BRIDGHAM CONCERT.
Proceeds Will 60 for the Benefit OF the
Levi w. Russell Library Fund.

Loyalty to Bridgham school has ever
been the trait OF Bridgham graduates.
Last year at tho grand reunion at Infan

presented To MIR. Russell 10 be expended
In books to bo used by the succeeding
classes in Bridgham. These volumes
were 10 be chosen as Mr. Russell deemed
proper.
Last night an entertainment was given
in Y. Nj. q. A. hall, the proceeds OF
which were TO go toward continuing this
fund. Owing To the number OF other at
fractions in the city at the same time or
which Sousa's band was presumably the
chief, the audience was not as large as
might have been expected. Neverthe-
less, a considerable company was present
when the first number on the program
was announced. The selections were as
follows;
Piano solo, Selected
Mr. Gcorge.Goulding
"Whirl and Twirl,
women's Glee Club, Brown University;
Violin solo, Selected
Miss Lillian May Eddy.
Reading, Selected
Miss Alice Tourtellot.

Mr. Levi w. Russell.
Piano solo, Selected
Mr.. Goulding.
Rose and Butterfly,
Women's Glee Club.
Miss Barrows, as usual, with her rich
soprano voice and graceful bearing easily
won her audience, while the parts per-
formed by the Women's Glee Club lacked
nothing of their usual excellence. In her
second solo Miss Barrows was accompan-
led by violin played by Miss kddy.
There was some expectancy as to what
reading When he appeared upon the
stage he was greeted with prolonged APP
plause. After. "a few remarks concerning
how his choice of selection was made,
ending by saying that 10 was taken from
the l. w. Russell library collection, he
proceeded TO read o. w. Holmes poem,
1.-The One Hoss Shay" He was given
rousing encore but did not respond.
Souvenir books were presented To each
person at the door These pamphlets,
tastily arranged, containing complete
history of the library fund and photo
graphs of many of the Brigham gradu-
ates, were prepared by the zeal and effort
of the chairman of the committee Mr.
Franklin Moses. Certainly great credit Is
due to Mr.. Moses by whose untiring labor
both the souvenir books and the enter
tainment were q success.

1t is worthy of remark that this club
of pianists has SO long continued 20 exist
for the purpose of mutual benefit, with the
incidental, though to their friends, quite
important function, of an occasional
musicale for their pleasure. The enter
tainment last evening was OF high
order of merit as TO selection OF compo-
sitions and their execution, especially
when IL is considered that all the mem
bcrs are amateurs, and the generous APP
plause awarced each performer was by
no means perfunctory on the part OF the
listeners, but well deserved by those who
took part.
Miss Hicks, who kindly assisted the
club and gave the necessary variety to
the program, has beautiful conJralto
voice of excellent range, which she uses
with taste and skill, and shows the result
of careful training and conscientious
sturdy on her part. She is To be partic-
ularly complimented I'm possessing the
too rare attainment of a clear enuncia-
tion. Tho three rose songs by Jessie
Gaynor were especially charming and
brought Miss Hicks an encore Co which
she responded with dainty song Ivy
Lewis.
Apropos of the long life of the club 1t
>should be added that its personnel has
almost entirely changed since its forlna-
tion in 1879, but the new members VINO
have been added from time 10 time as
their predecessors were obliged for various
reasons To drop out. have brought with
them the fresh life and energy so necos-
sary TO the vitality OF such an organiza-
ton.
Any one familiar with the difiidence
amateur musicians frequently have to
overcome, in order TO play satisfactorily
before others, can easily appreciate tho
value OF the practice such club affords,
where the members have the opportunity
of gaining ease and confidence at the
piano In the presence OF an audience IL
is some time since the club has favored
it's friends with n musicale and 10 Is 10 he
hoped that so long period will not
again be allowed to pass before they may
be invited 10 enjoy "a similar event.
