THE BOSTON ORCHESTRA.
Symphonies By Hayda, Nssart ana
Bsethoven Played.

ssSSSs
A trio Of symphonies made UP the pro
eramme for the third evening concert Of
the Boston symphony Orchestra given lac,
night In Carnegie Hall. Haydn. Mozart
and Beethoven were the composers of the
symphonies and their respective works
heard were symphony In d major. No. 2
symphony. fiat major. and symphony
No In c major.
In putting forward these three compo.
sitions DR.. Muck certainly paid q tribute
OF high honor to the trend and taste of
New York city's musical public. Three
classic symphonies, pure and simple, al
one hearing unite in forming q mould In
concert literature chaste indeed in its form,
and one seldom ventured In the giving.
The interest attending their performance
was large. Tho familiar and nattering con-
ditions that prevail At tho concerts given
here by the Bostonian band were again
evidenced In full force.
Perhaps the best general summary of
the evenings proceedings can be made NJ
once through remarks quoted In the pro-
grsmme notes by Philip Hale, which
Hadyn entered In his diary In 1895. after
attending q London concert at which.
among other works Of hts. the second
symphony In d major had had its first
performance. He wrote: THE hail was
filled with picked audience. The whole
company was delighted"
To enter into any detailed mention of
the programme is unnecessary. Its three
numbers are well known to all students
and lovers of symphonic masterpieces.
The discussion Of so-called 'readings'' of
such enterprises is a time worn subject
This state Of affairs will no doubt continue
TO exist Just so long as there are con-
ductors TO infuse their own personal note
OF understanding into the renderinRs of
scores.
Under DR.. Muck's guidance the orches-
tra's playing OF the music presented was
a cause for unceasing admiration. Each
composer was interpreted with "A fine un-
derstandins OF his individual style on the
part OF the oxecutants and the results
without question gave an amplitude Of
beauty in performance difficult TO excel.

DECISION FROM
THE LAW COURT
Motion for New Trial Over-ruled
in the Case of Richard M.
Allen VS.. the Inhabitants of
Lubec in Washington County

The following rescript has just been re-
ceiyed from the law court by Clerk of
Courts Charles w. Jones of Kennebec
county:
WASHINGTON COUNTY-Richard NJ.
Allen VS.. Inhabitants of Lubec Per
Curtain.
In this action plaintiff seeks to recover
Of defendant town, under the provisions
of r. S. C. q. sec. IS, the sum of s219. AZ,
for supplies alleged to have been fur
nished L. ]. Allen and his wife, who, it
it alleged, stood in need of immediate
relief, and chargeable to defendants
The account of plaintiff covers a period
extending from August %, 1912. to June %
1913 The jury found for the plaintiff
for $16s61, and the case is before the
court upon the usual motion for new
trial. The facts are as follows: In June
1912 and prior thereto, Loring J. Allen
and wife were paupers in the town of
Lubec. Mr.. Allen being sick was sent by
the overseers of the poor of Lubec, June
H. 1912. to the Maine General hospital at
Portland for treatment. He returned
August %, 1872, and went directly to his
sons house. the plaintiff, to live where
his wife, Amanda Allen, had been stop
ping while he was away. At the hospi-
tai he was treated for piles and rupture
and for no other trouble. and from in
formation gained from the hospital super
intendent, it was claimed Mr.. Allen came
home a well man and able TO do light
work; hence the evez<sars of the poor
say they gave the matter no further at
tention supposing him to be able to sup
port himself and in no further need of
pauper supplies.
The plaintiff claims, on the contrary.
that Loring ]. Allen was not able to sup
port himself and wife and was in need
of relief and that he, the, plaintiff, a son,
was not able to support him, of which,
he says, he notified the overseers of the
poor of Lubec on the 5th of September,
1872
The defendants contend: 1st. That
Loring J. Allen when he came from the
Maine General hospital on the 22d day
of August, 1912, was able to support him
self and was not in need of pauper sur
plies. I'd. That if he was not able to sup
port himself and stood in need of pau
per supplies, then his son, the plaintiff,
was liable for his support. Sd. That no
notice or request was made to the over
seers of the poor by the plaintiff such as
lis contemplated by r. S. c. q, sec. As.
The presiding justice presented these
issues SO clearly TO the jury that we
quote his charge covering these points:
ITO re-state it: in order for this plaintiff
to recover in this action he must prove
by fair preponderanee of the evidence,
first, that his father was destitute and
in need i'm immediate relief at the time
these supplies were furnished right
straight down through. If he fails in
that you stop right there. If he sue
ceeds in that you move to the next point,

Damaged About $1,000
Partially Insured

The fire department was called out Sun

Beifast, Me-, Sept. 20-(SpeciaD In
the Waldo county probate court YES
terday. Lewis C. Gray of Dixnont
petitioned to Judge James P. Libby
Tor a guardian for his son, Grover c.
Gray of Troy. The petitioner alleged
that his son was of unsound mind and
incompetent to manage his estate and
that he hoped by the appointment of
guardian that he might be able to
save something from the wreck his
son had already made of it. He alleged
that two years ago his son owned a
farm worth $4,000 and had personal
property amounting to some $4,000 or
more. He now claims and had wit
nesses to testify to it, that the son is
practically worthless, that he has
mortgaged his estate and personal
property to their value. The petitioner
was represented by Hon. r. F. Dun
ton of Belfast. On the other hand. the
son, Grover c. Gray, through his at
torncy, Judge Mitchell of Newport,
claims that he is not a person of I'M
sound mind, that he has been unfortu-

teir minds competent to state what
he wanted and did SO. Judge Libby,
after hearing the evidence on both
sides, decided in favor of the petition
er, that a guardian be appointed.
Young Gray appealed and will take
the matter to the supreme judicial
court. He is an unmarried man and

died, had lived with his parents
At a special meeting Of the Belfast
city government held last night, a
proposition was made to the city by
Messrs. Elmer A. Sherman, Orlando
e. Frost and Ralph l.. Cooper, in re-
gard to the purchase of the Mcclellan
estate on upper High street, which
these men purchased from the heirs of
the late Hon. William H. Mcclellan
some months ago. This purchase was
made in order to secure the property
for the city, until such time as an ap-
preparation may be made to buy it.
The proposition last night was accept
ed and an option on the property Civ
en-, the city to pay at present $1,000 to
bind the deal and give the right to go
to WORK on the property to make it
suitably for schoolhouse. This will
