NINE. sELIKA,s CONCERT.
The Creole Son gstress Proves a Draw.
ing Card.


The theater was crowded in every part
last night chiefly by colored people TO listen
to Nine Selika, the creole prima donna,
and her company. The programme
began with a piano solo by Prof
A. o. Carter, followed by bari
tone solo. If thou couldst know" sung
with excellent effect by Mr. S. w. Williams,
the Hawaiian vocalist.
Nine. Selika sang Nerdfs musical gem,
"Ah farse lui' and evoked storm Of
applause. to which she responded with the
we'll known ballad, Flower of the Alps y
The audience was ighly entertained with
a select reading by Halle q. Brown. who
is an accomplished elocutionist and reader.
The baritone solo "NOn-e-ver," by Matte
sung by Mr. Williams, was one of the best
rendered and most acceptable vocal efforts
of the evening.
Mime. Selika showed TO best advantage in
the "Echo Song by Eckhart. Her voice
is a soprano of good timbre and extensive
range, and if tho singer We're a white per-
son her singing could not fail to create a
fltrOre in any circle. Her voice las cen
thoroughly cultivated under some of the
best teachers in Europe and America In
response TO an encore she gave the Cuckoo
Song" in good style.
The duet from IpTrOvatore was rer-
dered by Nine. Selika and Mr. Williams, as
only finished singers can render it. The
applause that followed was loud, and bois-
ferrous even, and repetition was called for
by the audience. Prof. Carter was the
arcompan yist, and consideri & that he and
the singers are new t. each other, he &C
quilted himself capitally.
This entertainment was brought TO a
close by a selected reading by Miss
Brown, which she gave with considera-
bic dramatic force and fervor.
BY special request tho concert will be re-
peated on Wednesday nigat under the
theater Management. The sale Of reserved
seats will begin this morning at Davis Bros. >
