Mrs. Mary Noah.

The death of Mrs. Noah, which ap-
peared in the paper last week, was not
altogether complete with the early his
tory.
Mrs. Noah was born JuIy5, 1889, in
Chester, s. q. AS Miss Mary A. Rob
erts she came 70 Tennessee with her
parents in early childhood. On Nov.
20, 1856, she was married to P. p. Noah.
Mrs. Ncah united with the M. E.
Church ID girlhood and lived con-
sistent Christian until death. She reared
her six children to maturity, two OF
tnem preceding her to the grave.
Mrs. Noah leaves a husband and four
children. three grandchildren and two
great grandchildren.
She passed away June 10, 1912, re-

wonderful. They were marvellous. Now
we hear the majestic tones OF the great
cathedral organ, next the soft cadences
Of the flute and oboe, then the spirit
and FIRE OF the trumpets, all comming-
ling their tones in grand climax Of
harmony, the most wonderful ever
heard from family Of band instru-
ments. One OF the numbers was a de-
scriptiye battle score, one Of the most
remarkable reproductions ever heard,
and a triumph Of band achievements.
AS q soIoist, Mr.. Kryl soon convinced
the audience that he was an artist. The
advance announcements suggested the
fact that the leader had abandoned the
sculptor's chisel for the cornet. II he
met with the same success the sacrifice
was indeed great. He plays gold
plated cornet. 1t is indeed a very hand
some instrument, but when he com
mands it responds, and the auditor for
gets whether it is made Of gold or brass.
He forgets almost that there is cornet
when the tones come crowding in be-
wildering array, now soft and sweet,
with yibrtnt, velvet quality, now strong
with startling power, ascending and de-
scending the scale to the highest aItissi-
mo and to the lowest bass depths with
the utmost facility and ease.
The first numbers we're test OF skill
in handling the instrument, the others
in producing tones. It was all q triumph,
and the audience manifested It's APPROX
al in no uncertain way. II was the one
great musical event IN Union City.
The concert continued until late with
undiminished enthusiasm and finally
broke with shouts and cheers mingled
with the national airs.
Last Friday evening there was another
musical departure for the people Of
Union City and our good neighbors.
The LeBrnn Grand Opera Go. appeared
in II Trovatore, one Of the triumphs Of
Verdi's genius. II Trovatore is one Of
the most popular of all the grand operas
and has been heard more often than any
Of the others probably in the United
States. Italian opera was first intro
iluced in New Orleans before the Civil
War at the old French Opera House,
and II was many years before any other
american city was blessed with the art.
Twenty years or more ago New York

was prejudice against the production
Of opera in Italian and other foreign
tongues, but this objection soon lost
ground from the fact that no matter
what the tongue the average auditor
could not understand the words anyway,
and It is even suggested that the beauty
Of the score is sometimes lost in the
changing Of the words. BE that as it
may, the large audience at the tent last
Friday night heard the principal roles Of
Il II 9aF9yatoir in English BY the LeBrun
Opera Company, four splendid voices in
the work. There was OF course the
absence Of the chorus and the orchestral
complement, but the singers found q
ready response and the production
was nevertheless one Of the artistic sue
cesses Of the Chautauqua. The part Of
Leonora was essayed by Madam Le-
Brun, Count di Luna, Manrico and
Asucena by companion voices Of splen-
did value. The Manrico of the occasion
had very charming tenor and the trios
or ensemble parts were very fine indeed.
The history of the opera is like many
other Of the impossible stories 81 ro-
nance and superstition that control the
theme Of grand opera, but the melody
and lyric beauty more than compensated
for the incongruities Of the story. The
gem ofthe opera was the misereri, sung
by the soprano and tenor.
On Monday the bill included an ad
