A SMALL ATTENDANCE

at Last Evenings Concert by the Philhar-
monic at Y. VI. c. A. Hall.
The attendance at the concert given
last evening by the Philharmonic Club,
at Y. M. c. A. hall, was shamefully
small. The word "shamefully" is used
advisedly, for the programme was an
attractive one, and was more than we'll
worked out. Seldom, indeed. has there
been better Interpretation of chamber
music in this city, whether one con-
siders technical ability, comprehen-
siveness of reading, or general beauty
of rendition. The ability of the quar-
tette, individually and collectively, was
never better shown, and it is cause for
wonder that there was not a far larger
audience.
The opening number was the Haydn
quartette in d. major, OPP. "a, No. s. II
was magnificently given, the second
adagio movement particularly appeal
ing to musical ears. The interpreted
tion of the entire number was finished
and conscientious, and was alone suf-
ficient to fix the high standing of the
organization.
Two dainty numbers following were
the Thomas gavotte and Froehlich's
In Thoughts The latter was parti-
cularly charming and was played with
a delicacy and feeling which captivated
the audience, and repetition was in
sisted upon.
In the second part Mr.. Schockey
showed his abilities as a pianist, the
three numbers being trios. The Her
bert "Serenade" also had to be repeat
ed before the audience was satisfied,
while Thome's Simple Aveu" was a
fitting companion piece The Men,
delssohn trio OPP. 40, concluded the pro-
gramme. The reading was a splendid
one, the opening movement. motto al
legro agitato, being particularly at
tackled with force and spirit, and upon
broad lines. The andante was deli
cately and carefully taken, while the
| finale was a masterpiece OF clear-cut
| work. -
The concert as a whole was such a
| one as should command a large and
cultured audience in this city at least
| once in two weeks, and those present
are indebted to Mrs. Nellie Warren
Holloway for an evening of music
such as may not be repeated during the
| season, unless there is a guarantee OF
better attendance and wider public APP
probation.

BRIDGEPORT COUNCIL

Met in Regular Session Last Night-Ordi-
nance TO Allow the Wheeling Street Rail
way to Connect Their Lines at Bank and
Bridge streets Did Not Come Up.
The Bridgeport Council met in reg
ular session last night at the Town
Hall in Bridgeport, and passed on the
usual monthly bills. The ordinance
providing for the keeping open of sa-
looms after midnight was amended
in such a way as to give the Mayor
authority to fine saloon keepers not
complying with the laws any amount
under $50. Under the old ordinance
the minimum fine for saloon keepers
not complying with this law was $40.
An ordinance providing for the issue
of $4,000 street paving bonds was
passed to the first reading. The
proposition to allow the Wheeling
Street Railway Company to connect
their tracks at the corner OF Bank ana
Bridge streets did not come up. The
reason is thought to be on account OF
the absence of Mr.. Riley, the champion
in Council of the five cent
fare between Bridgeport and
Wheeling. Council adjourned TO
meet Tuesday, December 10th, at
which time it is expected that the or
dinance providing for the issuing OF the
STE 900 bond for street improvement
will be passed.

DR.. TURTH 5 OPINION
OF THE NEW DISCOVERY m 1EEDI.
CINE.
A Remarkably Successful Remedy foz
Dyspepsia, Indigestion and Stom-


