CONCERT BY MIR.
 KERR SPLENDID BOUQUET OF SONG

The Universa1ist Woman's club fur nished a treat to Bridgeport patrons 4oS the splendid art of song, last night, of the club, by U. 5. Kerr, who was assfsted by Franz x. Muhlbauer, a most talented pianist. The Church of 4he Redeemer, 262 Fairfield, was com- 4ortabfy filled with a critical and fash 3onabIe audience at 8:15 when MT. Kerr sang his first selection, "Kypris," by Holmes. MT. Kerr's program was suhiciently varied to display all the possibilities of his really wonderful of unsual register and exceedingly sweet in those highest notes, which so try the vocal organs of most basSos. ~ From the rollicking and voluminous Rolling Down to Rio" to the melod- fous "Song of the Evening Star from was complete. His rendition of the .sToreador Song' from Carmen, was done with dramatic fervor seldom ex- celled. the mighty chords swelling to such grand dimensions that they found fhe auditorium too small for them.
 Indeed, if single fault could be found with the concert it is that the Acoustics of the auditorium, in some bortfons Of 1t, were not good, and that is scarcely a thing that can be helped. The audience showed it's ap- preciation of MT. Kerr's work by an applause, intelligently enthusiastic.
