A Delightful Mufthal I’rograin Delighfully lteu<lere<l. Tuesday evenint' the Limestone Musical Club gave its first public concert in the college auditorium. The club is a most praise-worthy or ganization, composed of the best mu sicians in the city and college. They are banded together for the purpose of serious study of the great com posers and their works, thus planting more deeply within themselves the love and appreciation of all that is great and good in music. This concert brought forward some of the best pianists and vocalists in a well selected and admirably arranged program. Misses McArthur, Jones and Steedly appeared as piano solo ists. This was the first appearance of Misses McArthur and Jones before a (iallney audience and they both proved themselves excellent pianists interpreting their numbers in a mu- sicianly manner. Miss Steedly is al ways a favorite with a Gaffney audi ence and her work here, as one pre vious occasions, gave great pleasure Miss Griffith and Mr. Brown played for the opening number Brahm’s Waltze? in a finished and artistic manner. Misses McArthur, Jones, Griffith and Corry gave Schubert’s March Militaire for the closing number. It is a brilliant march movement and they gave it an inspiring perform ance. The vocul part of the program brought forward Gaffney’s best known singers. Both Miss Carroll and Mrs. W'estrope have oflen been beard here, but their well trained voices never fail to give pleasure. Mrs. Gaffney was to have appeared as soloist hut owing to a cold was prevented from doing so. Kspecial mention must be made of liotoli’s trio ‘‘Forget me not,” sung by Miss Carroll. Mrs. Copeland, and Mrs. Gaffney, whose voices blend ed beautifully and which they sang charmingly. Mrs. Grace Battis Brown also ap peared as soloist and her fine voice, which she so well knows how to use, gave great pleasure. The encore “Daddy,” which she so soulfully sang, visibly affected many in the audience. By general request Mr. and Mrs. Brown added to the program Dennee’s “Oh moment that I bless,” which was so well received at the first teacher's recital. The audience was lavish with its applause, many of the numbers being encored, and the concert evidently gave much pi isure to all present. Contract la-t.
