Covach, t&t the benefit of th new orphanage. The church' was well filled Th chlef numbers were given by the - Columbian Choral society, aa organisation of 18 voices, under Miss Covach's direction, and whose members sing well together. Their numbers were "Ave Maria" (C. A. Hasten); "Quando Corpus,'1 from "Sta bat Mater" (Rossini) ; and "Gloria" fMniartl. The voices are weu Daiancea and well "trained to sing, in harmony. Especially good was tne--Tjuanao cor pus." William uoniey, tenor, was- ine soloist with the chorus In the first num ber, and sang well. The other soloists were -Mrs." Rose Coursen i Reed,- contralto: Dora - J. Zan, baritone, and Frank O. Elchenlaub, vio linist. Mrs. Reed's number was Luzei's "Ave Maria" Her low notes were beau tiful, hut her voice in general was not in aa good form as usual, probably because she had . been putting . in - ner evening singing the service at anotner cnurcn. Mr. Zan sang "In Thee, O God, Do I Put My Trust" (Spicker). and his rich barl inn, ammrleri iinuanallv well. Mr. Elch enlaub played the "Preislled" and "Even- Ing Star Bong" rrom wagner, ana me Bach aria for the G atrlng. The last number was his best, as his tones were there better sustained. ' . Mr. Goodrich waa at the organ, and did some good - accompanying and 'hla preludes were good,- The postlude waa the "Hallelujah?' musio from "The Mes siah," which, to 1 my mind.
