The Delaware Gazette has the fol-
lowing to say of Montaville Flowers.
who appears at the Methodist church
tonight in interpretive recital under
the auspices of the Epworth League
lecture course:
Gray Chapel was filled last night
by the audience which assembled to
hear the rendition of Ben Hur, by
Mr.. Montaville Flowers. Delaware
audiences are accustomed to the best
talent the country affords, yet sell
dom has an entertainment of such
merit been rendered in our city. Mr.
Flowers is recognized as standing
among the foremost in his art, and
his efforts last night certainly con-
firmed that recognition among Della
ware people.
THE impersonator combines with
many natural qualifications the es-
sential elements of refined taste,
good judgment, cultured manner
and a wonderful ability for literary
Interpretation. While possessing
ability as an orator, he at the same
time exhibits great histrionic power,
and while never descending to the
tricks and arts of mere entertainer,
he yet has the faculty of holding his
audience as few speakers can. His
wonderful impersonation of the vari-
GUS characters in the story, his rapid
change from one to another, quickly
adapting himself to the characters
tics of each, showed a versatility
and power of adaptation rarely
equaled. His ability as a monolo-
gist is of the highest order; he is a
success from every point OF view.
