From the Louisville Post. “I was in a little backwoods town, not over three hundred miles away, three weeks ago,” said Willis Bowen, the carpet tack and egg beater drummer, “and the slot machine had just struck the hamlet a few days before. That the little gam- bling device had struck the villagefolk also will be seen when my tale is concluded. A local druggist had been to Cincinnati, and while there rented the ‘nickel-winner,’ thinking he would introduce the very new- est thing out in his home town. The mr chine drew like a porous plaster, and a: result the receptacle for cash was 80 running over. But the inexplainable pt. of its operations was that only one indl- vidual nad ever turned a winning hand. The day I reached Breakton the worm turned, and a committee of losers had waitec on the slot machine tor for the purpose of notifying him it either he or the machine must quit business. Everybody had gone broke, and it was said the Sunday schcol treasurer had dis- Soren ane anaisiot searing ae popular in Breakton now, and it probably will not be again,” * -The Varnum 217 A st. ne.

Saltsman and William de Ford gave a fine presentation of the opera “Tolanthe,” with their pupils and friends, before a large and enthusiastic audience, in the marble theater at the Soldiers’ Home, Friday evening, January 14. The performances was progounced by the .man- agers of the home to be the finest which has visited there in a long time. In ap- preciation of the faithful and efficient work done by the ladies and gentlemen of the company, Profs. Saltsman and*de Ford have arranged a benefit performance in their honor February 4 in National Rifles’ Armory. The costuming and stage effects will” be on the same elaborate plan which characterized its first production. Mr. Forrest D. Carr, formerly of this city, has accepted the position of bass soloist at the Brick Church in New York city, which 1s one of the best paying posi- tions there. Last Thursday night he sang the bass part in Grieg’s “Olav Trygvason” in Albany with the choral society. Febru- ary 17 he will sing in Detroit with Mile. Verlet, Bloodgood and Van Yort. This shows that Mr. Carr does not dack for en- gagements. The Concert Opera Club has now made final arrangements concerning the concert to be given by the club at Hyattsville, and the date decided on is the 17th of February. Rehearsals are now going on under the direction of Miss Lulu Facius at the rooms of Sanders & Stayman every Tuesday even- ing. Besides four choruses to be rendered by the club, some of the prominent mem- bers will take part.in the program. There is every prospect of the concert being quite a success. Cards are out for a pupils’ musicale by the pupils of Professors H. E. Saltsman and William de Ford this evening, in their studios, 934 F street. This .will be the first musicale given in their new quar- ters, which are much larger and more adapted for entertaining a large audience. A fine program has been arranged and an enjoyable evening is anticipated. Miss Edna Scott-Smith is in Portsmouth, N. H., with her parents, but will return to Washington about the middle of March. While in Portsmouth, Miss Smith has ap- peared at several concerts and her voice and method have been highly praised. At a recent concert she sang two selections, one from “Il Giuramento” and the other from the “Huguenots,” and the Chronicle of that city said that “her rich and finely trained contralto voice was heard to splen- did advantage in both her selections. She received a very cordial reception an@ her brilliant rendition of the difficult ‘Giura- mento’ selection earned her an enthusiastic encore, to which she responded with De Koven’s lovely Scotch ballad, ‘My Haime is Where the Heather Blooms.’ The selection from Meyerbeer’s masterpiece was charm- ingly sung and was also rewarded with a recall". The Times was equally compli- mentary, saying: ‘Her voice is rich, full and very sweet, such a voice as one never tires of hearing, and possesses exquisite tenderness and purity. In response to an encore she gave a charming Scotch ballad without accompaniment, and the simple song revealed even more clearly the bea tiful voice of the favorite singer.” There will be an organ recital at the Church of the Reformaticn tomorrow night. The organist, Mrs. Nettie McFar- land Barry, will be aided by the «pollo Quartet, Messrs. McFarland, Reeside, Tur- n. The program will be as march, Scotson Clark; quartet; organ, prelude and fugue, B flat, 3ach; tenor solo, W._D. McFarland; quar- tet; barytone solo, F. P. Reeside; organ, “Thais,” Massenet; quartet: organ, * neral March of a Marionette," Gounod., - McKendree Church was well filled with a ‘fashiot.able and appreciative audience last Tuesday evening at a musical and lit- erary recital. The program opened with Ascher's “Fanfare Militaire,” oy the Men- delssann Club, composed of Messrs.