The BENEFIT LAST EvENINa.-Mrs.
Sauer's benefit last evening, at Piper's
Opera House, was decidedly q very
complimentary and successful affair.
The theater was well crowded through
out, and the dress circle presented an
especially fine appearance, containing
a full representation of the fair sex,
and tho front row being occupied by
the National Guard in full uniform.
Owing to not being able to get their
famous hose carriage upon the stage,
Good Will Hose Company did not ap.
pear In the interlude In q series of
tircmen's tableaux, rs wal proposed,
but the rest Of the programme passed
of admirably and to the general salts
faction Of the audience. The vocal
and instrumental selections were OK
cellent, and each received 4 due amount
OF appreciative applause. IN the Star
light, a most beautiful duct, was very
sweetly given by Mrs. Sauer and Miss
Berthior. Their voices blended finely,
but that of Mrs. Sauer was perhaps 4
trifle too powerful in the upper notes
for complete harmonizlng. Tn Waiting
my Darling for Thee, sung by Mrs.
Sauer, nea the close Of the entertain
ment, was her best piece. 1t was do
servedly encored, and in response
she sang the Female Auctionee' in
excellent style. Miss Amelia Young
was we'll encored In her song Of Thou
1t so nen-, and yet so fur, and achieved
n decided triumph In the operate
piece she gave In reply. She has a re-
singing last evening showed evidence
Of good tuition and careful study. She
will make n famous singer some day.
Miss Lucy Berthier also succeeded eX-
cellently in mer part Of the singing. The
sweetest vocal solo of the evening was
the beautiful ballad, Put me in my little
bed, sung BY Miss Isabella Thomas, &C
companied OF the piano by Professor
Pasmore. 1t was sung in most pleas
ing style, with exquisite taste and feel
ing. The finest chorus of all was
Night shades no longer, In Rossini's
Prayer from Noses. 1t was given with
splendid effect by all the ladies and
gentlemen. and was deseryedly ell
corcd. Michel was given by the comic
German quartette, IN their own most
excellent style and created much noisy
merrimcnt. Miss Ella Emerson's reel
tation Of the Shores Of Tennessee, al
though we'll given and applauded, was
not so good n success ut. IL would prob
ably have been had there been less
noise among the youthful barbarians
in the ~parIuette. In fact, owing
doubtless partly to the crowded
state Of the house, there was an un-
usual amount Of noise for such IN occa-
sion. Frank Moore, as usual, achicveda
brilliant SUCCESS IN his flute solo. lie
is chief on that instrument. Sam Mitch
ell, also, in his violin solo, followed by
an inimitable bone solo, was very much
applaudcd. The double song and
in the interlude, by Elston and
was loudly applauded and ell
corcd, and Arthur's clog dance was
well received. The entertainment
closed finely with the famous and
popular hnvil Chorus, given by all
the ladies' and gentlemen. with anvil
and bass drum accompaniment.
This probably closes the series OF ex-
cellent and popular concerts which
have been given during the past few
months, and for which the public are
indebted to Professor Farini who
originated them and has been their
principal manager. The majority Of
the talented lady singers participating
r or were his pupils.
