AMUSEMEAIA,


DE-. Won BULow-The third concert of che
series given by DR.. Won Bulow took place last
evening at Grunewald Hall. The selections
were generally from favorite composers, and.
OF course, were splendidly rendered by this
eminent pianist His audience evinced by
loud applause their great pleasure, and the
performer must have felt convinced of the fact
that he had won golden opinions from all his
listeners. We like the arrangement OF bis
programme; the different styles are placed so
as to allow the audience full opportunity Of
approaching and enjoying each without their
being the least interminging Of the beauties
Of either. Miss Cronyn has now become
decided favorite with the audiences VINO attend
these concerts; her we'll modulated and splen-
didly trained voice is used with rare skill and
judgment, and her na0rceaur are all admirably
rendered.
A special matinee will be given to-day, at
noon, for which very enjoyable array OF Sc
lections has been prepared.
THE VARIETIES THEArER.-The interesting
drama of "Christie tombstone was repeated
last evening at this theater by Mrs Chanfrau
and her company. The play is an exceed
ingiy clever one, filed with interesting incl
dents and good situations. The true hearted
and brave fish, wife, Christie tombstone, finds
an admirable interpreter in Mrs. Chanfrau.
whose acting and singing are both very natu-
raj and excellent. The company do them
selves much credit in this play. Mrs. Van
deren and Misses Monk and Long, and Messrs
Burroughs, Mordaunt and Polk are all very
neat in their rsnditions OF the characters as
signed to them, and make up very happy
performance.
To-day the emotional play of "Was She
Right?" will be presented at the matinee. It
is very attractive DRAMA and should attract
q crowded house. "Christie tombstone" will
be repeated in the evening.
The ST. CHARLES THEATEE.-This evening
has been set apart at this theater for grand
complimentary benefit to that efficient officer
and prince Of good fellows, Up. g." some
time known as P. Gleason, E q the gentle
manly and obliging treasurer of the theater.
"P. G." has been with US for twenty five
years, and during that time he has gathered
around him a host Of warm and appreciative
friends, who will doubtless assemble tonight
to do him honor. As the theater is cffsred
for rent next season. it is more than probable
that this will be the last opportunity we shall
have of repaying the many acts of generous
kindness and polite courtesy which this gen.
tleman has done for all who have ever APP
peaed to bis generosity or his kindness

GLoBE.-Ben Gilfoll and the Sewelwyns, in
their character sketches, kept the large audi
ence at the Globe in good humor. In speci-
ally mentioning these talented artists, we by
no means wish to detract from the merits of
the other members of the Globe company, as
they, in their DIFF rent roles, shared in the
applause that was SO LIBERAL. bestowed, but
it was the general opinion of those who were
present last night that Ben Gilfoil and Miss
Sewelwyn were Immense" A glance at to-
nights programme will convince any one that
an enjoyable evening can be spent at the
Globe.
