Attention is called to the advertisement in an
other column, of the Complimentary Concert to
be given to morrow friday Evening. by Mr.. F.
j. LOduin to Madame Selila, which we can assure
our readers will he Musical Feast such as il is
not often our good fortune to attend.
Madame Selika possesses a voice of remarka-
Bile ability, extending from below the staff to
above, thus commanding the exceedingly rare
compass of three Octaves-a power which few
singers in the known world have attained:>She
also possesses great virtuoship. and reflects un-
bounded credit upon her instructors Sig. Bianchi
of the Musical Conservatory of San Francisco,

Such well-knOwn authorities Max and Mau-

cisco, Chicago, Cincinnati and Cleveland papers
wax enthusiastic over her wonder ful powers as
in fact do admiring friends everywhere-for to
hear her but once is to become such.

ous gentry-not to mention all the cultivated
critics and musical composers of Europe have
listened with pleasure and applause-it is pre-
sumable that an audience in Ravenna will be
none the less appreciative. True. it has been
stated ON higher authority than ours, that "a
prophet is not without honor save in his own
country" but we are assured that in this instance
Mr.. Loudin will receive the welcome he deserves
from his old home. We are proud of him that

which were poverty and the prejudice against

to learn of the death OF old friend and neigh
Dor, William Lynn. which occurred at his late
residence. in Kalamazoo county, Michigan,
VIM. Lynn was born in ChenangO County,
New York in the year 1912. and when quite a
small boy, jOnrneyed with his mother to Brim-
field, where he spent his youthful days. In 1888
he was united in marriage with Maria Cady, of
Brimield. The offspring of this union were
seven sons and five daughters. of whom five
sons and one daughter are left to mourn the loss
of a Kind parent. His widow still survives al
though in feeble health. Her hopes are bright.
For forty five years they have trOd the path of
life together. William was kind husband and
a tender parent. His life was sunshilc to the
last. When his time came to go, he was ready
his work was done. On September 10th, 1878,
the family were called around the bed of a dy-
ing husband and parent to bid the long, last
farewell. The funeral took place on the 18th
ut the house of the deceased. in Wakeshma,
Kalamazoo county, Mich. The services were
conducted by Rev. Elder Weasner. A.
