cANTATA spLENDIDLY RENDERED
And Large Crowd Was Much Pleased
with "Belshazzar.D

The Baptist church auditorium was
| filled to its seating capacity and large
number were in the yestry adjoining
last evening to listen to the dramatic
| cantata, "BeIshazzar,p which the young
people of the church rendered in an es-
pecially fine manner.
| The cantata deals with the Bible story
| OF Belshazzar, who, even while the Per-
slams, under Cyrus, are besieging the
city, takes time for a feast with a
thousand of his lords, where wine flows
freely and revelry is at its height. It
IS then that the handwriting on the wall
appears, and it did appear last night in
most realistic manner, bringing mes
sage that Daniel alone was able to in
terpret, after the soothsayers OF the
kingdom had failed. and which sounded
the death knell Of Belshazzar himself
and his kingdom. Daniel is honored and
while the king and his guests are still
in the banquet hall Cyrus and his forces
break through the gates and kill Bel
shazzar.
The cast OF characters included solo.
lists so well known in musical circles
that the merit of the production must
be at once recognized and was as fol-
lows: Belshazzar, king of Babylon.

Besides these leading characters, there
was chorus of about 25, all the par
Elephants being in costume. The music
itself was most delightful and its rem
dering left nothing to be desired. X is
a long time since local talent has given
so thoroughly enjoyable an entertain
ment.
To the fine leadership of Mrs. r. ].
the director, much of the
success of the entertainment was due,
also to Miss Blanche Spaulding, who
acted as pianist, and Miss Ethel Inglis,
organst.
While IL seems unfair to single out
any from the entire participants TO men
tion especially, it must be admitted that
the solos of William and Fred Inglis
were particularly enjoyed, also the duets
by Fred Inglis and Richard n. Lamont, |
and William Inglis and Miss Glee Wood |
All the others were equally worthy of /
especial mention, and the promoters of |
the affairs may well feel proud Of the
result of their efforts.

THE BANDS SIDE.
Has Lost Some Members but Places
Have Been Satisfactorily Filled.

Editor, Times: viii you please allow
me a few lines of space in your columns
to make an explanation in answer to
certain remarks that were made in a
meeting of the city council in regard to
the ability OF the Barre Citizens band
to deliver sixteen park concerts with
credit to themselves and this progressive
city?
As manager of this organization.
viii say that the prospects for this sea-
SON are that Barre win have the best
band that it ever has had, and we have
the climber" also. One of the valuable
assets of Barre is its band and, instead
of being knocked, we want encourage
ment and boost We have lost some
members in the last year, but the
places have been filed by equally as
good men and, in some cases very
much better.
Some people might think that by ap-
propriating $1,000 for band concerts
someone was getting some money out
of it. The facts are these. that for
the over fifty nights in the year that
the members devote to rehearsals and
concerts, they receive S32 each. Does
anyone consider that a valuable con-
siderationg We are striving to give the
city OF Barre the best band in Vermont
and desire to get all the encouragement
possible to that end.

Washington, d. c., May l4.--That the
rebels encountered desperate resistance
in their final attack at Tampico, and
that they were compelled to carry their
fight to the heart of the town. was in
dicated by Rear Admiral Mayo's report.
He stated that at one o'clock yesterday
afternoon when it was reported the
rebels had occupied Tampico, there was
heavy rifle firing continued. Advices
received by constitutionalises here stat
ed the federals were evacuating Tampi-
co. but details were lacking.
The federals were retreating by way
of the railroad leading to San Luis Po-
tosi and it was assumed that they hoped
to reach Pachuca, the terminus of rail
way line that leads indirectly to Mexico
City. The railroad out of Tampico to
Monterey is held by the constitutional
lists.

TO avert disaster. They carried those
nearest them to upper floors, while
police sought TO quiet those in the cor
ridors and other police at the entrance
fought to restrain the thousands who
blocked the streets outside and who.
ignorant of the situation inside, were
making desperate efforts to crowd with
in the doors. Finally the crush became
so great that Police Lieutenant Conroy
sent in riot cali and the reinforcements
succeeded in restoring order.
1t was four o'clock in the afternoon
before the casket was finally brought to
the quiet of the decedent3s home and his
sorrowing family was left alone with its
dead.
