THESE ARE moonlight nights accord |
ing to the altman and if one could see

TIE ENTERTAINMENT given at the

Mrs. Dryfoos, the talented reader, as
sisted by a corps of local musicians,
was one of the best things of the kind
that Salt Lake has enjoyed in long
time. Mrs. Dryfoos is not only good
reader, but is a beautiful woman and
dresses like a queen. Her first selec-
ton vas "Ostler Joe," the spicy poem
that gave Mrs. James Brown Potter her
first lift in the world of notoriety. This,
like nearly every other selection, was
widely applauded and encored. The
piano work of Messrs. Krouse and Nc.
Intyre, the cornet solo by Mr.. Aldous
and Miss Hawiey's songs added much
Ca the entertainment, by giving it a
Tariety of the best music. The audience
was : large one, considering the char
arter of the performance, and had peo-
Die realized that such a treat was
offered, it would doubtless have been |
anger still.
