The Camilla Irrxn Cancert

The large attendance at City Hall last even
ing was gratifying. Our people SO often per-
NIT good thing to pass without recognition
that one never anticipates great houses. Ru.
bernstein played to handful. Di Murska sang
to few. Camilla Urso, however, is known
OF all people, and so all 60 to hear her-which
shows that familiar sign is more attractive
than excellent goods. In this case, though, the
sign is 'sincere"-real Eastlaks pattern-and
the admirable violinist quite deserving the
great reputation she has won.
The programme last evening was happily ar
ranged and displayed to excellent advantage
the striking merits of the principal performer
The first violin solo was Giuseppe Tartini's
'Devirs Sonata composition which was, o
musical legend assures us, dictated BY Old
Nick himself to the artist in a dream How
ever that may be, the breadth and variety of
composition afford Madame Camilla Urso An
excellent opportunity to display her perfect
command of the violin. Its theatrical effects
always produce one good result. They provoke
an encore. In response to that Madame Urso
gave selection rich in pianissimo passages
which served to bring out the delicate and
most pleasing qualities Of her art, for it was
given with deep and tender sentiment. Her
other selections were gavotte and minuet. Of
rather composite style of musical architect
ure (arc hitecture is nothing but frozen music,
says brilliant author) and Paganinis ia
Campanella.''
The support was unexpectedly good. Miss
Ivy Wandesforde is favored with a noticeably
sweet voice, wel-trained, of considerable COM
pass and dramatic quality. 1t was heard to ad-
vantage in the ripping melody and soft tones
of her first song "Hear the Gentle Lark" as
well as in the slender and True, (which an
peals strongly to an audience and was of course
received with warm applause. Mr.. Rudolph
sens strong, dram attic voice, and Mr.. Towers
pleasing tenor gavs especial pleasure in the
rapid movement and taking though rather
mild humor Of "The Muleteers'' The con-
certed pieces were correctly rendered. One of
the most attractive features of the concert was
the piano playing of Mr.. Benno Scherek, who
displayed noticeable breadth of expression
and strength and brilliancy Of touch.

which 1t was stated that "the Chorus Choir,

ton. On Thursday evening last, at regular
meeting of the Chorus Choir, communication
was received from the Y. M. G. A. inviting
them to take part in the coming exercises. Ga
account of the inability of the conductor to at.
tend, it was decided not to sing aud the secre-
tary was Instructed to thank the Y. M G. A.
for their very kind invitation; also to express
their regret at being unable to serve them as
they would gladly have done under other cir
cumstances. Before the response had been re-
ceived from the secretary, however. the pro.
grammes were all struck off announcing the
Choir to take part. Under the circumstances,
whose fault was it that the Choir did not ap-
pear? w. l.. FITCH, Conductor.

Newspaper Reporting.

A newspaper reporter should be a
person Of intellectual training; one not
only intelligent and capable to see and
understand, but honest and conscien-
tious. In reporting the proceedings of
a meeting it is not his business to con-
denim, berate, commend or ignore a
speaker who may be personally offen-
sive, or with whom the paper has a
quarrel. He should possess the talent,
the judgment and the honesty to fairly
state the facts, leaving the criticisms
and conclusions TO others, or letting
his utterances in this respect appear
outside of his report. And right here
we could make some suggestions which
it were well il the folks around the cor
ner would digest. 1t is not the legiti-
mate duty of reporter to make some.
thing readable and spicy at the expense
of truth and fairness. The public de-
pends upon the reporter for facts, hence
they need to be persons of honesty and
training. II is sad to note this degen-
eracy and it is time for reform.
Reporters should not be employed be-
cause they are cheap. nor for their read
iness i'll getting up sensations; but a
standard of intellectual ability and cul-
ture; high degree of honesty and in
tegrity ought To be required, and their
employment based upon these quail
tiles.
