MRS. COWERD AND MISS WOMACK SCORE SUCCESS

Mrs. Mary Cowherd and Miss Louise Womack, who are giving a a-series of concerts, are meeting with brilliant suc- cess wherever they are head.
 The Gadsden Times has the follow ing comment of a recent performance given there
 Last evening at the Gadsden theatre cultured and appreciative audience heard Mrs. Mary Cowherd and Louise WOmAek in their initial recital. Much interest had centered about this pro- gram for Gadsden, always appreciative of its own, realized that Louise, through earnest application; combined with natural ability, had done much toward reaching her ultimate goal. Ferns, a concert grand piano and the concert grand harp, formed a fitting background for these artists who so delighted their audience that they would not go at the. close, but called for eneores.
 Especial mention should be made of the versatility Nof Louise, in her solo work, and accompaniments, both on harp and piano. Her rendition of Has sellman's 'Impromptu Caprice" con sidered among harpists the piece i'm mortal and bearing the gold medal com position of the Conservatory of Paris demonstrated her ability, and in her gown of pink chiffon with princess lace and French flowers she was picture of girlish beauty.
 Mrs. Cowherd's work showed to her audience that one can overcome any thing. She is beautiful woman with a wonderful gift, a dramatic soprano. Her Italian number, ''Vissi DArte," from TocSa, displayed her marked pow CT of legatO singing. She is held in such esteem by the entire personnel of Victor Herbert's orchestra that they call her the Dixie Nightingale"
 Mrs. Cowerd is distinguished blonde and last evening her gown of zitite blue crepe with silk honitOn lace was particularly becoming. The next appearance of these two artists will be in AsheVille, N. C., and the good wishes of their many friends go with them, and the memory of beautiful evening will long be remembered.

Chased by occupations, the two largest groups include educational workers and those who have committed authorship. Many of the authors be- long also in other groups, which are superiority in the author group. It seems to be a largely followed custom to rise from everything else into au- thorship. Also the group include writ CTS on technical subjects besid,s obli- ous seekers for self-expression. All this, however. does not alter the relation of vitality to age.
 The age level of production of the Ill authoresses of 12,000 and more books is from IS to 6T for first book and from 36 to S5 for a l4st book. One author published 30 books between 20 and 66, another 30 between 27 and 45, and third 27 between 37 and T6. Of the four authors in the eighties, one started at 35 and one at 36, both con tinuing to publish up to S1; and the two others brought out first books at 4S and followed them with five and seven others respectively. One poetess became articulate at 46 and thereafter perpetraecd 15 volumes.
