Tho G. G. Choral club gave their second
concert at Lincoln hall last night, and tho
fine programme presented and the largo
audience in attendance made the occasion an
enjoyable one. This is the third season of
this organization, and tho marked improve
mont which it shows is fino tribute to
the skill and efficiency of its
leader, Mr.. Theodore ingalls, King.
All tho numbers in which the club partici-
pated were we'll rendered. Tho most ambi-
tious selection on the programme was the
unfinished opera, "Lorelie" by Mendelssohn
the numbers of which were most effectively
given, particularly the ave Maria " and the
Vintage Song" The former is for female
voices, and the solo was sung by Miss Eva
Mills exquisitoly; tho latter is for male

aud vigor. Tho other numbers by the

playing barytono voice of good capabilities,
and Misses Eva Mills and Emma Detweiler,
both of whom received merited encores.
THE NoRTHcoTT CONCERT.
The concert at the Congregational church
last night by tho Northcott combination was
not SO well attended as the merits of the en-
tertainmont justified. Mr.. Northcott proved
himself cornetist of decided ability, and his
efforts were emphatically applauded. Mr..
Rudolph Thaler displayed considerable
mastery of the piano, and his per-
formance was marked by precision
and delicacy Of phrasing that were enjoyable
The other mombers of tho combination, Miss

gramme was selected to please the popular
TASTE and the applause was quite liberal.
