DAYTON, KY.-A very delightful en-
tertainment, in every particular, was
that given at the Presbyterian Church
last evening. Mr.. Fred Hasson read
Will Carleton's .Out of the Old House
into the New" in good style and with
excellent effect. His manner was
neither stacy on the one hand, nor want
ing in life on the other. Mr.. Waterhops
read "The Lost Heir" very credItably,
but rather oyerdid the thing on the re-
call, in his recitation Of "Darius
Green" Mr.. Lyman Booths reading
was also much above the average of such
occasions. Alr. Walklv reciled the old
ballad, sour Folks" in a remarkably
clear, correct and impressive manner.
The music was under the direction Of
Professor Stanage, and was all that
could have been desired. ''Too Late,"
the beautiful contralto solo, q very
sweet and touching piece, was admiral y
sung by Mrs. WeImer; 10, How Lovely
is Zion" was also we'll sung, both the
chorus and solo, the latter by Mrs. Bart
lett. Mrs. Weimer and Mr.. TIbbilts
sang duet with such effect that an
encore was demanded, and in response
they gave "Murmuring Sea-" the rem
dering OF which did full justice to the
beautiful selection. Altogether the en-
tortainment was real treat, put as the
programme did not announce supper,
The audience was not as large as it
should have been.
