The selections, with the exception OF
the chorus, all Of which were good and
well rendered, while they may be and per-
haps are from leading authors and fine
music, were not ola character to be appre.
Ciated by the minority Of those present.
The celebrated prison scene from II Ira.
vat1re" was rendered unusually well, and
deserves special notice. Miss Richards
has q clear strong voice OF good range and
excellently controlled; her articulation
clear and distinct, while her freedom from
afTectation Is especially plain and appro.
pirate in the part OF Leonora. Captain
Dean uses only the chest register OF his
voice, and consequently does not at
tempt the highest notes, but within ii;
range We have seldom heard finer voice:
his articulation, which has heretofore been
his greatest fault, was perfect in this piece,
and very few amateurs could do fuller JUS
tice to Nfanrico The chorus was steady
and in perfect time from the beginning OF
the piece to the end, and was the boss
piece on the programme, but taking the
entertainment us u whole, it reflects much
credit on all connected with it, The re-
ceipts were: Proceeds OF concert, Si3 80,
with donations OF five dollars each from
AIrs. ii. w. Smith and Mr.. and Mrs. Benz.
Exley, ST., making total OF SIS 80. The
expense was 81 so, leaving S57, which was
forwarded by telegraph to the Howard
Association, at Canton, Miss.
Belmont City Lodge /. 0. Q. +. donated
Sl0to brethren at Jackson, Miss,
We are requested to say that any one
wishing to donate money to the sufferers
in the South can leave any amount with
either OF the banks and it will be properly
forwarded.
