Secretary. Publicists are still trying to elim inate the hyphen in all America—ex cept the Afro-Americans. Why not eliminate the hyphen for all the na tions? Why leave any hyphenated in the land of the free and the home of the brave? A PLEASING RECITAL. We are naturally a race of music lovers, and Thursday night at the recital of Miss Allie Freeman, un der the auspices of the Negro Wom en’s Christian association, we demon strated this fact to ourselves. The women of the association deserve a great deal of praise. They have set a standard in high class entertain ment which the people of Omaha should not lower. Every number on the program was well given and well received. Miss Freeman, who is the niece of Mr. R. W. Freeman, rendered a difficult program with ease, and a fine ap preciation of the music. Among the numbers given by her was “Let Us Cheer the Weary Traveler,” a selection composed by an artist of our own race, Samuel Coleridge Taylor. The others taking part in this re cital were Miss Darlene Duval, a mez zo soprano with a voice of volume and sweetness; Mr. Rufus Long, who sings a rich baritone; Miss Irene Cockran, a soprano, rendered a solo, “When the Heart is Young,” which was exceptionally well received, and Prof. J. W. Bundrant gave, by re quest, an excellent reading, “The Murderer,” from Poe. The program follows: 1— Cavalier Artisque.Godaru A Dream Love .Litz Miss Allie B. Freeman. 2— Solo—“Oh, Eyes That Are Weary” .Brackett Miss Darlene Duval. 3— Solo—“Sing Me to Sleep”. . Greene Mr. Rufus Long. 5— Poet and Peasant—(Overture) (a) Song of the Moonflower .
