BAREEsyILLE, March II.
The concert given Saturday evening
was greeted by good audience, who
were well entertained. The performance.
however, became tedious before termlna-
ting. The instrumental pieces were all
well rendered, and showed care in their
practice, the leading feature seeming to
be the performances OF the real little
folks, rs but few difficult compost
tlons were presented. OF the little
folks there were Misses Minnie
Collins, Rosa Frost and Grace
Kelley, who did particularly well. Prob.
sbly the most enjoyable ieslure OF the
evening was the producing OF the piece
OF music entitled "Li.t to the Convent
Bells" by Misses Kemp and Thornberry,
both OF these little ladies having sweet
and melodious voices, and will 10 time, il
properly trained, take prominent posi-.
tious as entertaining yocalists. The quar-
tette, composed Of some Of our leading
singers, gave two selections that were
pleasing 70 all hearers. A violin solo by
Prof Collins was perfect piece OF music
and proved conclusively the Professors
natural ability, and caused gentle
movement OF feet, keeping time, through
the hall, indicative Of the charms aud
power OF music The concert was
given By the musical society Of this
place and they have 10 reason 20 ieel
