SINGER, NEW ID
 CITY, ACCLAIMED
Mrs. E. ]. Carney Warmly Re- ceiYed at Sunday Concert

Introduced by President Herbert S. Woods of the New Britain Musical 1 club as a newcomer to the city, | Mrs. r. J. Carney, soprano, was judged of her capabilities by |. large l audience in the ballroom of the ! Burritt hotel yesterday afternoon, when she contributed to the pro- gram of the monthly free concert of the club.
 The interest that attends the de- but of a new singer was manifest in the reception rendered Mrs. Carney. It was cordial upon her entrance, and verSed to a deluge of handclap- ping at the close of her aria. "Onc Fine Day" from Madame Butter- fly" which she sang in Italian. There was no question about the popular vedict. Such acclaim could qualified musical public which makes or breaks artists regardless of what the music critics say, recog- nizcd in Mrs. Carney new vocalist Of pronounced ability and artistic merit.
 She sang the plaintivc aria in ac- Curatc reflection of its mood, it's striking melodies were given with q voice of vibrant purity. It was a not able debut for this singer new to the city. but of course fine singing is not new 10 Mrs. Carney. She was an accomplished and experienced singer before coming to New Brit ain. She was recalled. but yielded ] bow and q smile instead of an en- core.
 In the aria and in a song by Spross. Miss Jean Nanderslicc was her accompanist. Subsequently, in a fetching Nocturne by John Prin- dlc Scott, she enjoyed the accom- panimcnt of trio composed Of Miss Nanderslice, Marcus H. Fletzcr, violinist, and Richard White, 'ccllist.

 Much interest naturally came to the ensemble of feminine voices which Walter l.. Magnuson had brought together. Its offerings came at the close of the program. The

 The powder was recognizable. It has cyanide base and, like many such powders, forms q deadly gas when wet.
 The Hamptons told the chief of the forenoon game at the club. There was no question but what Mrs. Lus- comb had to leave her home by nine to have reached the club when she did and her time was all accounted for.
 By this time Carl Luscomb, the dead mans brother, had received word and driven over to the house. He came in, heard from Jack Hampton in a few words what had happened and then he turned to Mrs Luscomb.
 You arc as guilty as hell, Letta- you killed Don-I don't know how ] yet, but you killed him. Carl Lus- comb declared. 1 What made him believe. almost at q glance, that Lctta Luscomb had killed her husband:

 how easy it is to LOSE FAT

Everybody knows how excess fat has disappeared in late years. Men and women in every circle prove that figures need not stay abnormal. Youth and beau ty, health and vitality can come back.
 All must realize that, in late years, some new factor is employed. Fewer people now rely on abnormal exercise or dict. Modern science has proved that most fat people suffer from an under-activc gland. Phys- clans now, in treating obesity, seek to correct that deficiency.
 The chief factors arc embodied in Mar mola prescription tablets, prepared by famous laboratory. People have used them for ? years-mlllons of boxes of them. Now in every circle there are slender people who can tell you what they do.
 The method is scientific and well known. Every box of Marmola contains the formula, also the reasons for the good results. No starvation, thous h moderation helps. The purpose is to help out an under-active gland, which should turn food into fuel and energy.
 Go test this wcll-tried method. In a little while results will tell you what Marmola means to you. If you see the excess fat go and new vitality return, go on until the change is completed. Then, in fairness to your friends, tell them, as users have done for so long, Start today.

RANSACK BURGLARS VISIT THREE HOMES.
Houses on Commonwealth Ave.
 and Ellis Street Entered

Three homes were entered Satur- day by ransack burglars who got away without leaving a clue to their identity. and the detective bu- reau today was making investiga- tions with little or nothing on which to work.
 Attorney Martin F. Stempien re- ported his home at 15 Common wealth avenue entered by breaking q cellar window and knocking a key out of the door leading from the cellar. then turning the lock by use of another key. Every window shade in the house was pulled down so that paSsersby would be unable 10 see what was being done inside, and every place where money or valuables might be found was thor oughly searched. So far as was learned the burglars got nothing for their trouble.
 At the home of Mir. and Mrs. William Anderson of 19 Common wealth avenue, next to Attorney Stempien's home, strong box was broken open and ri1ed. Among the loot was a $10 bill which the An dersons valued as a gift from a relative who died recently.
 Sergeant J. C. Stadler. who was detailed 10 investigate q burglary at the home of Thomas J. Davis, 349 Ellis street, found that key had been used to open the door and some ieWelry was taken.

