men acted as judges as on the previous occasion.
SO The lyric and dramatic artists at Music
Hall have been giving a taste OF their quality in
these representation at the Hall. On Saturday
last they gave great pleasure 10 a full house and
repeated the same performance ON the following
Tuesday. Miss Jennie Boyer's vocalization
affords a lyric treat of the first quality. Her
voice has all the strength, richness, sweetness,
and clear bell-toned quality that can be desired.
Her friends say that she was suffering on this
occasion from the effects of sea voyage: and
that this occasioned some nervousness and a
slight depreciation of her usual quality of song.
which however was not recognized by her audi
ence. After singing. .'Toi, que Jaime. enthu-
siastic plaudits brought her, after retiring, again
before the foot lights. Then she sang the sweet
ballad Good Night, " and again the delighted
listeners manifested their appreciation of the
gifted songstress by calling for a second encore.

fine expression, and perfect articulation are de-

The last portion of Saturdays programme was
the drama Good as Gold, - written by Mr.. Edwin
Browne and Mr.. Bower, and first played by the
former gentleman in Chicago, III 1878. Thle
piece illustrates the wild lite of mining camps,
the scene being laid in Montana. 1t affords
opportunity for several striking tableauN, II
which Mr.. Browne appears 1T his best. Somt
of the more striking situations elected mos
little scope for the display of talent on tn
part of those who fill the minor characters, anC
we expect to be more able to do justice to Mr.
Browne and the other members of the COMPANY
after seeing their performance this evening, o
that old, favorite drama, " Uncle Toms Cabin.
The bill of Saturday was repeated ON Iuesda.
TO an audience not so encouraging IN point o
numbers as we could have desired. Unless sucl
enterprise as that of Messrs. Browne an
Black be encouraged, we have no right TO com
plain, as is so often done, of the lack of publ
amusement in Honolulu. On Thursday evenin
an olio bill was put ont. There was n fair aud
ence, and all were sent away much pleased
Tonight, as already mentioned, Uncle Tom
Cabin - will be presented,
Miss Howard, a member Of the dramati
Company, and who admirably supports NJ
Browne in his fine dramatic delineations, is
young lady of very pleasant personal appea
ance, and who gives evidence of careful study
her presentations on the stage. II will be a III
treat this evening to witness the performance
Musical Hall of . Uncle Toms Cabin, by tn
talented Company. Miss Howard takes II
part of Eliza and Cassie.
