The Pro-Cathedral was thronged last
evening at the last of the special musical
services which have been held during the
past season The work presented was Sir
John Stainer's "The Daughter Of Jairus,"
conceded by musicians to be one Of the
best Of the Sta1ner works. The cantata was
admirably sung by st. Katharines choir of
the parish, composed Of fifty men and wo-
men. The shading was good, and attacks
were made with that precision and crisp
ness which comes from careful drilling and
hard work. The soloists, all of whom sus-
tained their parts in good shape, were Miss
Eleanor Terry, soprano; Mr.. Melville D.
Hensey, tenor; Mr.. Richmond +. Bingham,
baritone. A repetition of the work will be
looked forward to with great pleasure.
