The room was tilled to overtlowing with the guests who re sponded to the invitations of the club. The program passed otr most smoothly and was of just the right length, and as no encores are allowed by the club, no one was wonied by too much harmon ious sound. The program was opened by the Ladies' Chorus of the Matinee Musicale in Hawley's "Spring Son?." This was the first appe rarce of the chorus, and much of its success in smoothness and tinish is due to the com petent direction of Mrs P. V. M. Ray mond. Mips Silence Dales gave a violin number. Prume's "La Melancholie." charmingly, and afterwards played an obligate t) Mrs. Lippincott's solo. Three vocal numbers besides the chorus were on the program. 'rs. E. Lewis Baker baa been requested to sing Ver di's Romanze from -'II Corsaro." which is especially suited to her tine contralto voice, and she was also heard to advan tage in the trio Barcarolle, by Campana with Mrs. Jensen and Mrs. Watkins. This number, though last, awakened most enthusiastic applause, and many thought it the gem of tho evening, as the three fine voices were so well bal anced in power, and tho song was ren dered with a vivacity and stylo betoken ing trained musicians. The soprano eo- people of Lincoln which Mrs. Lippin cott for so long has held, will not soon be tilled by enother, for her power over her hearers lies not eo much in her sweet voice, but in tho intense individ uality and spirit of the singer imparted to her songs, which brings her into that close touch with an audience to which .milder musician cannot attain. Three well known pianists gave charm ing numbers: Mrs. Herzog a beautiful etudo by Meyer, and the "Morris Dance," by German; Mis3 Schotield two beautiful selections, "Romance from Tannhauser," Wagner, and Schubert's "Auf dem Wasser zu Singen," both arranged by Liszt: while Mrs Will Owen Jones played three of the dainti est, sweetest numbers, "Hark, Hark the Lark," Schubert-Liszt. "Lullabye," Nevin. and a "Valse" by Carreno, all pre-eminently suited to her exquisite touch and style. and reaching the hearts of her hearers in a way impossible to the more brilliant intellectual treats with which she has favored the public of late. A sprightly Moszkowski Valse by a quartet composed or 'rs. Barbour. Miss A. L. Miller. Mrs. Mitchell and Mrs. Winger, which has become a prominent feature or tho club, closed the list of numbers on an eqtremely attractive program.
