DELIGHTED HARTFORD Al
DIENCE

Ericsson Bushnell and Leo Schulz Give
a Splendid Programme in That City
Yesterdays Hartford Courant says:
The recital at Unity hall last evening
was we'll attended for such insufferably
hot weather, and the audience was
greatly delighted with the fine elnging
of Ericsson Bushnell and the artistic
cello playing of Leo Schulz, the two
making up as fine an evening of mu-
steal contrasts and enjoyment as could
possibly be imagined Mr.. Bushnell was
in splendid voice, and his noble treat
ment of the themes he presented won
him the heartiest friendship of his au-
dience which enthusiastically applaud
ed after every song. He opened with
quartet of songs from "Eliland" by
Won Fielitz, new to the concert platform
In this city. They We're given with
splendid effect, particularly the "Res
ignation,' which was sung with deep
sympathy and strength. The stirring
heroic ballads of Danny Deever" and
Schuman's 1.-TWO Grenadiers' were CIV
en- dramatically, the latter being inter-
preted with quite a little more of the
humor than is usual Danny Devee"
was sung with an increasingly breath
less, rapid finish that added to its dra-
matte effect and fairly captivated the
audience OF the quieter melodies
LISTS "Du Dist vie cine 'Blume" and
Schubert's lovely "Du Dist die Rub"
We're given with the tenderest, most de-
lightful expression. Molloy's Rose
Marie and Luther's in Nights Still
Calm" were examples of the broadcast
treatment of the song possible and We're
exquisitely done. Mr.. Bushnell sang as
an encore, with accompaniment the
favorite German drinking song, Down
the Deep Cellar in robust and in
MIGRATING fashion. The great range of
voice, the artistic treatment of theme
and the variety of composition present.
ed mark Mr.. Bushnells work as some
thing quite out of the ordinary and fix
his rank as among the first of Ameri-
cas- baseos. Connecticut should be as
proud of him as a singer as she is of
the splendid services of his father to the
country.
Leo Schulz, the cello player, who
made hosts of friends in the trio con-
certs here recently, added much to the
entertainment by his mastery treat
ment of Bargiels 'Adagio," the delight
full shading of Helms "Serenade," and
in his closing number, the lively Span
ish Dance" by Pepper, the great writer
for the instrument. He has the artistic
Temperament and his marvellous tech
nique leaves nothing to be desired.

PLEASANT BIRTHDAY PARTY
Given in Honor of Little Jessamine
Whites Eighth Birthday

Given in Honor of Little Jessamne
Whites Eighth Birthday.
A pleasant birthday party was held
from $50 to $50 Wednesday evening at
the home of Eugene H. White, No. 214
Crown street, in honor of the eighth
birthday of Mr.. Whites little daughter,
Miss Jessamine White. Sixteen little
girls were present and enjoyed them
selves immensely in games. The first
on the programme was peanut hunt,
for which the first prize was won by
Annie Baldwin. The prize was a Saint
Cecilia picture.
Supper was served and a large birth
day cake occupied a central place on
the table. In the cake was gold ring
set with torquoises. This prize was
drawn by Arabella Horton, daughter of
DR.. Horton. After supper there were
other games, among them a game
known as the heart game, in which the
players, blindfolded, endeavor to stick
an arrow in the center of q large paper
heart. The prize for this game was also
won by Annie Baldwin. There was
also music and dancing after supper.
The parlors Of little Miss Jessamine's
house were beautifully decorated for the
occasion with laurel, ferns, roses, car
nations and daisies.
