HEARING TONIGHT.
ON WIDENING OF EDGEWOOD
 AVENUE.

WestvilIe People Very Anxious Regard-
 ing It and VIII Attend Meeting In q
 B0dy---Members of West Side Associ-
 atiOn Also Interested and VIII be
 Present
 Considerable interest is being mani fested among the Westville people in regard to the proposed widening of Edgewood avenue above the West river bridge, and it is certain that when the hearing in regard to the matter is held at city hall this evening there will be large number of Westville residents to favor the improvement,
 Tne plan provides for the widening of the street and the making of a park through the center, just as it is below the bridge, which place since the wid- ening and making of the park has be- come one of the prettiest and most pop ular residential portions of the city.
 The change will mean a great deal to Westville, for it will open 1t up from arother quarter.
 To the west and south of this portion of Edgewood avenue there lies a level district that if built up will make one of the most beautiful spots of the city. West Rock is in sight in the distance, and from the eminence behind this property, Long Island sound is plainly discemable. The woods are near and the cars go rigsat through Edgewood avenue.
 The entrance to Westville now by Whalley avenue gives the village a ''black eye" it is so unprepossessing and the nice part of the village is being built up to the southwest, just where ar attractive entrance would prove of lasting value.
 The citizens are determined to do all possible to push the matter through and have the avenue widened
 It was originally planned to have the street widened as far as Forest street. This would entail cutting through some of Che property of Donald G. Mitchell, and it is understood that the original plan was dropped through his objection.
 Members of the West End association have stated their intention of attending ing a, body the hearing before the com mittee on streets.
 Tais West End society has about 100 members, all residents and property owners on or in the vicinity of Edge wood avenue, and while they have long attempted to have this spot widened, they have never appeared before the committee as a body before.

Josef Lhevinne, Piano soloist.

Josef Lhevinne, the piano soloist for the coming concert of the New York Symphony orchestra, which will be held in Woolsey hall on Wednesday evening, March 21, is heralded as the successor of the great Anton Rubinstein. Not long ago an attempt was made to in troduce to the public a new Rubinstein, but although the young man was a player of unusual ability, the genius of the original Rubinstein was not found in him. When Lhevinne made his ap- pearance in New York and played with such consummate mastery the critics said with one accord: Here is the suc- cessor of Rubinstein in very truth. :" Those who had the good fortune to hear Anton Rubinstein in his rare visits to this country when he was in the height of his fame, and who have heard this young Russian giant of the piano, say there is very strong resemblance be- tween the playing of the two men. Lhev.nne has the leonine characteris- tics which distinguished the master and which entered so largely into his per- formances.
 A writer in the Musical Courier, speaking of his New York appearance, says: "Lhevinne has spirited deliv- cry, backed by solid technical attain |ments, a beautiful tone, large in volume and infinite in dynamic and color val riety, and last, but most important of all, he is possessed of manly, convinc- ing sentiment, without any traces or pose of affectation."
 Another writer, MT. Krehbiel, of the Tribune, who is notoriously severe on the newcomers, said of this same per- formance: He played the Rubinstein concerto with great brilliancy, yet with a dignified and intelligent purpose, and in the slow movement got everything possible out of 1t in the way of express sion. Here his large singing tone awak- ened the instructed among his audience that they were in the presence of an artist who was not only a virtuoso with an amazing skill in octave playing es- pecially, but also something more. When he had done with the concerto his conquest of the audience was com plete, and he was many times recalled x
 Lhevinne will play the Rubinstein concerto here next Wednesday night, and people who enjoy the greatest in piano music will have rare treat. Walter Damrosch will conduct the or chestra.
 The concert, which is being given for the benefit of the Yale infirmary, is un- der the direction of Everard Thompson, one of the editors of the Yale Alumni Weekly.
