and finish and deserves credit for her untir-
ing application.
The ice of Miss Mai Forbes, Of Elm
Grove, W. Va, has that vibrant, singing
tone that enables the nearer to catch every
syllable and every information. Her rendi-
ton of The poem was intelligent, and the
scene was
PORTRAYED WITH 4 yivIDNEsS
that held her audience spell.bound until

OF Music in graceful and easy style.
With more nerve and a careful study she

Grove. W. Va, read the poem Zits,
so full Of graceful imagery and beautiful
descriptions for which the authorizes is re-
msrksble.
Tie touching li,tly melody of Moore's

has been learning this instrument, and
with increased application bids fair to
make
4 BRILLIANT PERFORMER.
An original composition by Miss Fay
Collins, of PennSboro, W. Va, was read
By herself. The essay, or, as the young
lady modestly styles it, My Impressions Of
Tennyson," gave evidence Of the thorough
and careful study given to literature at
the Mount. The comparison between the
treatment Of the subject by Tennyson and
Lowell was well drawn, and from the quo
ts,ions given aud the reflections made By
the writer, the youngest child could COM
prehend the legend
Miss Mary Donohce Of Grafton, W. Va
sang Abrs Ave Maria with finish and
taste. This young lady shows marked i'm
