training was everywhere apparent
His voice carried well with all parts,
and his solos we're also highly appre
clated. Mr. Kundret surprised his
best friends with marked improve
ment in his tenor work. What might
be called the power behind the throne
in the production, was Prof. Emil
Winkler at the piano, so ably assisted
by Miss Genevieve Hughes. Mr..
Winklcr played every note with a
grace and precision that was support
such as all singers must appreciate.
Salem is to be congratulated upon
retaining Mr.. Winkler with his great
musical ability.
Many of our citizens hope that
Prof. Heritage will remain in Salem,
however, it is not at all certain. He
has done a grand work in developing
the muSicl tastes of our city as well
as planting in many individuals the
beginnings of what will lead to high
culture, under continued
training. 1t is the wish of many that
he may remain among us and con
tinue to give Salem the benefits of
his talents.

THE ELIJAH.

The Oratorio at Reeds operahOuse
Friday evening was another land
mark in the advancement of smusica-
art in this city, upon which the Salem
Choral Society and its efficient master
are to be congratulated. There is
not another city on the coast that has
the talent to produce the Elijah.
Praise of the performance will not
be attempted, but there are few
points pertinentto the average audi
tor. No common musical skill can
bring together an hundred voices in
training for so great and grand a
production, and render it to the COM
plete qualification of so large an audi
ence as appeared at the Reed. Every
number from the fine solos, rend-
cred by the Mesdames CouPson and
Reed, to the grand choruses, was
pleasing, sand in music that is a
quality too often lacking.

Bloch's beautiful work In the "Mes-

pointed in Mrs. Courson, who took up
her part at the eleventh hour. Mrs.
