Misses Barnes and Kelley. As a contralto. Miss Barnes has never had an equal in concert in this city, and the same may be said of the exceedingly sweet and clear voice of Miss Kelley . The charm of their singing was added to by the lovlineBS of their personality. Professor Kimball is an organist of repute, and his coming was a treat to the music lovers of the city. The organ was in perfect tone and con dition, and the keys were manipula ted by a maBter. The chorus of 100 voices has been trained thoroughly and efficiently, and their rendition of the Choruses was magnificent . , The attendance was large, and the audience was very enthusiastic in its encores to the singers. Each was cal led back as often as they would re spond, . and the enjoyment of their hearers was greatly heightened by the old familiar favorites, "Ben Bolt." and Annie Laurie." These concerts have become a feature that is eagerly look ed forward to by every music lo r ii the city.
