VIOLIN RECITAL BY
 RAYMOND B. ELDRED.
Rising Young violinist Heard with Much Pleasure-Miss Clark and Miss Eldred Assisted.

There was a large attendance at the violin recital given by Raymond E. Eldred at the Norwich club on Wednesday afternoon. MT. Eldred was assisted by Miss Mabel $. Clark, so prano and by his sister, Miss E. Ca milla Eldred, at the piano. This re- cital intensified the feeling aroused by other musical entertainments given this winter that Norwich is the home of much budding musical talent which will in few years come into wide public recognition.
 MT. Eldred's playing is marked by a rare balance of musical temperament with technical skill which makes his work thoroughly enjoyable He has a sympathetic accompanist in Miss El- dred, who already shows promise of much ability as a pianist. The after noon's programme opened with Wieni- awski's Legende played with much beauty and skill and followed by the equally enjoyable encore number, Dvorak's Humoresque.
 Miss Clark followed with the aria, These Are They, from Gauls Holy City. Miss Clark is gaining in strength and power of musical expression and this was beautifully sung, especially in the higher range.
 This was followed by del Rieger's Happy Song as an encore. MT. Eldred was again heard in two selections, Ca- ruth-Eldred's Nocturne, a manuscript piece principally of his own composi- tion. and Beethoven's Romanza Op. 40, both acceptably rendered.
 Miss Clark gave with much sweet ness, Jean, by Spross. Her other num- Der was Leo Stern's Spring. Mir. El- dred closed with one movement from Grieg's C Minor Sonata, received with appreciation and followed by Schu- mann's beautiful Abendlied as an ex- tra number.
 The two violins used by Mir. Eldred during the afternoon belonged to Archibald Mitchell and were from his collection of choice violins, one of them being a Hieronymous Amati and the other Vuillaume.
 The patronesses for the recital were Mrs. Winslow T. Williams, Mrs. Arch ibald Mitchell, Mrs. Bella P. Learned, Mrs. Martin K. Jensen, Mrs. Henry l.. Reynolds. Miss Caroline Fl. Thompson. Miss Louise c. Howe. Miss Jane F.. Bill, Miss Annie L. Ruggles and Miss Mary G. Osgood.

 Mrs. Fields reported the medal con- tests and complimented the children on their good work.
 The subject for the afternoon was Other Narcotic Poisons. Tobacco in Various Forms.

It also taught the impropriety of filling the air with it's smoke, annoying those who dislike it, and the unfair ness of making the streets and floors unfit for clean. neat people to walk on.
 June g is Flower Mission day throughout the White Ribbon ranks, appointed by the late Frances E. Will lard in honor of Jennie Casseday. the first flower mission superintendent.

Hartford, June 9.-The measure un- der which the salary of the state's at- torney for New London county is to be increased to $3,S00 a year came up again in the senate today and was ta- bled after some discussion because of the opposition to living this increase to Major Hull until the appropria- tions committee has passed on it.
