coursed by those gentlemen with con-
siderable relish. In justice to these
two organizations it must be said that
their music was an indispensable fea-
ture OF the occasion, bringing forth
many bursts of applause, and serving
to prevent the audience from becoming
wearied during the intermission be-
tween the tableaux. Both bands ac-
Quilted themselves with great credit,
and the community has just reason
to be proud of them. We have al
ready paid compliment to the excel
lent management of the affair by the
ladies of the Church Aid Society, and
we think their lab0rs were rewarded

some sum must have been realized for
the benefit of their church. To give
