The programme was lavish IN the variety
of its selections, while the demands of the
audience nearly doubled lis powers. En-
cores were the order of the evening and APP
pause was spontaneous and free. The
choruscs were executed as well as could be
expected under the circumstances, while
no positive failures were made. The Duet
upon the piano by Miss Jennie Kent and
Mr.. Mietzke was brilliant in theme and adj
mirable in execution. 1t called forth long
and loud applause. Miss Ella Earl received
an encore for her piano solo and responded
with another solo even more difficult than
the first Her execution was all that could
be desired and much more than could be
expected from so young n scholar. The
piano solo, "Brightest Eyes" played Ivy
Miss Ella Ryan of Rutland, was not MS
well received as it would have been had il
occurred earlier in the evening, but it was
fine performance and very crcditablc to
her as a pianist
Nine. De Rythcr probably never sang
better than she did in her first solo, and she
was, quite naturally, encored. 70 this she
responded with fine effect, while in the
solo part of "IIear my Prayer she sang
very satisfactorily. Her singing through
out the convention has been one of its most
delightful features.
Mr.. A. J. Phillips of Burlington was
very happy IN his selections for this con
cert, and appeared TO even better advan-
tage than on the preceding evening. He
was enco,td at each appearance, and sang
in splendid voice throughout The eXqui-
site ballad of "NIarguerite" was especially
adapted to his fine voice and quiet style of
singing and the same may be SAID of the
song "Nlany, many years ago" The almost
breathlcss silence that ensued while he sang
the latter was ilattering testimonial 10
the power he has over an audience. We
think that Manchester people will all re-
oicc to hear him again.
Mr.. Geo. Q. Day of Rutland, the humor-
list of the occasion, carried off the rare
honor OF double encore at this concert,
and we think well deserved it. In re-
spouse TO the first call he sang that familiar
song of "Simon the cellarer" which brought
down the house and another was demand
ed. This time he did still better, in sing
ing the very laughable song "Think of
your head in the morning."
Mr.. Frank NJ. Davis of Rutland, did him
self great credit in the baritone solo "a
Fathers love- and received hearty encore.
He responded with "l'he Hour of Sweet
Reposc" with even better effect. His low
tones in this song were greatly admired,
and were greeted with a burst of applause.
The Barker and Tanner trio were also
very successful in winning applause, and
| responded to an encore with the beautiful
trio Sometime. Their singing touched
| a chord in the hearts of those present that
| had seldom vibrated with the same feeling
| of sympathy and satisfaction at other mu-
| steal attempts. 1t is safe to say that the
| glory of the Barker family has not as yet
wholly departed.
| At the close of part |. of the programme

mttee, which consisted of the following
