The second of the series Of organ recitals
at the Pro-Cathedral Church of ST. Marks,
corner Sd and A streets southeast, will be
given on Thursday evening, December 10th,
at o'clock, on which occasion Mr.. Faro
organist of st. Peurs Church, Baltimore,
will preside at the organ. No cards of in
vitation or admission will be issued, but
the church will be open to all. 1t is thought
that misunderstanding upon this latter
point resulted in keeping many away
from the first recital of the series. when
Mr. De Offeo Brown, the new organist of
the pro-cathedral, made his debut in WASH
ington. The brilliant performance Of this
gentleman, who has studied under such
masters as Gales and Gilbert. coupled with
his excellent taste, at once demonstrated
to music lovers and critics his thorough
ability. The third recital Of the series will
be January 10, 1898. The offertory will be
for.the benefit of the Choir Guild.
