DEATH OF THOMAS L. MORGAN.
the Most Respected Residents Of the

lie Was q Noted Welsh Author and Ono of
the Most Respected Residents of the
West Side.
Thomas Llyfnwy Morgan, the Welsh
author and writer, died very suddenly
at his home on Jackson street yester-
day morning at 2.3O O'clock. Very few
knew of his Illness, which in any event
had been considered but slight, and the
news of his sudden death was shock
to all that knew him. To the Welsh
literary people of Wales and this coun-
try he was we'll known, for he has
been writer to the Welsh press, 4
noted essayist and historian and lead
er in eisteddfod matters for the past
forty years.
He was born in the quaint village on
Monknash, near the ancient castle of
st. Donat, on the English channel, In
the vale Of Glamorgan, South Wales.
on May "a, 1881. Always active and
young, for he refused to be an "old
man." full of good nature, true friend,
never known to refuse kindness If in
his power to grant 1t, 1t Is no wonder
that he had hosts Of friends, who sin
cerely mourn his death.

OPERA SCORED A SUCCESS
Chimes Of Normandy Sung in an Ex-
cellent Manner at Academy.
ROLES CLEARLY INTERPRETED
Professor Richard Lindsay Has Reason to
Feel Proud Of the Fino Work That
Was Done by Ills Young
People Last Night.

The Scranton Oratorio society, under
the direction of Professor Richard
Lindsay, scored distinct success at
the Academy of Music last evening In
the Chimes of Normandy" very
tuneful opera.
Owing to the frequent encores and
the delays incident to first perform
ance by an amateur company the cur
tain did not go down OH the last act
of the opera until after II o'clock. The
large audience received the opera in a
most enthusiastic manner, as II de-
served to be, for the work of Scranton's
amateurs, assisted by Nine. Louise
Natal and Henry c. Peakes, was su-
perior to that of members of many
professional companies who have sung
the opera in this city.
Taking into consideration that the
chorus was almost, If not wholly. made
up of amateurs, with practically no
experience of dramatic music and the
consequent stage work, the rendition
of the opera last evening in such an
excellent manner adds materially 20
the praise showered upon the chorus
and their talented conductor. The
ladies', particularly. We're most efficient
in their pieces and quick to catch the
spirit of the opera. 1t was not an easy
matter to discover traces of the ANA
teur in their actions.
Nine. Natnli's Fine Work.
AS Germaine. Nine. Louise Natal
acted her part to the least detail. She
is evidently imbued with the spirit Of
that role and sung and acted 1t fault
lessly. Her sweet voice was displayed
to great advantage in the pretty music.
Miss Julia Allen exceeded even the an
ticipations Of her friends as Serpolette,
a part full Of difficulties to the amateur.
Her Interpretation was splendid, the
dramatic talent she displayed being q
| revelation to the audience.
Henry c. Peakes, as Gaspard, the
miser, has established reputation in
connection with this part and he sus-
tanned the same last night in every re-
| spect. AS Henri, Marquis of Corneville,
John II. Watkins was an ideal marquis
and scored great success in the rendi-
| tion\ Of his solos. Although suffering
| from hoarseness, he displayed great
power in interpreting operate music.
| His solos were heartily encored.
John j. Gleeson was successful in the
role Of Grencheux, although he only
had few days to study it, the young
| man who was rehearsing that part with
the company having been taken sick.
| Daniel Jordan, as the Bailli. and wall
Coyne, as the Notary made most
| favorable impression in these charac-
| ters. The other roles We're also in
| competent hands.
