A genuine musical treat is always af-
forded the audience that hears Miss Ella.
Richards play and those who were pres
ent last evening at the Park Conorega-
tional church to hear this Young wo-
man in her annual public piano recital
found as much if not more than usual
to applaud Miss Richards is an ambf-
tious artist, but her ability so seldom
falls short of the offer Unusual demand;
made by her programme, that one would
not care to have a sfiigfe number of that
programme omitted. z@nAiss Richards

liant Her reading is subjective hut tho

Miss Richards was assisted last evening
by Mrs. Charles Howard Trego. or Chi
caSo. Mrs. TreGO has q dramatic So
prano of unusually wide range. The
lower notes are coutIalt6 like in deDth-
and richness, but the upper tones while
clear and high are :Tenetrating rather

trifle lfhsympathetic at first but in her
encore last night and in her second erolIp

more commentaries repOse.. Her num-
bers were: PLUS Grand Dams Son OBJ
