'Colonel Watklns, who has earned the
soubrfjjoet of the 'Welsh Nightingale'
by her sweet singing and earnest efforts
In behalf of evangelical work, spoke
very hopefully of the independent or
conization in this country. It was
largely through her efforts that the
famous 'Bowery Corps,' which has
worked wonders in the reformation of
the New York slums, was formed, and
her loyalty to Commander Booth,
which caused her to desert the regular
band of Salvationists, has been keenly
felt by that organization. She has
sweet, musical voice, and is a great
favorite with her audiences wherever
she goes. She was accompanied- last
evening by Staff Captain Frederick
Lindsay, to whom she Is engaged to be
married, and the various officers who
are In charge of the Pennsylvania bat
talion."
