ADJUSTMENTS.
Concert


At Gaines Institute postponed to
January 3Ist.
The HibernicOn
wound up the canvass last night, having
given seven exhibitions during the
week, that were much appreciated and
well attended. McEvoy travels hence
Southwark, and can claim fine audien-
ces on the ground of having a very
meTitOriOus show.
Bali.
The ball Of the Memphis Bruderbund
will take place Tuesday evening, De
cember oath, in Cochran Hall. The
Committee of Arrangements are gentle
men who will be sure to make the mat

able way to spend Christmas Eve.
Grand Operahouse.
Hnpfy Dumpty gathered up the
fragments of his physiOgnomy from the
belittered boards of the Grand Opera
house, and giving his last winning
smile to a Memphis audience, disap-
peared behind the falling curtains at
eleven o'clock. That last facial eontOr-
ton winds up Fox's engagement in
Memphis, where he did infinite good to-
ward the promotion Of digestion. We
can heartily indOrse the whole company
as first-class in their several depart !
ments, and hope that success may at |
tend them in their downward trip to |
the Gulf
Major McCIun.'s Benefit.
Tomorrow night the Treasurer of the |
Grand Operahouse takes a benefit. The |
programme for the night will be a good |
one, and we know that an appreciative |
audience will oe present to do honor to |
the performance. We hope that there .
will be a rousing house, and that our
Operah use Treasurer will receive a |
mark Of public favor and appreciation,
which his efforts to please since the |
Operahouse opened well deserve. The |
play at the Grand OperahOuse to- |
morrow night will be Damon and |
Pgthids. This will be the Treasurer's
benefit.
The Fair.
For the benefit of the orphans, an an /
nual fair in which all the Catholic |
churches will participate will be open in .
Assembly Hall tomorrow night. Not /
merely the attractions of the hall and |
the gaiety of the season, but the COM
mon conviction that a Christian duty
devolves on the people to support those /
orphans, viii influence the people to /.
give a generous support to the ladies
who have undertaken the festival, and |
thus make it a financial SUGGESTIVE |
only end aimed at by those who have |
the care of the little ones. Incidentally, /
of course, there viii be plenty of amuse-
ment and much fun every night.
Memphis Theater.
Mr. Frank Mayo, the distinguished /
young tragedian, closed a successful en-
gagement at the Memphis Theater last
evening. Although the night was
one of the coolest of the season, the
attendance was good. During the week
Mr.. Mayo has appeared in a series of
characters to great advantage, and last
night he enacted Shakespeare's great
pOrtraiture Of Richard the Third. His
scene with Lady Anne" Miss Haw-
thOrne) was one of rare excellence, and
in the more passionate passages he
played with the very greatest spirit, and
was again and again applauded, and re-
ceiyed couple Of calls before the cur
tain. He was well supported by Miss
Hawthorne, Miss frankie Mcclellan,
Mr.. J w. Hill, Mr.. George Morton and
Mr.. w. J. Ferguson. Mr.. Mayo will
leave to-day for Louisville to play an
engagement. Tomorrow evening the
very amusing New York sketch, entitled
Under tie Gaslight, with Mr.. Charles
Pope as the star, supported by Miss Katie
Mayhem, Mr.. Rainforth and other mem
bers of the st. Louis dramatic company,
viii be produced.
