BICE SMITH Lecture at the Tubman For the Benefit of the Associated Charities Was Heard Last Night. Miss Margaret Battle Sang. ("npt J. Rice Smith's lecture at the Tubman last night was well attended in spite of the cold weather and fur nished an evening of unalloyed pleas ure to the representative audience there gathered. A lmt quite full of money was collected for the Associat ed Charities at the door as the en thusiastic crowd passed out, amount ing to about $l5O. including pledges. The program opened and closed with a male quartet under the leader ship of Mr. John Haines, who sang very enjoyably the famous setting of •'Prink ot Me Only With Thine Eyes*’ and "Maryland. My Maryland." Miss Margaret Battle gave two num bers, "Mayfields and Butterflies” bv Hook, and Pel Rtego's "Mary of Al lendale." The audience refused to be quiet until they were given an encore a charming little humorous ballad! Miss Battle ably accompanied bv Miss Kllen Hickman, was in splendid voice and never sang better, to the utter de light of a most sympathetic audience. Her lovely voice goes on improving year by year, with constant work and training, and each winter her num berless admirers are astounded with new beauties. For Miss Battle is a tireless worker and a true musician and, furthermore, has almost Infinite possibilities to work with. Her enun ciation is very nearly perfect and It Is only an occasional syllable which the audience does not catch as clearly as though the words were easily and nat urally spoken. This, by the wav. Is a quality which Is almost never found outside the & eatest singers. Capt .1 Kice Smith was introduced by Mr. S A. Fortson, president of the Associated Charities, and spoke dur ing perhaps three-quarters of an hour in his own inimitable fashion on the Service."
