tainments given by the ladies of the Catholic
Church on Friday and Saturday evenings
last. The weather was decidedly unpleasant,
and hence the attendance was not so large as
was expected. On Friday evening those in
attendance were favored with superior mu-
steal programme, under the dictatorship of
Prof. j. B. Dalelden. Miss Emma Kleinfeldt's
performance upon the piano was superb and
brilliant. Among her selections "Siyery
Waves" "Rolling Billows," and "Charge of
the Hussars." Mrs. Schwartz and Prof Da-
eden favored the company with gallop-four
hands in the vigorous and perfect time of
those players. Miss Katie Cantwell sang in
a charming manner, Strangers Yet, ""Come
with me- and "Ah haye sight" Julius
Low also assisted i'm the musical entertain
ment with some finely executed pieces on the
violin, accompanied with the piano by Prof
Daleden. Saturday evening, about O'Clock,
Miss Yungfeish and Messrs. George Yung-
flesh, Julius Low and AL. Sander supplied
some pleasant dance music, and the young
folks trippcd the light fantastic for about 8
hours. We have not learned the amount
