The Baptist festival last evening was
quite successful, though the rain dimin-
ished the attendance somewhat. The
"Twin Sisters" was very prettily pre-
sented. The principal parts were taken by
Misses Hattie Edison and Eva Horner, who
both sang charmingly as usual, while the
other parts were well filled, though less
prominent. Some of the choruses were
very pretty and the entire oreretta went off
without break of any kind. Among the
especially good numbers were the rectative
and chorus by Miss Edison and the May
party, Miss Horner's two solos, the chorus,
"Come Hither Timid Minstrell," and the
duet by Misaes Edison and Homer, which
was the gem of the evening. The "Twin
Sisters" will be repeated tonight, and is
we'll worth hearing.
