Z Pleasant Evening

Sunday evening at the B. B. hall in the
temple on Commerce street, the Young
Mems Hebrew association gave its first and
Chanuhhoh entertainment TIE room was
filed with members OF the Jewish congrega-
ton and number of other ladies and zen.
tlemen, too, to hear the exercises. The even
ing's performance commenced with an over
ture on the piano, one of Rossini's compost
tons, by Messrs. II Fries and Il. Friebsrg,
jr. 1t was beautiful selection and most ar
,istically rendered by these gentlemen, both
superb pianists Mr.. H7schberg followed
with the opening address in which he re-,
viewed the history OF the association, and in
forcible manner detailed the advantages to
follow and the benefits TO accrue, if the mem.
bers of the association would show proper
interest and strive 10 mske il a success. A
duett by Misses NJ and Z Wolf WINS next on
the programme, aud these young ladies
charmed the audience win their sweet sing
ing. A recitation by Mr.. E. Rosenthsl,
(which Oue of the Boys ar YOU was hap.
PLY delivered, and the humour of the selection
was much appreciated. Miss Emma Open.
helm sang song,"Wh n tue Tide Comes In"
o manner ut once artistic and de-
lightful. This young lady has an
exceedingly nlelodiOus voice, well
under control, aud she threw into it
the sad pathos Of the lines of the song, and
one could almost see the dead form II the
loved and lost hat the cruel tide hal borne
to the shore. The reading, by Mrs, A. Sanger,
Of "A poem, a description of "A hospital scene,
was flushed piece Of elocution. This lady
possesses, to al eminent degree, that rare
accomplishment CT reading we'll. She not only
showed an appreciation Of tbs lines herself,
but rendered them SO as To rivet the attention
of her hearers and readily reach their under
standing. There are SO few people who can
read correctly, who re ID us they talk, that il
is q real pleasure to near one who can, A
grand Duet by Mrs. Goldsmi and Miss L
Oppenheim followed. II was delci us music.
and met with hearty applause. Mr. A.
Schneider, with German recitation, made Il
decided hit. Oar report r u. fortunately could
not understand the words, but the dramatic
talent evinced by Mr.. Schneider was Of no
ordinary degree. He was sncored TO the echo,
indeed the audience would not be satisfied
until he responded with second recitation,
which was just as happy rs the first one, An
iEtermi4siou of ten minutes h6re ensued, when
Professors Bauer snd Fries favored the com.
pany with selection On the violin snd piano.
Both these gentlemen are so well known Ms
musicians OF the highest merit, that remarks
are u necessary. An address by Mr..
CharleE L. Martin, Of the HERALD editorial
staff, on The Cultivation OF the Mind fol.
lowed. Miss Muna Woiitben delighted the
audience with song. 1t is seldom that a
sEeeter or better trained voice is heard than
this lady's. 1t is rich soprano, and her
singing is not mere cultivated utterancs Of
the notes, but it has music in its every tone,
melody in It's every modulation. Miss VOL
was also the recipient Of an encore and re
sponded. Rev. DR.. Bien WAS billed for II
address, but instead Of a set effort, he in
dulged in few extempore r0marrs pertinent
to the occasion md the objects Of the associ
alton. Mrs. l. Glslin next sang song,
delicious rendering of sweet music that cap
tivated all hearers and secured wha
it merited, an enthusiastic encore
to which the lady responded by re
peating the last verse of the song
Mr.. B. Hirschberg then gave a humorou
recitation, going through the entire perform
ance of debating society, personating tn
president and each debater. The gentleman
is possessed of exquisite powers as mimic
and took off the debating society to perfec
ton. The exercises of the evening close
with selection from La Sonnsmbuls, b
DR.. Bien, on the violin, and Professor Baue
on the piano. DR.. Bien is master of tn
violin, and he entertained the company de
lightfully with his sweet playing. Tho OF
casion was decided success, and every on
present was well pleased, and showed tn,
they had spent most enjoyable evening
4 The object of the Young Mems Hebrew a
ISOLATION is for mutusl Improvement, ment
and literary cultivation. This certainly
laudable and worthy of all encouragement
and commend ton. The HERALD tende
its bet wishes for IN eminent SUCCESS in o
the efforts of the association toward the enc
