A Good Entertainment.

The musical and dramatic enter
tainment given by The pupils Of st.
Mary s. Hall last night, was oae Of the
best amateur entertainments ever Civ
en- in our city. The program was
well cast and admirably executed.
The Ave Maria" was sweetly sang
by the young ladies, many of whom
have fine voices. Welcome to the
Little Ones" from Bohemian Girl,
was executed ny thirty little girls
dressed in white with pink and blue
trimmings and carrying pink or blue
flags bearing the word welcome The
violin cithern solo, by Miss G. Gessner
is especially worthy of mention, the
young lady performing on this instru-
ment with ease and grace, and show.
ing decided musical ability. "The
Crown of Virtue" an operetta won
the admiration of all. Miss X. Glynn
as "The Countess Miss A. Walton
as Catherine Durandv and Miss
B. Clark and Miss Mamie Jacob
son, sang very sweetly their diff
ferent roles. "The Singing Lesson, /"
farce. brought forth laughter from
the most staid. Miss K. Glynn as
the Professor could not be eclipsed.
and the pun on amima was decidedly
funny when the servant answering to
the name Annie May, would not de-
sist in the idea she was called. Mas
ter Harry Curran is especially worthy
of mention as good actor and singer
for a little boy. The calistbenics
were beautifully executed by num-
ber of young ladies in costume who
showed thorough training, which re-
hectes with credit, as does the whole
program, on the sisters in charge of
the school. The program closed with
'Mrs, ButtermiIk's trip to Manro, /" in
which Miss Clark showed some good
acting ability. Space forbids US to
mention all, but just here let us re-
mark that perhaps the sweetest thing
Of the evening was song I'm writ