Dyspepsia, Indigestion and Stom-
ach troubles.
DIR. Wurth in commenting on recent
discoveries in medicine said: There is
none which is certain to be so valuable
and far reaching in benefit as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, the new stomach
remedy; l say far reaching, because
people little realize how important a
sound stomach and vigorous digestion
is to every man, woman and child.
Indigestion is the starting point of
consumption, heart disease, Bright's
disease, diabetes, nervous prostration,
liver troubles; why is this so? Simply
because every nerve, muscle and tissue
in our bodies is created and nourished
from the food we eat. If that food is,
by reason of weak stomach, COM
PEELED to lie for hours, sour, ferment-
ing mass of half digested food it poi
sons the blood and nervous system,
creates gas which distends the stomach
and bowels, causing pressure on the
heart, lungs and other organs, and
seriously impeding their action.
He says further, the point to direct
attention is not the nerves, nor heart,
nor lungs, nor kidneys, but the StOm-
ach, the first cause of all the mischief.
The remedy to use for indigestion
and weak stomachs is not some cathar-
tic, but remedy which will digest the
food, increase the flow of gastric juice,
absorb the gases, and Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets will accomplish exactly
this result in any case of stomach
trouble, because these tablets are COM
posed of the digestive acids, aseptic
pepsin, Golden Seal and bismuth,
pleasant to taste, and not being pat
ent medicine, can be used by anyone
with perfect safety. l believe Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets will cure any form
of indigestion and stomach trouble ex-
cept cancer of stomach.
Full size packages of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets are sold by druggists
at so cents, or by mail from F. A.
Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich. A book
on stomach diseases together with
thousands of testimonials will be sent
by addressing above or call on your
druggist for them.

TRUST - DECISION WAS MADE
AND FACTS PUBLISHED SOME
TIME AGO-TORONTO. O., PAPER
PUBLISHES SOME INSIDE INFCR-
NATION CONCERNING THE PRO-
Posed TRUST
The evening paper, noted for its
publication of unreliable rumors, con-
tanned another space-killing story We )
terday about an alleged deal in which
the Wheeling pottery was to be alb
sorbed by the pottery trust. AS given
out authoritatively by members of the
company and published weeks ago in
the Register, all rumors to this effect
are untrue. 1t was stated posi-
lively that the Wheeling pottery and
the other local plants will not be sold
to the trust, and that the local pottery
manufacturers had no faith that the
scheme would ever be consummated.
Although the promoters of the trust
have been working assiduously for
months past, the success of their VEN
ture in organizing sufficient number
of potteries has not been established.
Among the firms which are known to
have refused to go into the trust are
the Wheeling Pottery Company and
the Warwick Pottery Company, OF
Wheeling; the Akron China Company
of Akron, o.; the American China
Company, of Toronto, O.; the East
Palestine, O., Pottery Company; the
Ford City, Pa, China Company; and
the Wick China Company, of Kittan-
ming, Pa.
In connection with the trust, the fol-
lowing interesting information is given
by the Tribune, of Toronto, O.:
"a gentleman who is we'll posted in
the progress of the intended white
ware combine says he does not think
the scheme will win. He is of the
opinion that the scheme originates
with a number of large firms at East
Liverpool, who have found that the
pTOuuCllOu VI luc SlidilOl laStoiiOo -
this and other sections of the country
is very materially interfering with
prices and their trade. A promoter,
therefore, has been trying to incor-
porate all these plants into combine
in order to control prices and product.
They have succeeded partially, but a
number of firms in the United States
cannot be brought into the scheme, and
it may fail of it's own purpose. True IT
is that a number of Eastern Ohio man
ufacturers have visited the New York
headquarters to get the inside of the
scheme, and the information obtained
has been far from satisfactory. There
has been nothing to prove that j. Pier
pont Morgan & Co. are at the head OF
the proposed trust. The only aSsur-
ance given was that the promoters
had ample funds at their disposal
They even sent out purported author
lied kilograms from New York City
TO bring in the concerns who were
apathetic on the subject. But this
failed to connect, and promoter is
reported to be in East Liverpool now.

The news of the bombardment Of Ma

Washington, instructing him TO hold his
command i'm readiness for immediate de-
parture with rations for thirty days.
This is the first authentic information
regarding the future movements of the

bracing the troops here and at Port
Tampa, has been divided into two 6ri-
gades. Colonel Cochran. the senior rank
ing officer i'm the camp. has been appoint
ed commander of the First Brigade. and
Colonel John :. Poland. the next ranking
officer, 70 the Second Brigade.
The hrst includes the Fifth, Sixth,
Ninth and Thirteenth Regiments. The

The order from Washington relating
10 the movements Of the first brigade

now stationed At Chickamauga will be
here In a few days.
These troops consist Of 300 infantry,

lieve that the purpose OF the army and
