tune; Miss Clayton sustained the
alto admirably,bu the whole lacked
that shading and finish which it has
so often received at professionally
hands in Salt Lake
The orchestra gave a selection
from II Trovatore, which was we'll
rendered in all parts except when
the anvil was introduced; that IN
strument was entirely too loud.
Professor Beezley conJucted thu
whole, and as usual did the lions
share Of the work in arranging, re-
hearsing, selecting and dong the
thousand other things necessary on
such an occasion; to him therefore
belongs the lions share of whatever
praise is due the entire performance.
1t was unfortunate for Miss Oieen
that the benefit could not have &C.
CURED at time when there was
less depression in amusement cir g.
cles; ordinarily, the remembrance
OF what she has done for the public
since she commenced singing
few seasons ago, would have called
forth an audience large enough to
ill the Theatre twice over; but in
times like these that are now upon
US, the public is apt to put its
pocket before all other considera
lions, and to defer other claims till
the good time coming. Something,
however, was realized from the en-
tertainment for the benefciare,
though not what had been hoped by
the proj ectors; it Is som athing too,
We have no doubt, Miss Oxen will
feel, to have been rendered such a
testimonial by body like the Tab.
ernacle choir, and the whole-souled
manner with which they took hold
OF the suggestion, can not but be
gratifying to Miss Olsen's feelings.
Miss Olsen, we have the authority
in stating, will not leave home to
pursue her studies.
MR.. GEBHARD FOUND.
There We many persons who
were inclined to discrediU The
HERALD's account of the presence
Of Mr.. freddie Gebhard upon our
streets at the time Of the L ly's vi it,
and the correspondents of several
dramatic papers, notably that o& The
Times, characterized the assertion
as an invention. To these Thomases
we recommend q perusal of the Alta
California Of June %, wherein our
prediction that Mr.. G.. would not
rest undisturbsd under his incog
among the San FIancIsco critics is
literally carried out; the reporter of
that paper bestows five sensational
columns upon "Frsddie Found
the Famous Dude Discovered In the
Lang try Car, In Luxurious Seclu .
slon-Masquerading Under AS
sumed Names, etc. etc. etc. )" then
follows description Of the Lily's
other worshiper, Oerlichs the
cattle king, and the introduction OF
Mr.. Geohar6 about to En as Mr..
Davis, the same alias under which
he masqueraded here, the rs.en-
counter with a man wh) had
groomed Mr., Gebhard's own horses,
and the CONSERVATION of the party
when this gent OF the stable
sang out, "Why, hello Mr.. Geb
hard, I didn't know you were on'
here;" the reporters subsequent
prying about the Lily's car, and his
deserving the famous character pop
ping bottle of champagne at the
lady's table, and finally of an inter
view with the English maid, whit
reluctantly, but definitely gave TIT
whole thing away. This was on thu
day that Langtry concluded her en-
gagement in San Francisco, ant
next morning, says the Alta, Mr.
Gebhard and the actress departed
together to do the Yosemite.
