All ure w IN MUSICAL CIRCLES FIUIENDS' MEBTL day at 1 am The mueical season is drawing to a close, and soon will come the time for the annual concerts of instructcers to show what prog- ress their pupils have made during the year. Thcse are events of great interest to the pupil. and their friends, and to the teachers they mean much. Washington has been favored in heving a corps of teachers who have done their work con- scientiously and intelligently, and the re- sults are shown in the rumber of Wash- ington m+n and wcmen who have become prominent in every branch of musical art. There are still a few prominent musical events, however, and the chief of these ts the closing oratorio of the Choral Society, when Mendelssohn's grand composition, “Elijah,” will be given. This will be at Allen’s Grand Opera House next Friday evening, and it is expected that the society will appear to unusually good advantage. The rehearsals have been frequent and well attended, and the majestic choruses will be splendidly sung. The soloists will be El- eznor Meredith of New York, soprano; Ella Cleveland Fenderson of Boston, con- tralto; D. G. Henderson of Boston, tenor, and Ericsson Bushnell of New York, basso. These are people of good reputation, al- though only one of them has ever sung in this city. That cne is Mr. Bushnell, who has sung with the chorals and who Is considered to be the best interpreter of the part of “Eli- jah” in this country. Besides these, the soclety will be assisted by the Philhar- monto Quartet, composed of Mrs, Nellie Wilson Shir-Cliff, Misses Grace McCul- lough, Eleanor Simonds and Florence Sted- ham, and the Apollo Quartet, consisting of Messrs. W. D. McFarland, Perry Turpin, Frank Reeside and Bernard A. Ryan. Both these organizations are well and favorably known here, and the double quartet work in the opera will undoubtedly be admirably sung. The friends of the Choral Society are coming forward in good shape and have determined to make this closing perform- ance one of unusual brilllancy. It is ex- pected that every seat in the large audi- torium will be occupied. Next Tuesdey night the Rubinstein Club, composed entirely of ladies, will give a complimentary musicale at Metzerott’s Music Hall. The membership now numbers about forty voices, all of which are good, and the ladies have been diligently prac- ticIng for this concert under the direction of the leader of the club, Mr. N. DuShane Cloward. The club will be assisted at the musicale hy Miss McEuen, Miss Blanche Yewell, Mr. Cloward and Mr. Melville D. Hensey as so- loists, and also by a male quartet, com- posed of Messrs. Hensey, Gough, Cronin and Asmussen. The program will be well arranged, one of the numbers being the well-known sextet from ‘Lucia di Lam- mermoor.”” The national anthem to be sung at the concert of the new Washington Military Concert Band at Allen’s Grand Opera House tomorrow night has been highly commended, not only as to the lofty and pa- triotic sentiment of the words, but also by musicians for the character of the music, which is in perfect harmony with the poem. Both words and music are by Washingtonians, the former by Mr. John Treanor and the latter by Mr. A. Tregina. Those who have examined the anthem say that it will undoubtedly achieve a wide popularity. Mr. F. Bernardelli and Mr. E. Morelos will give a violin and piano recital at the Brazilian legation next Wednesday even- ing. Both these gentlemen are fine per- formers and play with musicianly feeling. The former, in addition to his musical ability, is also an artist of good reputation, and has quite a large number of pictures on exhibition. Both gentlemen are well known in social and diplomatic circles, and there will undoubtedly be a large attend- ance of the best people at the coming con- cert. Mrs. Thos. C. Noyes sang in Richmond Monday night under the auspices of the Mozart Association of that city and evi- dently scored a success. The Dispatch, in its issue Tuesday, said: “Mrs. Dorothy Noyes, a well-known soprano of Washing- ton, was the recipient of the larger share of the audience’s applause, and was com- pelled to respond to encores after each of her solos, which were admirably rendered. Dr. B. Merrill Hopkinson’s fine baritone voice has been heard here before at the musicales, and it is almost needless to say that he received a repetition of his former warm welcomes last evening.” The birthday of the composer Donizetti being April 8, the Sunday Night Music Club played a program of his operatic composi- tions at the residence of Miss Elsa Ulke, on § street. It included the overtures to “The Daughter of the Regiment” and “Don Pas- quale,” together with excerpts from those operas, ‘La Favorita,” ‘The Elixir of Love,” ‘Lucretia Borgia’’ and “Lucia di Lammermoor.” Miss Bertie Reichenbach gang seven of the prominent arias and cav- atinas, with piano and string accompani- ment, after which they played Schubert's Hungarian Gipsy Divertissement, composed by him while he was living at Count Ester- hazy's (whose daughters he taught),and for whom he composed that music. Interest in this number was enhanced by the fact it was orchestrated by Liszt after Schubert's death as a token of his appreciation of the fidelity with which Schubert had embodied in it the pecullar rythmic and melodic char- acter of the gipsy airs. The members pres- ent were Misses Elsa and Annie Ulke, Re- becca Behrend, Florence Henri King, and Messrs. Ulke, Lovy, Sol Coken and the Phillips brothers.

