Miss Annie a. Shield,
We have often before spoken common
datory OF the musical entertainments 81
numerously provided by Mrs, sheib, ant
scarce know what to most admire, he
aputy Ur perseverance, In getting up 81
many pleasurable musical eVenipgs bu
the result shows that her ability Ia owiHI
TO her very thorough musical education
acquired in this country and In Europe
and her perseverance, TO her and her hua
banda innate love Tor music.
Last nights entertainment given GU
Legislators aud their friends wls no excep
ton to the average OF Mrs, sheib's soirees
but as to its grace one OF the best Of tn
season. The programme was partly mad
up Of selections 30 enthusiastically re
ceiyed at the recent "song Recital" givel
at Germania Hall, but charm
ling additions were made Il
that excellent programme, one oil the bes
being the ave Maria" by Luzzi, 10
which an organ part was specially writtel
Tor this occasion by MI. W. Fl, She'll
This selection, as also the last ope, wa
given with truely grand effect, and sll
passed the expectations Of those iamilia
with It in other forms. Mrs. shelb san
beautifully, her cultivation aud goo
schooling enable her to sing through
programme, so varied In style as this was
wit6 the greatest success and without or
parent effect That she Is highly ep
preCiated, the warm admiration felt 10
her duly evidences.
MlsS Ida V. Todd, Of Bridgeport, as
sisted Mrs. sheib with several accompani
ments in musiClanly style and played he
piano solo very beautifully and effectively
Prof, Vaas Is one OF our best ylolinistt
and his brilliant execution Of his yioliI
solos and the exquisite violin accompanI
ments TO Mrs. sheib's songs, were enioye
thoroughly by tho AUDIENCE,
OtMr. Todd's Cornst solos, there wa
but one verdict, and that was that the
were delightful throughout, both as to eS
preston and execution. His tone is goo
and pure, his runs and roulades near pei
perfection aud we hail our old friend 10
as one OF the best gorRet sololsts 10 thl
section. Once the audience had gotte
fairly warmed up, the most enthusiast
applause greeted tho performances, an
encores being demanded go determInealy
Mrs. Sheib sang as enaores "Old Folks
Home" and "Wilhin Mile oil Edinboro;
Prof. Was played "slumber Song" b
Hauser, as an encore piece, and Mr.. Tod
responded with the melody, "safe in tn
Arms OF Jesus" To sum up, no one pres
ent left the Hall o, the House oil Delegate
last night with other than the most IN
bounded admiration OF the ladies and ger
tleman who gave this entertainment
Very properly mention is due Mr., Fran
MC6onaughy for his excellent piano &C
compartments, and 10 the effective orgal
playing OF Mr.. W. II. sheib.
