sica)e al fhe Commercial club TUESDAY
evening had been closed by the rendi"
ton Of the GODDARD 'Concerto Roman
tiauc,D there was regret by the large
number of guests that the charming en-
tertainment was finished me 2nall
has been mentioned as social WIN Il
musical setting; it became cohceiV:
and a real feature of the concerts OIL
the season, because all the performers
were residents of this city
The Commercial club has become Ia
nous as dispenser OF good things,
and its rooms have often rung Win
sounds of gaiety from entertalnmentSs
given for the men. Tuesday night ~
cause for the first time IN several years
the ladies OF the club and the wives
sisters and sweethearts of the members
were invited. The rooms Of the elup
were beautifully decorated with iioWers
and palms, The great dining, room was
set with tables laden with light refresn-
ments, including many OF the most
choice products OF the culinary art
Attendance is Large.
The club was crowded with members
and their friends, and they were wen
repaid by the entertainment provided;
The programme was a varied one, and
in spite Of its length was pleasing
throughout. Many of the performers
are great favorites here, and there was
distinctly home atmosphere to the
affair which differentiated IL from the
usual concert.
Under such circumstances it is not
possible to comment critically on the
rendition OF the different numbers. The
performance OF two numbers by string
duintette was new feature OF concerts
in this city and added a pleasant touch
to the programme. Their appearance
was a promise of what may be accom-
plished by an organization OF TINS kluo,
and the rendering of one of the move
meuts of the ouintette. Op. IS by
Saipt-Saens. was especially delightful
A flute solo by Willard Flashman was
played daintily aud proved not the
least charming of many delightful num-
bers given.
Weihe- is Pleasing.
The feature OF the concert, perhaps,
was tho appearance Of Willard Weibe
with beautiful rendition of a Russian
air, in the Wieniawski setting, and as
second number the GODDARD concerto.
Mr.. Weiho'S playing is too well known
TO require comment, and he charmed as
much by his exquisite rendering of
these pieces IS by tho delightful tech
pque he displayed. Mr.. Mcclellan, uu-
der whose direction, as chairman OF the
music committee of the club, the mu-
steal portion of the entertainment was
produced, played the accompaniment III
o charming manner and with due regard
FOR the personality of the soloists.
Following the concert refreshments
were served, and the affair was con
;inued with social gaiety until n late
hour. Following IS the complete pro
gramme.
