What Colonel Graves Says of Address
to Be Issued.
Colonel E. M. Graves Of Hartford,
formerly of this city, member Of the
democratic state central committee,
was in this city yesterday arranging
for the meeting of the special commit
tee appointed to issue an address to the
voters of Connecticut.
The meeting will be held in the Allyn
house, Hartford, next Thursday, at
noon, and it will be important in it's
bearing on the future course to be pur-
sued by the party in the state.
The committee was appointed by
Joint convention of the state. central
committee and prominent party men of
the state, held in this city last fall
Colonel Graves in an interview, said
he could not foresee what would consti-
tute the salient expressions of the ad-
dress, but thought that the appeal
would not back down from the stand
taken by the party in 1896.
'.I do not say that the committee will
make the declarations of the Chicago
platform the most prominent feature
of the address," said Colonel Graves,
s'but / do not think the committee will
recede from the pronounced position
taken by the party in the past. think
that large part, and perhaps the most
conspicuous part of the address will be
devoted to an enumeration of the evils
in the government of our state and a
discussion of the same, and probably
the next state campaign will be fought

enterprise in carrying trade to the Yu-

their base of supplies To explorations
of this kind, performed in the service Of

Campbell, we owe the discovery of the

danger appeared to be taken into ac-
count, and in spite of every obstacle a
way was opened and a series Of posts,
established. James Anderson in 1858
wrote: You can hardly conceive the in

Frances lake. They endeavor to be ex-

company had lost IA employees in this
region, three from starvation and eight

Bleeding Western Farmers Who Were

Western Farmers Who Were
Anxious to Wed.
Bridgeport, Feb. 7.-Detective Cron-
an arrested Joseph H. Curtis yesterday
for using the mails for fraudulent pur-
poses. The arrest was made at the in
stance of United States Marshal Hayes
who took his prisoner to New Haven
to-day for trial, where he was brought
before Commissioner Wright and held
to answer in $1,000 bonds.
Curtis is young man and the police
express surprise that he was clever
enough to work the game he did. for
he has the appearance of a fellow of
ordinary intellect.
His scheme was an old one, but he
carried it out well. Advertising him
self as a beautiful young girl who de-
sired to marry, he was soon flooded
with responses. Curtis answered all
his letters and all went well for awhile.
Then he desired too much money and
in response to a Kansas farmer named
Gill. he asked for funds to enable him
to go west
The unsuspicious Gill forwarded a
money order for S33. Curtis received
the money and it came SO easy he
thought he would bid for more on the
same line. This he did.
Farmer Gill then became suspicious
of "Jennie's" delayed coming, and sent
the following letter of inquiry to POST
master Steward:

1t took Postmaster Steward an hour
to decipher the letter. The handwrit-
ing was as bad as its spelling and
phraseology. 1t was an unique docu-
ment, laughable yet pathetic. The
postmaster sent to Kansas for more
particulars, and for all the letters, also
instructions to Gill not to send "Jen-
ME- any more money till he heard from
the department.
The postmaster received batch of
letters from the west by return mail

THE KNEISEL QUARTET.
The First Concert at College Street Hall
Last Evening.

The First Concert at College Street Hall,
Last Evening.
The first of the series of three con-
certs by the Kneisel quartet of Boston
was given at the College street hall last
evening. The audience was fair in
numbers and most attentive and APP
preciative. However, the attendance
was far from commensurate with the
Importance of the event. 1t is a most
lamentable fact that New Haven does
not seem inclined to give the Kneisel
quartet the support which is due it. The
efforts of the few generous music-lov
ers to provide series of chamber con-
certs by the organization that is recog-
nized as the best of it's kind in this
country and probably in the world, go
unnoticed by a large class of people in
this city, who would fain be thought
persons of musical taste. And of the
professional class who might profit
most of all by the opportunity there is
hardly representative. One might as
we'll whistle these facts down the wind
as to commit them to cold type be-
cause this class could not be expected
to see the point.
The playing of the quartet last night
was above criticism. 1t was in many
respects an unusual concert. The pro-
gramme was made up of two modern
quartets and the set OF variations from
the A major quartet opus is, of Bee
thoven. The Schurmann A major was
superbly played Throughout the four
movements Mr.. Schroeder, the 'cellist,
did wonderful work and the other play
ers seemed dominated by his presua-
sive personality The second move
ment is marked "Assai Agitate," but
it became "Con Motto Agitato" and the
excitement was kept up in the follow
ing movements. The Beethoven was a
period of classic repose and calm after
the storm and Stress of Schumann.
, The Grieg G minor, opus 81, was also
marvellously we'll done. 1t is a unique
work and most characteristic of the
Norwegian tone-poet. 1t seems at
times as though the composer was 60
ing to exceed the possibilities of the
quartet form. 1t is orchestral in the
breadth of tone required in the climax
es. Grieg has employed all the devices
for tone-color of which the four in
struments are capable and he
thoroughly understands his medium.
Mr.. kniesel and his associates gave a
most beautiful Interpretation of the
work and the performance was one
likely to linger long in the memory.
The concert was a perfect pleasure.
Let us be thankful that there are two
more in store for us
