All Arrange Perfected for the
 Most Brilliant Carnival Ever Held by
 This Home and State Organization.
 After many months of preparation and the most diligent work, the Connecticut Music Teachers associations committees have completed all arrangements for the annual convention and musical carnival called the May festival, and to-day musicians from all parts of the state, and artists and delegates from many outside cities will assemble and attend the opening of the three days pro- gramme.
 From a plain huindrum convent on at which papers were read discussing topics of musical interest, this annual convention of the instructors of the Nutmeg state has de veloped into a modern musical festival, full of the best and most new in mus s'cal compo- sitions and talent at which congregate art ists of all kinds and leaders of greater or les fame in the realms of music. Thirteen years ago the first convention of the Con- necticut music teachers took place, and dur ing the past five or six years the excellence of their festivals, the fame of their musi- clans and those who appear before them, have been so great that to-day this state stands among the most important as May festival state.
 It has been hard on this account to keep up the work of surpaSSing each years pro- gramme with the next. but this time the programme committee has been favored by fortune little and rewarded for much hard work by success in preparing list of events more notable than have ever before been prepared. From the beginning to the end the May festival programme is an excellent one.
 To-day it begins First comes the business session and after it the singing of Liszts famous 18th psalm at St. Johns r. E. church. In the evening will be held the promenade concert at the Hyperion, which dances of the spring season. This affair is to be made better than ever this year, and will be attended by many of New Ravens prominent social Lights. The full programme
