concert of distinct merit was that
given by the Barre Male Chorus, assisted
BY Irwin Potter, reader, and Edwin
Bruce, yiolinist, at the Barre opera house
last evening. In fact, It would conform
to tmthfulness to state that no more
enjoyable program has been given here
by professional talent. A large audience
received the various numbers OF well.
arranged program with enthusiastic APP
plause, and the original program Of ten
numbers was almost doubled, which
speaks well for the merit OF the efforts.
The concert was under the auspices OF
Granite lodge, No. 80, f. and A. NJ, which
is to be congratulated in presenting so
artistic an entertainment.
The fact that the participants were all
Barre people gave added interest to the
event. That so well-balaneed a male
chorus as the twenty-five voices that
comprise the Barre Male Chorus could
be gathered together in this city Is proof
positive Of the wealth of musical ability
here, and Of the good training by the
leader, L. G. Grihiths, the well-ltnown
tenor The chorus work was especially
enjoyed by the audience, which assertion
does not reflect. however, on the merit of
the other entertainers work.
The chorus parts of the program were
complemented with solos By Mr.. Blake,
basso and Mr.. Griiiiths, tenor, and by
quartette consisting of Messrs. Griiliths,
Mitchell, Grant and Messer, while Mr..
Bruce, the accomplished vioinist, won
new laurels to himself and showed evi-
dence of the training gained by him in
his several years study with some of the
best masters Of the violin in Austria.
Of the fine Interpretation of Mr. Pots
ter, nothing perhaps need be said, except
that, good as he always has been in the
field Of platform reading, he seems to
have gained materially in his work. 80
that he has reached a high stage Of ex.
cellence. His rendering Of AThe LOST
Word" was very effective, indeed
Mrs T.. J. Batchelder was accompanist
for both the violinist and the soloistss

quirements of the position made fully
possible the undoubted success of those
