Glosz Whitney, popularity has been growing ever since her successful debut in local opera, was the vocalist of the evening. Mrs. Whitneys round, full Eoprano voice evoked warm applause in her Hungarian ballad more admired still in her encore song, one of Ardittis exquisite waltzes, in which the singer delighted everybody with a vocal cascade of liquid notes. Clearly the advantage was given to Mrs. Whitney through the stringed accompaniment. Heretofore vocalists have had to struggle the word is not too strong against the reed and brass rivalry of the full band and the effect has been to make' the voice hopelessly subordinate instead of properly assertive. It is hoped that Mr. Christensen will, in future, have his vocalists accompanied by stringed instruments. The band itself was in splendid condition and the unusual ease and precision with which it responded to the baton was a matter of agreeable and frequent comment. With suipris-in- g rapidity the First Regimental band is establishing itself in musical favor. There will be no concert evening by the First Regimental band, on account of the organization going to fill an engagement at the Idaho state fair at Boise. Bandmaster Christensen is naturally elated at the preference which has been shown the First Regimental band by the enterprising people up north.
