A DELIGHTFUL RECITAL.
Misses Lena Bean and Louise Robinson
Please the Music Lovers.

Miss Lena Bean gave an organ recital
at st. Marks Episcopal church, Mon
day evening, that was one of the most
delightful musical entertainments Au-
gusta has had in long time. Miss
Bean announced that she would give
recital assisted by Miss Louise Rob-
inson, at the church, and the music low
ing public seemed to have all gathered
there, for before o'clock, every seat
| in the large church was taken, and the
! isles filled with people. Many went
home on account Of their inability to
enter the church.
| With the first sweet strains of the
Invocation" Miss Beams listeners felt
| the confidence and content with which
she always inspires her audiences. She
has long been known as teacher and
solo pianist of exceptional ability, but
it was Augustus first opportunity to
hear her as an organist outside Of her
church work. and as usual she more
than met all expectations. Her Sc
lections showed her versatility. also
displaying the capabilities of the or
gan.
Several short selections brought out
the different combinations. but the
greatest contrast lay between Chopin's
Funeral March" and the last two Sc,
lections. Miss Beans rendition of the
Funeral March with it's slowly sway
ing, deep toned Introductory measures
left nothing to be desired. A little
later, after a grand crash, the fairy
like movement of the gavotte from
"Mignon," caused one to think nothing
could be more dainty. Then came the
grand old march from "Tannhauser,"
Beams touch. but rather served to en-
phasize her wonderful technic.
Miss Robinson sang, and it seems al
most impossible to convey to those I'M
fortunate enough to have remained
away, the pleasure she gave. Her
voice is pure. sympathetic, and lovely,
and shows careful study. Her first Sc
lection, "By the Water of Babylon"
showed her voice to great advantage.
BY request, Miss Robinson gave, as a
second number. THE Birding" a little
Swedish song in which she is at hel
best.
1t was truly delightful evening, and
their admirers hope to hear them In
concert again this winter.

One of the Sunday papers announced
that the volunteer regiments that
were ordered to be mustered out of the
service. would. without doubt, be re-
tanned in the service on indefinite fur
loughs, as the war department was not
sure but that they would be needed.
So far as known no orders have ar
rived for the LIST Maine, who are to be
mustered out, beginning at Portland,
today. The paper from which the
taken. is the Army and Navy Journal,
and General Richards informed Jour
mel reported. Monday, that the original
referred only to the regiments fur
Laughed for 60 days.
However, an order to the effect that
the regiment was to be retained for a
time, at least, would be an acceptable
one to many in the 1st Regiment. The
feeling of so many is inclined toward
being retained. that Captain Conley Of
Co. l., has volunteered to raise COM
pany in Portland for the regular army,
if desired. Captain Conley does not
care particularly about going into the
regular service, but he made that
statement to show how the feeling Of
the men of the city stood.
1t would have been as great a source
of qualification to General Richards,
to have seen the LIST Maine remained in
the service, as long as other regiments,
as to any one else in the State. He
thinks that after they left Chicka-
manga and returned home or taken 70
some other place where they could
have recuperated, they would have
been as good regiment as there was
in the volunteer service, and would
have carried the reputation that they
had at the start to the very end

It speaks volumes for Paine's celery
