MARTINS FERRY,

feature, oot on the programme, was th
e refreshments of ice cream, etc, served
the ladies OF the W. F. NJ. Society, whic
netted them handsome sum for thei
e good cause. Last night was the crownip
e evening OF the course The programm
: was full and entertaining one, and a
felt themselves richly paid The Anthem
and Qusrtette we're exceedingly fine. Tn
piano solo "Blumenlied,' by Mrs. Wm
Wood we'll deserved the hearty applause
E also the very difficult, and yet mBgnifcen
piano solo, Primo Beleiio," by Mis-
Lille Tannebill was most suberb, ant
eyinced the fact that our own home talen
was second to none. This production wa
roundly applauded.
The puett, Far Away" sung by Mrs
Mccain and her sister, Mrs. Price wa
very beautiful indeed, and was heartil
received and appreciated.
The solo, The Storm and the Rescue
by Mr.. W. H. Hobbs, the very efficien
leader of to church choir, was rendered
in his own attractive manner.
The bass solos were elegant and highly
appreciated.
We need scarcely mention the very fine
solo 30 finely rendered by Miss Flo VII
liams Her singing is always attractive
and always meets with an encore. This
lady may well be classed with Miss Jeape
Wallace and other professionals. This
autumn school hos developed the fact that
Martins Ferry is blessed with musical
talent rarely found in single community.

Keeler, Of Bellsire, was masterful pro.
duction, which delighted as well as edited

about three hundred birds. IL was indeed
