GREAT MUSICAL EVENT To Be Hold on April 18' and 19 at Greenwood-Renownqd Singers -Greenwood Has Guaran teed Large Amount. The Choral Festival which is to be held in Greenwood on the i8th and 19th of April is exciting no little in terest locally. It is thought that a large crowd will go from here to take advantage of the great opporttnity offered to hear some great smiging by some equally as great a-rtists The railroads will grant low rates, and the schedule is so arranged that those who intend going to Greenwood in April may do so at little inconvenience, in asmiuchas practically all of the three performances may be taken in, allow ing the busy men to retuni home easily in time for opening business. From all that can be learned, the Choral Festival in Greenwood will be a great event for this section, and the people of that little city have at a great expeisc to themselves, secured somne well known artists to sing there. They are busily engaged making prep aratiois for the great event, and the three concerts-which will be given as follows: Wednesday night, Thursday afternoon and Thursday night--will be well attemled. People all over the section are contemplating attending. And it is well, too, for not often does the opportunity present itself ;or lovers of music--and by great' artists. too--to hear and attend an event of such magnitude. The chorus which will sing will be composed of one htndred and forty five well trained voices-a fact, in it self, which wvill prove a great drawing card. Then, in a great measure add ing lustre to the musical event, are the renowned singers from the west who have, at a great price, been se cured to sing at Greenwood. It costs no little outlay of money to induce a singer of national and worldwide rep utation to sing, and the people of Greenwood realize this fact. The seat sale was opened last week in the store of S. C. Ilodges to whom all letters should be addressed. In order to secure the choicest seats in the house a great number have already been sold but those in charge are urging the people to secure seats at once, so that those who attend will get the best places. The prices of admission are only seventy five cents for each performance while the sea son ticket-entitling the holder to the three performances for only two dol rars. This is regarded very moderate for the high class of singing to be had. Greenwood congratulates herself upon securing some of the most re nowned artists in the country. Among the miniber are Genevieve Clark Wil son sopranr, Harriet Frahm, contralto H. Aug. Smith, tenor and Gustaf Hol unist bass. WVit h the grand chorus of 14t5 voices these wvill present such an array of musical tailent as hats nev er before been seeni iln this section. All of thtem will come to Greenwood in April with a reputation well earned withl vo ices well kinownt and.apphreciat - e;anid on Thursday iight, the 19th -which is Armtists Night-will dlelighit a large audience which has already sigillIed its intention of coming. S. C. I lodges of Greenwvood who is in charge of the tickets and can furnish any information, states that the seat sale has b)een more than gratifying and that the 'only way to secure the best locatiins in the auditorium is to write for them now. G;ENEIEVE CLARK WILSON So prn namie is too familiar to the musical public to call for extensive dletails of her achievements. D)uring the eight seasons wvhich Mrs. Wilson has devot ed to public singing she has broaden INSS HRRIET FRAH . Conta't ed in her art until she is recognize< throughout the country as one of th< foremost of American singers. Every where, under varied coniitions, fron single solo numbers to long and sus tained oratorio roles and recitals, she has met with unbounded success There is not a prominent orchestra in the country with which Mrs. Wilsor has not appeared, and her career is significent in the many re-engage ments made by the various clubs und. er whose auspices she appears. M[iss. Frahm has a phenominal voice Seldom does one hear a contraltc whose range is so even and whose high tones are so clear. She has just completed a tour with the Rosen beck. I er Orchestra, which has won fam< for her over the nliddle west. Miss Frahn't set forth in-a contraltc V(oice well modulated and resonani the word of the Annunciation. Ever better advantage was offered her beautiful and powerful voice in the declaration of the Messiah's ministry singing, "The lame shall leap and the tongue of the dumb shall sing." 164' MR. GUSTAF HOLMQUIST Basso Mr. Gustaf Holmquist has won th< admiration of his listeners every where. His wonderful range, togeth ler with flexibility and a thorougl understanding of his work account for the success that invariably attend. I r. Hilmquist's efforts. This riel :1id powerful voice receives recog nition from any audience; but therc is a charm of manner to the artis which adds greatly to the singing. Last year at Sioux Falls, Iowa, Ma) Festival this comment was made o his work in "Elijah." "Superlative, only can be used in expresing our en joyment of Mr. Holnquist's wor< The most intense feeling was how, in his rendition of "It is Enough." Mr. H. Augustine Smith needs n< introduction to the people of thiE section. ie possesses a suberb voic< of wonderul brilliancy and power and great range. Those who heard hi: recital last year will not soon forgel his lyric voice, because the progran was one that none but an artist coukd successfully give. The power of interpretation is Mr ISmith's greatest gift as a singer. This is 110 disparagement of his voice, :: melow, vibrant tenor, free froir throatiness and untrammeled by "method."' But better than his organ is his musiial app)reciation and insight intc the composer's thought; his serious ness of purpose, which makes him work; his intenisity of utterance, whiclh masters his audiences and holds them to the song of the moment, be it thc "Messiah," the "RedeAkption," "Hia watha's Wedding Feast," or the simplc Scotch songs or oprea excerpts which1 illumine his recital programmes. We have know tne be and have pi them- THE C versible Disc THE MUSIC. The Festival will consist of Abt's "Summer," Braga's "Angel's "Serenade," Lohr's "Swing Song," Veasie's "Spring Invitation," by the chorus club. Gaul's "Holy City," by chorus and Oratorio clubs, assisted solists. "Persian Garden" and groups of solos by the artists. THE ARTISTS. Greenwood congratulates herself that she has secured such artists as Genevive Clark Wilson, Harriet Frahm, H. Augustine Smith, and Gus taf Holmquist. These Chicago artists are well known to the musical world. REVOLVING CUSHION CRAIR The Stenographer of Tenth Circuit Provided With Comfortable Furniture. Court Stenographer Long can now work more comfortably in Greenville than at other court house in the Tenth circuit. County Supervisor Walker has provided for him a big flat-top, panelled library desk, of pol ished oak, with plenty of elbow room and a dozen drawers for stationery, not to speak of a revolving cushioned chair. None of the circuits has a bet ter stenographer, or one who daily sacrifices more time and coif6t in the service of attorneys and other court attendants. Everybody who has seen his good work was glad of'the action of the recent general askembly in raising the salaries of the court stenographers fron $1,200 to"$1,500. The above is from the Greenville News. Mr. Long is a former Newber rian and we are glad to note his popu larity and the good things lie is re Whei Newberry gets her nice new court house she will have nice com fortable things for all the court oli cials, including the jurors.

If the government taxed men in a whole year for keeping people clean and healthy what they will spend in one night on an after-theatre supper there would be a revolution.

Some women are never so happy as when they get a chance to tell of the trouble they have with hired girls.
