entertainment, giving some splendid
fuIl cboruses with excellent taste and
effect. The sweet ballads OF Miss
Bella Tausig, and the Vivian sketches
of her little sister, Emma, were ap-
plauded aud cncored. as was also the
iine singing Of Mrs. Luke. Mr.. Dau-
Min sang the baritone solo. "The
Ship on Fire" and Prof. Winkler,
with his admirable bass voice, rem.
dered some German pieces In splendid
style. The cornet solo Of Caspari,
and the cornet duet Of Caspari and
Engelbrecht were we'll received. ia

Parents should never encourage such
melodeonic taste In their little girls,
as 1t caunot possibly have any good
tendency, but quite the contrary. We
make these remarks in the spirit OIL
kindness and hopeful suggestiveness'
There was somewhat Of a wearisome
drag to the entertainment, but this
was much the fault Of the sportive au,
dience, which encored and re-encored
nearly everything that was done.
