From the talent already en^nsjed we can he certain that we shall have exceeding ly popular and pleasing entertain ments which will appeal to every body. We shall be enabled to have the very best singers, instrumental ists and lecturers to be found on the concert platform in America. In or der to indicate the general excellence of this course we need to mention only the artists who will appear at the first concert: Mary Louise Clary, John Cheshire and Celia Schiller. Mary Louise Clary, without doubt America’s Greatest Contralto, sang in New York City recently and the leading critic wrote, “She has a voice which is not heard thrice in a life time.” In Chicago she was heard in the "Messiah,” and “she swayed the audience, emotionally, at will. There is a kindliness, bo to speak, io her singing that wins, independ ently of the force of art. Her bold on her hearers is supreme.” In Lou isville, /‘There was not onewbo did not enthusiastically endorse the ver dict of the Eastern press and public, that Miss Clary is the greatest of all American contraltos.” And so forth; she is great. John Cheshire is England’s most eminent harpist, and beyond doubt the greatest harp virtuoso of the day. “Mr. Cheshire’s reputation is Europ ean, for he stands on heights which only genius can reach.” Mr. Ches hire has played in ail of the princi pal cities of Europe and America, and at every appearance has been greeted with rapturous applause. Celia Schiller has played the piano in Washington with “highly artistic success,” according to the Washing ton Star. In New Orleans she “cre ated a furor.” All of these artists will appear in the Limestone College Auditorium, Thursday evening, Jan uary 9. Tickets can be secured at the college, or of Mrs. Geo. G. Byers, Mr. Isham Richardson, or Mr. Char lie Humphries. MRS. HATTIE WATKINS.
