It is conceded by all who nave heard
them that Miss Eva Allen and Miss Rose
Kellogg of the Tivoli are the finest singers
upon the stage in Butte. Miss Kellogg has
a magnificent voice of great compass and
power, clear, pure and sweet which is under
control. While excelling in CLASH
cal music her ballad singing is charming
and brings to the mind Of the listener the
memories OF ''auld lang syne." Miss Kel-
logg adds greatly to the attractions of the
Tivoli. Miss Eva Allen has q fine and most
attractive stage presence. and possessing a
full round voice as musical and sweet as an
Eohan harp it is a real pleasure to listen
to her. She is at home in all those beauti-
full melodies which appeal to the better,
and loftier sentiments of the heart and
none hear her who do not reluctantly |
the room. Miss Allen and Miss Kel-
logg are beautiful singers in any country.
