his wife, according to an alleged note written by Jackson. and now in possession of the state. In the four lines of the note. according to the state. is believed to be the mo- tive for the staying of the county detective. The note read:
 "Willimantic. Jan. -. 1929. MT. T. R. Rice:
 Mrs. Jackson has been given notice twice to keep away from your place on Brown avenue. If she does not, shall start action in the superior court. If you wish to wreck her and Juanita in Will limantic. keep on.
 (Signed) w. F. Jackson"
 The note was given out after a conference between States Attor- ney Howard c. Bradford and County Detective Edward J. Kick ey. They told newspapermen that the state has had the note in it's possession since the nirht Jackson was murdered. It was found in the pocket of his coat. The note, ac- cording to Coroner Arthur c. Bill of Danielson. was not in an enve- iope and was presumably written by the slain man with the intention of either giving it to Rice or to be mailed.
 The state has guarded the finding of this note so zealously that not even hint of it's being found has been made public. The making public of the contents of it was the climax in the developments in the case, after defense attorneys had secured mandatory injunction from Judge Edward Yeomans 'n superior court to secure the con- tents of the two notes left by Mrs. Gertrude T. Jackson when she com mittcd suicide.

MusicaIly and act ually, the con- iuctor is no Lightweight. Long ago is tho only conductor it ever had and the only one it ever needs. If things do not go 100 per cent per feet he calls an extra rehearsal. By the time the society makes a public appearance fl is loo per cent perfect more or less. At least that is the undertaking aim of the conductor.
 Perfection the Aim
 The gentleman called special re- htarsal Of the choral society Mon day evening. There will be another rehearsal Wednesday evening. And at 1o noon on Sunday. April 7, there will be a final rehearsal with an or chosira approaching symphonic pro- portions. Then the great choral body
 .this year 150 strong-Will have a short time for lunch and change from Sunday meeting clothes to concert clothes. and then the big show will start in the Strand the atcr.
 At the last rehearsal. MT. Laubin SO vigorously piled his stick" as he fondly terms it, that it slipped from his hand. Gyrated q Ia an airplanc, and fell 10 the floor. Picking it up. h" remarked:
 "Wcll. that's not so bad. But some ;,, l., ( my friends from New Britain were present. that happened; only the stick won't up in the air. But that tim" l just caught it when it came down and kept right on beating | time"
 cf coursc. this caused laugh The choral society gets lots of fun out of it's music study. The conduc- tor knows tho value of a good joke while the tenors are resting between their high notes.
 "lauSI, That on" \ fcW weeks ago. when the sing CTS were not as expert with King Olaf" as they are now. the sopra n os were having trouble in meeting the right pitch. several fries were made at it. but the underlying changes of modernistic harmony seemed 10 un- balance them.
 That reminds me-"rcmarkc cd Mr. Iaubin. "Once there was a German vocal teached who was try ing 10 get a woman pupil to sing a song properly. This woman sim ply couldn't sing on key; that is to say. she just naturally sang off key. That sometimes is a terrible failing. Well. finally the teacher gave up in disgust.
 "Woman.' he said, it makes no difference if play on the black keys or play on the white keys. When ] do either you sing between the cracks.
 That one broke up the rehearsal for | few minutes. After that the sopranos were good.
 Started Career Here
 Mr. l.aubn formerly was a New Britain orGanist. If was this city, in fact. which gave him his first op- portunity as a musician in his young days. Later he moved 10 Hartford. He has become one Of the most successful choral conductors in New England. The Wesleyan chous, which ne has coached, won national honors among college glee clubs two years in succession.
 When the Choral society gives King Dlaf' one of tn. features Of the performance is certain to be the brilliant conducting of Mir. Laubin.
