HARMONY AND MELODY.
The Grand Second and Third con-
certs OF the Music EestiNat.

certs OF the Music Festival.
While the attendance at the two perform
ances Yesterday, of the music festival, was
reasonably fair, it was not in either case
what the management hoped or the Splenuiu
and artistic work merited. At both matinee
and evening concerts empty seatS-
that certainly had been pald TOT
loomed up in dlscouraSilg HUH
bers. making what was IeAiS d
1orre oudience in each case seem small and
insufficient. The members present WoIld
have crowded any other auditorium OF the
nit, ond This fact created surprise that some
other had not been chosen, where the
aeon stic nroperties hid been tried and as
sured.
The audience last night, for the most
mart WAS composed OF the same

night and who, presumably, know
and annreciate good thing when they hear

frinping the central portions, bought by
concerts only. On the whole it was more
appreciative audience than ON the opening
night. and still more clamorous for encores;
and in this connection it may be SAID tna1
Director Thomas is right in that regard, LOT
once the encore doors are open the tide be-
comes uncomfortable.
THE MUSIC.
The s'Stabat Mater Of Rossini, which
took m the first half of the program,
nleased as much as any OratOriO music could
have done. and it has become evident that
such Will not please beyond desire. With
inch. soprano, Campbell, contralto, Winch,
tenor and Heinrich, bass, as good quar-
tet was made up as the city ever heard. and
the chorus support was excellent.
AS the great numbers succeeded
each other they improved in quality
and the satisfaction and appreciation OF the
audience kept pace. The soprano and con-
tralto duet. .'Ques est Homo" was gem,
and drew Jnreserved plaudits. The solo
numbers were not lavishly applauded until
Miss Campbelrs contralJo cavatlna CAME,
Fac ut Portem," which fairly TOOK the
house by storm. The "nf1ainmaIus. ny

and fitly ended the great masterpiece.

been given in either case, but the furious

impoliteness of q hundred auditors scranl-

was an admirable program, HUE 100 du-

only Thomas conld undertake.
FESTIVAL NOTES.
Nine Fursch-Madi appeared IN Won
GerfuIly exquisite toilette. The dress was
beautiful combination of delicate salmon
brocade and rich lace, the salmon forming
the basque and train and the lace the sleeves
and skirt. The front of the skirt was laV-
ishly embroidered and dashes OF black RID
bon appeared among the little bows at the
points. and the same color. showed on one
side of the collar. The neck was cut square
and the Jewel adornmentS were as on Ell
day night.
1t was not exactly the correct thing Tor
members of the chorus, after their WORK was
over. to go climbing noisily about the
galleries. disturbing the audience and occa-
sioning general comment. They were
pretty, but people already kne" tley were
in the hall.
Miss Campbell leaped at once into popu-
laritv. She is an American, OF a mlid
bruno type, and looked lovely in dress OF
The paIest canary satin, V-neck, sleeveless
and full train.
Mr.. Heinrich's work was especially ac-
,eptable last night. In the bass reel
tation, Ella Mater, his voice was exceed
mgly pleasing.
Miss Juch wore blue satin last night
with a cascade of lace on the front. Her
fair skin looked white as milk with that
color.
Miss Campbell resembles the Autographs
of Emma Abbott. 1t will be borne in mind
that the Autographs greatly fiatter Abbott
Yes. it is true that Director Thomas re-
sembleS Aid Eichhorn, as has been re-
marked.
A little more of that popular" music
promised, Mr. Blakely, would not be mis-
take.
