His rendition of "The Chariot Rice," from Bon Hurr, showed a marked ability in transforming the orowded amphitheatre, the excited crowd, tho restive steods, the prominent oharaoters, tho exciting race it-self;' from tho cold pages of the book into an almost living reality.

In our opinion his rank is up with Ralph Bingham and Edwin L. Barker. Notice of Pension Commissioner.
