SOCIAL LIRE IN ST. PAUL

III WlAL LINE In III. PAUL II
A genuine musical treat is always af
forded the audience that hears Miss Ella.
Richards play and those who were rres-
ent last evening at the Park Conerega-
tional church to hear Sthis young Wo
man in her annual public piano recital
found as much if not more than usual
to applaud. Miss Richards is an ambi-
tious artist, but her ability so seldom
falls short of the Otter Unusual demands;
made by her program NINE, that one would
not care to have a sfhgfe number of that
programme omitted. z8EMiss Richards
technique is always excellent. often bril-
liant. Her reading is subjective, but the
Subjectiveness is NOT serVille In Bacl,'s

Miss Richards was assisted last evening
by Mrs Charles Howard TregO or Chi
cago. Mrs. TregO has. a dramatic So
pranO of unusually wide range. The
lower notes are coutralt0 like in deDth
and richness, but the upper tones while
clear and high are Penetrating rather
than sweet Mrs. TTego's somewhat i'm
passive manner when She sings appears
a trife fnsympathetic at first, but in her
encore last night and in her second group
OF numbers, the impasSfTeness resembled
more commendable~ repose.. Her n11u-
bers were: PLUS Grand Dams Son Oh
scurite' from Gounod's 5. Queen of Sheba
Beloved 1t is Morn" AElward and
Song Of Sunshine" by Goring Thomas
In addition to these, Mrs Trego was
obliged to respond to two encores. Mrs
r. l. Hoffman accompanied the singer
last evening in her usual efficient man
ner. ~.
