of the barges in very uncomfortable

CRAFTY nearly every shade of musical taste.
Both singers have gained in finish since they
were last heard in Washington and their sing
ing is now wellnigh perfect. Mrs. Henschell 3

deliciously sympathetic quality, which carries
her audience with her and gives the liveliest
satisfaction. Mr.. HenschelFs rich and virile

and in his numbers yesterday he completely
captured his hearers. 1t is rarely that two
people can furnish such complete entertain
ment. for Mr.. Henschell plays his own
and his wife's accompaniments, but no
