SERIES CONCLUDED.
George Riddle Again Delights a Gull
tured Audience by his Readings.

Another small audience gathered
last night to hear Mr.. George Riddle.
A surprising feature, SO far as the
audience is concerned has been the
almost utter absence of the faculty
of the University Even the stu
dents, for whose benefit the readings
were obtained, did not attend in
large numbers. The townspeople
were fairly well represented on all
three evenings.
Mr.. Riddle opened the programme
with scenes from Romeo and Juliet.
No more magical artist could have
been found to interpret the wonderful
shades Of delicate and beautiful senti-
ment, appealing to all the emotions,
with which the play abounds. Where
all is excellent. it is difficult to distin-
guish, but the contrast OF the tender
ness of the balcony scene with the wild
force and fury of the dueling scenes
was especially admirable. Another
wonderful artistic triumph was the
development of Juliet's character from
lovelorn, thoughtless girl, whose
greatest grief was the daily parting
from her lover, TO the desperate, hero
ic woman: whose love had keyed her
up to the endurance Of unImagined
horrors.
In the second part of the program
Mr.. Riddle introduced his audience TO
quite new phase of his versatility.
1t is not unfair however, to say that
the change from Shakespeare's crea-
lions to ordinary modern situations
made an anti-climax, which was some
what against the reader. Many can
read minor selections as well as Mr..
Riddle, but no one can approach him
in his presentation OF Shakespeare; in
this line all his listeners agree that he
stands alone The audience, how
ever, thoroughly enjoyed a laugh at
the gossip of the New England seams
tress, and the scientific play at the
card table.
To say that Mr.. Riddle reserved the
best to the last would not be true, but
he certainly aroused his audience to a
very high pitch of enthusiasm ut Kip
ling's stirring 'tBallad of East and
West" Kipling is prominently the
poet of action, the poet of the age;
Mr.. Riddle brought out in the mag
nificent swing of the verse the stirring
life of the "Guidess, the rough chlv-
airy and honor of the wild border life.
AS an encore Mr.. Riddle gave Kip
ling's L'Envoi. fitting ending to
series of reading which for artistic
and literary merit it would be impos-
sible to suIpass

VARSITY WON.
Buckhannon Never in the Game
at any Stage.

Lucky Hits and Errors Gave the Visit
Ors Their Only Runs Decisive Down
Fall of Hall the Crack Pitcher from
the Wilds of Upshur flames FRIDAY
and Saturday at Home.
Buckhannon came here full OF con-
fidence in Archie Hall and the ability
of the Seminary to defeat the Varsi-
ty. The team and rooters went home
full of woe and filed with the idea
that the local lads cannot be beaten
by team from Upshur county for
some years to come.
The teams met on Wednesday after
noon on Athletic Field and when the
dust blew away the score was l6 to
in favor of the w. v. U. boys.
In but one inning was any scoring
done by the visitors. This was in the
sixth when a few lucky hits together
with several errors gave them four
runs.
They were never dangerous and af-
ter the Varsity batsman had solved
the delivery of Hall they never had
the ghost Of show to win.
Cunningham played fine game and
allowed but five hits while he struck
out Is men. The locals made fifteen
hits off Hall who lost his glittering
reputation in short order.
There was some wrangling which
might have been cut out without
hurting the feelings Of the spectators.
Buckhannon started to leave the
field once but the point for which
they were contending was allowed
them although the rules gave the adj
vantage to the Varsity.
Tomorrow the locals play w. U, 2.
and fine games are looked for.
