The Music in the Churches Yesterday
 Other Items.
 Christmas was celebrated in all the Episcopal and Catholic churches yes terday by elaborate and appropriate musical services, as is the custom with these denominations. At St. Mary's the music was especially fine at all the services. At the early mass a quartet sang. At the 10:30 service solemn high mass was sung by the full chorus choir with the Philharmonic orchestra under the leadership of MT. Fichtl, and the organ at which Mr. Rice, the organist of the church, presided, all under the di- rectiOn of MT. J. D. Plunkett, who has successfully guided the musical affairs of this church for several years The program was selected from the famous and popular masses and was well ren- dered in every feature. The solos which fell to the Misses Sullivan, Kivlan. Ward and MT. Lautenbach were specially good In the afternoon a new vesper service was sung. The numbers are brilliant and effective and attracted especial attention because the compos- CTS name has not been divuIged. Mir Plunkett heard them in Italy and was delighted with them. but for the pres ent they will be sung 'incog."
 At St. Pauls and Trinity elaborate programs were rendered. The anthem al Trinity was beautifully done At St. Paul's some of the selections sung at Dr. Griggs' last lecture were repeated with good effect At the Church of the Sacred Heart Miss Gaffney assisted the choir by singing Shelley's "Christmas" s"
 An interesting event to the choir singers in this city will be the appear ance of the Lyndsay Operatic com pany next Monday evening. The com pany consists of the very competent Hartford quartet, who have sung here so often at the musical conventions. All the members are good singers and clever artists, and they ought to reap a big harvest for the blind.
 Many things are promised for the new year of interest and moment. Some song recitals are prospected. the possi- ble appearance here of the pianists and composers, MacDOweH and Scharweu- ka. The symphony orchestra will give q Schubert symphony at their next con- cert.
 The work to be done next by the Gounod society has not been decided upon, but it will probably be a secular work. Whatever it is it is intended to do it upon a fine scale and make it per feet as far as orchestra and soloists are concerned.

Christmas Out of Doors.

The prophesied rain failed to make its appearance yesterday although the aspect of the eky was threatening dur ing the entire day. The day was unus- ually warm for Christmas and was more like day in October than one in December, Not many persons were on the streets yesterday and nearly everyone was evidently enjoying home comforts although the trolley cars did a good business and were well crowded during the greater part of the day and evening. Many of the stores were open short time in the forenoon and de- livery wagons and express wagons were busy delivering holiday goods and the great numbers of presents arriving by express.

 Robbed.
 New London. Dec. 25.-A most daring and clever burglary was perpetrated last night or early this morning in the extensive retail dry goods establish ment of Huber X Chittenden, one of the largest dealers in eastern Connecticut. Every dollar in the place was taken. The route over which the burglars passed before efrecting an entrance was torturous and indicated that the burg lars, who were undoubtedly professions als, were familiar with the place, They entered an alley leading off Bank street, made their way over numerous low wooden buildings, pried off the iron screens placed before rear windows, broke the locks and entered once in- side, they bored several holes in the safe, took rolls of carpet and pieces of velvet draperies, saturated them with water and placed them against the safe to deaden the noise of the explosion, Inserting dynamite, they ignited fuses and the explosion occurred. The front of the safe was blown cleanly off. Sll- yer to the amount of $77 was taken and bills amounting to $500 were stolen. Had it not been for the fact that the firm made bank deposit yesterday the haul would have been much larger. Two men spent a long time in the store yes terday afternoon. They were strangers in town and it is thought that they are the burglars.
