“BELSHAZZAR’S FEIST’
That Cottage (.ro ve people appreciate a
good thing and are ditqiosed to encourage hical
effort was clearly demonstrated by the large at
tendance at the armory hall last night to witness
the first production in this city of the great dra
matic cantata “ Belshazzar's Feast,” which was
presented by about fifty o f the liest singers of
the town, liesides aliout twenty-five high school
girls who executed the drills in a most admir
able manner, which alone was worth the price
of admission. Considering the fact that the
chorus, the soloists and the drill girls had less
than two weeks to leant and present their re
spective roles, they all done exceedingly well
and everyone in attendance went home well
pleased with the entertainment. Th e prospects
are good for a larger attendance this evening
than on the first night, many having expressed
their intention of attending a second time, while
a great many remained at home 011 account of
the heavy rains. Much of the credit for the
splendid manner in which the united chorus and
soloists did their work is due to the efficient dril
ling and training of Prof. Martin 15. Robinson,
the director, and there is not a memlier of the
large cast but what feels amply repaid for their
efforts and laliors by the splendid course of in
structions and training they haveTreceived.
This article would not lie complete without
mention of some of the sjiecial work in the cast
and in this connection we want to say that J. m .
I sham interpreted the role of King Helshazzar
admirably.
He has a strong, rich baritone
voice and g<xxl articulation, hence his solo work
was most pleasing.
Mrs. J. (1. Van W in k le, a squ een , won uni
versal praise for the excellent manner in which
she sustained this prominent role. She has a
strong, clear, and sweet soprano voice and her
difficult solos were executed with ease and in a
most pleasing manner.
Dr. J. <1. Van W in kle, as Daniel, inter
preted his difficult role with much credit to him
self and sung the high tenor solos in a most
gratifying manner.
Mrs. H . O . Thompson, as lady of the court
executed the pretty alto solos in a most pleasing
maimer, her voice lieiug particularly adapted to
this role. She received much praise for her
good work.
Clarence Mores, as I.ord of the court, car
ried out his part well and demonstrated the fact
that he has a good tenor voice and is not afraid
to use it.
Miss Maude lilair as the Jewish maiden,
won the highest compliments in her very impres
sive contralto solo at the side of the sleeping
Daniel.
Her voice is rich and mellow ami her
pose was excellent.
T*. II. Hall, as the high priest, made a
splendid character and his heavy bass voice was
well adapted to his solo role.
lie done well.
Mrs. Harry Hrehaut, as the angel, in the
call to arms solo, won the admiration o f all.
She lias a splendid soprano voice, which she dis
played to good advantage.
The Jewish maidens duet by Misses Mary
Mtmdy and Nora Heebe was fine, as was also
the Jewish maidens trio bv Mesdames Hattie
Hart, \V. C. Conner and A . Hruud.
C.« S. Cochran as Cyrus, King of 1’ersia,
presented a fine apjiearaiice as did also the four
little ladies as the k in g ’ s cup liearers and the
two little tots as queen's train bearers.
In fact
the cast, with its georgeous gowns was well sus
tained all the way through, and too much credit
cannot lie given Miss t'.eorgetta Herg, who pre
sided at the piano in such a proficient manner in
the solos, drills and chorus.
Her task was
great, but she performed it well.
