MIi Aknss Making a Great Hit In a ' Beautiful Scene" at Masonic Temple Garden. For several weeks Chicago theatergoers have been somewhat excited over the mysterious personality of a pretty, auburnhaired young woman who has been appearing at the Masonic Temple Root Garden in an act called "The Girl with the Auburn Hair." A similar "turn" was seen here last week as a feature of the Dockstader & Frimroso minstrel, company, except the iinger was a man. The auburn-haired young woman declined to let "ner real name become known. One day the management invited all the auburn-haired girls in Chicago to attend the performance and about five hundred young woman blessed with Titian-tinted tresses accepted the invitation. Indianapolis people who have been In Chicago recently and who have attended the Masoniq Temple Roof Garden performances have seen something familiar in the features of the mysterious auburn-haired singer, and one or two believed they recognized in her Miss Akass, of this city. Those whose conviction was strong, having an acquaintance with the young woman, allowed their curiosity to develop sufficient temerity to call. Their cards were returned with the Information that the fair Einger was receiving no callers. This only strengthened the belief of the Indianapolis people that they had solved Chicago's enigma. Miss Akass was a member of the First Presbyterian Church choir, and her voice was developed under the direction of Professor Ernestlnoif. She went to Chicago to secure an engagement. It is supposed the opportunity came to her to appear at the roof garden at a good salary, and she accepted it with the provision that she be allowed to keep her personality a secret. It is remembered that Miss Akass was brownhaired, -but not "auburn"-haired, and it Is therefore surmised that Chicago's fad is largely founded on a wig. However, her act Is a beautiful one, and offers the best kind of an opportunity for a singer, and Miss Akass's friends do not doubt that she, with her brilliant voice, would have made good without the auburn wig. She was regarded by her friends here as a girl of great talent and ambition. From the way she has been charming Chicago audiences with her voice her friends expect much from her very soon. THE M'GIBESY RECITAL. Playing: of the Well-Knwn Violinist Received Tflth'Great Applause. r Mr. and Mrs. Hugh McGibeny, assisted by Mr. Doug law Webb, of Louisville, gave a recital last evening at the Propylaeum under the auspices of the Metropolitan School of Music The audience was a large one of representative musicians and muslo levers, who were unstinted In their enthusiasm over the programme offered. Mr. McGibeny was heard for the first time in public since his return from a season of violin study in Germany. From his playing last evening he made the most of his time and has brought back with him a broader culture, clearer Insight into the world of music, a greater skill and a larger measure of that capacity for interpretation which makes music more than notes and signs to be given translation Into sound. Mr. McGibeny has gained In technical skill, and in the several programme numbers, while he played no . concerto he gave opportunity for a variety in style that showed in how many ways he has grown In his art. The first selection was the Franz Rlea "Suite for violin and piano," Mrs. McGibeny playing the latter instrument. The work is one teldcm heard here, but It is one of beauty and of an order to please an audience. The first movement, allegro moderato. calls for broad strokes which show character and .delicate tones which give light and shadows, the adagio movement is Tich in harmonies, and rn this Mr. McGibeny gave a sympathetic reading that awakened a responsiveness in the listener. The Barcarolle movement was delicious, as it pictured the dipping of the oars, and out or all the suggestlveness in the music one could hear the boatman's song. Jn wavelike motion the violinist let the flexibility of his bow speak for him. It was the last movement, the moto perpetuo, which captivated the audience. This was taken with accelerated ppeed and was played from beginning to end without a break in its marvelously sustained tremolo. With great nicety Mr. McGibeny made it full of color and vibration, until it sparkled like a shimmering opalescent Jewel. The tone was light, but not thin, and the bowing was so 6wift and easy that it became almost as much a part of the performance to see as the tones were to hear. At Its close the utmost enthusiam was exhibited, and in response Mr. McGibeny played the "Serenade," by Pierne, The second violin number was "Variations on an Air. by BeHin," by Ernst. This Is not often heard, yet. of the entire programme of last evening, it was one of the most interesting parts. The composer has given the theme, a simple one, a varied setting, which ranges from that which is as simple as the subject itself, to the most intricate interwoven combinations of tones. It was In this that the violinist could chow his versatility in technique. For the finale he flayed the "Carmen Fantasie." by Jeno lubay, a brilliant arrangement of the favorite airs of the popular opera of "Carmen." All of the violinist's numbers were gems, each was artistic in itself, as well as characteristic, and was interpreted with ease, grace and Intelligence, and for each Mrs. McGibeny gave an excellent and sympathetic accompaniment. Mr. Webb has sung here before and was so well liked that he was secured for last evening. He has a fine baritone voice, which Is well cultivated, and. though suffering from a slight cold, he greatly pleased the audience. His clear enunciation, well-formed tones and the flnbh he gave his phrases were marked features of hi songs, lie was first heard in a Grm.in Med. "Die Ablotung." by Alexia Hollaer.der, and then In "Love's Oracle," by Ilumpenllnck. the composer of the famous "Hansel and Gretel" opera, and for a response the evercharming "Who Is Sylvia?" by Schubert. A beautiful song was "Somber Woods," by Lully. and this was followed bv "My Rosary." by Ethelbert Kevin, both of which were well received, and for the applause which they elicited he gave "I Know a Uttlaoac," by Horatio Parker. An interest-

