/ The work of the choir was up to
the usual standard of excellence, un-
der the able direction of Mrs. r. c..
Minor, chorister, whose rare and love
~ voice, temporarily silenced owing
to illness, was greatly missed, but the
creditable work done by Mrs. Minor
during the more than four years she
has directed the choir showed forth
in the grand ensemble in Hayden's
3rd Mass, the prominent parts of
which were magnificent1y rendered by
the choir with Miss Loomis as soprano

At the morning and evening serv-

Much EcIat With Grand Re-
cital-Easter at Pilgrim.
St. Paul can now boast of a mag
nificent pipe organ in Pilgrim Bap-
fist Church. The splendid instrument
which is now installed in the choir
loft was presented with grand recital
on April 9Th at which time the grand
eur and power and sweetness of the
most up-to-date pipe organ in this city
was demonstrated by Prof. G. H. Fair
clough of st. Johns Episcopal Church,
the leading pipe organist of the North:
west. Mr.. Fairclough's splendid abi1-
ity at the organ needs no greater at
tention. The Tuxedo Quartette of
which st. Paul is justly proud, was
compelled to respond to repeated en-
cores, so highly was it's work appre-
ciated. Miss Alma Peterson, soprona
soloist of the First Baptist Church and
prominent in the highest musical cir
cles of st. Paul.. completely charmed
her audience with her beautiful voice
and graceful manner. The rendition
Of the bass solo 'The Mighty Deep
by Mr.. Allen ]. French was mas
terly effort and revelation to those
who had not before heard Mr.. French's
voice. Miss Norma Williams violin
number, showed the results of her re-
cent study in Berlin and the work of a
finished artist. The audience was in
spired with the spirit of the glorious
music she played. A brief lecture on
pipe organs, disclosing the worth and
grandeur of the new instrument, was
Wy -
Central Park Methodist, Church. one
of the ablest ministers of the North
west and prominent among the best
friends of our race in St. Paul. Rev.
Saterlee was introduced by Pilgrim
efficient and popular minister, Rev.
w. D. Carter. Mrs. Bismarck C. Ar
cher, st. Pauls premier accompanist,
presided at. the piano in her usual
pleasing and artistic manner. Mr.. W.
T. Francis acted as Master of Cere-
monies.
The Recital was under the man
agement of Mrs. w. T.. Francis,
whose work in connection with the
Pipe Organ movement is so highly
appreciated by the entire city.
Easter Day at Pilgrim Baptist Church.
Easter services at Pilgrim Baptist

available space, the committee rooms,
platforms, ETC., and aisles, Pilgrim

beauty of the new organ enhanced
by the new hardwood floor which was
put in by the Young Peoples Society;
the flowers, the palms, the music, the
lights and the beautiful amber dome,

whose death occurred three years ago
