GAVE FINE CONCERT Colored Jubilee Singers Delighted Large Audience at Woodman HalL The entertainment given by the Dixie Jubilee Singers under the auspices of the Dallas Public School, at the Woodman.Hall last night, was attended by an exceptionally large crowd and proved to be a complete success in every respect. ine program was composed of choruses, quartettes and solos ranging tnrougn every degree, from the old plantation melodies to the difficult and classical compositions of Cowles and other- modern composers. In its chorus work the company proved to be almost perfect, and the male quar tette is without doubt the best that has ever sung in this oity. Especially fine In the richness of their harmonies were the "Bridal Chorus" from "The Rose Maiden" rendered by the full oompany, and "The Sunset" by the male quartette. The solo work was up to Its usual standard of excellence, Mr. Crabbe's bass solos, and Mrs. Greene's rendition of "The Swallow" evoking especially hearty applause. Trained almost to perfection by years of vocal work together, and pre senting programs delightfully ming ling humor and pathos, the Dixie Jubilee Singers present without doubt one ot the most attractive and artistlo entertainments now before the Ameri can public.
