BRILLIANT RECITAL.

Miss Ruth Mildred Thrasber of This
 City Scores Elocutionary Success.
 A brilliant elocutionary recital was given last evening in the Allingtown chapel by Miss Ruth Mildred Thrasher of this city. The recital was very sue cessful, the chapel being crowded to the doors and that the programme was much enjoyed was evinced by the ap- plause with which Miss Thrasher was interrupted from time to time. AL though the entire programme was well received Miss Thrasher's rendering Of the first scene in the second act of Halm's "Ingomar' and in a lighter vein Dunbar's "A Coquette Conquered" are worthy of special note. Her best work os the evening, however was in Merrill's 'Tlle Soul of the Violin" This beautiful story was handled with grace and skill and was finished to degree.
 The humorous hit of the evening was scored with "Hazing of Valient," one of the well known pieces of this kind written by Jesse Lynch Williams of Princeton, the famous author newspa- per man and correspondent. It was in MT. Williams usual inimitable style and dealt with the unfortunate adven- lures of a MT. Buckley. one time lordly Princeton sophomore, and suc- ceeded in sending the audience into storms of applause.
 During the intermission number of Hawaiian songs were rendered by Mir. Kaulukan of the senior class of the Yale law school. E. #t
