 Musical Treat
WINS APPLAUSE IN
 DIFFICULT NUMBERS
Prima Donna Well Pleased With Globe on First
 Mining Camp Trip

The music lovers of Gl be were ac. corded rare privilege last night when Ellen Beach Yaw appeared at Dream land in recital.
 Many who had heard her before de- clared that at no previous time had her wonderful voice been purer in tone nor more perfectly controlled. Its clear flute-like tones penetrated to every part of the large auditorium, although at times she sang so softly that it sounded like the faintest twitter of birds.
 Her. control of voice when taking the highest notes is much more perfect now than some years ago and she sings them with apparently the greatest ease.
 There is nothing strained or forced in the tones and he rmanner is most charming.
 The program was specially pleas ing one. Before e, .aring upon the stage her strangely sweet voice was, heard in imitation of the nightingale 's' song and when she appeared she was greeted by a loud burst of applause. In response to encoTes she sang some of the old simple melodies that are dear to every one. Among them were "Dixie Land" and |" No, Sir.'
 Nowhere does Miss Yaw show more perfect control than in her trills. They are above criticism, faultless-and iii Caro Nome from Rigoletto she had ex cellent opportunities for displaying her powers in that direction. To the great delight of her audience she repeated large portion of it in response to insist ent encores.
 "Thou Brilliant Bird was the next number and was accompanied by a flute obligato. But it must have been heard to understand the beauty of the liquid, bird like notes. The voice of the singer and the tones of the flute blended so perfectly that at times 1t was almost impossible to distinguish them and it sounded as if there were but one sound.
 This was followed by simple cradle song and a German love song. In the latter Miss Yaw showed a remarkably distinct pronunciation as well as a most charming manner.
 The finale was the Mad Scene y from Lucia, with flute obligato and in this the unusual fexibility of her voice was clearly demonstrated. Striking the highest notes she would hold them for what seemed an impossible length of time and then drop without a break and seemingly without effort to the low tones.
 Miss Yaw was ably supported oy her assistants, MT. Jay Plowe, flute solo st, and MT. Reginald Deming, solo pianist. Mir. Plowe was late futist under Rich ard Strauss and Dr. Carl Muck of the Royal Opera at Berlin and his playing cannot be too highly praised. He ren. dered several selections with remarkable | skill and expression and graciously res bonded to several encores. MT. Demings performance at the pi ano was faultless in technique and ex- pression and all of his selections were enthusiastically applauded and encored All who attended are congratulating the management of Dreamland upon having secured such talented musicians ! as Miss Yaw and her assistants. In an interview with the Silver Belt the fair prima donna declared herself well pleased with her trip to our city. This was her first experience in a min ing camp and her impressions had been very favorable. She had spent DOT. tion of the day previous in driving to the different parts Of the city and had enjoyed the views from the hills.
 When asked whether she enjoyed wis iting the smaller cities she replied that the novelty of everything pleased her greatly for q change.
 Her manner off the stage is as charm ing as behind the footlights, simple and gracious.
 Like all Globe people who have oces sion to make journeys out of the city she wondered why the train left so very early in the morning. The extremely early rising to be ready for the train, she declared, would be the only disa greeable event of ther stay here.
 They will leave this morning and will visit several other territorial cities be-
