Our newly arranged CITY nan was in

Our newly arranged City Hall was in
augurated by an entertainment, given
by the Darlington concert troupe, on
Tuesday evening, the 18th inst. Mrs.
Abbie BeeSon Darlington is by far the
most highly gifted and thoroughly cul-
tured vocalist that our people have
ever heard at home: and even abroad
she ranks with those who have won
the highest honorS- both in America
and the musical countries of Europe.
Her career has just begun. as she has
only been before the public less than
three years. Her birthplace and home
was in Fond du Lac of our ownWiscon-
sin. So that we feel justifiable pride
in her success not only that she is an
American, but daughter of our own
state. Many of our townSmen will re-
member DR.. BeeSon as a former resi-
dent and practitioner in our city. Mrs.
/ Darlington is a sister of DR.. Beeson.
Mrs. Darlington graduated nj the
New England Conservatory in Boston,
where thorough foundation was laid
in her musical education: then she
continued her studies in Italy. that
land of song, with the best masters.
until she had gained all that study and
her masters could do for her Since
her debut she has won the highest
praise in both ballad and opera. and
created a fnrere wherever She has APP
peared. Her voice is not only that Of
great range, comprising the three regis
tiers; but equally full and fresh iii every
mole that she touches. and all touched
and reached with such delicacy that YOU
feel i'll listening to her that there are
great vocal powers beyond those that
ripple and thrill from her throat.
In the the first piece she rendered, \
Polonaise. from Mignon," where her
voice was tested by the fantastic
changes of that composition. not lie
least strain was Visible in her execution
Of it. Then the the encore" Maid of
| Dundee" a simple Scotch ballad, was
as dellciously mpretending as the
rhythm of the song suggests.
Then followed another song from
/" Mignon." /" Knowest Thou the Land.
where both the clear and Sombre tim
bre of her voice was equally full and
round. and her articulation and phra.
sing both distinct and independent
The last song announced in the eve
ning's programme. to be sung by Mrs
Darlington, was " Robins Come" which
by request was changed, and The
i" Flower Girl substituted. In this
the marvellous sweetness and tleXibility
Of her voice almost caused her audi.
ence to hold their breath, that not 4
note should be lost When encored
Mrs. c. sang Il merry rondo, . The
Carrie Dance. This closed one Of the
most satisfactory entertainments ever
given in our city.
Mrs Whitman, a sister Of Mrs. Car
rington, was her aeeompanist ON tht
piano, and also executed some difficult
and brilliant piano solos.
Mr.. Darlington brought down tn,
house with his drum solos and Nylo
phone performance
Mrs. Darlington spoke Of her apprc.
. clative audiece. saying. that before hel
first appearance she had a severe head
ache, but that the sight of such III
earnest sea Of faces banished it at once
We hope that she may return again t
charm our senses with the divine mel
ody of her matchless voice.

THE
Madlsonian, 29th.l
Recess.

On Saturday morning last the I'm Nonted
sight was witnessed of a man trying to trade
off his boots for grub. He procured some
provinder, however, without disposing of
his gravel agitators, and shortly after was
trudging across the divide, hieing toward the
rising sun-Or BoZeman.
We omitted last week to mention the de-
parture for Butte of Mr.. W. &. Pfouts. We
understand he is going into business in the
Silver City. Mr.. p. is one of our best citizens
and will be a valuable acquisition to the bust
ness circles of any place where he may ell
gage i'll commerce.
A citizen told our reporter the other morn
ing that he owned a picture of a snow storm
in the mountains, which was painted so true
to nature that on showing it to Jim Delaney,
just as he was getting ready to start out with
the BOZeman coach, that Jehu Immediately
unhitched his horses and put them back in
the stable, remarking "I1! be ID i'll try
to cross the mountain in that blizzard" The
citizen has been nominated for president of
the Lying Club.
There will be no service in the Grace Nj.
E. Church Tomorrow. The reason is that
the sinners of Butte are so case-hardened that
the preachers are forced to double teams on
them, and Bro. Shannon has been summon
ed to assist in the work of bringing them to a
sense of their need of regeneration. 1t is
consoling that Virginia is so piously in
clined that the gospel dispensers have no
fears III leaving it without spiritual ministra-
tons occasionally.

The liberal patronage extended to the pop
ular French restaurant, having rendered the
premises at present occupied altogether too
small for the business of the house, makes it
necessary that the establishment should be
temporarily closed in order to admit of the
improvements being made.
The proprietor, Mr.. Joseph A. Nadeau,
while returning his most sincere thanks to
the Butte public for the very generous pat
ronage extended to his house in the past,
takes this method of informing his friends.
patrons and the public generally that the res
taurant will be closed from this date, for a
few weeks only, while very important I'M
provements are being made.
Upon the r%e-opening of the establishment,
with a large, well-furnished well-lighled din
ing room, improved ranges and the best of
cooks to be had for money, he hopes that his
efforts to please his patrons will meet with
the same generous and liberal return that has
during the past season been kindly afforded.
