Musical at Mrs. Frick’s 
The last in the series of Friday 
afternoon musicales was held yester- 
day afternoon at “Eaglerock”, Mr. 
and Mrs Henry C. Frick’s delightful 
summer home at Pride’s Crossing. 
The most fashionable gathering of the 
season was out and, despite the in- 
clement tendencies of the weather, 
the event proved the grandest social 
as well as musical success of the 
summer. 
No house on the North Shore is 
better fitted for a musicale such as 
was given yesterday than the Frick 
residence. Many heard the wonderful 
organ in the house for the first time. 
The program started with four 
organ numbers by Wallace Goodrich, 
who put excellent expression in Bach’s 
Prelude in C, Rhapsody on Dredon 
Melodies by Saint-Saens, Study in 
Canon Form by Schumann, and 
Vierne’s Finale. Three songs by 
Edith Chapman-Goold, soprano of a 
New York church, followed. A 
violinist rendered Adagio from Violin 
Concerto by Mendelssohn. A soprano- 
violin-organ number, The Cross by 
Ware, and Sonata Maria by Faure, 
and three American songs by Miss 
Chapman-Goold completed the pro- 
gram. 
Miss McNamara is at her cottage, 
39 School street, Manchester-by-the- 
Sea, for the season, and is prepared 
to do shampooing, marcel waving, and 
manicuring. She has for sale a 
splendid scalp tonic and pomade, and 
also a Russian egg soap. Telephone

Special Town Meeting 
The special town meeting called in 
Manchester last Saturday night to 
take action on the matter of immedi- 
ate relief to the water supply, ended 
without any action being taken, other 
than to have the matter dropped until 
such a time as the special committee 
and the engineer now at work on the 
case shall have made their report. 
The meeting was called to order at 
7.35 by Town Clerk Jewett and on 
motion of F. K. Swett, R. C. Allen 
was nominated moderator by acclam- 
ation. 
M. E. Gorman asked if there was 
any other business to come before the 
meeting other than Art. 2,—addi- 
tional water supply. When informed 
there was not, he moved that all sub- 
ject matter pertaining to additional 
water supply be indefinitely postponed 
to such time as the engineer for the 
town make his report. 
Water Commissioner F. J. Merrill 
stated that the water board had 
called this meeting because they felt 
it to be their duty to lay before the 
town the actual condition and to 
point out the means of relief that is 
available. The estimated cost of lay- 
ing pipes on top of groundand equip- 
ping a temporary pumping plant he 
said would be $3,900 for 6-inch pipe, 
and $5,165 for an 8-inch pipe. 
Albert Cunningham, Austin Mor- 
ley, Charles O. Howe and Samuel 
Knight spoke on the question, and in 
reply to questions by the latter Supt. 
Andrews spoke of the conditions. O. 
T. Roberts also spoke on the matter, 
the opinion expressed by all being to 
the effect that no action should be 
taken by the town just now, awaiting 
the reply of the engineer now at 
work, and that before any emergency 
supply could be obtained the season 
would be overand the fall rains would 
give plenty of water. 
The motion was put and carried 
without a dissenting vote. The meet- 
ing adjourned at 8.20.

for the occasion with a half tone por-
