A MUSICAL TREAT.
The Cantata ''Rebecca" Rendered Before
Highly Cultured Audience.

All available space in Robbins opera house
was occupied by an appreciatiye and music
loving people Of Shenandoah and surround
ing places last night to listen to rare
musical treat in the rendition of the dramatic
cantata "Rebecca, " under the auspices Of the
p. NJ church choir, which was ably assisted
by the best local talent our town affords.
The first musical strains were heard from
the Schoppe orchestra, in an overture, which
was executed in such a manner as to display
the ability of the members Of the orchestra
as musicians. This was followed by the
raising of the curtain showing Abraham
(portayed by Edward Cooper, in his tent
who sang Let us bow before the Lord" 1t
is well to state here that the first appearance
of the whole cast was a very creditable one
which upheld the appreciation of the audi
ence until the curtain was dropped in the
last act Each solOist deserves much credit
for the manner in which they sang their
respective parts, which, in connection with
the assistance of the Schoppe orchestra and
the piano accompaniment of John Hough
bespeaks for the success of the affair
Few people of Shenandoah are aware of
the excellent talent lying dormant in our
community, but their conscience was aroused
last evening to the possibilities of their own
citizens. The performers were encored and
urged to their best efforts to promote the
rendition of similar musical treats in the
future.
The singing of Misses Lizzie Jones, soprano;
Jennie Hares, contrato and Sarah Baugh,
mezzo-sopano, was full of expression and
their exceptionally fine voices echoed
throughout the hall. They sang their solos
in beautiful manner. Messrs William E.
Phillips, Thomas Hall, w. H. Waters and j.
J. Price, tenors, deserve honorable mention
for their distinction in singing their selections.
The bass portion by Messrs. Edward Cooper
and Daniel Minnick did justice to their part
of the work. The baritone voices were ably
handled by Messrs. Z. O. Malick and Harry
Reese, and showed careful training Their
selections were rendered faultless, notwith-
standing that this was Mr. Malicks first ap-
pearance in public. The orchestra arrange
ment for the cantata was made by j. NJ.
Sehoppe, director of the Schoppe orchestra.
The success of the oantata is due in great
measure to the members of the committee
having the affair in hand, and especially
Messrs. William Phillips and Edward Cooper
Miss Lizzie Jones was the leader and to her
management of the choruses and solos was
much of the successful rendition due.
