many people were wondering why in the mis-
chief Burdett at that late hour had been called
on at all. He felt like certain straggler who,
while "skedaddling from the battle OF Gettys-

General Slocum: ''You great stand mp. What
are you running away for, and believing like a

The G. A. r. in all the States would give
toward the proposed soldiers monument not
only its good wishes, but. if necessary, its hard
earned pennies. The order might be useful
again in this country. Recently there had come
among Americans men preaching that an
archy liberty and tina. riot was law.
They bore a flag as their emblem
that WAS a stranger in this land. It
was the color of the fame below There was no
room in this country for this rag of disorder
Applause The flag of glory filled all it's face
The G. A. r. would serve it's country anew by
seeing to it that in all honorable ways the red
flag should never be carried here again. Good
bye and God bless you," said the General in clos
ing.
The nights festivities concluded with the sing
ing of HAL Columbia" by Miss A. w. Baggs
and the chorus, with considerable spirit, and the
great camp fire which has been anticipated with
so much interest at twenty minutes past IL
o'clock ended with everybody present feeling
that the occasion had been one of the pleasantest
and most memorable in the history Of the city.

excellent one for the exhibition of fine instru-
mentation. The thoroughly artistic manner in
when 1t was handled was recognized and appre-
| clated by the audience which listened
with absorbed attention until the last strains
OF the uocturne and the wedding march had
died away. The polonaise from ''Mgnon' and
the grand waltz by Strakosch both of which
were rendered by Miss Lehman, were admir-
aoly adapted to show her method of vocaliza-
ton aud her reliability in the Interpretation of
varied scores. Those of the audience who had
nao the pleasure of hearing her on the previous
evening marveled at this further exhibition of
the ease with which this artist meets the sever
est demands. After both renditions she re-
ceived enthusiastic encore. but iE each re-
sponded only with gracious smiles and bows.
Fror. Schonackcrs piano solo, The Battle
Cry OF Freedom" was brilliantly exc
cuted. The thought probably occurred
to many listeners during the performance that
1t would have been well to place this number
upon the bill for the evenings entertainment.
The singing OF Thou Lovely STAR by the SEMI
chorus of ladies. was a pleasing exhibition of
the proficiency attained by this portion of the
chorus, and their accuracy and confidence a
tribute to their instructors methods. Miss Lulu
Burts aria from 'Fidelior was charmingly rem
dered. Miss Burts voice is light, sweet so
prano, resembling Emma Abbotts in quality.
She sings with much expression and has pleas
ing manner upon the stage. She made favor
able impression upon the audience and has
reason to be gratfied by the reception accorded
her.
Notwithstanding the fact that the absence of
many male singers essened the strength of the
chorus somewhat, the rendition of Righinis
THE Lord is Great" was even more effective
than on Tuesday evening. The powers of the
chorus are fully demonstrated in this work, and
ne certainty and unity with which it meets the
demands upon it is still matter of surprise to
those who consider the brief time allowed for
practice. The chorus is Of which the city
and conductor may well be proud. The overture
from Zuppe's Poet and Peasant" closed the
afternoons performance. and rounded out the
second entertainment of the festival that was
satisfactory In every respect

EUROPE has the colonizing craze on

EUROPE has the colonizing craze on
the brain just now. Bismarck is search
ing the world over for favorable spots
wherein to establish German colonies. He
does not favor the emigration tide from
the Fatherland that yearly comes to swell
the population of this country. He does
not wish German emigrants to be denat-
uralized and enter the ranks of repub-
licanism. as they necessarily do when
they touch this soil To make room for
his own people he is resolved in clearing
out the barsssed Poles. England too Is
sitting on an anxious seat, though one
would imagine she has colonies enough
She also is averse to the tide flowing
hitherward. The London Times ad-
vises the government to persuade
emigrating families to choose English
colonies in preference to the United
States IF We are to send out emigrants, y
it says people are beginning to ask why
should it not rather be to our own colo>
MES than To the United States. Settled
among subjects of the Queen they will
become, if they prosper, as we hope, a
strength to the Empire. Settled else
where they will only increase the strength
of these who fight our friends, and are
not one nation with ourselves" The
Times is right doubtless from its point of
view, but somehow or another English
emigrants largely prefer the United States
to any of the mother colonies. Such is
their choice and they do not often repent
it.
