THE Joint committee from the city of
Montpelier aud town of Berlin appointed
to consider the question of annexing por-
ton of that town to Montpelier by legsa-
tive enactment met last evening in the of
fee of j. q. Brown. The utmost harmony
prevailed and the sentiment expressed was
strongly in favor of such scheme. Joel
Foster laid before the meeting plans and
reports of several preliminary surveys made
by MIN with the assistance of Sheriff Ban
croft. After some discussion Mr.. Foster
was authorized to make an accurate survey
OF the territory bounded on the west by
Dog river, on the east by Stevens branch,
on the north by the Wnooski river, and in
the south by the line farms of the j. r.
Langdon estate, Leland Brothers, John
Cook, Leonard Lawrence, Isaac Craven, G.
L. Pltkln and the reservoir. Were it not
Tor the DEPRESSION made to take in the res.
ervoir this southerly line would be nearly
straight and embraces nearly the identical
territory that originally was set to the town
OF Montpelier, about 300 acres in all. I'M
less some unforeseen hostile sentiment soon
develops the annexation scheme will I'M
doubleday be reality before the final adj.
journment Of the Legislature.

Herr Theo. Hoch. This company came
direct from Boston where 1t opened the
Young Mems Christian Association Star
course on Thursday evening. Each and
every member is star, and whether in
solo or symphony work excels in brilliant,
elastic and deft Interpretation of classical
masters. Miss Biederman is gifted with q
voice rich and pure. She captured her au-
dience with her pure information, and earned
her encores W tn really delightful singing.
Mr. Otto Lund is superb violinist, playing
with refinement OF feeling, splendid tech
nique and sentient individuality that was
marked. His tone is sympathetic, his bow
ing firm and elastic, while his perfect into.
nation and mastery double stopping Great
ed furore. AS a celloist Mr.. M. Blodeck
has peculiarly supple and elastic bow, q
finished technique and graceful bearing
that mark him as one OF the finest solo
violincellists OF his time. Whenever
Henry Theo. Hook played enthusiasm was
unbounded. and while, with such talent,
comparisons are odious, he easily carried
off the honors. 1t would be waste OF ad-
jectives to attempt to describe his matchless
execution, fullness of tone and wonderful
interval playing. He is brilliant and fin
ished virtuoso-a white diamond OF mar
vellous brilliancy. Mr.. Richard Stoelzer
won deserved applause by his mastery
rendering of "Viola d'Armour," the solo
against his name. He generously respond
cd to repeated calls for a second selection.
In this opening concert the "Star" course
has struck gait that will be hard TO follow
| through the season.
