U55 ll, lA,lllll,ll__ l.~€b_ of friends. The Hull was crowded

and the audience enjoyed every minute f the two hours recital. Mr. Beers' ability as an elocutionist.

is well known. His selections last

ll , evening showed he is possessed of an

extensive repertory. and were adapt- tl to give full play to his dramatic power of expression. His- contribu- tions consisted of three trilogtes and a reading. *His first trilogy includ-

. p-

H. taking (llc l-ull,-SQ “-9 all. cd "That Old Sweetheart of Mine"

llltiley); "The Spell of the Yukon"

Service); and “Evelyn Hope"

l Browning), and was. calculated to portray his powers of sentimental, dra- matic and pathetic expression. His second trilogy embraced ‘The Mou- arch of the North" (Kendall), de- scriptive, "Gungadin’s" (Kipling), Imirratlvc, and “Waiting” (Burroughs). contemplative. The last trilogy con- lsistcd of "On Death" (Shakespeare). solilonuy, "A Man’s u Man for A' That" ‘ (Burns). Scotch, and “The Reccsslon- al" (Kipling). religious. Needless to say that the audience enjoyed the con- _‘trasts and were enraptured with the dramatic effectiveness of the elocu- lion. Further variety was lent to Mr. Jieers' programme by the masterly rendering he gave to Ingersoll’s in- comparable “Lecture on Shakespeare." The audience will not soon forget the impression which the impressive ren- _derlug of these choice selections left

upon them.

Tile musical programme was cou-

tributed to by Miss Helen A. Hughes. who charmed everyone with selec- tions from Delnqua and Greig which enabled her to show to advantage the magnificent range of her voice and the perfection of its cultivation. Miss Hughes is probably the most accom- pllshed vocalist in Charlottetown, to which sho adds a very pleasing pre-

sence and platform lleportmeut.

ln addition to tbcso thc programme

included a delightful piano solo by Miss Katlo L. Stanley, violin solo by the Rev. F. li. Littlcjohns, and vocal solos by Mr. A. B. uosh and George lt. ll. Beers. The accompanlments were played by Miss Stanley ond Pro-
