tumesiof the ladies of the reception com
mittee and of the jounger members act
ing as ushers, added much to the gay
ity of the scene. 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.

bachelor and a benedict Pa?
