,rrsrcALE.-The musicale given at
,50nera House last night by the pu-
III. Of Mr.. W. Il. Starnell's music class,
r..;.tad by several o. their friends, was
Sscidei success and reflects much
'.siit on the participants. An orches-
-. ..s composed of Messrs. Henry Nails,
WsryiD Domaine, Frank Hoy and
P RI. Cation played several selections
t.iore the curtain went up, which were
r p much enjoyed by the large audi.
'ocs The instrumental duet "Fresh
IL BY Misses Pearl Chase and Eta
i,rEson, was good and elected much
snplsuse. Miss Rebecca Pollard was
b bss to good advantage in the vocal
:oIo "Mieuon," her clear sweet voice
c,mpetelv filling the hall. Much
c.sdit is due Miss Mamie Curtin, who
toough moi at her best, acquitted her.
s-It admirably in the instrumental solo,
message of Love. Mr.. VIM. Bryant,
whose rich baritone voice has given so
mpch pleasure at the different enter
rinmeuts in the city, rendered most
beautifully the solo Loves Sorrow.
Misses Helen Leef and Florence Och
Isrt played in most creditable mar
psr the duet FLASH" receiving much
applause. Miss Pearl Chase displayed
much taste in her rendition of the in-
.rumental solo, ''Thine Own. The
solo, Your Voice." by Mrs. Effie Ty-
l.r-Lee was exceptionally we'll render
ell. and showed to good advantage the
rare quality of that lady's voice. The
music in this number was much en-
hsuced by the violin and cello obi
pstos, which were so we'll l.layed by
Professor Dunn and MIR. Walter Whit
tls:ey. The duet by Miss Ruth Curtin
and Mr.. VIM. Stsrnell was we'll re-
csyed by the audience. Mr.. Walter
of Washington, appeared for the
irs. time before an Alexandria audi
slce, and judging from the applause he
received made quite q hit. Mr.. Birch
has full, round tenor voice which did
ample Justice to the beautiful solo,
'Poppies." One of the features of the
programme was the duet by little Elsie
and Mr.. VIM. Stsrnell. This
little girl is only seven years old but
1lay- with n grace that would do credit
10 one of more advanced years. Miss
Pollard and Mr.. Bryant were also
heard ID vocal duet. Last but not
east was the instrumental solo entitled
'R pples of the Alabama" which was
Dlayed in excellent style by Master
.iso. Turner. Mr. Starnell was most eff
ieiantly assisted in the accompaniment
with the singers by Miss Graham, of
