A grand concert, the closing entertainment
Of the Union Lyceum Course, came OF last FRI
day evening. in ShAw's Hall. to q very large
and apprNhtiye audience. Parquet. balcony,
and every available inch Of space In tho aisles
and standing places was occupied by q mass Of
people. The pianists Of the evening were Mr..
L. A. Gowcn Of this city, and Mrs. Florence
Chadbourne of Saco. The opening Chorus was
somewhat marrcd, in consequence OF the piano
and orchestra not being the same pitch, which
made II impractieablc to use them together.
Had the piano been properly tuned it would
have addei much to the orchestral effect. The
singers were all members Of the Biddeford and
SacO Chorus Clubs. Mr.. 4. ~ Hobbs, with his
accustomed ability filed the place Of Director.
The chorus Victoria Victoria - from "Fra
DisvOlo'' was rendered with fine effect, and one
Of the best pieces OF the evening. The recita-
tives from the "creatiOn," by Messrs. Stanton,
and Darling, were good. especially the song.
Elm native worth,'' and also the chorus
from the Creation Achieved is the glorious
work" An operate overture, a'tno for the
piano. by Mrs. Chadbourne and the Misses
Patton was well executed. A quartette by Mrs.
T. L. Merrill. Miss Katie Morris, Mr.. Stanton
and Mr.. Z. s. Morris. with limitations Of sing
ing in the distance. by the chorus. was charm
ing, and marked feature in the entertainment;
. clarionet obligato. by the orchestra was good,
and merited the applause d received A hu-
morOus quartette by Mess,. Grant, Connolly
and Scsvcy wss heartily ensorcd. A qusrtette
by Mrs Little6eld, Mrs. Egeeomb, and Messrs-
Grant and Darling was good. A trio, "Hark
the eurfew, by Mesdames Shannon aud Abbott,
and Mr.. C. o. Gerrish was well received. as was .
qusrtette by Messrs. Couuelly, Bcyers, Stanton
and Sawyer. The concert concluded with the
Soldiers Chorus" from Faust. by the chorus
and orchestra The members Of the chorus
clubs may well congratulate themselves ON the
proficiency which they have attained. Very
much praise Is due the orchestra under the lead
ership Of Chandler Of Portland. b Now that the

The entertainment. Consisting Of = panto-

No. - g. A.. r. Of this city, which came oil
Wednesday evening at Shaw's Hall, was . suo-
cess. which was . certainty, As il was under
the management Of Mrs. Thomas Quinby, with
whom "therc Is no such word as hiL" On
account Of the inclemency Of the weather the
hall was not 50 well filed. as Il otherwise would
have been. Yet with the exception OF very
few seats at the rear OF the hall, and o few in
the galleries, they were all taken up. The
pautomime was one illustrating the story OF
little "Red Riding Hood." Miss Florence
Smith, took the part Of 'Rei Riding Hood !"
Miss Estelle Morris, Mother Miss Ella jordan,
Fairy and water-cress Woman /; Mr.. Clarence
Pierce, Carl (; Mr.. c. W. Ross, the Wolf
Mis- Mary W. Swain read the .'Rhyme Of Red
Riding Hood in a very pleasing manner and
was loudly applsudest. Miss Swain has taken
lessons VI the giftel Nm. Weaver. and bids fair
b become very fine reader. All the scenes
were good, few particularly 50. The ''hoop
dance" upon the village green. in scene II,
was pretty, and very graceful. With the excep-
ton Of little Gloss Of step" by several at the be-
ginning Of the dance il passed otfremarkably well
The dancers carried half wreaths Of evergreen
and flowers, and the mingling Of the bright and
varied costumes Of the peasants in the ms1es Of
the dance formed a brilliant, picture. In Scene
Nv, was Represented the enehxnted bower into
which hborer enters, and for his evil dispo-
sition is transformed into avolf. while "Carl,
the peasant lad" becomes the prince Of hunts
men. scsne VII. brings as to "Grandmether's
Cottage" into which the ''wolf' finds an en-
trance and appropriated Gandmother's bed
where IS he is about to pounce upon "Rcd Rid
ing Hood" he meets with tragic end. This
and the last trausfSrnstion scene, in which vas
the "fAiry grOtto,"" was very finely represented.
Much praise may justly be awarded to Mrs.
Quinby. and her Efficient aids, the Misses Hoop
CT. and to the various participants in the. pam
tomims. Amer the pautomime two cunning
little daughters Of Mr.. Chas. Shannon sang "a
fidgetty Wife," the eldest accompanying ON q
beautiful miniature organ. The entertainment
concluded with the flrcc "Dou't Judge by APP
psarsnce." which was web represented. We
understand the entertainment Is to be repeated.
