Miss Lenore X. Murray the dramatic
reader, will appear at Russell's opera
house, saturday evening next under
the auspices Of the w. II. G. Whef
ever the young lady has appeared, and
she Is now upon the third season, she
has won unqualified and unstinted
praise from the press and from the PEG
pie. She is bright and vivacious, per-
feet in her profession, and captivates
her hearers. Her selections are varied,
including pathetic and humorous, and
In each her audience Is wrapt In the
spirit of the selection. Miss Murray ap
peared ut Griswold last week, and
though we have large number of kind
ly press comments at hand, we judge
that those coming from the fields of her
recent triumph will prove most salts

Miss Murray is young lady of rare
talent and has few superiors In her
art. Her rendition of the "rhe Gladi-
ator" and "Enoch Arden" was simply
superb, and could not be surpassed by
anyone, Her comic pieces were also
well rendered and brought down the
house with applause, In fact all her rec
itations were well received and should
this charming young lady ever return
To GriswolG, she may rest assured that
she will be met with hearty welcome
by our people. -GriSpold Herald.
In tho presence of small company
Miss Murray gave several selections in
Audubon last week, and all who were
present were unanimous In expressing
admiring approval. She possesses q
sweet voice, under complete control,
and her initiative powers are wonder
full, she is an enthusiast and deeply
devoted TO her profession 80 that her
best effort is given every recitation.
Having heard her we heartily recon-
mend the entertainment to our people,
believing that it Is of the most profit
able In Its nature of any that Is afford
cd us. DO nos fail TO hear the charm
ing reader, at Russell's Saturday night.
Admission: children, l5c.; general, 25c;
no reserved seats.
Perhaps the reader of the above no
tice will ask, what Is the Relief Corps
and what need have they of funds. In
answer TO the above we would like To
give in as few words as possible, the
work of the Corps during the year that
is about to close. We have received II
members, have lost three by discharge,
one by transfer and death has invaded
our ranks and claimed one. We have
received Sl3l.50. We realized $500
from the sale Of two quilts. $26.50
from public dinner. Have turned
over to Post $500 and used $500 for
charity including clothing and bedding.
Ninety visits to the sick have been re-
ported. At the time OF Col. Whites
funeral we furnished 30 free dinners for
the family and friends. We are partic-
ularly admonished to remember the
widow and orphan, and the sick and
needy soldiers and their families. We
have purchased an organ which to some
may seem cxtravagant but we find 1t o.
great help In our meetings and camp
fires.
At the close Of the official
leave the Corps In good healthy con-
dition, but we have long, cold winter
before us and the demands for charity
will be great. We therefore ask the pub.
lie to aid IN by coming out to hear Miss
Murray who will not disappoint you.
Mrs. FANNIE TALBOT,
ESTHER BRYAN, President.
Secretary.
