~"~FF~AAAAASO
The social given a. the Baptist

badly the largest and most success
full affair of the kind ever given in
the city. 1t was a reception prim-
arily for the new members Of the
church but an invitation was ex-
tended to ev9ry one. Strangers
and visitors in the city were made
especially welcome. The big tabF
ernacle was thronged throughout
the evening, the crowd numbering
perhaps eight hundred people.
Pastor Bennett made a short well
come address in which he explain
ed the object os the gathering. Bro.
Bennett believes i'll sociability, he
wants people to get acquainted and
favors less formality in the church.
Mr.. J. d. Bridges also made one of
his characteristic impromtu talks,
that was heartily appaluded. The
social was undoubtedly a success in
serving the objects for which it was
intended. The members OF the
church and the crowd of friends
and visitors mingled in the most
cordial manner Ice cream and
I cake were served free for every
body The Baptist people are to
be heartily congratulated upon the
success Of the affair. The church

soLoIsTs ANNOUNCED
For Bach's Passion Music Perform
 ance March 29.

ance March 29.
 The soloists selected for the grand performance of Baclls Passion Music March 29 were announced last night by Professor Parker as follows:
 Mrs. Hyssenl de Moss, soprano; Mrs. Gertrude Stein Bailey, contralto; Nich- olas Doughty. tenor; Gwilym Miles, baritone; Ericsson Bushnell, bass.
 There are but few singers in the world equipped with all the necessary qualifi- cations for adequately interpreting the very important solo parts in Bach's ssPassion Music.'' One of the chief requisites is complete familiarity with the score. No society would dare un- dertake this work without soloists upon whom absolute reliance as to knowledge of the music could be placed. Com bined with this must be rare musical intelligence and complete sympathy with the purposes of a composer treat ing the noblest of themes. It is with great difficulty that artists can be found embodying these requisites But ill the above mentioned singers it is be- lieved the very best available material has been secured. It is the same cast which has sung for the past two seasons with such satisfaction at the Bach fes- tiyals at Bethlehem. In this respect the management considers it has been most fortunate, for as every one knows the greatest Bach performances given in this country drawing hundreds of pilgrims from all parts of the land take place season after season in the beau tiful little. Moravian town of Pennsyl- vania.
 With the securing of these artists the final step has been taken toward assur- ing most interesting performance at Woolsey hall on March 29 next
 The chorus last evening had an ex- celent rehearsal, going over the entire work and developing some of it's finer and subtler aspects. At the close of the rehearsal Professor Parker ex- pressed himself we'll pleased with the progress being made
