cessfully. The instrumental pieces were
we'll rendered and marked Improvement
was noticed in soma of the performers. The
trio by three little misses, Katie Cameron,
Lavinia Carroll and Maggie Jepson, was
extremely creditable to such young per-
formers. Among the vocalists may be par
ticularly mentioned Misses Rose Tucker,
Sadie GnDdling, Susie Reister and Katie
Hallisy, whose musical voices gave evidence
of careful culture. The vocal duet BY Misses
