Werner and Daniel. Campanarl and the Atlanta audi ence are old friends, and his singing In "The God and the Maid,” the opera dedicated to him, met with the ovation which Is always accorded him here, and which reached tho height of en thusiasm Thursday evening whon he responded to an encore with Toreador. In the "Gloria Te" his voice waa per haps better than at any time during the evening. Madame Maconda Is In far better voice than on her appearance here at the last music festival. She waa acr corded generous applause upon her rendition of the soprano role In “The God and the Maid,” but It was In the duets sung with Mr. Green In "La Corsicana" that her beautiful soprano made Its greatest appeal. Her appear, ance at tlie matinee Saturday after noon Is being anticipated with pleas ure. Mr. Greene, the tenor, and Silas Maull, contralto, were heard hero for the first time, and made many friends.

The presentation of Dr. Browne's opera, "La Corsicana," was a deserved triumph for the man who has labored unceasingly for Atlanta's musical Interests, Apart from tbe Interest which canters In the production as Dr. Browne's own, tbe opera baa qualities which would endear It to any public. The airs are rich In melody,, and It Is safe to predict that they will be among tho most popular heard In Atlanta this summer. The duets sung by Madame Maconda and Mr. Greene were the best liked parts, and next In favor came tbs serenade, “Nannlna,” which Mr. Greene sang. Campanarl sang the stir, ring bandit song with a spirit and dash which made him appear at his very beat Mr. Browne was presented at the close of the presentation with a great wreath of laurel, and was given tre mendous applause.
