and his classmate in music under Prof
Sickner, Flora Caswel, must have know
from the hearty applause they received
that they had done well. AS usual Emma
Koehler had selected piece in which
pathos abounded; and, as the latter is hel
forte, she, as usual, did finely. And t.

The entertainment given at the Re
| formed church On last Monday evening
was one of the most enjoyable public per
| formances of the season. Miihaulet's
orchestra never played better. Theil
| ''Zethas" and ''L'Elegane" overtures held
! the audience spell bound. The violin sole
J by Prof. Foster, the cornet solo by Prof
| Alexander and especially the clarionet by
Mr. Arthur Reams. all of Shaws orches-
ira, aud accompanied by it, were very en-
! joyahle MIR r. T. Franks silver guar
tette serenade Return of spring. WAS a
delightful number. Misses Grace Fl. Love
and Gertrude Owen sang very bright and
| pleasing duette entitled ''Too many girls. y
| The Wichita maennerchor. led by Prof.
Geo. w. Young, instructor OF music IN the
! city schools, showed off to advantage fif-
| teen splendidly drilled voice. Their
| German choruses were OF high
order, and greatly appreciated.
The Cradle Song by little Misses Gordon
and Daniels, with tabieau of mother and
grandmother caring for babies, took inn
mensely. as did the tableaux and picture
gallery. Miss Maud English recited
Rock of Ages" in her best style of elocu-
ton and song, which those who have heard
her before will know is saying good deal.
Miss Lillian HamDlin and Mr. Robert
Smythe sang charmingly beautiful duett
which continued applause compelled them
to repeat in part. But Miss HambIin's
solo fairly carried her audience into ether
ial regions and her Lullaby" in response
to an encore was exquisitely soul affect
ing and brought tears to many eyes by its
tenderness Of expression. Misses Mary
Brown, Laura Ness and Baldwin added
much to the orchestra music by their we'll
rendered accomplishments. Every one
seemed to be of the opinion that the home
talent" who gave this entertainment can
not well be excelled in furnishing an even
ing of refined enjoyment. All the num-
bers were heartily applauded. The large
audience room of the church was well
filled and considerable sum realized for
the ladies' carpet fund.
