vinia st. Clair, assisted b. Mr..
Paul c. Baltz, tenor, f Kansas
City, was the first of its kind
ever given here and one Of the
most satisfactory musical enter
tainmentS that teachers Of the
college have produced. Wonder
full effects are possible from two
pianos at the hands of such ar
fists as Miss Robbins and Miss
st. Clair, and yesterday evening
these two young ladies were at
their best.
Following was the complete pro
gram;

Misses st. Clair and Robbins
In the opening number Miss st.
Clair played the solo piano with
Miss Robbins accompanying on
the second instrument. THIS con-
certo is beautiful and brilliant,
the melody in the last part being
especially tuneful. With a touch
firm and gentle Miss st. Clair
produced the trills and intricate
runs exceptionally well.
On their second appearance the
performers changed places, Miss
Robbins playing the solo part.
Her rendering of the difficult
"Concertstueck" seemed mar
velous. The ease with which she
took the most demanding passa-
ges and the glissandos with both
hands at once was a refutation
to the statement that it takes a
man to get the best results from
a piano.
In the last two piano numbers
Misses st. Clair and Robbins play
ed parts of equal importance, al
ternating on first and second pi-
ano. The two selections in the
last number were the most popu-
lar on the program and seemed
to please the audience most.
Mr.. Baltz, of course, pleased
everyone with his beautiful lyric
tenor voice. He is really a pure
tenor with the proper quality as
well as range. He holds o high
place in the esteem OF music low
FRS in Lexington, as he probably
does wherever he has sung.
Yesterday evening his selections
were light and easy to under
stand, thus affording a pleasing
contrast to the more classical pi-
ano music. Mr.. Baltz was forced
to give an encore after each APP
pearance. His extra numbers
were "Bowl of Roses by Clarke,
81 Know a Lovely Garden by
DHardelot and ga Dream" by
Bartlett.
A high standard of excellence
existed throughout the program
and there was absolutely no weak
spot. Misses Robbins and 81. Clair
are indeed to be congratulated
upon their arrangement Of the
program, their rendition Of it and
their selection of an assistant.

A scheme of reorganization was adopt

found he disclosed secrets which they
hoped were known to none but tn cir most
intimate friends. The life OF the court
seemed to be laid bare by his wonderful
powers. and nothing was talked OF for
some time. until the shrewder minds felt
sure that only Rochester's talent could
carry on such a game. and so II proved.
At other times he was inimitable as a
porter or beggar; indeed. he could per-
senate any character to perfection.
That he had a spirit for better things.
had he been wisely directed, is evident
from his volunteering to join the earl OF
Sandwich when he went to sea in 1865.
During the engagement that followed IT
was necessary that a dispatch should be
carried from one ship to another in the
very heat Of the fight, and in an open
boat Rochester went on the mission at
the great risk of his life; yet the ruffiers
of the court used to taunt him with cow
ardice in avoiding the duels which his
satires brought upon him. Sid c. scrope
thus wrote Of him:
Thou canst hurt no mans fame with
thy i'll word,
Thy pen is full as harmless as thy
sword"
His constitution was not strong enough
to bear his excuses and he early broke
up. Then, convinced Of his past folly.
he sent for DR.. Burnet, made confessions
of his reckless life and negation OF all
religion. and entreated to have his
doubts about Christianity dispelied.
Burnet has left a touching account OF
the unfortunate nobleman's last days.
He desired that all his wicked writings
should be destroyed and longed to undo
the evil he had done by making his
deep repentance known to all the world.

seeking the money which the company
owed them.
