THE HARRISON REcITALS.

Prof. Richard B. Harrison, the noted
tragedian and entertainer, appeared
this week in the Twin Cities in roper
toire. He showed his remarkable
versatility and rare talent by his in
depreciation of Shakespearian plays
and humorous selections. He spent
Monday evening at St. Peters A. NJ.
E. Church, St. Paul, and. completely
captivated his hearers. His first ap-
pearance in Minneapolis was at St.
Peter A. M. E. Church on Wednes-
day eve. He read from Merchant of
Venice, and Julius Caesar" with
filings from Dunbar. He drew large
crowd. In spite of bad weather, there
were many to hear him Thursday
evening in Macbeth" Mr.. Harrison
one of the best American tragedians
in Macbeth. He has made thor
ough study of this character, and his
brief explanations and dramatic inter-
pretations, with such forceful rendi-
zion, are the means. by which he
charms his listeners. By special re-
quest he appeared in Damon and
.Pythias" on Friday evening-anothcr
large success. He VIII return again
in the near future to have week with
Shakespeare and Dunbar in this city.
He was personal friend of the lam
ented Negro poet and without doubt
presents his works in true Dunbar
style. Mr.. Harrison's recital was a
social and literary treat, highly in
structive and entertaining, and he is
much impressed with the culture and
refinement of his audiences.

Of four years. The third minister was

Graduates from 'The Johnson School
of Music, Oratory and Dramatic
Art.

Mrs. Withers, wife of the Rev. M.
