Club is Fortunate.

Owing to the great prominence the
Steindel Trio has in the musical
world the rcat6 M lfsfe CLUB was
most fortunate in securing a musical
recital by them October 6 in the
Baptist church. Mr, IS teiRdelsli win!
go to the Ractfjs soastt tmEnedf lately
after the. orchestra season is over m
Chicago, and will not return until
the last? Of May or early in June.
Bruno Steindel is the solo-cellist OF
the Theodore Thomas orchestra and,
is too well known for praise to be
given him now. His mastery OF the
instrument is most perfect. The
austrian vioIifItst, Hugo TSortschak,
stands with great prominence in the
Philharmonic orchestra Of Berlin
and also in America, and the pianist,
Ottoker Malek, shows great skill in
his execution of the piano in bril-
liancy and originality, and is looked
upon as a wonderful artist. Miss
Grace Riheldaffer. as the solo So
prano, has a wonderfully cultivated
voice which contains that quality
which distinguishes voice and
makes it great, both in magnificent
range and lexibility, and her pres
ence in the city means a rare treat
to music lovers. The Marcato Club
has gone to. great expense in bring
ing these artists to Clarksburg and
it is hoped all its music-loving
people will secure their tickets at an
early date, SO as to, assure the club
the recital will be a great success.

nesday in the interest of Hon. j
Pope Brown, did not put in his ap-
nearance and neither did the crowd
he was expected to speak to.
1t was a cold, raw day, and no
body came to town, fewer people be-
ng on the streets than usual, and
no town people were on hand at the
hour for which the speaking was ad-
vertised.
