Dur ing the early part of her career in New Ha- ven she was heard in various light operas given Dy amateur tdleHI. fteF part III the revival of 'Pinafore' in New Haven by ann ateur talent ten years ago will be recalled by most people. She assumed the role of Little Buttercup in this performance, and later on, when amateurs of New Haven ar ranged for the production of "Antigone,'' she took part.
 Mime. Oertel was ffty-two years of age. She was of French descent. Her husband was Julius Oerte, who was on officer in the Prussian army, and hls death occurred about eighteen years ago. Mime. Oertel 1 gained her musical education abroad and in the prime of her career she was n favor ite in London and other European cities. | She always maintained that the best part of her musical career was during loug engagement at the Theater Royal In Ores den Mime. Oertel possessed a fine contralto voice.
 Mme Oertel is survived by two sons-- Hams Oertel, Ph. D., professor of linguis- | tics and comparative philology Tn Yale uni verslty, and Dr. Horst Oertel, pathological | assistant in the New York Medical college | and assistant in chemistry to Dr. Janeway, l of New York city.

and have been part of the time under
the instruction of Prof, John Brow
er of Chicago.
All of the chairs were filled and
some had to stand. Waxahachie
thus showed her estimation Of the
quartette.
They expected rare treat, but no
one thought Of the Quartettes being
able to sing az they did They rem
dered number Of quartette's. Mrs
Leeper and Miss Rogers sang a duet
and Miss Bishop sang a solo. Their
voices blended spiendidly and the
class Of music sung by them was of
a high grade.
There were two pieces rendered by
them which deserve especial men
tion-''I Think OF Fhee" and "Wel-
come p retty Primrose" These
pieces are seldom better rendered by
professional singers The people
showed their appreciation by DON
tiuuous applause and frequent en-
cores Another feature was reel
tation by Miss Boone
She is one of WaNahachie's prime
favorites and Of course was encored.
1t is To he regretted that Miss Boone
is thinking Of leaving Waxahachie
and making her home in TT. Worth.
The program was very enjoyable
aud Waxahachie is real proud OF

if that was all they wanted mar
riage could be pulled off in short or
If they would procure the necessary
credentials. In very short period

license and preacher and the pris-
oner was brought from his cell for
