His ploying proved him to be a thorough musician, his al understanding excelling even| good execution. The work of Mr. Hart on the piano was possibly the most noticeable to| the musical experts in the sometimes almost spectacular rendering of the most difficult passages of the works presented. Worthy of especial com- ment was Mr. Hart's performance in the last number, Mendelssohn's “First Movement Trio Opus 49.”" In it Mr. Hart displayed an earnest study of the work, a resulting sym- pathy with the theme and an exact- ness and perfection of execution truly remarkable. The trlo became a piano solo to the fine, submerged ac- companiment of violin and cello in the hands of Mr. Anderson and Mr. Schauffler.

The combina- | tion gave the effect of a dramatic| performance the interest in which was intensified by interspersed music of a fine orchestr Miss Sage represented the many characters of the play with no indi- cation, other than a change of man- rer, voice or gesture, what character was supposed to be speaking.
