A Grand Dress.

The Camilla Urso concert, to take
place here Saturday evening, will he in
teresting to the ladies III regard to the
toilettes as well as music. The New
York sun says of one of Madame Urso's
dresses:
1t has become customary with the in.
teaviewing journalists of New York, 10
report the contents of the artists trunks
and gushingly describe the various
dresses, jewels, etc, as matters of news
1t is surprising that with their usual
keen scent of anything sensational, that
Madame Urso escaped the annoyance OF
visit from this class of news hunters
and more particularly rs she has brought
with her from Paris one of the most re.
markable dresses that has ever been i'm
ported, the regal splendor and magnifi-
cencc OF which is almost beyond dc.
scrirtion, suggesting 10 the spectator the
possibility al the wearer having been
shOwered with diamonds, which became
entangled, aEd remained in The most
beautiful embroidery, delighting the be.
holders. This remarkable piece of ward
robe was designed by Roberts Bros, OF
Rue Richeleiu, Paris, who, by the way
are the designers of the robes and dresses
for which Worth gets so much credit
Madame Urso refused to state the cost OF
this astonishing dress, but it cannot have
cost less than three thousand dollars, and
our estimate would place il much high
er. IL will undoubtedly be a source OF
much envy To her lady audiences.

The pound orlinace should I've thor
oughlY enforced. The cow and horse
nuisance is Lecoming unbearable. We
speak plainly, because there is no use in
trifling with the matter. Are we to have
shade trees, fences, sidewalks and a beau
tiful, comfortable, attractive city? or are
we to live in big COW yard? That is
the question, and the time has come when
one of these two policies must be perma-
nently adopted. Due notice has been
gived of the ordinance. so that all who
desired il, have had time to build a
cow yard or provide some means of keep
ing their cows shut mp. The grass is al
ready beginning to grow on the prairIcs,
and boys will soon he ready To drive the
cows out 10 pasture-in the morning and
bring them in IN the evening, for "A mod

is easier for many COW owners, but it is
so great an injury 10 the city in general
that all should acquiesce in a new and
bette: method. The ordinance should
he duly enforced, and we trust TO see
thousands Of shade trees planted along
our streets this season.

The main feature of the evening consist
ed of dialogues, which were, in fact, too
numerous to mention-at least all OF
them. 1.-THE Farm Hand" by Messrs Bish.
ops, Wells, Hollingsworth and Roberts,
assistedby Misses Cannon and Roberts
was one of the most laughable of the ev-
ening. THE Tetotalers' was also well
acted and showed up the hollowness of
some people who talk SO loud in public
about temperance and have at the same
time bottle hid in some clark recess. 4"
Song, 'In the Star Light" by Misses Ire
land and Reecer was well executed
and highly entertaining. During a short
recess the audience was favored with q
song by Misses Scott, Roberts and Ire
land, which was duly appreciated. After
recess dialogue entitled "Sylvia's Sol
der" was acted by Mr.. S. Burns, c. Ire
land and II. HollingswOrth, assisted by
Misses MOllie Ireland and Beulah Reec-
er. 1t was well performed and quite en-
tertaining, but rather lengthy for an ex-
hibition exercise. The entertainment
closed with song entitled "Good Night''
by Messrs. Hollingsworth and A. and H.
Wells assisted by Misses Scott, Roberts,
Hurlburt and Mrs. A. Wells.
The exhibition was managed by Mr..
Wells, teacher of the school, and was a
creditable affair. The crowded condition
of the house mnde it rather disagreeable,
not only TO the performers but the spec
tatOrs as well.
Mr.. Wells has conducted a successful
school and deserves the thanks of all
his patrons. j. HAwKER.
