The Lawrence league team came back this morning from Topeka, where they were defeated in a game of ball yesterday afternoon by a score of 10 to 4. Up to the eighth the score was in favor of Lawrence but then the Topekanis piled up six runs at a jump. The committee are busily at work arranging for the repetition of the Kirmess next Friday night, and every effort will be made to secure a full house. The entertainment is a delightful one and has received nothing but praise from those who saw it last week. The object to which the proceeds will be devoted is one that everybody in Lawrence is interested in. The taking of the city water to the cemetery is something that ought to be done at once, so that when the dry weather sets in it can be made available. Everybody should take an interest in this and work to make a g,and financial success of the Kirmess. Last evening at Fraternal Aid hall Miss Georgia Brown gave a reception to part of her dancing class and others who had taken part in the Kirmess. The hall was very prettily arranged for the occasion, the stage being covered with rugs and otherwise prepared and the balcony being fixed for the serving of refreshments. There were about fifty couples present and they enjoyed themselves in dancing and conversation till a late hour. A feature of the gathering was the presence in costume of many who had helped make the Kirmess a success.

A SUCCESSFUL RECITAL. Misses Eerry and Hinman Delight a Crowded House. Music hall was filled and overflowed last night with music-lovers who thoroughly enjoyed the treat offered them. The happy combination of decided talent in song and piano playing which last night's arrangement afforded made the dual graduating recital one to be marked in the annals of the University school of music. The young ladies who have thus far progressed in the study of their art must have found a gratifying encouragement in the enthusiastic reception accorded their efforts last evening. The program was a varied one and called for a versatility of musical accomplishment which revealed the wide range of training offered in the school of music. Miss Berry's numbers included such contrasting compositions as the stately "Eye hath not seen" from the "Holy City," and Garner's brilliant "Concert Waltz." Her full, clear soprano tones were heard to best advantage, perhaps, in the familiar "Cujus Animam." In response to an imperative encore Miss Berry recalled her first conspicuous success in Lawrence by singing "I Dreamt I dwelt in Marble Halls." To her vocal accomplishments Miss Berry adds a charming stage presence. She is the daughter of Ex-senator Berry, of Waterville, and has studied under Professor Penny's directions for two years. Miss Hinman's successful performances last evening in spite of serious physical obstacles won her the unqualified admiration of the audience. Miss Hinman has been generally looked on as one of the most promising students of piano-playing in the school of music, and her work last evening fully sustain the bright hopes of her well-wishers. Her ever delightful playing of Gottschalk's study in tremolo and her rendition of Liszt's Hungarian Fantasie, assisted by Professor Preyer, display her technical accomplishments and the intelligence of her musical interpretation. Miss Hinman is a resident of Lawrence and has studied in the school of music for five years. VOL. I. NO. 33.

The Second of the Graduating Recitals Largely Attended- The graduating recital by Miss Juliet Titsworth at Music hall Thursday night was largely attended despite the inclementy of the weather. Miss Titsworth is popular in Lawrence musical circles as is manifested in the large attendance and in their appreciation of the very excellent program rendered. At about 8:45 Miss Titsworth came upon the stage, attired in a beautiful white silk dress with rich lace trimmings and carrying a superb cluster of roses. She has a sweet and well modulated voice and sings with very little if any affectation. Her tone is rich and her articulation distinct. It is to be regretted that a program of such rare excellence cannot be repeated under more favorable conditions. The range of selections was very wide, including the sacred, romantic, lyric and dramatic. Perhaps the best interpreted were Champion's "There little girl, don't cry," Gounod's "Le Parlate D'Amor" from Faust, and the number Donzetti's "In Questo Simplice, Modesto Asilo." This last is especially difficult and showed a mastery of technique as well as of expression. The sacred numbers in which Miss Titsworth ordinarily excels, stood at the beginning of the program, and showed something of the nervousness resulting from an unexpected summons; yet through the whole of the program the power and capacity of her voice were well displayed. She sings with unusual feeling and distinctness of exclamation. Professors Dome and Freyer repeated Beethoven's "Kreutzer Sonata" from the concert of May 16, and were again heartily encored. The entire program comprised twelve numbers, three for the violin, and nine vocal, and more than repaid all who braved the elements to hear it. It is to be hoped that it will not become a settled rule for the best concerts to fall upon the worst evenings. The following is the program: The following is the program: Mozart - "Arms Dae," from 1st Mass. Bachman - "Bachmann-No.9, Kreutzer, for violin and piano. Andante, presto." Bachman - "I will stay," song. Saint Saens - "My heart at thy dear voice." Cantabile from Samson and Delila. David - "Andante, e scherzo, for violin." Yamasu - "Cry," song. Gopinandu - "There little girl, don't cry." Meyer-Holmud - "Hall-room whispers." Hubay - "Gavotta, for violin." Donzetti - "In Questo Samplio, Modesto Asilo." Cavatina from Betty. The wooden awnings in front of business houses may serve to protect the different stores that are moved out on the sidewalk every morning, but they don't indicate much progress on the part of the town. One of the speakers at the park yesterday afternoon severely condemned the practice that is growing up nowadays of descriveing the day by ball games and in other similar ways. If the collegiate graduates of the University each had an evening to display their knowledge, there would be something going on in that line the entire school year. E. E. Vaniman, who graduated this year from McPherson College is ysiting his Cousin Chauncey. He will probably attend K. S. U. next year. Prof. Fahnestock and wife, of McPherson College, McPherson, visited the University last week. John Henderson visited the University Tuesday.
