The W. v. U. Glcc Club


On last Friday night the Glee Club from
the University at Morgantown came over to
kingwood aud gave an entertainment in the
new Annoy that was strictly high class i'm
every respect. The notice was very short
and the crowd was not what il should have
been, but still there was fairly good audi.

menis Of the young men from the Athens of
tha West Virginia Hills. There were lust
twenty members of the Glee Club, including
our own Clyde Watson, and Rev. John +
Marley, the rector OF the Episcopal Church
at Morgantown, who Is fine musician, and
likes to get out with the boys ever chance he
has Prof. Ross Spence was the leader Of
the Club, and is violinist of no small repu.
tation, and when he was cncored on his
rendition of The Cascade, by deKoniski, he
gave Schurmann's Traumeri in a masterly
manner that brought down the house, and
was well worth the whole price Of admission.
The Glee Club was recalled time and again
and the applause was so hearty and so en-
thusias,ic that II must have giaddened the
hsefS OF tue boys, even n the attendance
did'not repleie the eSchequer Of the Club.
Every number on the program was good
aud well rendered, aud nearly all were re.
called. We gave the list last week, which
which was adhered TO, except OF course the
extras. Everyone present was we'll pleased
with the performance, and the management
OF the Armory IS 20 be congratulated on the
excellence of the program, although il was
