THE EASTER MONDAY CONCERT The
Easter concert last evening at TIE NJ. Z.
Church South drew full house. 1t was an
amateur musical success in all respects. All
who appeared seemed to be especially happy
in their efforts. Miss Mary Milliken sang
Molloy's kerry Dance" in fine voice, and
responded to an encore with 'Chickadee."
H. O. White recited in costume eXcellently a
new travesty on Sheridan's ride, and for an
encore gave comic dialect-song well. Miss
Gertie Gerrish played 1.-The Pasquinade, y
by Gottschalk, with taste and expression,
and responded to recall. Mr.. Freeman
sang feelingly go, Fair Dove" and declined
an encore. The Orpheus Club, eighteen
voices, Carl Wieger director, sang Franz
Abt's Waldandacbt," and responded to an
encore. The Club thus made its first ap-
pearance in public concert, and created q
very favorable impression as to its capacity.
It is under good drill and sings with pre-
cision and breadth of expression. w. d.
Grove and w. o. Bowers, by request, gave
the familiar duet, ''Larboard Watch" in
good voice and won deserved recall, but
declined it. Miss Wilsey, in strong, fresh
voice, gave excellently Abt's Tell Me- o
Bind of the Greenwood" and responding to
warm applause sang Scotch ballad. Mr..
DeYoe. in even better voice than usual, sang
The Old Sexton, and THE Holy FRAN" on
recall, both being rendered in q superior man
ner. Messrs Mohr Flohr, Krebs, Hebron
and Fritz sang "The Hunters JOY"
and replied to an encore, both being
given with much power and sweet
ness. Miss Lucy G. O'Brien recited Bun
gaya's " Creed of the Bells" trying selec
tioll, which she accomplished in successful
manner, and for which she was applauded
long and loudly. 1t was an elocutionary eff
fort of decided merit. Miss Daisy Siddons
made her first appearance with piano solo
Wouenhaupt's Last Smile" Her playing
surprised the audience by its correctness and
excellence, and she was recalled and gave va
riations on bonnie Doom" The concert
closed with Kreuzer's Staendchen," by the
Orpheus Club. Miss Gertie Gerrish and Mrs
