The Musicians EqualIed the Audience
in Numbers at the Festival
Chorus Entertainment

The Topeka Festival chorus last
evening sang before an audience which
was but little larger than the chorus in
point of numbers. The management
was much disappointed in the small at
tendance.
Prof S. F. Cravens Of Ottawa, who
will direct the grand chorus of 1000
voices at Ottawa this week, held the
baton last evening. Miss Gertrude
Tracy presided at the piano.
The Creation is an OratOriO which
requires fully an hour to produce. 1t

by Mrs. Parkhurst and Messrs. Shirer
