Mn. HABgLhANN's OPERATIo CONCERT last
evening drew large audience to Concert Hall.
This was the Hfth concert given this season by
che distinguished German tenor, and at last
they have become on established institution ln
Our musical community. Mr.. Habelmsnn was
assisted last evening by Mrs. Henriette Behrens,
Mr.. Joseph Herrmanns, the distinguished basso,
Mr.. Jean Loiis and a gentleman amateur.
Mrs. Behrens gave the audience Blumenthal's

The latter she sang with rare sweetness and ex-
preston, and well deserved the imperative

gave a sOlo--"To the Storm Winds" by Carl

sonAtion of "Mephistopheles,r supported by Mr..
Habelmann as Faust" and Mr.. Jean Louis as
''Yalentin.n The first act Of Gounod's Faust
was given entire, and likewise the serenade and
encounter with "ValeRtin, !" from the fourth act
II is unnecessary for us to speak Of the manner
in which these charming morceuur were rem
aered. Suffice It TO say that it was unexcep-
tionsble, and the effect was much heightened
by the introduction of appropriate scenery.
At the close of the concert, Messrs.
Habelmann and Louis in costume
gave the amusing duet from Flotou's opera Of
Srddeiia, which was received with rounds of
laughter and applause, as on the occasion when
il was recently presented at Horticultural Hall
This evening Mr. Habelmann's sixth Costume
Concert will be given at Concert Hall, Nine

belmann, and Jean Louis, participating In
addition to several solos, the programme pro-

"Marryin'"-A Juicy Letter.

From the Princeton (Ky.) PrOgress.l
Messrs. Editors; Marvin is a good
thing, so I've been told. As a general
Thing it isn't healthy to have more'n one
wife al a time. We once knew a man
who married a second wife while The first
one was living, and when vile No. |
heard Of it, she chased him all over the
United States and finally run hlm INTO
Nova Scotia, where he committed suicide
by holOin' bis head in snow-bank. We
heard of another one who spliced himself
10 woman and seven children, and not
ben' able 10 give reason for such whole
sale doins, had to make shoes in the PEN
ilentiary for three years.
Some people live very happily together
when married, and their lives are as pleas
ant as sleepin' on a she'd on a hot sum
mer's night. They live as swee! and
tender 10 each other as if they didn't care
if butter was six-biis pound, and spIlIn'
al that. Others don'i live happily TO-
gelher very long. They don't more n
get a, taste OF things before they want 10
sell out. AS general thing the wlle's
moIher'n law get to runnin' the machine
and she'll bankrupt the whole business.
have noticed that two makes stronger
team at that business thah three. The
lraCas generally winds up BY the wife
goin' home 10 her moih,r and takin' all
her clothes and about half OF everything
her mother-in.law can lay her hands on.
Then there are some others who dash
right into hot water from the word "go." &"
They make things lively about the plan
,a,ion, you bet. They make each other
see green srcaks from The beginnin'
That machine doE't ge, fairly up afore it
bursts, and there aia't much use tryin' TO

you please. This sort of rumPus uckles
the neighbors nightly, and they hold
SEWN circles nightly over il.
The honeymoon is said TO be the hap
pies, part of married life. Married peo-
pie generally see sPanky time then.
They go i. lively, you bet, But from
what have seen, and the little thunder
that have heard, give me the good old
moon that has been slingin' her rays for
nigh unto half century on this old head
