The concert of the Princeton College Gloe
club did not receive the patronage that IL do
served, and yet the attendance at Lincoln
hall last night was goodly ono The pro.
gramme was well selected embracing college
gees part songs, and choruses, every num-
Der of which was we'll rendered. Tho audience
was decidedly enthusiastic, and nearly every
selection was encored In the matter of bal
ance of parts, precision, and delicacy of phras-
ing the Princeton club is superior to any
college organization that has appeared in this
city, and the members show the careful drill
ing of their leader, Mr.. Robert r. shanklin.
The warbling Of Mr.. French, the solo
of Mr.. Bradley, and the piano playing
Of Mr.. Nassau were all thoroughly apprc-
cated. After the concert was over Mr.. Allen
Arthur who is u Princeton man, entertained
the club at lunch at the executive man
sion, where several songs were sung, and
an hour or SO passed most pleasantly.
