The Places where the un-Loving Par, OF
the Community Gathered.
On Wednesday evening the Mnuner.
chor gave their regular Thanksgiving eve
concert and sociable ia their hall. The
attendance was larger than at any similar
evening for a long time. The concert
came of first and 1t is thought that 1t was
the finest ever given by the society. The
orchestra was very large and was composed
of some of the oity's best musicians, with
Prof Carl Matz as conductor. The sing
| ing of the society and the solos of Nine.
Matz and II. Schmidt, were good. A
| feature of the entertainment was the
clarionet solo of Prof. Carl Thorbabn,
leader of the opera house orchestra, which
was excellent. Every person was delighted
| with it and the professor received thunders
of applause. The programme of the con-
cert is given in full here

After the concert the floor was cleared

until a late hour. All present were de
lighted with the night's entertainment
and we're convinced that the MRunerchor
people know how to manage affairs Of the
kind.
THE LIEDERERANz eocIABLE.
The LiederkraaE society gave one OF
their enjoyable concerts at their hall on
Thanksgiving eve, before very large
audience. An excellent programme had
been prepared aud all the participants
acquitted themselves with great credit.
The music, both vocal and instrumental
pleased the audience immensely, and the
few comic pieces, which were sung and
acted in costume by Messrs. Urban and
Seyfert, proved to be very plessan,

AT THE SKATING Kinks
| At the rink on West King street, the
attendance was very large on Thank sgivinp
day. In the afternoon particularly. the
place was crowded, there being hundreds
Of skaters on the floor. Master Willie
Hyde and Miss Edna McKibben, gave
exhibitions of fancy skating and were
loudly applauded. At the Mernerchol
rink there was large crowd. Before two
O'Clock in the afternoon all the skates
were taken, and many left on account oi
being unable to get skates. In the evening
both rinks were largely attended.
"UYDER THE PALMS" AT THE oPERA
HOUSE.
The beautiful cautata Under the
Palms." was admirably rendered in Fulton
opera house, Thanksgiving night, by the
choir and selected voices of the Duke
street III. Z. church.
"Under the Palms" is intended to
illustrate the jewish feast of tabernacles,
or harvest festival, and to present a view
Of the teachings of the prophet, Ezra. At
the feast of tabernacles, the people dwell
for one week in little tents or booths made
Of evergIeens, and ornamented with fruits
and flowers. The csntata represents the
return of the jews from captivity In
Babylon, during the reign of Cyrus ; the
repose of the pilgrims on their way to
jerusalem by Ahava river, where they
prayed to God for future direction for
themselves and "their little ones," and
the triumphant celebration OF the feast OF
tabernacles after their return, as described
in Nehemiah, when the people made a
vow Never again to forsake the house
Of the Lord"
