brilliant and beautiful Inhabitants of
the oceans and rivers, which have been

AN ARTISTIC TRIUMPH
DELIGHTFUL PROGRAM OP DRAMA
AND MUSIC.
Ecb Performer Scored a Personal Hit
and Encores Wen Repeatedly
Demanded ty Audience.
The recital at Fisher's opera house
last night was a succers, both from an
artistic and ilnaneial standpoint. It
would be difficult to single vat any
one of the contributors to the delight
ful program as d-s-;rvlng of greater
mention than the others, but there wi 1
surely be no llsa.tit.rs to the congratu
lation received by Mrs. J. T. Ro up
on the successful .-occlusion of the af
fair. She has been the dominant spirit
of the enterprise and had vnueh to do
with its planning, in addition she gave
freely of her own vocal talents and
th" encore which the audience demand
ed, with an enthusiasm that refused to
be plucitej with a bowing acknowi-ciig-m'nt,
evidenced her personal tri
umph as well as the recital's success.
The opening nmotxr was a clarinet
solo by Mr. George Price, "La Travl
tlna." by Verdi. Mr. Price was as
ulsiid b the Columbia orchestra. The
first chorus number, "Hark. Hark My
Soul," by Shelly, presented Mlss.s Hob
son ar.d Fost.-r, Mesdame J. T. Ross
am: C. L. Hotuton. and Messrs. Ros,
Hirr, Thornton and Garner. Mrs. C.
R. Hip-gins played the accompaniment.
Whlh; the applause was liberal and
sincere it was evident that the audience
whs anxiously awaiting the solo num
bers and Mrs. Ross was heartily wel
comed wh-n she arrpeared to sli.g,
"Star of Love." accompanied by the
Columbia orchestra. In responding
to the encore, Mrs. Ross sang
"My Old Kentucky Home," and
the popular old melody appealed to th-
audl nie as old songs will. Mrs. Ross'
two other numbers were delightful,
particularly the "Salute a la France,"
with ringing martial measures. Pre
ceding It was a dainty, charming lit
tle lullaby by Vannah.
Mr. MoKean was. as always, artis
tic an l excellent. His first monologue.
Bret Harte's "Luke," was splendidly giv
en. His costumes were In keeping with
the characters and there Is no necessity
nt this time of exploiting his art. As
