The Green Ridge Baptist church was
organized on September %, 1892, and
special services in celebration of its
tenth anniversary were begun last night
in the beautiful new church home on
Monsey avenue.
The services last night were in the
form of roll call of the members OF
1.-THE congregation. The church was well
filled and as Rev? II. s. Potter, the
pastor, called the roll those members of
the congregation present. men, women
and children responded with the recita-
tion Of selection from scripture. A
number of those who were unable to
be present sent letters containing words
of encouragement.
When Rev. Mr.. Potter reached his
own name he said:
II deem 1t high honor to be able to
administer to the spiritual needs of this
loyal Christian people and I earnestly
hope that we may continue to work
together in harmony in the service of
our Lord and Master"
The pastor announced that fellow
ship meeting will be conducted on FRI

ginning at 7.3O o'clock. A number of
informal addresses will be made at the
conclusion of the supper.

niversary services both morning and
night with sermons on both occasions
by the pastor. Letters which have been

Partridge, of Cincinnati, former pastor
of the Penn avenue Baptist church, will
be read at the morning service. Miss

Allen and Tom Gippel will furnish

sion which had been established in 1890.

Finn chapel on Penn avenue. Later
the congregation, consisting of about
sixty families, moved to the Nettleton
building on Green Ridge street.

the church was Rev. w. j. Ford, who
remained with the congregation until

Schumann-Heink-Adams

The joint recital at the Columbia Theater
yesterday afternoon by Mesdames Schu-
mann-Heink and Susanne Adams attra ted
a very large and fashionable audience.
Both ladies had been heard in this city be-
fore and both are known as members of
Mr.. Grau's Metropolitan Opera Company.
Nine. Schumann-Heink again demonstrate
ed that she is the best contralto now before
the public. She displayed her dramatic
power and fervor in the oratorio selections
and also in some of the Schubert and schu-
mann songs while her versatility was
shown i'll lighter compositions particularly
In "Wolin,' which was given SO delightfully."-
that she was obliged to repeat it, The
enthusiasm of the audience, however, cul-
minated after the singing by Nine Schu-
mann-Heink of a BOero by Arditi and
in response to the demand for more she
sang the Brindisi from ''Lucretia Borgia, !"
as it has not been heard in this city In
many years. In this selec her dramatic
power, as well as the remarkable range of
her voice, found full play. and she received
positive ovation at its conclusion. Nine
Schumann-Heink s voice is wonderful in
its volume and compass and the richness of
it's tone. Its t1exibility for contralto is
remarkable, and it is under such. perfect
control that it's clearness, even in pianissi-
mo passages, is heard with perfect distinct
ness In every part of the house.
Mrs. Adams. a singer of more than ordi-
nary ability, with a voice of considerable
purity OF tone and of great fleXibility, was
we'll received and abundantly applauded
Her first number was the well-known aria
from Traviata,' which she gave with good
effect. She then gave a group of songs,
closing with The Little Thief composed
by her husband, Leo Stern which had TO
be repeated. Her closing selection was a
waltz song by Mr.. Stern, which gave her
full opportunity for f1orid execution.

Academy of Music.

The most delightful and entertaining of
all the New England comedy dramas is
Shore Acres which comes to the Acad-
emy of Music for a weeks engagement,
commencing Monday evening. March g..
This play Of James A. Herne's is one of the
most popular ever produced on the Eng
disappearing stage. The present season is
it's tenth.
OF "Shore Acres it may be truly said
that it is picture of human nature. In
the foreground are displayed all the traits
that ennoble and elevate mankind. while
the shadows show the weaker side of hu-
manity. Mr.. Herne's creation is honest,
simple and truthful. 1t is a beautiful
story that the late actor amatst told in
'Shore Acres" His hero is awkward and
ungainly, but he has been crowned with
the glory of self-sacrifce.
Among the players in the "Shore Acres
company this season are Messrs James T.
Galloway. Atkins Lawrence. William H.
Burton, Allen Crolius. Richard Conley and
the Misses Marion Cullen, Belle Theadora,
Matte st. John. Sadie Cullen. Gertrude
Doherty, Mary Henery, Vivian Bryen,
Gladys Crolius and Helen Henery.
Mr.. Galloway. formerly Mr.. Herne's un-
Gerstudy, is playing Nathaniel Berry and
Miss Cullen will appear Helen. Entirely
new scenery will be used. The usual mat
inees will be played.

