that had filled that concert place for
ninety minutes. The light had CtrCled
from left to right and when it was at
its full through the trees and a broken
land line, which is part Of the southern
boundary Of Union bay, the stream OF
light was seen stretching to East Seattle,
five miles away.
Two hours before the time set for the
concert the crowd began arriving, and
when the overture was played not only
every seat of the u, 900, arranged in great
semi-circular slope, tier upon tier, had
been taken, but persons were standing
from ten to fifty deep in a great half
circle about the rear Of the seats. such
was the order maintained that the lowest
note was as distinct as If sounded in
building where the most perfect acoustics
prevailed.
THE turnstiles registered 2,2S3 persons
al the fair yesterday, and fully tWo-thirds
of this crowd gathered at the concert
place. Those who could not get within
hearing or seeing distance Of the concert
turned away to see the Pay Streak, real
izing that they had made a mistake in
not coming earlier.
THE Tabernacle choir. under Leader
Evan Stephens, and Claiming Ellery's
band, under the direction Of Di GirOlOmO,
arranged a program that embraced the
best in their respective repeTtOiTeS and
there was just enough of each, with the
audience showing perfect importantly
in its applause and the leaders respond
ing to the enCOTes with numbers that
invariably brought even great enthusi-
asm than had marked the original num-
Der.
After the close Of the concert the choir
sang two imprOmptu numbers, How Can
Bear to Leave Thee" and Seattle,
Home of Beauty" to the old familiar
tune. The crowd appre ciated the high
compliment paid the city and fairly made
the hills ring with cheers.
THE crowd itself was a study, and as
interesting to the performers as they and
their work were to the audience. There
was some scramDling to get seats to-
wards the latter end Of the filling Of the
great natural theatre, but when it was
all over the best Of order prevailed and
the place was emptied in good style"
1t should also be added that Horace
Ensign eXcelled in his rendition Of Her
berts My Gypsy Sweetheart" which,
given with vocal accompaniment by the
choir. was so wildly applauded that he
was obliged to return four different times
and repeat the chorus.
Following the concert the choir sere-
naded the Utah building before taking
the train for their homeward journey.

during the great week, especially in con-