AFFAIRS IN. - GEORG ETOW Linthicum Students Give a Pleasant | Entertainment. i Many Local Notes of General and Special Interest — Wedding. Bells—Two Funerals. ‘The fourth anniversary entertainment of the Linthicum Students was held last even- ing at Linthicum Hall, and brought forth | the large following of the talented young players, in spite of the warmiess of the weather. The program opened with a one- act comedy, entitled “Wooing in Jest,” which was presented by Mr. Guy V. Col- Ing, Mr. John C. Lewis, Miss Helen Pren- tiss Donohue and Mr. R. Peyton Fletcher. The cast was carried out in excellent style. Mr. E. B. Hay amused the audience with a selection from Whittier, and upon an encore gave a laughable story. Mr. Mil- ton M. Clark, in His imitations, was phe- nomenal. His style of whistling is inimitable, and the audience appreciated his work by con- tinually encoring him. “Mr. Bumble's Court- ship,” an adaptation from “Oliver Twist,” specially arranged for the “Students,” was presented by Mr. J. Barton Miller as the Beadle and Miss Donohue as Mrs. Carney. The costumes were excellent, and the act was the hit of the evening. Both Mr. Miller and Miss Donohue di:played their talent to; excellent advantage. After a splendid so- prano solo of Flagier's, “I Love Her,” was rendered by Miss Lillian Halley, a laughing nonsensicality, entitled ‘An Unwarrantable Intrusion,” was presented by Mr. R. Clin- ton Balinger and Mr. Jas. A. Keliher, which kept the audience in good humor. After the entertainment dancing was inaugurated and continued until midnight. Officers Elected.

Mr. Lewis left fos; his new charge at Salem, Md., where he officiates tomor- row. = Rev. E. H. Nelson, the new minister, is from the Fairfax courtty, Virginia, circuit. He is a young man, unmarried, and an able speaker. He conducts the,services at Mt. Tabor Church tomorrow. |. Pretty Wedding. A quiet, pretty event Thursday evening wos the marriage of Miss Mollie L.

What One Georgetown Man Thinks of the Situation. “I see by your paper,” said a citizen of Georgetown to The Star today, “that the citizens of Georgetown are still complaining of what they term the injustice of Con- gress and the Commissioners in not grant- ing them or a railway company the privi- lege of constructing a road on the piers of the Aqueduct bridge, but they seem to lose sight of the fact that the public is almost universally opposed to such a plan. For many years it has been pointed out to the reople of this city that if they wished to retain the patronage of the‘ Virginia side,’ now rapidly increasing In population, they must procure the erection of a bridge at the Three Sisters, and had the Pennsylva- nia avenue cable line applied the money they are now using in the construction of a so called union depot at the north end of the Aqueduct bridge to the construction of a bridge at the Three Sisters and an ele. trie line to Falls Church ang a branch to Carlin Springs, they would have had the inside track. Having failed to embrace this opportunity they need not be sur- prised to see three-fourths of this patron- age taken from them by a more enter- prising and far-seeing company.” FINANCIAL. 4 WAY 10 WIN a ay WALL, STREET. ly fem is the best.
