Blind Tom Coming.

On Thursday evening next the wonder
ful blind pianist and musical prodigy,
Blind Tom, appears at the Rutland Opera
House IN one of his entertaining concerts,
The New York Sim gives a good idea of
his playing in the following
That curious compound of imbeclity
and talent Blind Tom, gave the first of n
series of three concerts ut Steinway Hall
last evening. Although the whole care of
entertaining the audience devOlyed on Tom,
there being no other performer, the concert
was not in the least dull, or even monoto-
nous.
Those who have the direction o. the
matter have managed TO present varied
programme, consisting not only of the
pianofortc playing but of many curious
examples of Toms great faculty of imlta-
ton, such for instance as his rcmembrances
of banjo and guitar playing, the singing of
an old hurdy-gurdy woman, the starting of
n steam train, the whistle of the locomo-
tive and the putting ON of the brakes.
The last imitation is done by the voice and
not with the piano.
Another thing that makes these concerts
interesting is the entire naturalness of the
exhibition. Tom is free and easy to the
last degree, applauding himself, spinning
about on one leg and chuckling idotically.
There Is about the poor fellow n simple
kindliness of manner and good nature that
makes his audience well disposed toward
him. Whatever he does is performed with
ease and facility, and there Is not only none
of the restraint and fornality of an ortll
nary concert, but there is no striving TO dc
| n fine thing or produce fine effect. Tho
half-wlttcd pianist has happily not brains
enough for any display of vanity.
