 THE FLORENCE FAIRCHILD CONCERT.
 Last evening the Florence Fairchild Cos tune Concert company gave their first con- cert at Peck's Grand Opera House to fair audience, considering the state of the weath- CT. Miss Fairchild is a beautiful woman. who displayed several very rich and elegant costumes, sang nicely and with much drama tic action, and showed herself in the balcony scene from t'Romeo and Juliet' to be an &C., tress of unusual ability. Mr. Alfred H. Pease played two solos on Haines upright piano. Liszt's 'sRhapsodie Hongroise, No. 6'' received a double encore. He deservedly ranks among the best pianists of the day. MT. George S. Weeks is pleasing tenor, with rich, full voice. MT. Carlos Hassel- brinck, a young South American violinist, is a thorough artist, and his rendering of Leon- ards Souvenir de Haydn" was deservedly encored. The costuming was elegant and appropriate, and the concert, if such it may be called, was just sufficiently popular in character to be bright and interesting throughout. This evening the same compa- ny will give another concert at the same place. with change of programme On this occasion Mir. E. A. Parsons, of the New Haven Conservatory of Music, will play duet for two pianos with Mr. Pease. There should be large house.
 JACK SHEPPARD IN NEW HAVEN.
 The play of Jack Sheppard that is proba- ply as well known as Uncle Toms Cabin, and which seems to possess nearly as much popu- larity, is to be produced in great magnif- cence at Carlrs Opera House on Saturday, WAoA SAAO P0AAOAAAdAOC5 VIII DO gwen, one III the afternoon and the other in the evening. The company will be very large one and we are promised new costumes and scenery, one of the stage pictures painted by Henry Hoyt, of Booths Theatre, to represent old London of 1733 at midnight, with St. Paups cathedral, ,Newgate prison, London bridge and many of the houses on the bank of the Thames illuminated, and above all the moon shining brightly and tipping the nipples of the dark flowing river with its silvery rays The effect is said to be very beautiful. The story of the play is said to be very moral one, the author endeavoring to impress upon the youth of the land the admonition that a l career of crime, however fascinating it may be, is in reality hard to those who bear it and l quite sure to end in infamy or death. The hero of the play will be impersonated by Miss Jennie 9eamans, a dashing young actress and | vocalist, and the company in all numbers twenty-three people. The piece is in itself very attractive entertainment, but to make of full houses doubiy sure the managers announce very popular prices, the admission to be,25, 35 and 50 cents with no 1 sxtrs charge for reserved seats
