4 GREAT THRONG.
The great hall, which was beautifully
decorated with flags, began to MI up py
& o'clock. and from that time until aiter
the concert had commenced the crowd
continued to pour in. 1t was exactly
quarter TO 8 when Professor Porter as
cended the stand and faced the array
of sweet singers in white gowns ana
caps. and the bassos and tenors, VINO IN
sombre black brought up the rear. one
wave of the baton and this mighty choir
stood up as one body
The first No. on the programme was
"Virginia's Welcome" a grand chorus
arranged by Messrs. l.. L. Watson and
James c. Harwood, the latter the eiii-
cient chairman of the Music Committee.
This was received with the most enthu-
siastic applause, for il demonstrated the
strength of the chorus. and gave prom

mann, the violinist, playing selection
BY De Beriot.
The second part OF the proSTdlhihe "aS
the cantata of 1.-THE Resurrection ar
ranged and composed by Professor Por-
ter This was almost masterpiece, ana
the audience listened spell-bound,
through the different portions of the
work. 1t was the story Of the Resurrec-
ton told in music, and ended with tri-
umphant chorus, Christ Being Raised"
The arrangement Of the selections was
as follows: l, The Glorious Name chorus;
.. Sharing His Sorrows, bass solo ana
male semi-chorus; 3, The Dawn is Now
Breaking; 4, The Walk to the Sepulchre,
solos, trios, and semi-chorus; D. Behold!

duet; g. We Trusted He to Victory,
male chorus and tenor solo; 3, Now Is
Christ Risen, chorus, with soprano solo,
TO- Behold! He Cometh, quartette; H.
Christ Being Raised, chorus, with solos.
The solos during the rendition of these
selections were sung by Mrs. Maude Por-
ter Gum. Mrs. $. NJ. Brown, Miss
Frances Diggs, and Captain Frank cum
ningham and Mr.. Oscar Lehman.
That the concert was a most emphauc
success was conceded by every one, ana
there is no doubt that the work OF the
chorus was a splendid effort, while the
soloists were excellent in the several
numbers they rendered.

SING SACRED SONGS.
Concert at the Auditorium II Great
Success-G.OOO People Heard IL.

The first event of the greatest religious
gathering that has ever met in Rich
mond occurred at the Auditorium last
night. when 700 voices united in praise
to Him on high, while a vast audience
Of 5000 people gave ear 10 this mighty
chorus. They listened with that feeling
of emotion which only grand music can
inspire. as this wave of sound rose and
fell, now soft and low in cadence. then
swelling I'm its volume as ii swept over
the great hall like a flood Of melody. until
the very rafters caught up the refrain
and echoed IT,
The concert was a sacred one in the
true meaning of the word. The gathering
was an outpouring of those who came
to hear a song service, and they listened
TO music as inspiring as any that has
ever been heard in this city. What melody
is in the human voice those in
that immense audience fully appreciated
as their ears caught the notes sent up
from 100 threats. No better place could
have been selected for the concert than
the Auditorium the walls of which have
once before trembled with the wave
sounds Of such a chorus. Indeed, the
Auditorium is the only building which
would have accommodated the large
audience.
THEIR FINE WORK.
When conscientious and painstaking
work will accomplish with those VINO
have hitherto undergone no voice culture
was certainly demonstrated last night,
for four-hfths OF the chorus had received
no training until Director Porter took
them under his charge some weeks age.
Yet. last night in excellent time 10 MS
baton, they sang like well-trained
chorus and their work was not lacking
in any of those essentials which make
an ensemble that Is well-nigh perfect.
A large orchestra, composed OF some
OF the finest musicians OF the city, ac-
companied the chorus. The splendid work
Of the chorus was relieved by the solo
numbers on the programme. Those VINO
contributed TO this part of the concert
were: Mrs. Maud Porter Gum, soprano;
Miss Sally Montgomery Brown soprano;
Miss Francis Digs, cOntralto; Captain
Frank Cunningham, tenor, and Mr.. Os-
car I.ohman, basso. Mr.. Charles Brock

one Of the features that seemed to
please the delegates most was their be-
ing met out Of town by young men and
young women of the Reception Commit
tee. ut was one of the handsomest
things l have seen done at any conven-
ton" said a New Jersey delegate last
night. AS soon ne We saw the white
caps OF the young people somehow we
felt at home and by the time we reach
ed Richmond IL seemed we had known
our pilots for years"
Those caps are becoming to a degree.
They dock well on the heads of the men
and boys; they give piquant. jaunty
air TO the girls that is very pleasing. a
fact Of which the fair wearers seem
thoroughly aware.

sils which beset our human bodies would
soon disappear"
But few adults know how to breathe
corr ectly and naturally, owing 20 the
strained condition of nerves, the result Of
years of worry. The work of first inn
portance, then, is to get started again in
natures way. Speaking out of my own
experience, as we'll as hundred of others,
L know that correct breathing exercise,
if faithfully practised, will do much TO
bring health, vigor and strength of body
to those who are weak.
Then, with correct breathing habits
| formed, with those muscles which right
| fully hold the breath made strong, re-
| leasing those strained throat muscles,
| (Which cause WEAKNESS to come SO
quickly to most singers) with s free
laryDx bringing perfectly united regis
| tiers, with tone started without effort ard
brought to the proper focus, with tongue
words so that they msy be easily fol-
| lowed by an audience, and q face express
sive of the thought sung. these elements,
together, make up the simple but beau
tiful ideal which il is my Joy to follow
and to impart to others. Handel, when
told by his sovereign that the perform
apce of the messiah" had afforded him
pleasure, replied; "Your MAjasty, did
not intend to amuse, or to afford pless-
ure, 1 meant to make the world better"
This too, is the aim of every man ard
woman and in no better way can this be
accomplished than through the art Of
music, for it is allied to the highest SEN
timepts of mans moral nature-love Of
friends, love of country, and love of
God.
