 The one that follows is perhaps one of the most interesting, as it is in this concert that the Peoples Choral union will be heard, together with the kalten- born orchestra.
 One of the numbers on the orchestral programme that will be of special in terest is the Dvorak numbers, two movements from his New World" This, it will be remembered, was writ ten by the Bohemian composer during his sojourn in this country at the time of his association with Mrs. Thursber's conservatory at New York and as tribute to the people of this country It has had one hearing here, and but one, so everybody will be delighted to hear the work again, especially under Mr. Kaltenborn's direction and with so eX- celent an orchestra as is that with which his name is associated,

Stewart, is most active in- stitution. As has already been stated, the company is composed of members from the American School of Opera, which school employs the best teachers, in it's every branch to be had in this country.
 When. the company leaves New Ha- ven it is to play all the coming summer. MT. Stewart has just completed ar engagements for the appearance of two companies from his school, one to play in Boston al the Music hall and the oth- CT at the Providence opera house. Prov idence.
 To the earnest musician the appear ance here of these students can but be full of interest It will be the first time New Haven has ever had an or ganization of this kind in it's theaters, and a more fitting time or place could not we'll have been chosen for the com- ing of such company It is said that MT. Stewart admits only those who are really talented, so that the May Fes- tval audience can be assured that it will hear fresh beautiful voices and singers, free from the disa greeable man nerisms that are rampant to-day on the operatic stage,
 Interest in the festival is growing daily and the tickets are selling as rap idly as even the management could wish. Already it can be said with safe ty that the usual enthusiastic attend ance is assured.
