A large and appreciative audience
greeted Miss Irene Werner. of Kansas
City, at Armory Hall last Monday night,
and highly enjoyed the rendition of the
elegant programme prepared for the oc-
casion. The evening entertainment be-
gan with duet sung by Mr.. and Mrs.
c. N. Hovey. with Mrs. E. Van Metre at
the organ. The selection was well given
and met with hearty response.
Miss Werner then recited "The First
Settlers Story" and The Light From
Over the Range" in an excellent man.
ner, both selections being of the most
difficult character.
Miss Eva Bayha and Albert Garfield
sang "Juanita," with guitar accompan.
iment by Mr.. Garfield. Both of them
were in good voice, and were deservedly
encored.
Miss Werner's rendition of Miss Ma
lony on the Chinese Question was al
most perfect, and kept the audience in
the best of numor. She also gave The
Tell-tsle Heart"
Mrs j. E. Campbell sang solo which
delighted all present. She has a good
voice. well under control.
Conner" and The Weeds of the
Army" were Miss Werner's next selec-
tions. The latter was rcpla ced by ken
tucky Philosophy" piece well suited
to the elocutionists talents.
Mrs. C. N. Hovey sang Marguerite"
and captured the audience with her sweet
cultured voice.
The last two numbers on the pro-
gramme were der Penefits of Trinkin,"
and "Ginevrs.' Miss Werner excelled
in these. though they require q wide
range Of talent. 1t was in the latter that
she displayed her natural ability as an
elOcutionist of high order, and in the
former her success as a comedienne.
To say that the audience went home
we'll pleased is expressing it mildly.
