men who viii interest the natives with al

ture in our midst The programme was
opened with the anthem, III Ye Love Me-"
This is q sacred selection and Of very
high order. The rendition would have re-
hected credit on many older and more
thoroughly organized choir.
The duet Il arb2ard Watch" by Messrs.
VIM. Mann and Thomas Lloyd, was one Of
the mest highly appreciated treats OF the
evening. These gentlemen have very fine,
sweet tenor voices, and, as has been the
case on many previous occasions, they rem.
dered their selection in q manner, refhgent
with harmony and and sweetness.

Mr. VIM. Mann pleased the audience very
much with his rendition OF THE Bloom Is
on the Rye" The selection is peculiarly
adapted to Mr.. Mann's sweet tenor voice,
and his conception and performance were
simply exquisite.
Misses Flo Williams and May McKinn
are too we'll known hereabouts to need any
introduction. Their ability is Acknowledged
on all oides, and their rendition of the duet
Holy Mother Guide His Footsteps tended
to exalt the previously high estimation Of
the audience.
Miss Williams also sang q song entitled
Cherry Ripe" in very pleasing manner
She was called back and sang Three Old
Maids as an encore. On the whole the
programme was very good and the audience
