*
Friday night last was the first
Ctmcert of the. Chautauqua. It
g W%s a grand success in "every par¬
ticular. Mr .Guy FrazeTle was the
first 1 the with
on programme a cor¬
net solo, which he executed in aq
Admirable style, Lucius Perry Hills
then recited the Encore, an original
poem by himself, which was re¬
ceived here, as lustily, perhaps as
anywhere he has before recited it.
Beside being an excellent humor
ist, he is ode of the finest imper
sonators we have ever seen. Mr.
Ijills’ “Encore.” is certainly .very
fine. A
Mjss Wuertz, the queen of vio¬
...
mm- lists, was and the her. next playing on the pro- the
amme, on
(Sfii was simply grand, and de¬
lighted the large audience so much
that she was encored several times.
A ■peculiar incident in - this con
flection fs that Miss Wuertz left
Mr. Heskett’s sister’s house, at
Bethesda, Ohio, where she was atr
tending a Chautauqua, and camfl
direct to Demorest, and was carried
to Mr. Heskett’s to be entertained
while here.
Miss Minnie Quinn recitpd was next the
on the programme, add
“Chariot Race” from Ben Hur,
in her best style. She is an artist
of rare skill and was loudly ap¬
plauded by the audience.
Mrs. Wingfield sang -several
solos to the delight of the audience.
She sang beautifully and delighted
all who heard her.
Hoh. W- J. Pemorest and wife
came in while the concert was go¬
ing cm, and Th\ C. P. Williamson
in an eloquent and neat speech in¬
troduced them to the audience amid
tht Chautauqua “Blooming of the
Lillies salute” the first time given at
this Chautauqua, which; of course
was as grand a compliment as could
be ^the paid the honored guests.

closing closing concert concert
The concert was a grand closing

performance, ml

The concert was opened by a
song from p rof Rathbun’s chorus
class, which in all probability was
the best music by a chorus class
everTieard in Demorest;
L P Hills, that clever and versa
tile t, was loudly applauded Hills at i»
eve appearance. Mr.
truly a great humorist and grows
hi favor the longer he is known.
Miss Bessie Rathbun, a very sweet
singer, and wb<x hafe captivated her
many hearts in Demorest by the
sweet voice, was the neat on
programme and as usualsangbeau- Queen
tifully. MissWuertz, the
of the violin, pleased the Dftnorest
people by appearing before them,
It was understood when she came
that she would appear before
Demorest audience but once or per
haps twice, but from her own
kindness and appreciation has ap
peered several rimes and always
delighted her audience as
no one else has ever done with a
violin. She is a thorough difficult mastor
of the violjn and the most
and classic music she played with
an abandon that was simply won
derful. Her fingering and exocu
tion are such as to call out exclama
tions of surprise ftotwall music lov
ers. Miss Wuertz has made many
warm personal friends during her
stay in Demorest by her aid in mak
ing the Chautauqua the grand offhe sue
cess that it is. She is one
artists, Mr. Hills and, Mrs. Wing
field the others, who, to help out
the Chautauqua financially,, gave Tallu- a
concert at Gainesville and

charged a cent. Seen ki

with being a'good delineator, a poet

If there is anybody m Demorest
w ho deserves the sincere thanks of
the citizens it is Mrs. Hatvey taught for J.
Moore, of Atlanta. She

the Chautauqua commenced, has
been the very efficient instructor in
physical culture in the Chautauqua,
and toms over the proceeds to that
organization. Truly Mrs.
has the good of Demorest at heart,
One of the most useful snd en¬

very deep interest in the Chautau
