OLD HOME WEEK.
Observed by Maine. New Hampshire
and Vermont simultaneously.


Maine and New Hampshire have
selected the same week as Vermont for
their Old Home Week celebrations.
Both OF these sister states have
observed with marked success these
reunion festivals in previous years.
Vermonters have the reputation OF
being as patriotic rs the citizens OF
any other state in the Union. The
Inauguration of Old Home Week this
year in Vermont should be met with
an enthusiasm upon the part of
Vermonters at home and abroad that
should result in an observance OF the
event worthy OF Nermonters and
creditable to the state. We should at
least equal our sister states in the
success attending the celebration OF
our first Old Home Week.
Considerable interest in this cele-
bration has already been aroused
among Yermonters residing in other
states. This interest is particularly
marked among members of the
Vermont Association in Boston,
Providence, New York, Brooklyn,
Washington, Buffalo, Chicago. st.
Paul, Minneapolis. San Francisco, and
other cities The officers of the
Vermont Association in Boston are
favorably considering proposition
looking 10 visit to Vermont in n
body during the week of August 10.
The members of the association and
their families number about 400 people.
They contemplate travelling by u
special train through Vermont and by
boat through Lake Champlain the
early part of that week and at the end
of the trip the members will 90 to the
towns where they were born to attend
the local celebrations. Already
several distinguished sons of Vermont
have accepted invitations TO be the
guests of towns OF which they are
natives. Bradford will have the honor
Of entertaining Capt. Charles L. Clark,
L. 5. N, of the Oregon, during Old
Home Week.
The executive committee of Vermont
Old Home Week Association earnestly
suggests that steps be taken at once
for the organization of local Old Home
Week Associations. 1t is also very
desirable that an early canvass be
made in every town where celebra-
ton is to be held for the names and
addresses of former residents. The
invitations to visit Vermont should be
sent out as early as May -, as most
summer vacations are planned as
early as June LIST. The lists OF names
obtained in these local canvasses
should be in the hands OF the state
secretary by the middle of May AT
least 10000 copies of the governors
proclamation, inviting Vermonters
resident in other states to return to
the land OF their nativity Old Home
Week, should be sent out. There
should be at least $4,000 additional
invitations sent by local associations
to former residents.

members of the original 1860 WIDE
Awakes, and was promoted to be a
staff officer in the Lincoln campaign.
Out of this organization grew the
Hartford City Guard and both Hem
ingway and Dickinson were active in
its; formation, the former being elected
as it's first captain. The latter was
made clerk of the company, and after
the war company was organized, with
Hemingway captain, he was promoted
to be third lieutenant of the nome COM
pany In June he was promoted to be
second lieutenant, on the departure OF
Captain c. A. Stillman to the front. In
October he opened a recruiting ONCE

General Dickinson was prominent in
educational matters in Hartford, espe-
cially in the Arsenal school district.
He was chairman of the school COM
mittee there for many years and took
a great interest In the affairs or the
district after he ceased to be officially

Quoted his household.
Since 1869 General Dickinson had been

general. was here and spent the after
noon at his home The only sister of
General Dickinson, Mrs North, of New
Haven, is in Maine and could not be
here at the time of his death.
Last evenings Hartford Times says:
General Dickinson was man or eX-
ceptlonal qualities of head and heart,
winning and retaining friends through
a long period of active business life.
He was generous and liberal in every
sense of that term. His givings were
without stint. There are large num-
bers of men in this city who were the
| beneficiaries of his kindness and
thouehtfulness in seasons of need, the
general giving freely of his means
| toward their relief and comfort The
| life of General Dickinson was an hon
ored one in this community, and will
long be remembered by those who have
| felt it's impulses and inspirations.
| "Besides his daughter, Mrs. Boards
ley, he leaves a sister, Mrs. North,
| widow of John G. North, of New Ha-
ven, and mother of President John G.
North, of the Connecticut Association
of Local Fire Insurance Agents, and a
brother in-law, exMayor A. G. Hen
drick of New Haven. The two men
| served in the same company in the
Twelfth, both being line officers The
| friendship of the old war days between
them has been of the strongest and
most enviable character. General
Dickinson had large circle of friends
| in New Haven as well as in this city,
who will sincerely deplore his loss"

"LUCREzIA BORGIA."
Crowded Attendance at the Hyperion
Last Evening.

Crowded Attendance at the Hyperion
Last Evening.
The fact that the Yale public lectures
are steadily gaining in the popular esti-
nation was disclosed from the crowded
at the recital by George Riddle of Vic
tor Hugo's "Lucrezia Borgia.
On the programmes, Of which there
were not enough to supply the audi
ence, appeared the statement that IN
the beginning Lucrezia Borgia was one
of those successes that unharness the
horses from ar dramatisfs cab" This
assertion, striking as it is, may be open
to some doubt, and could be made
more ruly of Mr.. Riddles per-
Torrance last evening than of the first
staging that the play received. At any
rate, all can agree with the quotation
from George Sand that follows in re-
spect to the merits of the play as well
as of it's presentation, that it "had not
a furrow or a wrinkle" Throughout
the linking and the disentangling of
this marvellous action"-still quoting
from the same writer-Mr. Riddle show
ed the gift of individualizlng his char
acters, and with the positive advantage
that obtains from dispensing with stage
setting he conjured up, directly the
scenes of the tragedy to their climax in
the fate of Lucrezia Borgia and her son.
This final action, sudden and awful In
effect when 1t came, must have required
a concentred skill and power that re-
fleets no mean credit to the abilities of
the impersonator. Certainly Mr.. Riddle
will be remembered from his efforts
last evening.

PARKER'S HORA NOYISSIMA
GOOD 4DYANCE ALREADY MADE
WITH THE WORK.

The Chorus Of the Gounod Society Now
Numbers $50 and More Bnssos, Tenors
the Balance of Tone-No More So
pranos Needed.
The Gounod society held it's regular
weekly rehearsal of the Hora Novissima
in Republican hall last night, with an
attendance Of 260. Mr.. Agramonte put
the singers through hard two hours
drill and expressed himself at the end
as well pleased with the way the work
was going. Although the composition
is one of great difficulty, all are taking
hold with energy and meeting the big
task fairly with study and application.
c. S. DeForest said he had never known
new work to go forward more encour-
agingly.,
There is need, however, to have more
BASES, tenors and contraltos to pre-
serve the balance Of the chorus, as the
one hundred and ten sopranos make
their part rather too prominent. No
more sopranos can be used, but Mr..
Agramonte would be very glad to find
among the applicants next Monday
night at o'clock a good number Of
singers of the right pitch If voice. 1t
has been decided that next Monday
night will be the last that new members
will be admitted for the spring concert.
Among the additions this week which
will be valuable to the Gounod society
is that of almost the whole ST. Paufs
church choir, including Mrs. Nora Rus
sell HaPSrhe.
