anxious about other pastimes, need

Stabat Mater.

The rendition Of Rossini's great
religious production, the "Stabat
Mater" at st. Peters church last
night by the choir Of that sacred edi-
fee, was praiseworthy effort, and
the work was received by the audience
with much favor. In view Of the
stormy state of the weather large
number Of people were prevent
ed from attending, and it
is to be hoped that the choir will be
induced to repeat the oratorio at an
early day. It was understood this
forenoon that the matter was under
consideration, and that it was ques-
tioo of doubt as 20 whether or not Il
will be tried again. As large num-
Der OF visitors will be here next week
to attend the races, and as there will
be no amusements on several
evenings, it would certainly be oppor-
tune to give the oratorio again. with
such outher choice selections as would
make up an attractive programme.
The Mask Bali
At the Exposition Building next
week bids fair to be one of the events
likely to draw large gathering.
Many people who are fond Of particle
pating in this kind of amuse.
ment are exerting their efforts
to contribute to the success Of
the ball, and the managers are like
wise bending their energies in the
same direction. A ball of this charac
ter is sure to afford a fund of sport
and amusement.
Cherry and Fair Star.
On Tomorrow evening the pupils Of
Madame Louis, the terpsichorean
instructor, will present at Leubrie's
Theatre a grand spectacular drama in
two acts, entitled Cherry and Fair
Star" There will be fancy dancing,
and tableaux with other brilliant
features, all under the auspices OF
Madam Louis and Mrs. Rose P.
Thompson The object of the enter
tainment on the part of the pupils OF
Madam Louis, is to pay substantial
compliment to their admired in
structor, and it bids fair to be a very
attractive as well as a successful
affair.
The Mozart Concert.
The second concert of the season
will be given by the Mozart Society at
Leubrie's Theater to~night,a and bril-
liant programme has been arranged
for the occasion. The numbers in
clude selections from MendeIssohn,

entertainment.

A Negro Rarber,s Lin.

n Negro bhrDer'B Llps
During the trial Of Fred Sutherbera
this morning for an assault upon the
chamhermaid of his hotel, negro
barber was put on the stand
or the defense, and was
questioned in an entirely legitimate
and respectful manner by the attorney
Tor the defense. The negro answered
10 an insOlent manner, mixing up the
family Of the attorney with that Of the
girl on trial. He did this repeatedly.
and at last was warned not again TO
allude to the attorneys family, as they
had nothing to do with the case. TIE
negro insisted upon doing so, and by
an effort that few Of the spectators
could understand or appreciate, the
attorney retrafned from knocking the
negro down and inopping the Aoor
with him. A fine Of ten dollars was
imposed on each, but RENTED on
condition they would purge" them
selves OF contempt. The niger went
up to the rail, rested his chin upon it,
rolled his eyes up at the Judge,
grinned, and asked If he must do it in
open court. YES" said the Judge,
and the barber, grinning after the
manner oil his progenitors, made the
following brilliant speech; II polo
gige in open couFt for anything I've
did" The fine was RENTED The
attorney simply stated that he had
always endeavored to respect the
Court, and that in this instance be
thought he was justified IN doing all
he did. Those who witnessed this
mornings affair will hear him out in
his statement Ofbeing quieter In Court
than II waa human nature to be. Hil
fine was also RENTED.
