AN OPERATE CONCERT.
An Enjoyable Program Enectuall!
Performed by Prof. Mafna's Pupils.

An Enjoyable Program Enectually
Performed by Prof. Mafna's Pupils.
That the concert by the pupils of Prof.
Mama was an event of peculiar interest
to Washington's musical culture was evil
denced by the size and character Of the
audience which gathered in the Universal
ist Church last night. The program showed
at glance that the younger singers
were to be subjected to an unsparing
test The selections were from works
which have not only the admiration. but
the affectionate interest. of the music-lov-
ing world, gems from such operas as
''Traviata," Faust Martha" Barber
Of Seville" "n Trovatore," "Otello" and
the more modern but familiar ''Cavalleria
Rusticana-" Not only were the younger
singers shown in these works, which could
not fail to instantly suggest comparison,
but they sang with artists of professional
Paulina Montegriffo- Mama Mr. ]. Os-
borne Clemson displayed a good baritone
voice with skill and intelligence, as the
opening feature of the program. A duet by
Signor Mama and Miss Mary McCulloch
reflected credit on both preceptor and pupil.
An act Of Faust arranged as a recital
followed. 1t was surprisingly effective
performance, one which was gratifyingly
deficient in amateurishness Montegriffo
sang the role Of Faust, and Mime. Mama
that of Martha H. G.. Meem was Mephisto,
ana MISS Mary Helen Howe presented the
beautiful though difficult music which falls
to the share of Marguerite. The part of
Siebel was to have been sung by Miss
Mailhouse, but she was suffering with such
severe cold that she could not, In justice
to herself, go on with II, and Nine. Mama
sang the Flower Song" Miss Howe sang
with a purity of tone and certainty Of
technique which occasioned some surprise
over the fact that she had not before this
been more widely heard from as a singer
As she came before the public last night
she was realization of care bestowed in
the past, as well most gratifying
promise for the future. 1t was but a mo-
ment after she began that her music dis
placed her surroundings In her mind and
then the slight nervousness, inevitable
under the circumstances, disappeared
The Spinning Song and the Jewel Song
| were both rendered with confidence and
spirit Mr.. Meem gave an exceedingly good
performance as the satanic contingent
displaying a voice of natural excellence
| under good control. Mrs. John Seager sang
two arias in beautiful manner, adding
the charm of personality to artistic ac-
complishmeEts. In the act from ''Il
Trovatore' Miss Mamie Donnelly sang the
part of Leonora with graceful efficiency
Signor Mama in his singing of the part
OF the Count di Luna brought back pleas
ant memories of his operate work. A
number of distinguished people were pres

A CALIFORNIA BIG TREE.
Section of One of the Giants Now in
WashfugtOu.

One Of the latest and most interesting
acquisitions of the Agricultural Department
Is a section of one of the far-famed giant
trees of California twenty three feet in
diameter, one and half in circumference,
and thirty feet in height. This tree, which
is familiar to all worlds fair visitors, being,
as 1t was. in the government building, has
been recently erected in the southeastern
part of the agricultural grounds.
In order to be transported from its
place OF growth to the railway sta
ton. this tree had to be sawn in sections,
and each section hauled sixty miles by a
team of mules; besides this, the estimated
expense to the government for it's trans
portation and reconstruction is $4,000. At
present, however. 1t is not entirely finished.
IT will be divided into an upper and lower
noor; winding stairway and glass roof
Will be added, and upon completion, 1t will
rank well among the many attractions of
Washington.
Marfposa county, California. from which
this tree came, contains 1874 trees similar in
nature to the one on exhibition but vary
ing In height and general dimensions. Five
or SIX other collections of them have been
FOUND, one in Tuolumne and one or two In
Tulare county. In all these groves there
are many trees from 275 to 316 feet high,
from 20 to "a feet in diameter, and of ex-
ceedingiy graceful proportions. Some of
the largest that have been felled indicate
an age of from 1000 to $500 wears The

FRED. DOUGLASS SPEAKS.
A Plea for Fair Treatment for the
COlOred Race.

Mr.. Frederick Douglass lectured last night
at Metropolitan A. M. e. Church on the
subject Of "Self-made Men," The proceeds
were for the benefit of the Colored Young
Mems Christian Association. A large au-
dience was present, and many prominent
people of both races were there. Justice
Harlan introduced the speaker. Mr.. Doug
lass dwelt upon the fact that nature re-
vealed itself, and religion, science and
literature addressed themselves to the HUI
man race and not to special parts Of 1t.
The lecturer made an excellent plea for
fair treatment for the negro. We should
lend hand to help raise him rather than
to crush him. He thought that there was
nothing in so-called luck. He then told
of the progress which the negro race has
made, despite disadvantages and handi-
caps. Mr.. Douglass in abiding to the re-
lection of the nomination of Mr.. Taylor as
recorder of deeds for the District of Column
bia, declared that If the objection was based
on race prejudice rather than On non-resi-
dence of the District 1t was wrong. On
the platform were p. B. s. Pinchback,
Judge E. T. Christie of Virginia, Mr.. Jas.
