BEAUTIFUL Muse.

Pipe organ-Iaspsring Melody Pro-
duced by Rev. j. Ill. Molineux.
Christ Church was jammed last night
by an audience comprising the elegance
aud musical taste OF Yankton, to listen
TO the programme rendered by Rev.
John II. Molineux, of Sioux Falls,
upon the pipe organ, assisted by Miss
Kathleen Gilmore, vocalist. This was
practically o demonstration OF the re-
sources OF the Christ church pipe organ,
and brass bands, orohestras and even
blended human voices will have to pre-.
sent music OF more than ordinary quail
ity in the future, if Yankton audiences
applaud.
The pipe organ was first conceived by
human invention in the 18th century,
when it was in its crudity looked upon
es an instrument almost superhumsn
in its powers. Since that time it has
been improved in every part until to-
day, after years of experience with
Yankee ingenuity, it stands at the head
of all wind Instruments, combining, in
itself all the musical resources Of human
skill IN handiwork and execution.
Tones lower, tones higher, tones
grsnder and more subdued, sweeter or
harsher, may be produced by a skillful
playea, and IS Mr. Molineux succeeded
in producing all these effects he is &C.
counted a skillful player. His pro-
gramme last evening included selections
OF ell kinds of music. He played an
thems, and dirges, songs OF mirth and
songe OF sorrow, exact limitations OF
flutes and other instruments, and COM
! bined voices and instruments in or
CELESTIAL harmony which filled the great
building to its nttermost parts.
The mechanism OF the organ permits
the creation OF the greatest contrast in
music and the playsr from a perfect
| thunder of melody changed suddenly
to tones of the very softest kind, pro-
| ducipg upon it's hearers a most wonder
full effect. Every ear was open to catch
| the sounds as they were waited away
from the pipes OF the organ, and the
last number on the programme found
the assembly 10th to depart.
Miss Kathleen Gilmore, instructor
in music in Hope school at Sioux Falls
I sang four selections during the even
ing, exhibiting high ability and oultiva-
sion as a vocalist. Miss Gillmore's ability
| is greatly appreciated in Sioux Falls and
her singing wal fully % we'll appreciated
in Yankton.
This entertainment was attended oy
one OF the largest and most intelligenf
audiences which ever assembled IN
