also introduces his hero into the antarc-

WONDERFUL I!
Tuesday.

blind Boone, the Pianist, Entertained
Large and Intelligent Audience AT
the Congregational Church Mon
day Evening for two Hours
A large audience was charmed MONDAY
evening ut the Congregational church
with the musical abilities Of Blind Boone.
This ebony hued product Of the south Is
" Nonderflll performer. Unlike Blind Tom'
who created furore years ago, though a
simple. minded fellow, Boone is an intelli-
gent representative of his race and quite
well educated. He is able 10 play any
musical composition on the piano, demon
strating this fact by giving Liszt's Hun
gaIian Rhapsodie No. 9; the Hungarian
Storm" by the same author; Gostschalks
Lost Hope" and Bethoyan's SONATA
Paihetique." His felicity OF execution
was simply astonishing and when he
played difficult piece after hearing Miss
Sade Vischer render it, the audience was
more than enthusiastic. Blind Boone
gave some of his own compositions, the
most wonderfully effective being bis imi-
tstion Of q tornado, the Chickering grand
upon which he played, being stirred as II
into angry wind, rain and thunder by his
mastery hand. The program was varied
by the singing Of plantation songs by
Boone and similar weird compositions by
Miss Stella May. Miss May showed good
sense in confining her selections to this
class Of music, Instead of going Into the
classical. Her rendition Of "Massa's ir
the Cold Cold Groun'," and similar melo
dies was simply irresistible. Boone com
pleted the evenings program by render
ing that grand old production, Marching
through Georgia" The concert was II
all respects happily presented and thor
oughly enjoyed. The officers of ih'
ladies' Benevolent society have the thank
of the public for securing an entertain
ment by such wonderful man.
