SPECIAL REHEARSALS.

A special rehearsal of the woodwind
choir of the New Haven Symphony or
chestra is called for this afternoon. A
full attendance of the members Is de-
sired. Special preparation and extra
rehearsals are being given for the even
ing Symphony concert on December Z
strings were rehearsed alone yesterday
and were severely overhauled by Pro-
fessor Parker. Since his recent visit to
Europe Professor Parker seems to have
greater ambitions for the local organi-
cation than ever before, and the work
this fall has been of the most exacting
character. The results of this zeal on
Professor Parker's part We're evident at
the first concert, and the programme
announced for December plainly shows
that no relaxation is to be allowed The
accompaniment for the Rubenstein
concerto will be great test Of the or
chestra's capabilities.

TIE TEMPLE CONCERT.


The concert at the Mishkan Israel
Temple last night was a very enjoyable
and creditable showing of what local
talent can accomplish. The Temple
was well filled and the affair was en-
tirely successful. With the exception
of Miss Levy the soprano, who comes
from Boston, the participants were all
local musicians. The presence of Prof.
Parker and Mr.. Troostwyck of the de-
partment of music at Yale university,
lent especial dignity to the affair. Space
will not admit of a detailed account Of
the various performances, and it must
suffice to say the programme was
thoughtfully, devised and rendered
throughout with sincerity and enthu7
siasm Prof Parker's organ playing
was particularly interesting, and it is
always a pleasure to hear the beauti-
full temple organ. Mr.. Troostwyck' $
selection, a transcription of Bruch's
"Kol Nidrea," was appropriate to the
occasion and sympatheically played
The vocalists were Miss Levy, Mr..
Weld and Mr.. Lautenbach. Miss Levy
has a charming voice and singe with
fine temperament. Joseph Rice, the or
ganist of the temple, was an excellent
accompanist. and contributed pleasant
ly to the success of the programme by
his careful registration and skillful
manipulation of the instrument.

A FAMOUS OLD TREE STUMP.

The stump Of buttonball tree stands II
front of the large old house in Greenwich
this state, which was for many years occu
pied by Mrs. Elizabeth Beecher, sister
ln-aw of Henry Ward Beecher. Mrs
Beecher kept n school for young women
and it is said that many n toethsome
spread has been laid In the hollow of the
old tree by her students. The stump may
be seen at one side of the old Boston and
New York post road, and the tree Is said tc
have played patriotic part in the drama
of the War of independence. AT one time
the lives Of an officer and four of his aides
were saved by the hospitable hollow of the
trunk In which they sought shelter from
the enemy. Word had been received by the
officer. whose home was in Greenwich, while
he was eating his supper, that the British
were seeking him. and he and his men had
Just time to slip into the hollow when the
enemy passed them so close, 1t Is said, that
their coat skirts could have been seized by
those they were seeking, and who were so
strangely hidden from them. The tree is
supposed to be at least 200 years old, and
has been struck by lightning several times.
A final severe wind and thunder storm
worked such havoc that only the stump as
it now appears was left standing. After
that catastrophe a friend of the patriotic
old tree fastened an American flag to the
summit of It's Jagged stump. Stamford Re-
