A writer in Free Lance (Wellington) says—Dear “Footlight,"—lt may interest you to know, that in these days of reeofi'ds, itlie greatest number of songs sung by an individual soloist at a' Liedortnfel or Male Voice Concert in a good city before a high-elas* and critical audience. Madame Johnston Topliss, whose services were secured by tlie Gisborne Orpheus Society at their concert last week, established a wonderful record. The concert hall was crowded and her solo work created a scene of the greatest enthusiasm and excitement. So much so that during the evening encores and recalls were so persistent and numerous that no loss than ten different songs were given by this talented artiste. Mrs Johnston Topliss, I may mention was horn and spent her early years at Hokitika. She has left Gisborne for Wellington, where she will he for some weeks, aiul I hope the public there may have the pleasure of hearing her sing. Yours, etc., Gisborneite.
