ALBA HAYWOOD.

The Court House Park was thronged
Saturday afternoon TO enjoy few Sc
lections given by the Alba Haywood
Company band. Merchants left their
stores IN charge of clerks and stood
bareheaded under the trees, even the
entire HERALD force deserted its post to
listen to the sweet music. If full adj
mission could have been collected from
all listeners The company would have
reaped rich reward. But Lancaster
ians are evidently saving their money
for the county fair next week, and the
troupe had only two-thirds house in
the evening.
The performance did not receive
hearty approval, while the quality was
excellent-far above the ayerage--it
lacked in variety and entertaining
properties. Alba Haywood is a good
impersonator. Let him show his varied
powers in one scene. and it would have
been pleasing, but 10 spread it over the
whole evening by sandwiiehing instru-
mental music between each character
becomes wearisome. The violin solo Of
Annie Miller was superb showing
mastering and finish Of execution rarely
seen out Of large orchestras; while the
piecalo and flute solos of Clint Haywood
were also excellent; and the orchestra
aud band the finest heard here for
long time, yet Lancaster audiences are
not of character to absorb unlimited
Instrumental music. They want little
singing, some dancing, dash of acting,
and tinge of humor over all to COM
prise an evenings entertainment.
