MRS. HAsKELI,s READING.

For the benefit of the West End Kin dergarten School, Mrs. Fenetta Sargent Haskell gave an evening of her delight full reading and impersonation last evening in the chapel of St. Johns Episcopal Church, and for an hour and a half held the interest and rapt atten- ton of a cultured, representative and critical audience.
 Mrs. Haskell has in the excel lence of her work earned the right to place among the most gifted artists in the country. Possessing the good Tor tune of a wonderfully attractive stage presence in that she is graceful and handsome, she completes the list or requisites to success on the platform by her magnetic personality and sym pathetic, rich ranged voice.
 In her program last evening, Mrs. Haskell threw heart and soul into each character, until she was for the time, being" not seeming" the part she impersonated. The requirements of her varied program were great In the de- mand for versatility. and the artist met them. In '@rhe Bishops Reception or Jean Val Jean," from Victor Hugo's Les Miserables, the force and strength or her work was masterful. The begin ming of the story of the emancipation of Human Soul from Evil by the Poem of Love-The Story of The Stolen Sii- yer, ending: You no longer belong to Evil but to Good. I have bought your soul of you; I give 1t to God, was done by Mrs. Haskell as only a master of the art of elocution could handle it'
 The range of her capacity seems 10 have no boundaries. The nasal tones of David Harum, the pathetic intonation of the old negroes who were unkno"- ingIy celebrating their golden wedding as Ruth McEnery Stuart tells IL, the braggy innocent voice of the littie poy telling the big bear story, as James whitcomb Riley writes 1t, all find hn- ished result in Mrs. Haskells rendition
 Mrs. Haskell's laugh has become noted, and in Robert Burdette's story or a man trying to repeat a joke, Not lth-Standing," it was heard to US best until her entire audience involun- tariIy joined In with her and enjoyed the wholesome exercise that good laugh Is said to be.
 The program last evening included:
 The Bishops reception of Jean val Jean, Victor Hugo.
 Music.
 Billy P. Cullom's Investment-E. N. wescott's David Harum.
 The Bear Story. James Whiteomp Riley.
 The wooing of David and Dora, Charles Dickens.

 Mrs. Haskell Is a charming woman socially and was a guest yesterday at the meeting of the Ionian Club with Mrs. w. L. Durr and the members en- loved a privilege in meeting her. She was the guest of Major and Mrs. w. w. Screws during her stay in the city. MARRIAGE OR MISS KAHN
