T" IE last of the series of six Monday
Morning Muslcales was held yesterday
at the Bellevue Stratford and I, for one,
am sorry, tor they wero certainly delight
ful affairs nnd this last was by no means
least. Magglo Tojtc, of tho Boston Oncm.
Company, i-ang tho most delightful collec
tion of songs and Mr. Shattuck fairly lode
the piano sing, eo much soul was thero In
his playing. It was altogether a most
leasing and interesting performance.
Without doubt the most delightful morn
ing of tho six was that on which Jacques
Thlbault, tho fiddle plajcr, and Modamo
Gills, tlie Trench soprano, gave us a morn
ing of almost unalloyed delight. I under
itand tlicy me to give a morning next
eason, for It has been decided to hold a
tries next winter also. I personally could
fit ask for an j thing more delightful, how
rer, than to sit and hear dainty little
Maggie Tcjte. with her highly dramatic
Tdcvslng tho lovely little Trench chan
sons audi as sho sang cstpnlay.t Tho
unual crowd was there, the knitters knit
ting and the listeners sitting and both
applauding vigorously. I certainly am clad
there will be others next ear. Nct yeat !
Can we look ahead that fur and plan for
pleasures a jear fiom now? Wo ought to,
for, no mutter whether tho war bo over
not. Tie must havo music to help us bear
tae sorrows of tho vvoild as well an our
wn and, too, this music has helped tho
Overseas Club, jou know.

had all been especially Invited for the oc
casion. It was a wonderful sight to se them nil
Standing ktialght and fine, whilo tho notes of '
the national anthem, rolled through tho great
opera house In fact It would bo safo to say,
that this was one of tho biggest affairs given
so far for tho olllcers and enlisted men to
gether, and to say they tool; advantage of It
la certainly true, for thero were oincers of all
ranks, headed by Brigadier Cencral L. W. T.
Waller nnd Commander Payne, of the Naval

It was altogether a delightful evening, and
the war entertainment committee Is to be

brave defenders ot the nation.
Tho performance was Gilbert and Sulli
van's "Mikado," and It was exceedingly well
done. The Bev. Willi im S Murphy, ono of
the assistant priests of St. Patrick's Church,
at Twentieth and Bittenhousa streets, Is
director of the Operatlo Society, nnd ho led
tho orchestra during the performance. Tho
chorus work was especially good, tho voices
fresh, strong and well cultivated. Misa
Furley, as lura Yum, sang extremely well.
Her feolo, "Tho Sun and I." in tha second
act, brought much applause, as did Miss
Jacoby's contralto solo, "Hearts do not
break."
Tho various principals did, splendid work,
Mr. Harry Flomlng made a fine Pish Tush
and Mr. Frederick Blemann was a very good
Pooh Bah. Koko brought down tho house
by his various remarks nnd topical songs,
while Pletr Wlila, the well-known Polish
baritone, sang the Mikado's part extremely
well ; his voice Is really superb. There were
many encores and Koko's list of "those who
might well be underground" Included the
Kaiser and various others about whom the
men In uniform certainly agreed, for they
clapped and clapped. Altogether .both givers
and hearers were to bo congratulated on one
