JUBILEE SINGERS
SCORE USUAL BIG HIT

1T was large and highly apprecia-
tive audience that greeted the Will
liams Jubilee Singers at the Auditor
ium Monday night, and the program
rendered was of decided merit and
class.
Every number was warmly received
and il is doubted whether a more en-
joyable concert has been given in Den
yer for many years. The Rocky Noun
tain News of Tuesday morning had
this to say of the famous colored COM
pany:
"The weird, plaintive melodies of
the Southland shared honors with the
familiar arias of famous operas at the
Auditorium last evening when the Will
liams Jubilee Singers presented their
program to a large and very apprecia-
tive audience.
'The program proved unusually va
ried, ranging from the old plantation
melodies, Negro spiritual songs,
through grand opera and popular
tunes of the day. The most enjoyable
portion of the program was the rendi-
ton of the grooming, tragic melodies,
expressive of the Negro race and
which were sung only as the Negro
can sing them. The religious tunes
telling of the emotion of a spirit-filled
people were particularly well achieved
and the selection of some of the best
known and most-favored, enhanced
the enjoyment of this phase of the
program.
"The quartet was delightful and was
led by Mr.. Williams, not only singer
who knows just what he does well and
does it, but comedian of no mean
ability. Mrs Williams has the most
soothing grooming quality in her voice
and merry twinkle that she uses to
aid in the depletion of her song"

THE AGE-kERALD !
AIbaDy-DeCattIr Ala Nav %

If Cupid's darts go astray, it is
against the law to keep the arrow
Thus says the Morgan county court
backed up by the supreme court of
Alabama. If man admirer gives a
girl of his choice an engagement
ring and then the girl breaks the en-
gagement, and male admirer asks
for the rings return. then the girl
must return it. Thus says the local
court and the supreme court makes it
almost unanimous.
The ruling came about through a
suit brought in the local court for
return of an engagement ring. A
jury thought under the circumstances
the ring should be returned and said
so. The defense took the suit to the
Alabama supreme court, which af-
firmed the lower court The case
was returned on technicality and
tried again today. For second time
the jury has answered the plea of the
plaintiff to get them presents back"
and ordered the defendant to give up
the diamond.
