The concert Of vocal and instrumental
music in the Baptist church on Tuesday eve
ming last was one of the most enjoyable to
which our citizens have listened for a long
time. This is the first of series of four en-
tertainments to be given on alternate weeks
under the auspices Of the ladies of the Bap-
tist society. The singing was by Shaw's
vnarteette. assisted by Miss Minnie A.
Noyes, reader; Miss Annie Greeley, soprano,
ana Charles L. True, pianist, all of Portland.
ane selections were all of high order,
Caste and eleyatlng, ana all the more appre-
clated on that account. BY the way, In this
connection, it may be of interest to our read
ers TO know that Mr.. John l.. Shaw has now
Deen engaged in singing for ~ years, begin
nlng as boy alto in church choir. Forty.
tnree years ago he met Mr.. Thurston, and
together they have been singing ever since,
and. as the latter frequently remarks, shave
never had quarrel yet" Evidently they
have lost neither power nor expression, as
was abundantly demonstrated In their sing
ing on Tuesday evening last.
