"Winger and MisB Stoddard werechann iagly entertained on Friday evening at a musicals and reception. Miss Treat, Mrs. E. Lewis Baker. Mies Silence-Dales and Mre. P. V. M. Raymond asiistsd with the program. The guests w.re comfortably seat;d in the four rooms which are to conven cntly arranged that the mueiciana could be seen by all. Un der a bower of tall palms which grace fully lent their green leaves for a back ground stood the soloisls. The delicate fronds rested lightly on the head of the tail eineer suggesting the laurel crowns of the Romans. The program was very short and it was heard by a company of friends who found nothing but enjoyment in each umber. The duets between Miss Treat and Mrs. Baker were a decided surprise in the haraoLious blending of voices trained to such opposite methods of vocalization. Those near the singers missed the bast effects of these number?, for at a little distance it was often diffi cult to distinguish where one voice nded and the other bsgan a strain. Miss Treat and Mrs. Baker not only illustrated two distinct schools of sing ing but were also contrasts in intensity. The charm of Miss Treat's voice lies in its sweetness, gayety and ligbtsomenese, which appeal strongly to a troubled world, but it lacks that sympathy with life learned through experience. Only a few of the greatest souls, like Bordello, feel subjectively life's inmo3t tbrobs,and to their delicate sensibilities joy is tad dened. If bought with the price of gladness, why seek for the note of ex perience? Mrs. Baker has been seldom heard in Lincoln during the past few years, and her powerful contralto voice had the charm of novelty for many. Her great dramatic gittc, capable of becoming passion, rendered her numbor, "Mamma Dice," most brilliant. Her encore, "Dearest Heart Farewell,'' was .inter preted with much feeling. Miss Silence Dales in her violin num bers shows a steady gain at each ap pearance, not only technically, but what is of even more importance, in the soul f ul quality of her playing. . All the numbers found equal apprecia tion and were enthusiastically encored. Mrs. P. V. M. Raymond at the piano was not the least important member on the program though her name comes last. In the social hour which followed an added pleasure was given the guests in the opportunity of meeting the members of the Maximilhan Dick Concert com pany, who were able to be present. The "Order of Melody," as it waB quaintly worded, was as follows: Duet "Love Shall Guide Thee'' C. A. White A,is3 Treat and Mre. Baker.

A wild phriek rang out on the night air. "Leave me." she cried. "Not exactly," said tho highwayman. "I will relieve you," and he proceeded to take her watch, her pocketbook and such jewelry as he could find.
