khaii)-Mrr.—A rather melon, accident betel a lad in
Mr. G. Fames employ, on Tuesday. ?le had been to
Weymouth to fetch back one of the horses which had
been at the races, when the animal became frightened
near the cemetery and bolted off in the direction of
Fordineon, where the lad, losing his balance in round-
ing • sharp curve, was thrown with some violence
through the window of • cottage, and sustained some

LONDON CONOULT P.l2l7.—The London
O
Catnips Company gave • Concert at the Town Hall
on Tuesday, to a limited but appreciative audience.
The company is • small one, but comprised one or two
Whites of acknowledged ability, and particularly we
must mention Miss Edith Vane, ?dr. Hopkins,
8.A.M., and Mr. Ainsworth. The first part of the
programme consisted entirely of songs and instru-
mental selections, the pianiste being Madame Ains-
worth. One or two of the songs were excellently
rendered, and particularly " Borne Day" (Welling'), by
Klee Edith Vane, who poeserass a voice of no ordinary
quality. In her second effort, "Bummer Shower," the
lady was received with asi undeniable encore, and
although she twice bowed her acknowledgments she
was compelled to repeat • portion of the song. The
only other member of the company who met with the
IMMO favour was Mr. Hopkins, who sang "Across the
Wes Blue Hills, Maria," (Blumenthal) with artistic
taste. He was encored for his second song "Two
Spoons." Mr. Ainsworth sang fairly well, but
to be wafering from • cold. Mr. Wa Imore's
=Mde Delamotte's songs were somewluat critidsed,
the former being evidently in bad voice, and the latter
excessively nervous. The second part consisted of an
operetta, "The Invisible Maiden." by Blanche Gore,
but beyond its rather pleasing music it possesses no
features of any great merit. The plot is • most insipid
ose—we might almost say ridiculous. Mies Vane was
the mainstay of this piece, and was extremely well
✓eceived. We understand Mr. Hopkins will shortly
pay Dorchester another visit with an even more
efficient company, when he may fairly look for more
