The evening tribune. (Pawtucket, R.I.) 189?-190?, 1897-06-05

The recital by the pupils OF Miss Katie
Butler at Temperance Hall Wednesday
evening was success. The hall was taste
fully decorated, and the audience, large
in numbers, was select and In mood to
.appreciate the excellent program rendered.
About the stage were placed large palms,
ferns and potted plants In such profu-
sjsn that pretty scenic effect was created.
The occasion must have been very
gratifying to the lady In whose
honor the recital was held. In speaking
Of Miss Butler 1t might be said that she is
one of the most accomplished musicians
In this vicinity and has made host OF
friepdA by her readiness to assist at all
entertainments of charitable nature. On
account Of this willingness on her part
the hall was crowded, particularly oy the
members Of the Sacred Heart parish, for
whom she has appeared on many occa-
sions without asking pecuniary remunera-
tion. She was assisted by the following
well-known talent: Miss Mabel Blaney,
Miss Mary Curran, Mr.. Halton, bass, Miss
Nellie Butler, reader, Of Worcester, Mass,
and Charles McCloskey, violinist.
OF the performance of her pupils nothing
but praise can be said. In q case where
such excellent merit was displayed, 1t
would be unfair to singularize the work of
any particular pupil. The pupils by their
meritorious work spoke volumes for the
musical ability OF their teacher.
Miss Mabel Blaney, Miss Mary Curran
and Mr.. Hatton simply captured the audi
dience, and each were compelled to re-
spond to hearty encores. Miss Nellie
Buffers readings were a revelation to her
hearers, and she had spoken but few
words when 1t became apparent that her
abilities as public reader were second to
none heard in this city for sometime.