-Irving Spedcen, Allan M. D. Schlerf and Chas. Haydn Chas This club has been but re- cently organized, and is the only club of piano trio players in the city. Mr. Herman Bredekamp dered selections from Gou- nod’s “Faust” in a finished style. The lit- erary part of the program was furnished by Miss Anna B. Gray, Mr. Robert B. Ke- gerries and Miss Jessie Marion Smith, and each was obliged to respond to an encore. The piano numbers by Miss Grace C. Story were effectively played, her selections be- gs “Soirees de Vienne,” by Liszt, and “Zweite Romanze,” by Schuman. Miss Story is a young lady well known in mu- sical circles as a pianiste of much prom- ise, both as to technique and expression. A delight{yl number was rendered by Miss Elizabeth ahly, soprano, the soprano at McKendree, and her voice never sounded to better advantage. Miss Cowling per- formed several numbers on the violin in excellent style. Especially in the “Ober- tass,” by Wienlawski, did she show the: perfect control she possessed over her in- strument. The song of Pinsuti, “I Fear No Foe." was sung by Mr. Duffy in un- usually fine bass voice. Mr. Duffy is in all probability the youngest basso in the city, and his voice has much depth of quality and power. A unique part of the pro- gram were the imitations of lower animal life by Prof. N. R. Wood of the National Museum. The Lawrence School of Music and Elo- cution, Prof. George Lawrence director, presented a fine program of music and reci- tation Friday evening at the Recital Hall, 127 10th street northwest. The school was a: ‘ted by Miss May Myrtis Clemons, elocutionist of the school, and Prof. Law- rence. The pupils all displayed their tal- ent, and rendered their numbers in a man- ner which delighted the large and enthu- siastic audience present. The participants in the program were Columbia Glee Club, Master Edward Scala, Miss May Myrtis Clemons, Miss Agnes Jordan, Prof. George Lawrence, Miss F. A. Prescott, Miss Elste Jordan, Mrs. Hattie Smith, Miss Gertrude Peach, Mrs. E. Marceron, May Higgs, Mrs. Mabel Giffin, Miss Rosa Brunet, Miss Cop- perthwaite, Miss Gertrude Brown, Miss Margaret Treakle and Mrs. George Law- rence. Those taking part in the program of Mrs. Oldberg’s last two Thursdays were Miss Von Nerta, a fine mezzo soprano, from the Berlin Conservatory; Mrs. Andrew Coyle, whose sympathetic voice is so much enjoyed; Mrs. Fowler, pi- anist; Dr. Zlegfeldter, assistant at the Chicago College of Music; Mr. Theo- dore Maurice; Mr. H. P. Hoover, whose voice is so well placed and musical; Mr. Frank P. Reeside, Mr. B. Frank Gebest, Mr. William Fay, United States consul in south of Spain, who was a student under the elder Lamperti and San Giovani, and who possesses an unusual baritone as well as great dramatic ability; Miss Schott, ‘cellist, and Mr. Philip Gerry, bass at St. ‘Thomas’ Episcopal Church. Among those calling were Captain and Mrs. Field, Miss Field, Mr. and Mrs. John Joy Edson, Miss Edson, Mr. John Joy Edson, jr.; Mrs. Henry Gannett, Miss Gannett, Mr. William Gannett, Miss Oberly, Miss Portia Oberly, Mr. and Mrs. Henrik Gahn, Miss Louise Zimmerman, Miss Galeski, Mrs. Spauld- ing, Miss Spaulding, Mr. Frankland Jan- nus, Mrs. Cowan, Miss Sara Cameron, Miss Jacobs, Miss Stickney, Mr. and Mrs. Frank L. Browne, Miss Ruth Browne, General and Mrs. E, A. Carmen, Miss Car- men, Mr. and Mrs. Frank P. Reeside, Mr. D. LeRoy Topping and Dr. Edward E. Morse. Mrs. Oldberg has no cards out for these busical evenings, but ts simply at home to those who call. Cards will shortly be out for a piano re- cital at the Sanders & Stayman building on Tuesday evening, February 1, by Miss Virginie Bestor, a pupil of Mr. Gloetzner. Miss Bestor will be assisted by Miss Mary Lockwood, soprano. sie A Woman as Saw Mill Hand. From the Louisville Post. “A brawny weman clad in blue cottonade waist and skirt, who is able to run a saw mill engine.as well as any man in the business, is rether an unusual sight,” sald Walter Wade, “‘but that is just what I saw in a Tennessee woods a few weeks ago. The female engineer's name is -Annie Fables, — ane tae, ay she, naa oo doing a ‘full hand’s’ wor! e mill for six years. Five year’. ago she ‘decided she could run the engiue, and the mill boss told me she had been one of the most care- ful, as well'as one of the most competent he had ever seen. Mrs Fables joey eee husband six years and a half ago, and few months afterward she asked for a place in the mill where*her liege lord had been employed. She began working as an ‘off-bearer,’ and in a year and a half was chinery which furnished motive power for the large circular and straight saws. She has all along earned a man’s wages and has been able to support and her seven fatherless little.ones es AUCTION SAIlES. FUTURE DAYS, THOS. 3. OWEN, AUCTIONEER, 913 F ST. NW. PRESENCE OF MIND.
