Aninri.nn music raised to the nth
degree of perfection presented ouly
as the niv.sic-lovinp, colored man can
give it, with tho rhythm and swing
banded down to him from bis fore
bears as an Inherent gift, was the
presentation given to the Ashland'
audience by these singers and play
ers lasf night. A nicely adjusted
"balance" gave all music-lovers Just
what they wanted. A hair-raising,,
shoulder-joint loosening "jazz" that
set the iuet of the younger set to!
tapping, and made the blood tingle
In youthliil veins, wwuld be immedi
ately followed by a selection with as
fine a toil!) and in tsn delicate a man-
; ner as can bo heard by any symphony
! orchestra.
1 The two quartets were among the
! unusual aod highly pleasing features.
Tho folk-lore songs with their ap
pealing strains of negro spirituals
and plantation melodies originating
in the southern cotton fields were
particularly true to type. The ap
pealing plnintiveness has been pre
served and these up to the minute
artists have brought them back in a
program' of perfect" melodic har
mony. !
The solo work, both instrumental
and vocal, was exceptional, bringing
out the wonderf III skill of professional
players and siegers aided" by the na
tive harmony of this moslc-lOTing
people. Their music was an exhibi-
tioh of what technical skill could
produce coming from the sheer beau-
ty und spontanoous joy these peoplo
get from the mre doing. Tblsvas
expressed in the exquisite violin sp
los by Clarence Lee, the marvelous
trombone soloist, William Dover; the
whirlwind drum soloist, Wllljam Ber-:
tra ml, and the haunting sweetness of
the tenor soloist, James A. Lillard. j
On uccount of the unavoidable de-j
lay of lust-night the management
of the musical aggregation has ar
ranged to stay over tonight and will
again present a concert in the ar-j
mory. This will be a complete
change of program but one equally!
as good as that presented last night,
with the tedious wait eliminated and
every one will be ln better trim to,
respond to the wondertul music that
will be provided. I

MEMORY OF DEAD
If the beautiful sentiment ex
pressed In Maeterlinck's "Blue Bird"
be true that the dead awake when
ever mortals thing of them, then
the absent brothers who have fallen
from the ranks of Elkdom were with
those who gathered at the Temple
yesterday to revere their memory.
On the lodge register among the
honored deatd appear the names of
eleven members who have (lied with

Joseph P. Hendricks, George N. Clray
nnd Herman F. Pohland.
A beautiful service marked the
commemorutlon of the dead. This
was opened with a march by an or
chestra and tho rltuulistlc service by
the members. Miss Isabell Barron
sang a beautiful vocal solo, "Lulla
by," after which the roll of the
departed wbb called by the secretary,
and Fred C. Homes gave a fitting
eulogy on "Our Departed Brothers.'
The memorial address delivered by
Prof. I. E. Vlnlng was most inspir
ing, in which he feellngjy dwelt upon
the loving fellowship of the order
which even death cannot break. Other
splendid, musicat numbers were a
violin solo by Leonard Peltlt, "Ave
Maria," and a vocal solo, "Hear Vs
0 Father," by Mrs. Henry Provost.
An unusually large attendance of
members and citizens were at the
services yesterday.