Ing number was his last, the "Prologue to I Pagllacci," the famous opera, by Leoncavello. Its words, of course, foretell the opera, and In the brief resume the composer has added his wealth of music, which makes it full of the power, depth and richness one might expect to have condensed into a prologue. This, too, was heartily received. Mr?. McGibeny contributed to the pleasure of the evening with one of her charming musical monologues, offering "The Minuet," which has been put to music bv Laura Sedgwick Collins, and for which Mr. McGibeny gave a violin accompaniment. With grace and ease Mrs. McGibeny Plays the piano and half enacts what her words suggest. She. too. was recalled and gave a humorous sketch, "In May." The recital was an auspicious opening for what promises to be a rich musical Eeason. The "Choir Invisible. The dramatization of James Lane Allen's Kentucky idyll. "The Choir Invisible," received its first production at the Lafayette-square Theater, at Washington, last night. As a stage picture the critics said the play was a very satisfactory reproduction of the early century atmosphere, which was the chief charm of Mr. Allen's story. The setting was excellent, reproducing the coloring of the Kentucky hills in summer and in autumn. Henry Jewett and the company supporting him proved themselves capable interpreters of Mr. Allen's lines. There was a large and appreciative audience, but the play, to become popular, will need some quickening in action. Mr. Jewett and Francis Hastings received several curtain calls. Old Fiddlers Contest To-Mght. To-night the widely-heralded "Old-time Fiddlers' " contest, under the auspices of the Travelers' Protective Association, will occur at Tomllnson Hall. Fiddlers and their "rooters" from over the State are expected to arrive In considerable numbers to-day. Tom E.

The contest will follow and many prizes are offered. All the old-time tunes like "Old Dan Tucker," "The Irish Washerwoman," "Pop Goes the Weasel." 'Bull Pup Hornpipe." "Arkansas Traveler" and ,'GilderoyJ' will be played by fiddlers born and bred. Firemen Pension Fund Concert. So far as the programme for the concert for the benefit of the firemen's pension fund, to be given at Tomllnson Hall next Thursday night, has been arranged it gives promise of an excellent musical entertainment.

SENATOR FAIRBANKS AND OTHERS MAKE BRIEF ADDRESSES. A Presentation to Gen. R. S. Foster of n Scroll Containing Ills Enviable "War Record. The Indiana Commandery, Loyal Legion, gave a dinner at the German House last night, at which over a hundred members and invited guests were present. Admiral Brown was the presiding officer. Prior to the dinner a business session was held, and the following new members were elected: For the First Class Maj. Thomas Graham, Brevet' Brig. Gen. Jasper Packard, Adjutant Ganalel S. Taylor, Sergt. Maj. Luther D. Waterman. ; For the Second Class George M. Cobb, eldest son of Companion Thomas A. Cobb; Henry Long, eldest son of Companion Henry C. Long. The dinner and tho speech-making was interspersed by vocal . and instrumental music by some young colored men. One of their songs, announced by Admiral Brown, was "A Razor Is a Real Thing in a Crowd." One of the enjoyable features of the evening was the presentation to Gen. R. S. Foster of an escutcheon bearing his military record. It was the gift of the commandery and was presented by William A. Ketcham, who made a short but eloquent speech. He referred to General Foster's career with the Thirteenth Indiana Regiment and paid the gallant soldier some high compliments. General Foster acknowledged the gift in a gracious way. In the course of his remarks he said that Mr. Ketcham reminded him of the man who likes a little taffy while he Is here more than he does "epi-taffy" after he is gone, and, referring to his military service, General Foster said: 'I did the best I could, and when a man does that he does all he can' Prof. Graham, superintendent of the Soldiers' Orphans Home at Knlghtstown, followed General Foster with a song, "The Star-spangled Banner," in which everybody iolned in the chorus. Gen. Jasper Packard spoke eloquently on the subject, "The Spirit of the Father Is in the Son." He was followed by Will Cumback, who said he did not believe the title of General Packard's subject would hold good. "My father was a Presbyterian," said Mr. Cumback, "and I am a Methodist. My father was a Democrat and 1 never voted the Democratic, ticket In my life." Mr. Cumback had no particular topic, and gave an entertaining talk on his experiences as a member of the Thirty-fourth Congress. Senator Fairbanks, who was one of the guests of honor, made brief remarks. He spoke of an evening during the late war with Spain when he was with President McKinley. The-war clouds were gathering thick and fast. During the course of their talk the President said to him: "I would not care for the millions of dollars that will be lost and the property that will be destroyed. It is the human suffering and tho hearts that will break before the end comes." Said Mr. Fairbanks, in referring to the President: "He appreciates the loyalty of this organization in this hour of criticism, when he is undertaking to uphold the honor of the flag you fought so gallantly to save." Representative Overstreet said that the younger generation could not sit with the veterans in their, councils, but they could breathe the Influences and inspirations from the lives of these; old soldiers. Mr. Overstreet said the late war with Spain impressed itself on him at an early date. It was his privilege, he said, to be one of two men who carried -the- declaration of war made by the American Congress to President McKinley. , Among the others who spoke were Charles Wappenhans. who "gave a history of the Weather Bureau: -Maj. J. S. Ostrander, of Richmond, and John B. Cockrum, of this city. Senator Beveridge, who it was expected would be a guest of honor, was unable to be present and sent his regrets.
