the lovely duet. While recognizing keen
ly the loss, the audience as readily recog-
nized the determined purpose and loyalty
in Miss Allen, as evinced by her journey
of sixty miles to keep her engagement, and
cheerfully accepted the situation.
Miss Allen sang with feeling the lovely
cavatlna, Fac ut portem,' and tn n
came the quartet (unaccompaniedD "Quan-
do corpus" This, with the other quartet,
"Sancta Mater" afforded the best effect
in colorature singing of the evening. Such
numbers, by singers unacquainted with
each others ways and voices, are often
marred by the undue prominence of one
voice or another, but this could not be
said of the singers in these selections.
Utmost sympathy, quick response to the
slightest indication from the conductor,
and tuneful in the extreme, all this and
more might be said of them. The con-
tralto in "Sancta Mater was taken by
Miss Jackson of Bellows Falls, and in
"Quando corpus" by Miss Robertson of
Putney. With the Tremendously effective
singing Of "InAammatus ct accensus,"
with full orchestral accompaniment. the
brasses being most thrilling in their pas
sages, and with Miss Allen, the soloist,
taking G sharp in alt. in the closing bars,
this most delightful evening came TO its
close
There were many other salient features
in connection with this presentation that
might, perhaps ought, TO be mentioned,
but space will not admit. Suffice it TO say
that, for real, efficient chorus work we
think Brattleboro need not 60 away from
home. The chorus was quick to catch the
slightest indication of their leader. their
attack was in the best style, their pro-
nunciation distinct and clearly defined,
their harmony unmarried and their enthu-
slasm was unbounded
II is worthy of note that at no time has
Brattleboro possessed as good material for
an orchestra suited to the rendering of
such works as these, as at the present
time. Quite generally rose the question
who is that young first violinist?" Mr..
Clinton Dugan, with his associates, is GER
talnly entitled to much praise for the sue
cess OF the orchestral part in the program.
But what of the pianist? 1t has been a
source OF regret for 20 years that Annie
wilkins, the young and gifted sister of
mary, was removed by death from our midst,
ana rarely has there been anyone available
VINO could accompany in solo and chorus
work especially the latter as Annie Will
klns could. In Miss Bruce, however, the I'm
ion has found fitting successor, and none
know better than the conductor and the
members of the chorus how much they are
indebted to her for her patient, unremitting
toll in an ungrateful and often unappre.
clated role. Not so here, however, for all
are anxious to re der her the due need of
praise.
Mr.. Hawley, the director, has abundant
reason for satisfaction at the outcome of
his three months hard work. We under
stand that there will be a cessation of re-
hearsals during February, but that in the
early summer another concert will be
given

CROWLEY'S DEPOSITION.
The Chief of Police Would Not Break
Up the Headquarters of the
See Yups.

The hearing of the case of the See Yup
Society against Fong Yuen Hing, the
Chinese Consul, was resumed in United
States Commissioner Heacock's s court yes
terday with the offering in evidence by
the attorney for the society of the deposit
ton of Chief of Police Crowley.
Durin the early part OF the hearing of
the case Attorney J. G. Campbell, who
represents the See Yups, said that he in
tended to prove that the Chief had been
approached by the Consul, who asked him
to break up the See Yup Society by wreck
ing it's headquarters.
That the Chief refused to because he
thought it was unlawful, and told the Con-
sui to do it himself if he was so anxious to
have it done.
That the Consul had offered to indem-
nifty the Chief against damages in $4,000
and later in $40, 900, but that the head of
the Police Department had refused to
have anything to do with the matter on
the ground that no indemnity would JUS
tify an unlawful act.
The deposition produced bore out the
statements made by Mr.. Campbell, and
will be among the important documents
that will be laid before the Chinese Minis
ter at Washington, and before the Ma
tional Government, if such measure be-
comes necessary.

Alonzo j. Whiteman, Notorious Con-
fdence Operator, Arrested for Swim
ding New York Bank.
Captain Lees was notified last night by
the Pinkerton agency, New York, that
Alonzo ]. Whiteman had been arrested
there for swindling the Columbia Bank,
SOL Fifth avenue. On February 20 he de-
posted in the bank check for $500 that
afterward proved to be forged, and on
February % presented a check for $500,
drawn to order of currency" and got the
money.
Whiteman, according to the Pinkertons
and Captain Lees, ID one OF the most no
torious confidence operators and forgers
in the United States. About two years
ago he passed a forged check for $500,
signed Frank Dixon. on J. d. Maxwell,
an insurance agent.
He was arrested IN New Jersey and
fought his extradition, but was finally
brought back here by Detective Ross
Whitaker and tried for the crime OF
forgery. Judge Wallace on August 80,
1895, sentenced him to nine years in San
Quentin, but in September, 1896. he was
granted new trial and was acquitted.
Whiteman at one time was mem Der OF
the State Senate of Minnesota. He squan-
dered between 5000 900 and $500, 600 in
herited from his fathers estate. Then he
became professional swindler and ope-
rated in different cities. His sister, Mrs.
Gibbs of Dansville, N. T., always came to
his relief and he esca ped punishment.
