
ton will be the introduction to the organ
trade and the public of an instrument of
special scope and design. 1t is the plan of
the company to hold the celebration on the
grounds of Col. j. j. Estey. While the
exercises will, as a matter of course, be
largely of a musical nature the presence of
men of prominence who will address the
audience is hoped for The invitations
will include the governor and staff and all
other state officers. Prof. =. i. Whitney,
the celebrated organist of the Church of
the Advent, Boston, has promised to at
tend. It's hoped also that Mrs. LAWN will
consent 10 sing, although definite an
nouncement which has been made TO this
effect is premature. The First Regiment
band is under engagement to put itself in
the best possible shape for this event, and
some OF the finest music which the band
has ever rendered may therefore be eX-
pected. a collation. will be- served at a
suitable hour In the evening the Estey
factories will be brilliantly Illuminated. and
there will be a fine display OF fre-work,
from the meadow in front of the shops
This celebration, it is hardly necessary tc
say. will undoubtedly attract more atten.
ton to Brattleboro from the country at
large than any which has ever been held
. here.
