which are being worked out by David
SOnquist and the incidental music
which will be played by an orchestra
Of string, reed, and percussion instru-
ments concealed in the real of the
stage. This music will serve to give
the weird Indian atmosphere to the
scene and while it will at all times be
purely incidental. 1t has been carefully
selected SO that it will help to portray
all the more wildly, the moods of the
various speakers.
A half hour concert will be given be-

IN ORGAN RECITAL.

Clara A. Pollock, q very promising
young organ student. was presented in
a recital program by the Fargo Con-
servatory OF music. Wednesday even
ing last, at the First Methodist church

one to say the least. It was Miss
Poibock's second formal recital and
she acquitted herself splendidly and
displayed a wonderful advancement, in
her chosen work in the field of music.
since last year when she did extremely
well. Despite the multiplicity of ap-
rointments, just now, the player was
greeted with a goodly audience which
was delighted with the apparent mas
terry Of the great instrument which
was always under command and from
which she brought out the best of de-
lishtfil melodies.
There were nine numbers on the
program divided into three roups The
hrst group wal a work by Lemmens
and there were W by Hollins. Miss
Pollock began to show brilliancy in the
second number, Benediction Nuptiale,
by Honins, and in this she aroused
enthusiasm, The Prelude and Fugue
in G minor and Fanfare, by Lemmens,
disclosed the players m~usicianly inter-
probation, and she was very pleasing
in the two first numbers Of the group
with which she closed the program.
Miss Pollock is charming with a style
that is simplicity itself and there was
no seeking after effects, but both ap-
parent throughout her playing.
Miss Pollock was ably assisted by
walter c. Wright, baritone. of Moor
head, who was accompanied by his sis
ter. Lillian c. Wright. who was as bril-
:hant as usual. The program for the
evening follows:
