Presbyterian Organ R.citaI.

The organ recital at the Presbyterian
church last evening was not as we'll at
tended as the occasion warranted. Com
ing as it did however on the same even
ing with the Chautauqua concert, it lost
largely by the latter event. The recital
was eminently satisfactory to the audi
ence and was well received. The organ
which has been presented to the church
by Andrew Carnegie, through the former
pastor, Rev. w. r hoffman, was the main
point Of interest and it stood the crucial
test well. In clearness and richness OF
tone the organ is surprisingly fine and
the selections made were well calculated
to show up every part. The instrument
is three manual, IS feet wide, I8 feet
high and ten feet deep. 1t has 1880 pipes
and ~ pedals. In appearance it is most
attractive. 1t is finished in quartered oak,
surmounted with pipes. decorated in
colors and gold. While last nights per-
formance was given by the manufacturer,
