Sketch of the Largest Local Musical
Organization.
MANY WORKS PUBLICLY PRESENTED
New Features introduced During
the Present Season.
IT'S MUSICAL DIRECTOR

More attention than usual has been at
tractcd this season to the work of the
Choral Society the largest of Washington's
musical organizations and one of the Oldest.
This is very largely because of the anima-
ton which CharaCterizes all the depart
ments Of its management resulting in
marked Improvement in its concerts and in
great gain in the number of It's support
ers. and consequent financial stability.
Its sustaining membership list. lovers of
music who make fixed subscription of s.,
has now reached nearly so an increase
not far short of 1o0 over last year and 200
over three years ago. Still it seems little
strange that there are not in Washington
as many as 800 people who will pay this
amount each year TO insure the success OF
such a musical organization.
There is marked Improvement also in
the quality Of the voices; the tenor. usually
strengthened and now VieS with the bass
for the distinction of being the best part.
Heretofore the ladies have always had the
best record in performance. but the last
concerts have shown distinct preponder-
ance Of tone on the part of the men, a
record decidedly unique in the history of
such societies.
The society has distinguished itself also
by getting entirely out of debt this year.
1T has during two years past been conduct
ed on a sound financial basis. but had
small funded debt, payable in annual in
stllments. Early this season it paid the
current fnStdllment and two more not We;

debt 1t mas q guaranty fund of about $500,

PERVERsION OF APPETITE,
Often Caused by Disorder of the
Stomach.
From the New York Herald

FROM the New York Herald
There is a very Old story told of hostIer

horse into the belief that split shavinge

the beass finally died as the result of the
diet. The Foley boy, who voluntarily ate
teothptcks for other reasons, was happily
saved from a like fate by an operation
which resulted in the extraction of pound
and a half of wood pulp from his intestines.
As the ordinary boy of eleven is usually
satisfied with everyday food, provided he
gets enough of it, the case from such a
standpoint is worthy of a passing refer
ence.
The habit of chewing and swallowing
WRITINGS and slivers of wood to which he
had been addicted for months was simply
due to perversion of appetite which all
though quite uncommon with male young,
sters is not infrequently seen in the oppo-
site sex OF like tender years. There is In
both instances a marked nervous perversion
of instincts. which in the case of the fe-
males is generally designated as hystertcal,

is VIGOROUSLY true that the disorder in one
shape or the other is very prevalent among
the inmates Of insane asylums. Various
articles, such as chalk. bits OF mortar hair,
cinders, and even forks and spoons are
often surreptitiously swallowed by idiots
and mad people.
With seemingly rational individuals the
origin of the trouble is not infrequently In
the stomach itself, which is often dilated
and disordered in function as to cause
craving for the sense of comfortable disterls
sion, which can only be satisfied by bulky
and indigestible materials. The clay eater
Of the south is peculiarly afflicted in thaf
respect, as was also the old farmer who
preferred corned beef and cabbage tot
breakfast in order that his stomach might
have something to chew on betweso
meals"
