THE TEACHERS GUILD.
Another Brilliant and Successful En-
tertainment Last Night.

Another Brilliant and Successful En-
tertainment Last Night.
The entertainment at the new Music
hall last evening, given for the benefit
of the Connecticut Teachers guild was
attended by a larger number than on
the first night. Almost all who took
part in the entertainment are or have
been members of the New Haven
schools. The programme, which con-
sisted mainly of musical numbers, was
enjoyed by the audience, who insisted
upon encore to every number except
the choruses.
Prof. Jepson has developed an excel
lent chorus and deserves to be COM
mended. The training of a chorus of
boys and girls demands more work
and skill than the training of two or
three choruses of older people. The
Washington birthday chorus of boys
displayed their skill in a truly boyish
accomplishment by whistling the chorus
of "Glory Hallelujah."
Because of the present excitement
about Cuba and her struggle the au-
dience was in a mood to enjoy and
appreciate the National Allegory'
written by Mrs. e. B. Platt. Miss Pill
cher's appearance as Cuba" was
greeted by enthusiastic applause, which
was not entirely due to the part which
she represented.
The use of 300 silk flags in this was
an excellent idea and they made fine
show. The various states of the union
were represented by as many young
ladies from the Boardman and Hill
house high schools.

has been carried for the republican
party at three elections, and if it is not
republican in the future it will be be-
cause the party is split up by the va

have been named and the platform
framed their influence is used for the
success of the party at the polls"

The second of the Kneisel quartette
concerts was given at the College street
hall last evening. 1t was one of the
most delightful concerts of the season
and was attended by the usual assem-
blage Of cultured music lovers.
The concert opened with Borodine's
posthumous quartette in D major,
which Is an unfamiliar work. 1t was a
beautiful quartette remarkable for the
spontaneity and freshness of it's themes
and interesting in their treatment. The
second number was the familiar Men
delssohn "Canzonetta.' The third and
last number was the c major quar-
tette from Beethoven's opus SO.
The quartette played in the afternoon
at Mendelssohn hall in New York with
Siloti, the Russian pianist, who was
heard here recently.
