very close to bis listeners' hearts.
ills mugnlflclcut pipe organ tones
were declared In the opening number.
"Hear M'e, Ye Winds anil Waves,"
ami a wonderful Interpretation was
given In "I Attempt From Iiveslck
l ness to Ply," a selection from Henry
ll'urcell'B opera of "The Indian Prin
cess." lleynnd comparison were the
transitions from lowest to highest
notes In tho Italian number, "When
Two That Love nro Parted." The en
core demanded wns "Pretty Creature,"
Rtorace, and brought a Blorm of ap
plause. Most exquisitely sung In tho
teuderest and finest of vocal notes
was tho Scotch ballad, a fairy tale,
"Tom the Itllymor," In extreme con
trast was tho comic selection, "I'm n
Itoamer," from tho little opern of
"Son and Stranger," composed by F.
Mendelssohn when twelve years of
age, 11 rollicking song with delightful
interpretation. Although tills number
was sung with great rapidity, every
word was (dearly enunciated.
"The Monotone," a remarkable,
product Ion of Peter Cornelius, In
memory of Ills mother, was splendidly
sung. The tone of (1, In three flats,
, was used alone with wonderful varia
tions of shading ami modulations, to
the accompaniment carrying a little
noiig which made the whole n gem of
music, never before heard In Salem.
Again In contrast, Mr. lllsphain sang
I was Page," from Verdi's "Op-
Fulstnff," Tills was given with
I dramatic Interpretation and
the audience was not satisfied until
the number was repeated.
I Dividing the groups of songs, Mr.
Harry M. Gilbert gave splendidly two
(entirely different and most difficult
piano numbers, 'Nocturne" (D flat)
land "Uhupsnillc" (C major), works of
j F. Chopin ninl K. von Dolmavl. No
bought of cltleli'in could he ap'illel
to his Interpretations. His technldue
was perfect. The audience enthus
iastically called for encore, which was
a surprisingly clever bit of left hand
work. The selection was the Bextetto
from Lucia de liimmamoor, and al
though tho right hand was at rest, not
a note was missing. Mr. Gilbert's
accompanying was faultless and no
song could have been perfection with
out such splendid following. Mr. Btfl-
pham's second group of songs was
opened with a splendid rendition of
an American classic, "The Song of
the Shirt," by Sidney Homer. Most
appealing to the audience was Robert
Hum's tale of the battle of "Kllllck
rankle," set to music by H. H. W'etz
Icr, and sung to a piano Imitation of
bag-plies. Here again, Mr. Illspham's
dramatic force brought to vivid re
cognition the braggadocio coward.
One of tho most beautifully given
cumbers was Louis Klbel's setting to
i, mule of Thomas Moore's "Calm lie
Thy Sleep."
"Danny Deever," Uudyard Kipling's
poem, was arranged by Walter Dam
rosch especially for Mr. lllspham,
fifteen years ne.o, and this wonderful
artist sang It ningulficantly and fol
lowed the sad story with a double
encore In comic vein.
The first was a banjo song from
llandana Uallads and the next "Fx
hortatltons," by William Cook Marion.
This was the preaching of an old col

An Interesting program has been
arranged for the Christmas recital
this afternoon by Mrs. W. A. Denton's
piano pupils, In her resilient studio.
Dainty little folders programmed
the numbers given In recital by Miss
Beatrice Shulton's small pupils and
assistants, on the afternoon of Decem
ber seventeenth, at the First Congre
gational Church. Theso children,
whoso ages are from seven to ten
years, are bright musical pupils and
gavo their selections In excellent man
ner. Terhaps the most effective num
ber on the program was the "Japa
nese Ixivo Song," by Annnbello Gol
den and Lois Nye In costumes of the
Flowery Kingdom. These children,
pupils of Miss lliishnell, sang prettily
and acted their parts to perfection.
Tho "Christmas Song" by little chil
dren of Garlleld school, added much
to the pleaseure of the program.
"Italn Drops," played by a tiny lit
tle three-year-old musical boy, Ken
neth Allen, was delightful. Mccyle
Hunter, a very sweet little singer as
sisted, giving a Christmas song. In
all, tho rendition of this children's
Christmas recital wns very Interest
ing nnd showed what a teacher's thor
ough training can accomplish when
applied to small girls and boys.
I'nder direction and advice of Miss
Mlnuette K. Harlan, a very large dele
gation of Monmouth people came to
Salem for the lllspham concert Tues
day night. This thriving town is show
ing a spirit of progress, especially In
music. Not only was expressed the
keenest appreciation of tho high merit
of tho music, and the privilege of lis
tening to Mr. Illspham's magnificent
voice, but an assurance was given that
the appenranco of Carrie Jacobs-Bond
would bring to this city the same
number of Monmouth people for the
tenth of January.
It la qulto possible Miss Magors will
accept Mr. Frederick Shlpman's ad
vice and present Nordlca In Salem.
Mr. Shlpman Is manager for David
nisphani and would have availed him
self of the -opportunity to visit this
city Thursday evening had he not
been called to San Francisco on that
day.
