CONCERT OF EXCELLENCE
Was Given at Barre Opera House Last
Evening By New York Musicians

Whether or not il was on account
Of the artists being unknown here
counter-attractions crowded into the
week, insufficient publicity or just
plain indifference on the part of the
public, it is quite certain that these
conditions resulted in the bringing to-
gether of only fair-sized audience of
few hundred last evening to listen
TO the concert given in the opera house
by New York musicians.
The size of the audience did not in
terfere in any way with the carrying
out Of the program and a very credit
able showing was made by each of the
three contributors. Standing out prom
inently on the program was the work
OF Prof Foch Di Leo, composer and pi-
anist of unquestioned ability. In his
several difficult numbers the brilliancy
OF his attack and the execution was
simply astonishing while his power of
expression must have been true inn
preston of the composers intents.
Whether in the simple passages or in
the trick runs or trills Prof. Di Leo
displayed a technique that was con
vincing of his standing as a master in
his art. His was a performance that
every musician would be delighted in
Assisting the pianist was Giuseppi
Baldaccini. baritone. Mr.. Baldaccini
was well liked in his several operatic
contributions, chiefly the aria and pro-
logue from II Pagliacci. Miss Co
moroda, possessed with a clear and full
soprano voice, displaying at times a
surprising volume. sang beautifully. es-
pecialy so in I'll Bacio."

itably done by Miss Elena Barberi Of

Of maniac, the body of Janet Law
renee, l2-year-old school girl, was
found early to-day conceald behind q
log in Kluxen woods near here. Her
throat had been slashed and her heart
pierced.
The child was reported missing yes
terdav afternoon when she failed to
return from the home of a neighbor
Mrs. Joseph Sandt, where she had been
caring for the Sandt children.
At that time the girls younger
brother was sent to find out what
was OBTAINING her. Searching parties
were organized when he reported his
sister had started home several hours
before.
Search for the child's slayer has been
taken up under the personal direction
Of John NJ. Mills, public prosecutor of
Morris county.
Lieutenant w. ]. Ryan of the Maii-
son police declared that the murder
had been preceded by criminal as
sault.
A youth seen lettering about the vi
cinity early in the afternoon is being
sought in the belief that he may shed
light on the identity of the girls as
sailant.
A handkerchief found knotted tight
ly around the girls neck is believed to
have been used to choke little Janet
into silence. None of the residents of
the vicinity heard any outcry.
A peculiar knot, used to bind rose
bushes. and twine, said by the police
to be used only in greenhouses, of
which there are several in the vicinity,
are clues which the murderer left be-
hind him.
The twine was used to tie the little
girls hands behind her after she was
silenced by the handkerchief about hcr
neck before being dragged from the
street into the woods, only hundred
wards from her home in the fashion
able Ridgedale avenue district.
