A dispatch from Munich reports her en-
ormouy success there as Brunnhilde IN
the Nibelung festival performances.
She accomplished the almost unprece-
denied feat Of singing the three Brunn-
hides Of the "Walkure," "Siegfried,"
and "Gotterdammerung" on three con-
Mcutvo days, with unimpaired vocal
movers The receipts were the largest

for the German critics to acknowledge

The Tabernacle held q great audience
Yesterday afternoon on the occasion Of
Inc organ recital. the galleries were en-
rely filled and several hundred people
from the Irrigation congress including
The victorious Texas delegation, and
their Mexican band, escorted by United
States Senator Smoot, occupied the
ground floor The program was Of
special excellence, two Of the numbers
being the Church Scene" from the
"Cavalleria Rusticana," and the great
overture to Tanhauser. The organist
was at his happiest IN both of these,
and his orchestration was particularly
artistic and effective, There il no es-
cape from the fact that for the pro-
ducti0n Of orchestra effects, there Is not
another organ IN the country that will
surpass the Tabernacle instrument, and
this Is demonstrated at every recital
by Prof Mcclellan. 1t was a matter Of
astonishment to the visitors from
abroad, and they did not hesitate to
express their admiration for the lnstru-
ment. Little Miss Mildred Amy Parker
played the "lntermezzo" from the
'Cayallerla Rusticana" on her violin TO
the organl accompaniment; she per-
formed with a beautiful, clear, well
rounded tone, and with an intelligence
Of expression that was gratifying to
both h er friends present and to the en-
tre audience. The vocal solo was by
CHARLES Kent and he made such a good
impression that he had to sing Sec
