TIE AUDIENCE HIGHLY PLEASED.


An unusually fine audience greeted the
Smith Sisters ut the Academy last night
in Il concert given under auspices of the
X. II y. NJ. G. a. This is the second
appearance in our city Of this gifted
uuintette, and they are sure of II good
house ut any return date they may make.
With the exception of one or two of the
voices there is nothing especially re.
markable for solo wock that would be
characterized rs anything beyond n sweet
parlor voice, but in their concert work so
beautifully do the voices blend and so
close and so perfect is the harmony that
one must indeed by hypercritica who
fails to be charmed with their singing
With single exception the numbers rem
dered were of that simple, home-likc
class OF music so popular to tile average
lover of music. And yet, there was not
uuintette OIL Il scXtettc that did not bear
the stamp of infinite, painstakin2 study
in its shading aud nunciaticn-the two
things that, after all, make or mar con.
cert work. Seldom have we had II deeper.
richer contralto voice than thar of Miss
Grace Smith, and her selection, s'Never
Again" ranging from middle ''C'' to
lower " E' flat, was inst the piece to
show the scope and power OF her voice.
Miss Ferguson in Nerdis 30 Don
FATAL" displayed IL good, high soprano.
well cultivated aud fully capable of fill
ing the large hall in which she sang. The
sacred seXtette, Lead, Kindly Light"
arranged by Moisseau, was perhaps on
the whole the best received number on
the programme, the clcvcrness and
beauty of its harmony showing the clubs
concert work to it's best advantage As
an impcrsonator of the child. we have
never heard anything more naive, more
child like, than Miss Marguerite Smith
in the several rccitations she gave, and
that her talent wns appreciated by the
audience was evidenced in its prolonged
and hearty encores. The evening was Il
pleasant one. the audience an apprecia.
tive one, ard the receipts should put quite
