ADJUSTMENTS.
The ThoRfar

The Chapman Sisters drew another very fine
house last night. The sparkling burlesque of
Aladdin was produced in capital style, the trio
of Sisters, appearing to splendid advantage,
and singing the music incidental to the oper-
eta with a sterling effect. The graceful and
Ella received triple encore. Mr.. Ed. Chap
man as widow Twankay," Mr.. George Den
ford az HAbsnnsza- ~ ali contrib-
uted their fuu share of the fun,
andsthe burlesque was received with shouts Of
laughter and applause. Tonight the Chap
man Sisters will take a farewell benefit, when
the commeditta of CheckHl0te and the bur-
lesque of Fra DfdUolO will be presented. AS
ing, dancing and acting, have rendered them
selves general favorites, their benefit win
doubtless be a bumper.
MRnnerehOr Mask en- Bale,
Last night Cochran hall was the
scene OF a grand and magnificent masquerade
ball, given by the German M0sanerchor. We
have never attended a more agreeable or
brilliant masquerade than was that OF the
ERnnerchOT, whose members have wonder
ful adaptation for conducting their entertain
ments in such an excellent manner as to
prove agreeable to every visitor. The various
tic, but the most tasteful and appropriate
on the whole, OF any collection
that we have seen this season. For this the
managers of the AgnnerchOr deserve the
greatest praise. About eleven o'clock the
terpSic korean exercises were, for while, re-
mitted TO give place to the celebration OF
the people OF Wurtenbe berg. We mean the
baptism of a child " in accordance with the
rites and customs Of 1" the country people,"
The music was, for awhile, hushed, and very
amonk Mr.. Carl Fischerl, attired in the Gus
tomary black robes, with a cross suspended
appeared in front of procession composed
OF nicely dressed villagers The process
sion, which was headed by the gOdmOther
and godfather, the grandmother and grand
father OF the infant to be baptized, In the
procession we also noticed, as prominent "the
first persons of the village" and. aall" of the
school children. A white banner bore the in
scrlptiOn htnQtduJ Isl huet. When the process
sion had taken its proper position, the monk
Mr.. Fischer, delivered the requisite discourse
incident 10 such occasions, commencing by
1Cdret thr .dile jd SchOn beeSdmmen Leid atbstr-
nllGlhi0 iSti0 kttHert eih nicht uFl as LLefL der
Leet, etc. The baptism was truly interesting,
and the monk lectured the children upon the
impropriety OF conversing aloud in
church in relation to secular mat
Gretchen Complained while in Church -
marguerite that Hans would not take her to
the Cochran hall ball. lLaughter.l He gave
wholesome advice to the school girls, whom
he advised not to encourage the visits and at
tentions of young men, unless they intended
TO marry them. The lecture was enjoyed very
much, and, at its conclusion, dancing was re-
sumed and continued until a late hour.
