COME TO THE CONCfERT.
The program is out, the tickets are for
sale, the date is the 15th. Say not in
your hearts and minds, good people, "It
is planting time," or "We are house
cleaning." The choral concert ia only
once in the year, It means no little work
and enthusiasm on the part of those who
give it, and It depends upon the public at
large for its final success.
It is not a money making business.
Each singer and musician pays for his
own music, and gives his time, and gets
more than the worth of all the expense
and effort in the culture of the rehearsals
and the satisfaction of the great event
which follows. The money received, will
go back to the public in the form of edu
cational benefits for the children. We do
not appeal to your pockets, but to your
appreciation of our efforts. Is it not for
your Interest to encourage such enter
prises in your community? Dan to go
and enjoy It, I say. Save yourself for
the occasion. The planting and the
bouse cleaning can wait, and will be bet
ter done perhaps, and you will be happi
er all the year because you' went. Go
prepared to listen.
In order to enjoy music one needs to
know what it Is about. The grand office
of music is the expression of thought and
emotion. The first thing then is to un
derstand the subject of the selection, and
the next thing Is to interpret the mean
ing of the cooiooser.
The first chorus is a spring song :
"Awake I Awake) lor the Spring has come,
Lilt up your voices In Joy,
Kalae loud your souk, 1m- life Is young
And the birds with the blossoms toy'
"The Bridal Chorus" is from "The
Rose Maiden." It Is a serenade to the
bride-elect:
" Tls thy wedding morning.
Shining in the ekitis.
Bridal bells are ringing
Bridal Bonus arise.1'
"The Damascus Triumphal March" is
from the oratorio of Naaman. Benhadad
was the King of Syria and Naaman, the
leper, was hi great general, by whom he
conquered his oppressors. We sing of
Naaman ;
"With sheathed swords and bows unstrung.
And spears and stdelds with garlands hung,
Our mighty men of valor come-"
"The Chorus of i'ilgritns" from Wag
ner's Tannhauser, means the joy and
peace of the return of the' penitent and
forgiven soul to God. O. O. Wright.

young foals. At the head of this hofse
family is the well known stallion, Pueb
lo, 410'J. Pueblo is a grandson of old
Hambletonian, being sired by Bona Fide,
720. Pueblo was bought seven years ago i
by Mr Peck of I. V. Baker of Comstock,
N. Y. He is a medium colored bay, of
splendid size and form. The dam of Pu
eblo was Bertha, by Ashland's Patchen,
by Ashland, by Mambrino Chief. Pueb
lo has got some fast colts. Brown Dick,
owned by I. B. Harris, with a record of
'50, and who trotted a mile in Danbury
in '37. He is also the sire of Hazel, own
ed by Mr Peck, who covered a quarter in
40 seconds. Mr Lynch of Sandy Hook
owns one of Pueblo's colts, now being
trained by Capewell of Woodbury. H.
B. Coger has two colts by Pueblo and he
considers them very promising. One of
Pueblo's colts sold for $350, recently. In
fact, there are a great many of Pueblo's
colts owned in Newtown and vicinity.
Pueblo is a horse possessing ambition,
which is a quality Mr Peck claims a
horse cannot have too much of. Pueblo
is exceedingly clever in disposition.
"What Is the use," said Mr Peck, "in
breeding to a horse with a record of 2.10,
when perhaps he does not produce fast
colts?" Pueblo has bred some fast, colts,
and size and style is in bis favor. Mr
Peck also owns a very handsome four-year-old-gelding,
Bonnie Laddie. Hazel, a
promising five-year-old mare, is now be
ing trained by Lewis of Bridgeport. An
other very handsome mare he calls Fan
cy. She was sired by Foxwood. His
favorite mare is called Gypsy, the dam
of Brown Dick and Hazel. Mr Peck has
an offer of $100 for a foal from this
mare. Another mare, Gold Dust, has
produced some valuable colts. Mr Peck
takes great interest in his horses, but has
especial pride in the ownership of Pueb
lo, as he considers him second to none in
this section, as the producer of stylish
and fast colts. -
TEE GOVERNOR WILL COME.
This is his native town. Gov Morris
will honor us with bis presence on the
occasion of our Fourth of July celebra
tion. Let all the people rise up as one
man and delight to honor the Chief Ex

sponse to an invitation sent him through
Frederick Chambers, His Excellency re
sponds; "It will give me pleasure to be
with you on that occasion, and unless
some business of a public nature inter
feres I will endeavor tojdo so." The var
ious organizations In the town have re
sponded cheerfully to the call for repre
sentatives to meet with the general com
mittee, which will come together as soon
as all have had time to consider the mat
ter. Meanwhile let us all talk it up. Let
the school teachers instruct the pupils in
the history of the occasion ; let the par
ents awaken interest in the name of pat
riotism ; let everybody plan to be there.

GETTING A CHUSCH HOME.
Next to winning souls for God is the
work of building houses for God. "The
instinct of construction" everywhere
marks the New Englander; this gave the
log meeting house to the little band at
Plymouth, and thi? spirit has character
ized the descendants of the Puritans as
they have settled through the land. -The
Congregational Church Building Society
is literally a "home" missionary society,
for It provides homes for both churches
and ministers, A houseless orzanization
is an unsecured Investment and cannot
long command interest or respect. "A
church without a meeting-house is an egg
without a shell," doomed to an early
death. The work, then, of the Church
Building Society is an important one in
the religious enterprise of this country ;
what this society stands for and what it
is endeavoring to do, will form the eub
ject of the next missionary meeting at
the congregational church, one week
from Sunday evening, on May 20, at 7.30
o'clocK. These meetings have proved
too lnterestirg for it to be necessary to
urge attendance. All who have at heart

PRINCE ALCYOXICM.
Prince Alcyouiuui, 10,000, will make
his first season, this year, at the stables
of the American House at BrooKneld
He is a stallion tlm has high breeding
and merit on his side, and will be a val
uable horse to breed to. J. l. James,
the proprietor of Prince Aleyoniutn,
bought him when he was a weanling colt
of the Patrons Stock f arm Co., or oou
verneur, N. Y., in 1S91. - He is indeed a
beautiful coir, so visitors declare. Coal
black in color, and just as handsome as
he can be. He has a tine bead and neck,
good legs and well proportioned body.
Alcyonium, his sire, after a heavy stud
season, last yearbook a record of 2.241-2,
with a very little handling. Aleyoniutn
is a young horse, and while his colts are
not old enough to be in the list, they are
very promising indeed. Alcyone, 732,
with a record of 2.27, the sire of Alcyon
ium, died at the age of 10 years, has now
to represent him in the '30 list 41 trotters
and pacers, with records of 2.30 and bet
ter. Alcyone- was a full brother of the
great Alcantara. On the dam's side, Blitz
was thi d-m of Prince Aicyonium, and
sve was by Hambletonian Prince, SIS,
who was a sire of a number in the 30 list.
He was got by old Volunteer. The dam
of Hambletonian Prince was by Ameri
can Star. The grand dam of Prince Al
cyonium was Dolly Varden, who was
sire d by Hinsdale Horse, who hs sever
al representatives in the list. By look
ing at the extended pedigree of Prince
Alcyonium we find that he traces back to
Mambrino Chief, who had the distinction
of being the greatest brood-mare sire.
Also he is backed up oa the dam side by
such thoroughbred blood as Bioucher,
whose blood figures in some of our most
gamey race horses. The breeders of this
section can congratulate themselves on
having an opportunity , to breed
to a . horse that not only is bred
in the best blood Tn3-, but whose indi
viduality Is equal to ny. -
