Davis to Sneak.

John w. Davis, solicitor general Of
the United States, has been engaged
to make q Lincoln day address, Feb
ruary ~, in Springfield, Ill. The Il
linois State Journal published there
quotes W. A.. Northcott, of that city,
as follows in connection with the Da-
Wis engagement:
W. A. Northcott said that the an
nouncement of the Honorable John

cences of the past. Fifty-five years
ago, his father, who afterward be-
came General r. S, Northcott, went
from Tennessee to West Virginia and
served in the Union army. The first
house they lived in at Clarksburg was
the one in which Stonewall Jackson
was born, and the nearest neighbor
was R. Davis, great uncle of the
speaker. While Mr.. Northcott's
family lived in the Stonewall jack
son house, General Jackson himsei.
achieved his great fame In the bat
tle6eld.
DR.. c. M. Bowcock, of Springfield,
lived in the same house with his faith
er prior to General Northcott's re-
moval there. The Bowcock family
came from the Shenandoah Valley OF
Virginia, and the father was the fam
lily physician of the Northcott family.
At the time Of the war, the solicitors
father, the Honorable John j.. Davis,
was a rising young lawyer who at
terward became one of the most
prominent lawyers In West Virginia.
and later represented his district In
Congress. The mother Of the speak,
or, Miss Kennedy was q very talented
and cultured school teacher from
Baltimore, Nd, and the speaker was
born about forty-four years ago. Mt

Brilliant Recital.

One OF the most brilliant artlsts
recitals ever given under the auspices
of the Marcato Music Club was held
Thursday evening in the auditorium
Of the Masonic temple when Frederick
Morley, the young Australian pianist,
appeared with Charles C. Washburn,
baritone.
Mr.. Morley is a pianist Of brllllance
and power, and these important quail
tiles were displayed in a highly salts
factory manner. He captured his hear
ers with the first tones Of the opening
number OF the program, "Bourse
Gavotte," by Back-Saint Saens, until
the closing of his brilliant selections.
The qiuet dignity Of his manner Is
quito in keeping with the noble style
of his interpretations. The velvety
touch Of his technically perfect per-
formances will long be remembered
by the appreciative music loving au-
dicnco who heard this gifted musician
Thursday evening.
The strongest impression was made
by the twelve etudes Of Chopin, Opus
25, beside other words Of Mendelssohn,
List, Beethoven. Ramean, Gluck and
Leschetizky. ID,
Mr.. W'ashburn, baritone, was In
splendid voice and his singing showed
the thorough artist. His songs were
given a beautiful Interpretation and
the smoothness and richness Of his
voice were particularly noticeable in
"Mammy's Lullaby" by Homer and
Elaboration by Cook.
Mr.. Washburn has achieved a ma
tional reputation by his beautiful in
depreciation OF child songs. His depth
Of feeling and exquisite Interpretation
given to the simplest numbers Is al
ways sure to strike a sympathetic and
responsive chord. The most effective
number was "Uncle Rome" When he
finished this there was many a moist
eyelash and many a q~uivering lip
among the charmed audience who
seemed %spellbound by his sympathetic
and responsive chords Of melody and
song. .,r
The Marcato Club is, indeed. to be
congratulated on its selection OF two
such eminent artists. The splendid
grand piano sent by the Steift Piano
Company was received with admiration
and appreciation by Mr.. Morley and
Mr.. Washburn.

Judge Shea to Decline Probate. Renom
 ination.

Much interest is being centered around the coming probate convention for the district of Windham which is to be held in Windham Center next Tuesday evening at o'clock. As Judge James A. Shea, the present oc- cupant of the office of judge of probate, will be unable to accept the nomina- ton at the convention owing to i'll health. It is thought that if Judge Shea would accept the nomination it would come to him unanimously. Two well known local men have been mem toned for the office and it is likely that one of these two men will land the nomination, although there is a ru- nor of a dark horse in the race and it is expected he will make a strong run for a place on the ticket. The two men mentioned are Alben M. Potvin, the present clerk of the probate court, and Charles A. Capen. assistant clerk of the superior court of this county. Both of these men are well known and would make strong candidates for their party.
