sonal and Otherwise.
Go tonight
Everybody helped.
The press did its duty.
1t is long time till next year
1t will do to shake hands over.
1t rose to high tide the first time.
The chorus is as good as the best.
Who said indianapolis had no enthusiasm
From Lehman to Sam Jones What thud.
Indianapolis is getting back all it's old time
sand.
Prof. Barus has covered himself all over with
glory.
The best of the wine was kept till the last of
the feast.
Not thing to mar the success and pleasure of
it all this far.
1t was much like Cincinnati, except better and
bigger, and no beer.
Rev l. T. Holt, of Union City, is attending
the Musical Festival.
Lehman is superb. No wonder the audience
'hollered" itself hoarse.
The matinee this afternoon should be given up
to the children and the ladies'
1t will pay to 60 tonight. There will be a
splendid programme arranged.
Everybody is going to attend the opera next
week. 1t won't do to be out of style.
lnolaDapouS was n uttl6 SLOW IN g6JtlDg
warmed up, but 1t ''got there all the same"
For the frat time during the week there was
profuson Of floral tributes to the performers
The ushers handle the vast audiences in the
most acceptable manner. There is grumbling.
Well. we've had good enough time to stand
little punishment. Let Sam Jones do his worst.
All honor to the memory of Stephen D. Tom
linson. He has built himself the grandest mon
ument in the city.
The magnificent bouquet presented Fri. Leh-
mann last night was from the executive commit
tee of the festival.
Field glasses were brought into use in the
rear of the hall. Ordinary opera-glasses were
not powerful! enough.
After the opera will be long months in which
there will be no such expense for amusements
1t is the thing to go.
1t is pity that Fri Lehman can not remain
to help at the Sam Jones meetings. She would
take the rough edge off.
With the experience gained from this the
first music festival, Indianapolis modestly pro-
poses to Guido the world in that line.
Fri Lille Lehman complimented quite highly
Mrs. Spades aad Miss Lolita Adam as we'll as
several other soloists of the festival
The matinee this afternoon for ladies and
children will begin at o'clock. The admission
will be 25 cents to all parts of the house.
The patronage bestowed is enough to drive the
1t would make him q millionaire in very short
time.
Think of Maplesons chorus. and then of the
one that has done service in this city this week.
Indianapolis girls are pretty as well as good
vocaliSts.
Don't fail to arrange to 60 to the American
Opera next week. 1t is on scale of the same
proportions as has been the grand concerts given
this week.
Among the visitors from outside the city who
were present last night were Judge and Mrs. ID.
p. Baldwin, of Logansporf and Mr.. and Mrs.
James r. Henry. of Gosport
If assurance could be given that the heavenly
choir would be made up of vocalists like Fri.
Lehman there would not be such holding
back from going to that place.
1t should be mentioned that the hots;s did
much III their line to make the music festival
memorable occasion. Their menus were very
elaborate and the bills OF fare OF some of them
were particularly fine. The Denison had two
deserving of notice. One had two small flags
