The Grand Gift entertainment
Prizes Drawn-MaIinee This After
noon.
The grand gift entertainment by the Ford
Dramatic Association last evening was
perfect success. and the Theatre was filed
to its utmost capacity, and even standing
room was at q premium. The entertain
ment opened with the dramatic scene en-
titled "The saracen Brothers," in which
Messrs. j. NJ. johnson, Joseph A. O'Byrne
and Harry Zeigler appeared. The scene
between "Saladin" and "Malek Ashel," by
Messrs. johnson and O'Byrne, was very
effectively rendered, and was greeted with
applause.
1.-The Lovers Call" an original song and
chorus by Mr.. F. J. Ruckert, was eapitally
rendered, and was complimeDted with an
encore. The duet by Messrs. Ruckert and
Gustsve Fox on the Zithern was very fine,
and was highly appreciated.
The announcement was made by Philip
NJ. Russell, Esq, in behalf of the associa-
ton, that, in consequence OF circumstances
over which they had no control, the farce
announced on the bills would be omitted.
In lieu thereof, Mr.. Stumps, Of Baltimore,
bad kindly consented to give a German reci-
tation.
Mr.. stumps first gave a sketch called
Deceived, or the Tooth Pick" then an imi-
tation of German temperance lecturer,
and an Irishmsn taking his sweetheart to
the theatre for the first time.
The attractive feature of the evening was
the appearance Of the Veteran Guards Ca
diets, commanded by Capt. Frank Molina,
assisted by the Republican Blues Brass
Band, with the irrepressible Mr.. J. G. Shaw
as drum major. The band were in the full
uniform OF the corps and presented
an attractive appearance, and the Cadets,
sixteen in number, were out in a neat and
tasty uniform, specially designed, and their
execution of various original military evo-
buttons was admirable and elected frequent
and enthusiastic applause. It was one of
the best drills of the kind ever seen on our
stage and reflected infinite credit on the
association. In fact the Cadets carried the
house.
The flute solo Of Signor Ferrszzi was very
fine, and the orchestra playing was excel
lent. The orchestra was under the direc-
ton of Signor Ferrazzi, and was composed
of Masters Herman ard Elliott Mayer and
Edward Conner and Mr.. F. j. Ruckert. Miss
NJ. Wechsler presided at the piano. The first
named are pupils Of Prof. Ferrazzi, and
their playing attested the efficiency of his
instruction.
At the close OF the entertainment the
drawing for the prizes took place. There
were two wheels, one containing $50 prize
numbers, ard the other 1000 numbers, du-
plicates of the tickets sold. The drawing
was conducted nv a committee composed of
