An unusually select audience assem-
bled at Flreman's Hall last evening to
witness the elocutionary entertainment
by Miss Lottie Tillotson under the
direction Of Grace Episcopal church of
this city. As an elocutionist Miss
Iillotson fully maintained her reputa-
ton of being second to none IN the
country, and her performance last
night was highly appreciated. Famous
actors and actresses seldom assume
more than role: that is. what ever pro.
minence they attain usually is attained
by strict attention to one branch Of the
dramatic art and thus it will readily be
seen that the ability to successfully
assume several different roles-the
tragic, pathetic. comic. sentimental,
necessitating Is many different tones
Of voice, which also frequently requires
musical ability either vocal or instru.
mental or both, is . rare accomplish.
ment and must rather be natural than
acquired; and this is doubtless the
reason why there are so few really good
elocutionlsts. That Miss Tillotson is .
born elocutionist, ell who had the
pleasure Of listening TO her last evening
will teshfy.-Aadison Daily Leader.