ConINC ATTRACTIONS
New National Theater.

Maude Adams will appear at the National
Meater next Monday night in the new
comedy by ]. M. Barrie, author of 'The
Little Minister" entitled Quality Street."
The play has just closed one Of the most
successful runs ever played at the Knicker-
booker Theater, New York, and from all
accounts scored a distinguished success,
proving a very worthy addition to the
authors other delightful plays and novels.
He has given the gifted American actress
the opportunity Of adding a new triumph to
her laurels. Her success will be gladly
welcomed by local theater goers, for Miss
Adams is held here, as she Is elsewhere, in
great esteem.
Mr.. Barrie's new comedy is in four acts,
and the scene is laid In quaint little Eng
llsh town about the time of the Napoleonic
wars. Miss Phoebe Throssell-Phoebe OF the
ringlets. as she Is affectionately termed-is
the heroine She ,e Is -, quaint demure,
the play opens. She and her sister Susan
live together in a pretty little home on
Quality street. The former is very happy
over the attentions of manly young fel-
low, DR.. Valentine Brown, and awaits q
visit from him, expecting his regard will
manifest itself in declaration Of love. Her
sister shares her JOY and happiness, and ex-
ultingly presents her sister with a pretty
wedding dress. which she had once fondly
hoped to wear herself. Mr.. Brown makes
his expected call. but instead Of declaring
his love, he simply comes to bid them good
bye, for he Is going to the war to fight for
his country. The play proceeds with nu-
merous touches Of comedy and sentiment to
a CHEEKY denouement.
Miss Adams company Is a large one. and
includes the following players: Sydney
Brough. Arthur Barry. Joseph Francoeur,
William Levers. George Irving, Frederick
Spencer, Fred Santley. Ida Waterman.
Marion Abbott, Helen Lowell, Sara Petry
and Sarah Converse.
The production is in thorough harmony
with the locality. spirit and atmosphere Of

and brilliant audiences. A Saturday matt
nee only will be given during Miss Adams

THE Bombs Brf4f Bush." dramatization
OF Ian MacLaren's group of Scotch stories
A stage version of these stories was seen
IN this city several seasons ago at the
Lafayette Square Theater. and at that time
Mr.. Stoddart was leading member of the
company. assuming the responsibilities of
the same part which he now plays. This
dramatizattony however, should not be con-
fused with. the one that will be here next
week any more than the numberless YER
sions Of other standard works should be
subjected to !3nvidiouS comparisons. The
play that was first presented here was
based on the same story that the present
piece Is. but In the manner OF treatment
there Is wide divergence. After all Is
said and done one cannot depend on the
story Of the play nearly as much as one
can depend upon the manner of the treat
ment Of their subject. For instance, the
pana numberiess versions OF Don e Sassar s de dc
the latest 10, 20 and 3O-cent version. and
surely 1t would be unfair to place one along
side OF the other and call them the same
play: This Is particularly true IN the case
Of '"The Bonnie Brier Bush" for when
kirke La Shelle gained possession OF the
play he not only realized its true value
and possibilities. but he saw his waS-clear
to overcome all the defects ana to make
a play that would be worthy OF the lnsplra-
tion Of the author Of the story James
Macarthur. who is close in sympathy with
the subject and with the author of the
stories, is the dramatist who has made this

exquisite simplicity. brings a smile to the
lips and tear to the eye. Ihat subtle at

When it is said that Mr.. Macarthur mas
fully accomplished this that the play teens
with the real atmosphere of the glen o
Drumtochty, little more remains to be said
in its praise. When the play was produced
in New York last September at the Iheater
Republic, where it enjoyed run of eight
weeks, it is doubtful if any play or player
was ever more generously praised than
were Mr.. Stoddart and THE Bonnie Brier
