QUEEN ESTHER CANTATA.

An old, old story of Bible times. How
deeply interesting 1t becomes when we
are brought In close touch with the
scenes, the characters and the plots of
such, by the portrayal of a Bible story
in modern times. The lives of Esther
the beautiful queen, of Mordecai, la
man, Ahasuerus and the Jewish peo-
pie appeal to us strongly as we listen
TO the recital, in song, of the wrongs
that were suffered, of the supplicatiOns
offered. Of hatred aud jealousy, If the
queens unseliish petition To the king
to save her people, at the peril of her
own life, OF her forgiveness and prom
Use that her people shall go free.
This sacred cantata was given on
Tuesday evening in Central Hall by
about fifty of Yales best talent and
about thirty children. Mrs. II. o. Law.
rason, wife of the pastor of the Nj. T..
church, directed the play and through
her untring efforts the result was a
thorough success, very pleasing to Mrs.
Lawrason and all the participants.
Although the opera house stage is
hardly enough for such number, the
arrangement and placing of the ch0-
ruses and prominent characters was
very good indeed. Most of the cos
tunes were rented for the occasion and
all were well adapted TO the modes of
olden times. The scenes were effective
and strong and the solos were well rem
dered. The children in white, doing
homage TO the queen in song and drop
ping flowers at her feet, made apretty
picture. The final chorus WAS grand
and made fitting close 10 the cantata.
Mrs. j. +. Staley, as accompanies de-
serves well-merited praise for her zeal
in the enterprise and all the hard work
going with it.
1t was announced that, through
many requests, the cantata would be
repeated OH Wednesday evening. The
proceeds of the two evenings amounted
to about $l20 and, the expenses being
quite heavy, the sum of nearly $75 was
Melted to the NJ. +. church people.
