CUsuMAN's CoNcERT.-It was our


pleasure TO attend the concert given by
the Cushman Troupe at the City Hall last
Saturday evening, and we feel it duty to
say that it was one of the best concerts we
ever attended. Mr.. Cushman's voice seems
, to have improved since we heard it before
We unhesitatingly pronounce Lin the
equal of any vocalist we ever liste ned to-,
and second to none. His rendering Of
that grand old song "The Sword of Bunker
HILL" eycels all we ever heard attempt it,
The performance on the organ by Prof
Burke was grand. As a soldier we could
fully appreciate the excellencies of "a
Night Before Petersburg" The limitations
of the bugle calls, fife and drum music, etc, +,
we're SO perfect as to bring vividly before
each soldier present the scenes of the dark
days of rebellion Mr.. Montg merry $
bass is we'll in keeping with the others of
the troupe, 1t is as fine and powerful as the
admired John G. Parkhurst's. Unfortunate
ly, Miss Lette Burke was too unweli to be
present, but all who attended (Which we re
srct was not large number) agreed that
they had received fully all their moneys
worth. From every quarter where the
Cushman Troupe is known comes words Of
highest encomium. We will quote few
of them. The Prairie du Chen Press SAYS
Cushman's Concert was one of the best en-
tcrtainments ever given here. Worth
twice the money-all say. Mr.. Cushman
is certainly the best delineator we have
ever seen, and the parts taken By the rest
of the troupe are unsurpassed. They are
in fact, all they claim to be, and little
more. The Dodgeville Chronicle is thus
enthusiastic: We went to hear Cushman's
Qusrtette last night, and we can say the
performance WAS much nsore than we could
have expected We feel proud to think We
have had such treat; such feast Of song
only cowes once in lifetime
Mr.. Burke is a perfect organist, we have
never heard such music before from any
instrument whatever.
Miss Burke has a rich contralto voice,
every note perfect and melodous
j. D. Montgomery excels all bassos We
evec heard, his voice is SO fearfully grand,
while Mr.. Cushman has no equal as a vocal
ist husaorist and delneator of character.
The troupe far excells anything that ever
visited oar village. Eyerything is correct
in tone Of morals, and as perfect as artistic
training can be made. And the Darlington
| Republicans follows up with: As an eocu-
| Zionist he is the peer Of Murdoch as a
singer-well, we heard him once, and if he
and the celebrated Nilsson were each to
sing here tbs same night, admittance in
both cases free, we should uRhesitatingly
go to hear Mr. Cushman.
This excellent quartette will sing at tho
City Hall again tomorrow evening, at the
urgent request of many Of our citizens.
Those who fail to attend will miss an even
ing of pleasure that they may never be able
TO enjoy again. Remember, at the City
Hall, Friday evening, May 9Th.

l O. o. F,-Deapite the unfavorable
weather, large representation of the
brotherhood met at Dodgeville last WedS
nesday to celebrate the SGD annivorsary
of Odd Fellowship in America.
In accordance with programme, the
members assembled at the hall of the
Dodgesille Lodge, where procession was
formed and marched through the princi-
pal streets to the NJ Il. Church. The
annual address was delivered by MIR.
Mullnger Of Shullsburg. The address
was grand one, we'll delivered-a
great credit to it's author, and q rare
feast to oil who heard it. Capt. N.
Whitman was called out, Mt the close Of
the address, and made one of those elo-
qnent little impromptu speeches for
which he is SO famous Bro Abbott, Of
the Darlington Republican, followed, with
as fine little address as is often heard in
halls where models:of eloquence are wont
to display their powers. We confess q
proud surprise on discovering our broth
er craftmans fine talents as an elocution-
ist
From the Church the glad company
rel aired to the hall, where the ladies Of
Nodgeville had prepared for them most
bountiful, rich repast, to which ample
justice was done. After supper music,
short speeches, &C., was the order, which
was kept up till late in the evening,
much to the pleasure and moral profit OF
every one present. The celebration was
one of those in which every body is
made happy, and the memory Of which
will remain while life lasts.

appeared TO much better advantage than IN paul

with loud applause. Miss Emma HoWson
displayed more brlanG qualities az an actress than
she mas been accredited with before, and II Is pity

Row in an African Chnrch-The Aid OF the
Police Invoked.
During business meeting OF the members OF the
Mount Zion African church, Williamsburg last
night the Rev. Moses Manning interrupted the
proceedings SO frequently and persstenty that the
church offcers called upon Captain woglom, OF the
Fifth precinct, to eject him. The Captain, wlthione
OF his officers, Immediately repaired TO the
church. and his appearance produced SO deep an
impression on Brother Manning that he imme-
diately subsidized. The business Of the meeting was
then conducted in q Christian spirit.
The trouble In the church was caused by the dis
placement OF Brother Manning as steward by Elder
Stubs, who has recently been sent to take charge
OF the society Dy the Conference.
