soNcPs COMING ASSURED.
The Famous Italian Tenor, Who Is the Sensation of the Musical Season, Will Certainly Appear in Norwich.

It is pleasing to be able to announce
 that the engagement of S1gnor Afes-
 san1ro Bonci, the diSting guiShed Italian
 tenor. for 8 concert in Slater Memorial
 hall during the coming season is now
 an assured fact. While the Subscrlp-
 tions for this event are not sufficient
 to meet the expense of bringing Bonci
 to Norwich, yet the music-loving pub
 lie has shown such deep interest in
 the project that the promoters felt jus
 tifled in closing a contract Tor con cert, which will be the crowning fea-
 ture in what undoubtedly will be the most brilliant musical season that Norwich has ever experienced It is not the idea of the promoters to ac- cumuiate any profits from these con certs; they simply wish the receipts approximately to equal the expendi- lures, and they feel confident that now that the concert is assured, there will be enough more subscriptions to come somewhere near defraying the eX- penses of this occasion.
 It Is indeed high privilege to be able to hear such a great artist as Eonci under any circumstances, but it is greater privilege to be permitted to hear him in the home city, under conditions so favorable as are offered in the Slater Memorial hall musical course, and Norwich should be justly proud of the fact that it will be one of the few small cities of the country that will be privileged to hear this great artist.
 InE course as HOW 4ITdISc0~ WILL consist of a concert by the F1onza1ey Quartette on December s, and SiSnOr Alessandro Bonci on January 16. Both concerts offer the best to be had in their respective lines. The Flonzaley IS recognized as the finest string quar- tette in the world, and it is generally conceded that Bohci is the greatest of l living tenors. Therefore this series | should appeal to all music lovers, to ! those interested in instrumental music | of the highest standard, well as to l those who are principally interested in <! vocal music.
 4 subscription list has been placed | in the store of George A Davis on | Broadway. This list will remain there | until Wednesday, November 15. All | who subscribe for tickets to one or 1 both concerts on or before November Is will be entitled to the privilege ac- corded to original subscribers, of nav ing a1 opportunity to selact their seats before they go on sale to the public. This should be an incentive for those who have not already subscribed to do SO, before the subscription list is closed DIS it is almost certain that before the dates set for the concerts good seats will be scarce.

is as gripping and thrilling. At every performance the curtain calls pile up on one another until new records are made almost daily. Not only is the play making people talk, but the clever work of the players Is receiving the exceptional amount of prise it so just Iy deserves. And particularly does this apply to Tom Moore and John N- Booth. The tremendous scenes where every resource of their physical and mental beings is called into play, where they rush through a seemingly endless scent at top speed, when the slightest break or hesitation on the part of eith- CT would spoil the scene, has made ev eryone wonder how they can possibly keep it up twice daily for a whole week. The play is wonderful piece of dramatic workmanship, and should not be missed by anyone.
 Next week one of the brightest and wittieSt of the comedies of recent years, "A Woman's Way" will be pre- scented by the company, with Miss Vic toria Montgomery back in her old place of leading woman of the organ ization. Monday night has been seized upon by her hosts of admirers in this city to give her welcome, and already many seats have been sold. New post card souvenirs of Miss Montgomery in two colors will be presented to the lar dies attending both the matinee and night performance Monday, in honor of the occasion. The daily n1atinees will be continued for the balance of the season and reserved seats may al- ways be secured one week in advance.

PICKPOCKETS WORK
ON A CROWDED CAR
Passenger on InteruFban Electric is
Touched for S21 by Two
Young Fellows.

A pair of pickpockets operated sue
cessfuly last evening upon two pas
sengers on a WATERFOWL interurban
car coming into Moline. From one
they secured s21 and from the other
they got 90 cents. The car was due in
Moline at 6:10 and 1t was pretty we'll
crowded. r. E Rosencrantz, who lost
the larger amount, stood upon the rear
platform, and he noticed that he was
unnecessarily jostled by two young
fellows who stood near him, but he
took 1t all in good part and thought it
merely one of the disadvantages of
being in a crowded car. At Twenty
seventh street the two fellows got off
and 1t is thought they boarded a
Third avenue car and came to Rock
Island. They had been gone but a
few minutes when Rosencrantz real
lied he had been robbed and another
passenger made a similar discovery
at about the same time. They com
pared notes and decided that the two
young fellows were the pickpockets.
The police were notified, but no clew
to the thieves Identity was secured

Under the command of Major Sam
uel Hof, acting commandant of Rock
Island arsenal, the detachment fell In
line, and took up the march from this
city to the quarters of the command

emn march was without doubt the
most impressive ever witnessed here,
the detachment of soldiers marching
four abreast in the lead. and followed
by the caisson and members of the
Hobbs family.
MILITARY FUNERAL HELD.
AS the cortege reached the main
gates leading to the arsenal. the
tramp of the soldiers was the only
sound to be heard. The moon had just
risen in the east, and it's soft beams
added to the mournful picturesques
ness of the procession. When the quar-
tiers of the commandant were reached
the detachment was drawn up along
the drive leading to the home, the
caisson was conveyed to the doorway
and the casket was carried into the
home. Military funeral services we're
held this afternoon at $3.50 o'clock.
Trinity cathedral conducted the
service. which was attended by
a large gathering of tri-city friends.
At its conclusion the casket was plac-
ed upon the caisson and in the same
order as last night, the cortege took
up its march to Chippiannock GENE
terry.

partment at the arsenal: Major Sam
