His triumph was 8lg nal though there were few there to witness It Mr. Wttherspoon has a delightful air of informality that wins his audience easily and gives birth to a feeling of mutual understanding, an air that suits him for that most delightful of musical pletlng his opening numbers, both no " juumo juaccauaeus aria and the beautiful "Evening Star Snnir" from Tinnfcum. k af knows, rom his position - of formality .i.m "uit mr permission to pre face his songs with remarks and expla nations.

All were at one with the singer and it seemed that they were talking with him, and they certainly were feeling with him. It is an art to be able to take hold of an audience that way. The next number was a selection from "Figaro sparkling with humor and teasing and tossed off In a lively, taunt ing manner that brought the house. The next group was a collection of German songs of the old ballad style, the later heroic song, and the newer realistic music represented by Strauss and Hans Hermann. One might say that Wither spoon Is at his bext ' in the German lieder only that when he sings 'any thing else he seems at his best in that. But Schubert's ghost song was sung with such splendid tragedy, the Schu mann wall of a heartsick soul with such depth of pain; Schumann's "Knabe mlt dem wunderhorn" with such t air of camaraderie; the Ha lie "Walrtenaam keit" with such daintiness that each was a perfect bit. In1 that group was Hans Hermann's dreamy "Helle Nacht"' so beautifully sung that it had to be repeated, but no number was better done than Strauss' "Im Spatboot," hard to sing and beau tiful to hear, with a wonderful accom- fianlment of the boat's motion excel ently done by Mrs. Witherspoon at the piano. Dainty, too, was her moonlight accompaniment of the Hermann num ber. A second Hermann number. "The Three Comrades," was sung in English with splendid tone color. The English group following incluied one of his best songs, "The Pauper's Drive," done with Intensity, and with a rapid and splendid change from the Devil-mSy-care to the God-does-care mood. A delightful pastorale and Her man Lohr's fine "Messmates" were well sung, The French group, though well sung, was not so popular, merely be cause the songs did not. appeal quite so readily as the others. A Bizet song of food fellowship caught hold the best, he old songs from Britain went charm ing, but when the singer struck into a catching Irish brogue and sang two aonas from the unland and th middle of 'Ireland, there were many that thought he was from ould Ireland hlm sel', and the delight broke into an open laugh. Mr. Witherspoon was warmly en cored and repeated several songs and gave by request "Mother o' Mine," for which he is famous. Other encores were "Memory," by Edna Park, and "Annie Laurie." Throughout his work was characterised by a lack of the usual "bellowing" quality of the basso, and there was no attempt to roll about on the lower notes to show his depth of voice. Rather, most of his work was done In the middle register and his upper notes developed some surpris ingly sweet, pure tones of almost tenor quality. His pianissimo was as dainty as of lighter voices, and when his lowest notes were sounded they were rich and round and mellow. Withal his stage presence, his charming afr of ln-J lormamy, nis sincerity and his pleas ure in his own work made It. a delight ful recital." Mrs. Witherspoon accompanied him with sympjuhyand understandlnr. She was equal to the most difficult part of her task. At a request from Mr. With erspoon for aid, several in the audience prevailed on Mrs. Warren Thomas tt R? t0 rostf,um to turn tn pages h tha rapid accompaniments.
