The rowdy mars the enjoyment of most
public entertainments. His swagger and
push and insolence in crowding in, his de-
| termination to get into the best place, and
| his monopoly Of all the foot and elbow
room around him are familiar to all He
must have something 10 chew, his jaws
are in perpetual motion. He eats peanuts,
| and is noisy and conspicuous and demon
strative. He whistles and stamps his feet,
| and his laugh is loud. He applauds with
/ all the noise of which he is capable. He

should not find out that he is musical he
can't be quiet and respectful, even when q
good thing is going on. he sneers at and
makes grimaces, and is not too modest to
make free comments on the performers
He does not know enough to know that

The concert by Donavin's Tenneseeans
last Wednesday evening was very much
/ like the others given here by colored
troupes. The Soprano solos particularly
were rendered. in good style, and were
highly appreciated. The Representations
of negro devotional singing and worship
by Mr.. Preston, was said in the main to be
not oYerdone, but there was more than
enough of 1t. The troupe were good look
ing and wen behaved, and their voices
harmonized WELL All their finest effects
were obtained by the low and soft refrains
mostly in minor key, and the careful
outstanding of voice so that the tones faded
gently into silence Their kind of sing
ing is always popular with the masses, and
though there was q largely attended polit
ical meeting the same evening near by
the concert Hall was closely packed.
