Large Audience Listened to an
Unusually Fine Musical Pro-
gram at the Methodist Church
Last Night
The organ recital and concert
given in the Methodist church last
night, commemorative of the in
stallation of the magnificent new
Pipe organ, was a most successful
affair, and was attended by an au-
dience numbering over six hun-
dred. The church will clear in the
neighborhood of one hundred dol-
lars as a result of the enterprise,
and those who attended were given
an opportunity of listening toa
musical program which has prob-
ably never been equalled in this
valley.
The regular church choir of
twenty-cight voices, assisted by
the Rev. Charles Smith, baritone
Mrs. George Hill, contralto, and
R. L. McAll, organist, rendered a
program that was delightful. Mr
McAIF is the organist of the
Church of the Covenant in New
York city. He came to Sayre
preceded by an excellent reputa-
tion, and his work last night proved
beyond a peradventure that he is
entitled to all the good things that
have heretofore been said concern-
ing him. His selections were of
the understandable kind. Instead
of using classics that are out of
reach of the ordinary ‘individual,
Mr. McAll selected themes that
were for the most part familiar to
every one present and therefore
greatly appreciated. He isa per
fect master of the pipe organ, and
under his magic touch the instru
mony that at times was entrancing
The work of the choir was
excellent. Under the direction of
C. J. Cary several choruses were
rendered in a decidedly pleasing
manner. Mry Hill and Mr. Smith

ment was worthy of all the good
things that are being said about it
today.
The new instrument, which is
one of the best of its kind, proved
to be all that is claimed for it, and
the choir and member of the con-
were ever able to get along without
it. It reflects much credit upon
those who were responsible for its
installation,

The wreck which occurred on
the Lehigh Valley at Hinkles on
Saturday was one of the worst
that the company has encountered
in years. Between ten and eleven
o'clock a D. S. & S. coal train con-
sisting of fifty cars and drawn by
engine No. 19 left Hazel Creek
bridge for tide water. It passed
through Weatherly safely, but at
Black Creck a stop was made for
'several minutes. This stop was
the cause of the wreck that follow-

(under full headway it rounded the
| curve at Hinkles and crashed into
{the rear end of a freight train that
was running at a slow rate of
| speed. The crew in the caboose
(of the forward train jumped and
saved their lives. The clash of
{the two trains was terrific, and in
lan instant both tracks were c@ver-

led and are almost a total loss to
