The thirty-fourth semi-annual declarations were presented last night at the lioya High School, Marcy and l'utnan atoouos, and, as urual, the euditcrium was crowded, and hundreds of the friends of the school stood throughout. Dr. James Sullivan, the principal, presided, and with him was Harold E. Buttrlck, chairman of the faculty committee on public speaking, who had trained the speakers. An overture was played by the Boys High School Orchestra, under the direction of William Goate, the music teacher of the school, Gruenwiild's "Anthony's Victory," and It was well received.

The Mandolin Club of seven boys, accompanied by the orchefe-trci, rendered "Hearts and Flowers," and was given great applause. There were four candidates for the two prizes for orations, and as many for the prizes for recitations. The first part of the programme consisted of the orutlons, and Robert Meruk presented Lincoln's second inaugural address. He was handi capped by being the llrst on the pro gramme, but the judges were not Influenced by the enthusiasm of the audience. "A Vision of War," Robert lngcrsoil, was delivered by Edward Saphlr, and Senator "hurston's "Plea for Cuba" was given by Samuel Zimmermann, who was accepted by everyone as the best of the orators.

Samuel Hyman Friedman, one of the little fellows in the school, who donned long trousers for the occasion, did exceedingly well with Patrick Henry's speech for Independence. Next year, if rriedman keeps on, be will capture one of the medals. Between the two part3 of the pro gramme Aaron Bring played a violin solo, accompanid by William Cost, Tobanl's "Bohemian Girl." Ho is the leading violinist of the orchestra, and plays like a professional. The recitations were most popular, and Mr. Buttrick did well In putting them in the second part.

"Whlsperln' Bill," by Irving Bacheller. was the selection of Samuel Feldman, and although well rendered as a whole, his enunciation was not clear at all times. Walter Frisch chose that difficult poem of Lord Tennyson, "The Ballad of the Revenge," and Edwin Thomas Redmond gave "The Vagabonds," the story of the old fiddler and his dog, which has been a popular recitation for many years. Redmond is an actor and was successful in enlisting the sympathies of his audience. William Rothen-berg presented the chariot race from "Ben Hur." It was a Ilnished production.

and when he closed there was no doubt In anyone's mind as to who should re ceive the first prize for recitations. The judges were Horace E. Dresser, oi the Board of Education: Joseph E. Cos- grove, also of that board, and Orlando E. Ferry, of Erasmus Hall High scnooi.

While they were considering their verdict Dad Edwards and his glee club enter tained the assemblage, which seemed to forget all about the decision of tne Judges. Frank R. Curtis was the soloist. Old Madrid" and "Bedtime at the 4oo were not enough, and the club gave an other before Mr. Dresser appeared on the platform.

The decision of the Judges was unanimous, he said. Zimmermann won the gold medal for orations, and Meruk tho silver modal. Rotherbeig the gold medal for recitations, and Redmotid tlio silver medal. The decision was cheered. HONORED THEIR RECTOR.

"The Girl of the Golden West," and in view of the immense amount of detail incidental to the preparation of this work, the intended premiere was necessarily postponed from Tuesday, December 6, to Saturday, December 10, making it imperative that the second performance be given on Saturday night, December 17. We are, therefore, most reluctantly compelled to advise you that It will be impossible for us to give a performance at the Brooklyn Academy on this latter date, as had already been scheduled. Consequently this fourth Brooklyn performance will have to be postponed to some date early in 19H. to be later agreed upon. Subscribers will please, therefore take out and keep from their subscription books the ticket for 17 which Is marked "Number 4" and which will be good for this postponed date, due notice of which will be mailed to every subscriber.
