G. Cole presided at the piano with her us
ual skill Mr.. f. H. Caulheld and Miss A.
V. Caulfeld, of New Orleans, rendered
some beautiful selections on violin and pi
ano that won great admiration,
Miss Cole in her charming rendition of
Beautiful Blue Danube. was its conclu-
sion enthusiastically encored and the audi
ence would not be satisfied until she favor
ed them with another piece. The baskets
of choice flowers profusely presented show
ed to a marked degree the appreciation of
the audience.
Miss Clara Stovall in her matchless rendi-
ton of kellogg Waltz, thrilled the au-
dience as but few fair mortals can. She has
Il thoroughly cultured voice, OF great beauty
and volume. She was recalled by hearty
encore, and was the recipient of many
handsome floral offerings.
Miss Copper in the beautiful solo
of Bonnie, Sweet Bonnie, acquitted her
self creditably. She has q clear sweet
voice full of melody, She also was recall
ed by the pleased listeners.
We did not know which to admire most,
Miss Eugenia Richardson's ssvocal rendition
of Tell me tell me Birdie Wild = or
her subsequent piano performance we
are almost persuaded to believe that her tai
ents and proficiency in music was displayed
to greater advantagein instrumental music
The duet by Misses Clara Stovall and LIE
ma Richardson was finely rendered.
Nothing pleased the audience better than
the vocal music of Mr. G. W. Benson, as
was demonstrated by the applause and flor
al gifts He has u voice of superior culture
and power. AS whistling genius he ex,
GELS and can make a hooking bird ashamed
of himself
1t was left to Prof Freyer the inmitable
manipulation of the violin, to bring down
the house in hearty, enjoyable applause.
He had to appear the second time before the
audience would consent for him to retire.
The "Anvil Chorous," by the full num-
Der of participants, was the most gratifying
to our sense of appreciation The piano,
violin, anvil and human voice chimed to-
gether in the sweetest harmony, and was a
fitting conclusion to highly meritorious
entertainment.
