LAST NleHr's CoscERr. concert

at the Opera House last night, compli
mentary 10 Prof. A. s. Roe, Jr.. was
not as we'll attended as it should have
been, nor indeed as it would have been
had the weather been cooler and had
our music loving people more fully re.
covered from the beslthful fatigue OIL
the picnic on the preceding day. As
it was, Professor Roe has good reason
to feel proud OF the compliment bestow-
ed upon him by those present, and we
believe that the entire audience was
thoroughly gratifed by the music pre-
scented. The following programme was
observed:

!, Mr.. Hornbrook.
. Wehave neither time for writing nor
space for publication Of a criticism Of
each particular performance. In our
memorandum marked upon the pro-
gramme, Hail, Festal day" is noted as
very good; the vocal duettee, "Oh,
Earth Farewell" was very well rem
dered; the vocal solo Thou Everywhere
with Eberliog's violin ACCOMPANYING Mt
elected much applause; and the next
piece, THE flower Greeting" was very
admirably sung. The solo from Judith
by Miss Rose McNsughton was really
the gem Of the evening, aud Miss Elite
Roemer's solo Fair EDchantress,"
was manifcent, while Mrs. Horn
brooks "Cavatina" from Sonnambula,
was really excellent and called forth
many well earned tributes OF genuine
regard.
In fact the entire programme was e1-
cellently performed, the instrumental
pieces deserving no less praise than the
vocal. and all of the singers meriting
much commentator.
The Opera H ouse last night was full
OF flowers. Nearly every lady had a
bouquet which was bestowed upon the
fsvorite singer or instrumental
performer, and some of the Ia
dies went from the stage we'll
ladened with the floral offerings OF
their friends. Mrs. Hornbrook recelv-
ed a magnificent basket of flowers.
The concert was, considering all the
circumstances, complete success, and
expressed the appreciation felt by the
people for a generous and enthusiastic
artist such as they have found in the
person of Professor Roe. We hope he
may stay with us.