Beethoven piece Mir. Magnuson him.
 out to be a vocal arrangement of a movement from a piano sonata
 while Nevin's "Wynken, Blynker and Nod" was not as lengthy as had been anticipated.
 The ensemble was exceedingly ef- fective and pleased greatly. In the Beethoven piec MT. Magnuson him. self functioned as the accompanist- | displaying his keyboard mastery to good dvantage-while in the other Miss Frances Pomeroy Parker added two more hands ot the piano ac- compartment, as required by the score. Those who participated in the ensemble as singers were Mrs. Howard Ellsworth Horton, in an obligato soprano part, and Mrs. Carney, Mrs. Kathleen Crowley Solomon, Miss Lillian Jo3ephson, Mrs. Edward Schupack, Mrs. Ruth Schade Smedley and Miss Jean Nanderslce. AS all Of these are customarily soloists in their own right the effectiveness of the en- semble can well be imagined.
 Glory for Strings and Piano
 Marcus II. Fleitzcr, violinist, was credited with two appearances, one with Mrs. Caroline Barsch and again as soloist Miss Ethel Prior was their accompanist and q finer task of ac- companying was rarely done.
 The Barsch- -F'leitzer- Prior trio opened the concert with something from Bach that even the Bach ad- mrers do not hear every day-two movements from a concerto for two yiolins and piano. Unfortunately there was only one hearing of this music for the audience, whereas it is music that grows on one," rather than achieving its finest apprecia- ton at once. The flexible violins gave the many Contrapuntal turns of the themes in quite q brilliant fashion, but the important piano part must not be overlooked. The piano. instead of doing the custou- ary by forming a mere harmonic background, took heavy toll of the thematic material, and no listener could overlook the fact that Miss Prior was quite as important in the trio as the violins.
 In his solo group Mir. Fleitzer made exceptionally happy choices. He selected short pieces of charm from the classics. There was a min- uet by Hadyn, for instance, a gavotte by Bach, and q reverie by Nieuxtemps. All had the tang or novelties. MT. lleitzer rarely play cd to better advantage He showed a most happy appreciation of the beauties of a fine sustained tone III the Vieuxtemp composition, which by the way was enhanced by florid accompaniment that was q delight to Miss Prior. In this MT. Flcitzer can be credited with con- tributing one of the most attractive solos of his long and honorabl career as a violinist in this city. The Hadyn and Bach solos, more rapid in tempo, gave abundant opportuni- ties for wooing audience approval. Altogether. it was pleasant after noon for the Niolinist who, in fine form. added mcasurably 10 his reputation.
 The concert was one of the short est of the series. It lasted only one hour. much 10 the surprise of the program committee. It started promptly on time and there Wore no delays at all between numbers. President Woods, as master of ccre- monies, keeps things moving in most admirable fnshion.-G.H.

There is d colony half a mile out of some thirty-tlve or so homes of fairly wealthy peo- pie and during the summer these people spend much of the time at this club.
 Letta Luscomb played in q mixed foursome with Barry Yates against Dolly Hampton and Dolly's brother, Jack.
 About D. m. they had luncheon on the terrace.
 Few asked about Don Luscomb because it was fairly well known that tho Luscombs weren't hitting it off very well, On this day, however, old Major Futile. who was never diplomatic. did ask about him.
 "Oh, Don was messing around with his stamps" Mrs. Luscomb an- swersd. 'I told him some fresh air would do him more good, but he thinks more of his old postage stamps than anything else"
 Dolly Hampton drove away with the car and Mrs. Luscomb took Jack Hampton, Dolly's brother, home in her car.
 Mrs. Luscomb drove on alone to her home. It must have been 20 minutes later that Lctta. terribly asitated, telephoned Jack Hampton.
 Get the police, Jack" she said Be as quiet as you can about it Don has committed suicidc"
 "Dolly's back, I'll send her over" he said. Dolly Hampton walked over while her brother drove to the Vale with a doctor and the local chief of police.

heirs IN the Mary K%ingsbury FOrto
viii, which donated q small fortune
10 the Catholic church, was sus-
tanned IN the civil district court

The motion was sustained upon
the ground that the appeal bond
Of the heirs from the probate court
was invalid. The interests Of the
church were represented by Hall
and Cox Of Brownsville and Tarle-
ton and Lowe of Corpus Christi.
Mrs. Forto. who died here about a
year ago, left almost ali OF her
property worth some $4,000 to the
Catholic church for the education
Of young men TO the priesthood.
The will was contested by the heirs
