By EMMA L. FETVX. 1 Sympathy between the artist and the auditors was quickly established last evening when Emllio de Gogorza, baritone, opened his concert in the Coliseum with Handel's beautiful, "Where'er You Walk." De Gogorza is an ideal concert artist. Perfect ease, a pulsating voice, and attention to the most minute details are his, and there is a quality in his voice which is singularly soothing. His program last night seemed all too short. . Moussorgorgsky'a "The Seminarian," proved one of the most popular numbers of the evening, cutting, as it did, a sort of fog bank which had crept over the audience from the heavy rain storm outside. This was preceded by"The Arabian Love Song" by Borodine, a pleading, ancient song which the singer gave a most delightful interpretation. "In Silent Night." a number with values of great merit for a baritone voice, was one of the most pleasing numbers of a perfect concert. Following the second part of his program de Gogorza presented two Spanish songs, "En Calesa" and "Canto del Presidiario," by F. M. Alvarez,

j one of the best known Spanish com

posers, and a Mexican folk song, "Noche Serena." Because he is a Spaniard himself with all the Bpirit of his native country, de Gogorza gave these numbers with emotion and tenderness. Then came the ario, "Promesse de mon 1 avenir" from "Le Roi de La Hore" by Massenet, which from the first note to the last, was a triumph. The synical "Serenade" from the

"Damnation de Faust," was even more popular, however, and the audience insisted on an encore. He sang "La Paloma," unusual as a song, but interesting In the fact that Spanish words were' used. It was toned warm and rubescent and the sparkle and turn of tambourines flashed out with the well known notes. One of the most expressive numbers was "Pipes of Pan" by Edward Elgar. The final number of the program "Invictus," by Bruno Huhn, touched with just enough sternness, often overdone, was followed by two encores, "The Barber of Seville," and another Alvarez number, "El Celoso." Miss Helen Winslow, de Gogorza' s accompaniest, was sympathetic 'and showed pianistic ability. , George Eggemeyer and Rutherford Jones, who made possible this, the final concert of three given In Richmond this season, are strongly assured

of appreciation from the fortunate audiences who have heard the concerts,

t.and who otherwise would have faced h. barren musical season. Alda, Laz?ari, Ganz and de Gogorza have each

in turn brought Joy to a respondent

audience, and the efforts of the two sponsers are worthy of great commendation.

FRIENDS' WORKER If) SIBERIA GIVES POST

TO MAN KNOWN HERE

Thomas E. Jones, Friends representative in Japan,' -who has been working for a period of six-months -with the American Y. M. C. A. in Vladivostok, Siberia, has returned to Japan, according to word received at the central offices of the" Friends Five Year Meeting here today."' ; Mr. Jones is well known in Richmond - and Indiana. Herbert E- Bowles, son of Mr. and Mrs: Gilbert Bowles, Influential Friends and also well known in this city, has. succeeded Mr. Jones in Vladivostok. Mr. Jones has written to the Friends office here saying that conditions, although still very serious in some respects, are Improving in the Siberian city. He explained that the Y. M. C. A. now has more than 1,000 members who are taking an active-Interest in the Christian ideals and sanitary works. :, . . "Overcrowded living conditions are not only aggravated by .constant, ln--flux of refugees, all of whom'. must find homes, food, and clothing and if possible, fwork," says Jones. "But over 5,000 refugees had applied for help to the American Red Cros up until March 1, and food had been supplied to 4,105 persons. Clothing, some of which the Japanese contributed, had been given to two-thirds that number. The constantly growing stream of

people are given lodging for short or !

longer periods in barracks provided for that purpose. The discouraging task has been to find employment for those who really desire it," he said. "A surplus of 4,000 workers in this city already makes it doubly difficult to find work for outsiders. In spite of this the Red" Cross has been able to find work for 250 persons and the Y. M. C. A. has placed about one-third that number. "When I was leaving the severity of the winter had abated some, and the refugees will not suffer so terribly from cold from now on. However, they still need food, clothing, and all other necessities of life."
