of Prof Logan with Supt. Odell an

waiting for the tardy ones the ineom-
parable Great Western band played
several selections ut the depot fully
establishing the great reputation that

made them celebrated at home for the

The Kellogg

Concert at the Opera House We'd
nesday evening was very largely at
tended as we had Anticipated IL would
be. The programme was an excellent
one and the rendition OF il was most
satisfactorily given, II the applause
accorded IL is TO be taken as evidence
Of the fact. Twelve of the thirteen
numbers upon the program ne were
solos with piano accompaniment, n
test which none but first class artists
could withstand successfully. They
all did this with such eclat, each
member being heartily encored, u
compliment to which they pleasantly
responded in a manner that brought
forth still warmer applause. Miss
Kellogg's voice has Lost none Of its
youthful freshness, and she still pos
sesses all the art, technique, and
power OF expression that have given
her the exalted position she has so
long occupied as Queen Of the concert
stage. Miss Laura S. Groves, con-
tralto, and Mr.. Morlwski, basso, were
received with great favor by the audi
ence, AMI worthily so. Miss Ollie
Torbett, n young lady Of IL, took the
house by storm by the ease and grace

Dorc and About.

A Paris letter-writer says: My 5rst
meeting with the late NJ. About was in
a waysidc inn near st. Nicolas. Va
raugeyille. 1t was in the hop season,
and the isop-pickers had crowded into
the general room when their day work
was over They were generally Vosges
mountainccrs who had descended to the
valleys of Lorraine as Londoncrs 90 to
the rural parts Of Kent in September.
But there the resemblance ended, as the
manners of the former were rustic, the
bloom of health was in their cheeks, the
women and girls were neatly dressed IN
provincial costumes, had not blear eyes,
did not smell of gin, and the younger
ones were bright with animal spirits.
was with u few tourists from Paris.
A couple of other travellers descended
from farmers wagon which had given
them lift along the road. They ask
ed for dinner and sleeping acc0mmo.
dation. One was boyish- looking admit
with long hair and "billycock" hat, the
worse for the wear. He carried on his
back a sachel and a painters box, and
held yiolin-casc under his arm. The
second tourist had in ono hand a little
portmanteau and in the other Il folding
easel. He was dressed in blue linen
overall suit, was neat about the shoes
and collar, and wore brown straw
hat. The landlady having more lodg-
erS than she could well attend to, was
inclined to turn them away. But they
said they would not only pay her, but If
she cleared space in a barn would
provide music gratis, and if there were
pretty girls in the house do their like
ncsses for whatever they might choose
to offer. In moment the hop-pickers
clamored for hospitality to be shown to
the newcomers, and a youth proposed
to 90 round the village to inquire if
there were any beds in a private house
which could be obtained for them for
the night. Gustave Dore was the bear
cr of the violin, and Edmond About
carried the folding easel.
After dinner GuStaye Dore took his
fiddle out of the case and went to
barn. All the guests followed and viii
lage folks came in to join them. Old
and young danced. About was still
bachelor Although he had neglected
at school the cult of Terpsichore, he
was indcfatigable in kicking up his heels
anu NIlShluS IOuuu tut cOuuI1J Sillo.
The improvised ball ended with a sup
per, which had for its principal dish
soupe aur chou1. The cabbage was
we'll garnished with smoked sausages.
About was an active trenchman. He
laughed and talked while he ate, crack
ed jokes with the other guests who were
invited to share the meal, and enjoyed
the rough homeliness of the hostelry and
its inmates. He then had thick head
of light brown hair, and brownish
beard which in certain lights was fair.
The complexion was pasty. All the
gold that should have been in the hair
had, one might have supposed, descend
ed to his face, and in falling got dull.
But the irrepressible animal spirits, the
square, massive head, the broad shoul-
ders, deep chest, and general lines of
the frame corrected the impression of
unhealthiness which was given by the
pastiness of the face.
