THE LYRA CONCERT.


The Iyra concert last night, the first of the
season of 1sS3-S4, brought out large, intel
lgent ana appreeiative audience, the best must
cial gathering that has been seen for many
day. The hall was embellished with plants and
flowers and the seating and stage arrangements
were in all respects admirable The entertain
ment was under the management of the new
director, Prof. W. L. Blumenschein, whose skill
was shown by the admirable manner in which
the choral and orchestral numbers were rem
dered. Mrs, II. Barmeier was in excellent voice
and was warmly cpplauded for her rendition Of
an arietta from ''Mirella." At the conclusion
of the musical programme social dance was
given in which large number participated.
The entertainment was in every way success
and one of which this society, which has greatly
grown du ring the past year in numbers and
efficiency, may well be proud.
