PROFESSOR GEORGE A. MIETZKE. Profesosr George A. Mietzke of Rock
 vile, who died at the Hartford hospital
 late Tuesday night, was organist It the
 Union Congregational church in that
 place for the past five years, during
 which time he gave the music-lovers

 personal friendship for him. He was
 one of the leading musicians of New
 England and was the aut hor of many compositions. He was native of Ger
 many, where he made his first public

That there should be mistake Of only

King Edward is not subject to the law

none of them shall be overlooked or be
