DAYTON, KY.
Moeller's Hall was comfortably filed
last night with a refined and critical
audience, the attraction being the con-
cert by Mrs. Emily Brutton and others,
The entertainment commenced with an
overture "n the piano lOr Iour hands, by
Mrs. h. BruLton and j. F. LeBlond.
Whlcn was cbarmingly rendered and
rlchly deserved an encore, but this
seemed out OF the question with the
audience with the one exception OF los
so. The song ''Dermot Ashore" was
well sung by Mrs. LeBlond. This lady
has pleasing voice. Next came the
renowned T0sso with a solo on the vio-
lin, entitled "New way of giving lessons
in music.'
The Professor said about one hundred
years ago-mOre or less-ne commenced
glVlng lessons in music at Louisville.
His first pupil was a doctor, VINO re-
sided in very small town, in fact so
small 1T had but one house, but the doc
tor thought by adding TO his profession
that OF playing the fiddle, he ould soon
attract settlers and build up the town.
Inc pupli asked his teacher 10 play a
tune, which he did, giving "Wilnln a
Mile OF Edinborough Town" Tne au-
dlence here appeared as anxious as the |
pupil did that The Professor should keep |
on, which he did, giving Funny Pol
ka," "Old Rosin the Bow" with varia-
lions, and Money Musk"
Next on the programme was a duet |
''Home to our Mountdlns," by Mrs. f.
BruttOn and Mr. E. Williams. A piano |
solo by Mr. j. f. LIE eBloud, the song
Farewell my Child" by MIR. E. VIII |
lams, and the song "HaPpy Days OF
ore" by Mrs. E. BruJton, ali OF Whicn |
we're admirably rendered, and next |
came the lulmitable rendering of the |
Arkansas Traveller, or, rosso's Adven-
lures i'll Texas" which Kept the au-
dlence in the best OF humOr during It's |
rendition, and when The Professor re-
tired the audience insis led that he |
should reappear, which he did, giving |
the "Last Rose of Summel" in such IL
feeling manner as he only can.
