The Reading Room EntertAlnment.
A very large audience complimented
the endeavors of Mrs. Grinfith to bene.
fit the Free Reading Room, by at
tending at the Rink last evening. The
programme was preceded by o few re-
marks from Rev. T. c. Armstrong
thanking those present for their liberal
patronage, and promising them an en-.
tertaiument well worthy OF their
money and time-and the reverend
gentleman did not ovestate the facts,
for the whole programme from lie
opening to Its closing number was one
of unusual excellence for amateurr.
The opening chorus by fourteen young
ladies and gentlemen in sailor costume
was tunefully and gracefully rendered
and earned recall. This was follow.
ed by q soprano solo by Mrs. Griffith,
artistically sung and giving evidence
of skill aud cultivation rarely found on
the amateur stage. Next. Captain
Jinks, by Master Evans ConnR and
Mistress Jinks by Gertie 0lner
entertained and amused the
audience. Each Of the performer
were about ss small as they could
be, and being in costume, their sing
ing and acting was particularly laugh
able. The cantata of "An hour In
Fairy Land" followed and occupied
about three quarters Of an hour in II,
production. The children entered
fully into the spirit of the piece and nc
prompting or assistance was required
each of the little performers being
ready at the proper time, consequently
everything moved Off smoothly.

larize, but special mention is due
Eddie Holt and Daisy Gibbs for the

they comported themselves a. King

the excellent singing they did. The
other soloists were Gertie Miner,
Minnie Judkins. Aggie House and
Marion Gordon, who each and all did
splendidly for such youngsters. With
the ice now broken by . first public
appearance, Mrs. Griffith can now
essay something more pretentioua
with her troupe. with every chance
for success.
