MISS NITLLIsONS RECITAL.
Miss Mabel Ailnson gave a recital at
Plymouth church Friday evening which
moro than ever convinced the Wichita
people Of the power Of this able artist
Miss NIilIison has deep insight into the
master pieces Of literature and rare
ability in personating character. There
is no effort at over display Of emotion,
but Just balance of feeling. She is a
master OF dialect. Her rendering OF
1.-THE Christmas Guest" was very tender
and Rneys lines through her lips make
one see the easy and happy character he
loves.
Mrs. Millison had been heard before
as Shylock, but last evenings recital
showed the power in monologue-one of
the hardest parts Of a readers work.
Few who were in attendance on Friday
evening will forget the heroism Of Helen
Thamre by Elizabeth Stewart Phelps as
she was made to stand before the pub
lie in Miss ATiIlson. Pleasant mention
should be made Of the aid rendered by
several Of Wichlta's musicians. The
piano solos by Miss Calhoun and Miss
Hall and the cello solo by Mr. Parker
were enjoyed. Miss Elizabeth Shattuck
surprised the audience with her fresh,
strong voice and "The Red, Red Rose"
by Mrs. II. B. Wilson reminded people Of
a favorite contralto soloist. 1t is to be
hoped that Miss MiIlison may follow this
with many other public appearances. In
her progress the city IS pleased. The
program was:
