w. A. Lord, speaker, was read, and
Hon. Kittredge Harkins was elected in
his place.
The special session is called to vote
money for the equipment and susten-
ance of the Vermont regiment and ad-
ditional pay for the on-commissioned
officers, musicians and privates. TWO

month to each soldier for this purpose.
Congratulatory resolutions to Acting

ted to the insane asylum.

Fort Ethan Allen tomorrow, and the
mayor has invited the citizens to turn

INHALED GAS.
| John Larsen Found Unconscious in
Room in the Central House.

John Larsen Found Unconscious in a
Room in the Central House.
John Larsen, a Swede, aged twenty
three, was found in room at the Gem
trail house at 81 and Al Church street,
yesterday morning in a critical condi-
ton from having inhaled gas. He is a
farm hand, and he has a brother, Peter
Larsen, who lives in Fair Haven East,
and who works for DR. Moody on his
place. He was taken to the New Ha-
ven hospital, where he recovered con-
seriousness about o'clock, and it was
thought last evening that he would re-
cover.
Larsen comes to the Central house
quite often and had been stopping in
room 81 of the hotel for the past few
days. The chambermaid detected gas
escaping from the room about 80 and
gave the alarm. The door was broken
down and Larsen found insensible
from the gas which was escaping from
the gas jet which was partly turned on.
How the gas came turned on is not yet
known.

I'm A PERSIAN GARDEN"

To be Given With the New York Cast
Liza Lehmanns song-cyclus "In a
Persian Garden" will be given at the
hall of the Historical society building

given with the same cast that has sung
the work with such tremendous sue
cess in New York at the Waldorf
Astoria, namely. Mrs. Seabury Ford,
soprano: Miss Marguerite Hall, con-
tralto; Mackenzie Gordon, tenor, and
Carl Duff, basso; Victor Harris, ac-

Miss Martha Fl. Wurts, 113 Whitney
avenue. Something in the way of a
preliminary programme will be given
to be decided on in day or two.
"In a Persian Garden has brought
Liza Lehman into sudden prominence
in the musical world Previously she
was known simply as song singer in
London and as the composer of some
rather charming songs. In setting to
music the "Rubaiyat" Of Omar Khayam
she has accomplished an unusual task
in a wonderfully successful manner.
She has called it "song-cyclus for
four voices" The "Rubaiyat" are ar
ranged sometimes as quartets, some
times as solos or duets, the piano ac-
compartment being always highly dra-
matte in spirit and strongly oriental in
coloring. 1t appears not only to the
musician but to the student of Omar
who cannot but enjoy the sympathetic
rendition of the famous stanzas of the
poet, Astronomer.
