A PACKED HOUSE.

The Shakespeare recital last evening
at the ". NJ. G. a. by Rev. w. n. Barr
was Enthusiastically an artistic treat of
the highest order. The hall was packed
to it's utmost capacity by the most cul.
tured element of Roanoke society. Mr.
Barr's rendering of Julius Caesar sur
passed the highest expectation of every
one present, and were he not already dis
tinguished among American readers, last
nights recital alone would be sufficient
to place him in the forefront by all who
heard him. His reading was revela-
ton, in which his splendid voice, per-
sonal appearance and gesture all combined
to give y mastery expression of Shakes
peare's greatest tragedy. His rendering
of Mark Anthony's speech over the dead
Caesar was inimitable. The large audi.
ence was electrified through and through
and listened with bated breath to every
syllable. Roanoke is to be congratulated
on having heard such master of what
Carlisle has called "the divine art of ex-

programme was contributed by Mrs Ella

he played with his customary vivacity
and expression. Mrs. Seelgson played

and as an encore, The Last Hope" OF
Mrs. Seeligson's art IL is not necessary to

the Roanoke public. Under her hand the
