During the lntermlSsion IN the afternoon and
evening the famous child cornetist, Jessie
Thompson, rendered several pleasing selections
on the grandest of instruments, and the voci Ter
GUS applause with which her efforts were greeted
on each occasion, attests the favorable impress
sion she made. She is but six years old, is
pretty hiss Jessie, but her tone and
Of years study cannot acquire on the cornet.
She is OF Texas, too. Her mother, pleasant
lady, who accompanies her. tells how she
CHANGED to learn this instrument, SO strange to
the taste Of wee girl. At home they have
many instruments, but Little Jessie would toy
with the cornet, notwithstanding frequent in
siructions to desist. One day she was shown
the lingering OF Home, Sweet Home, and in a
week she had mastered it. Now she is o clever
sight reader OF difficult compositions.
The Elgin band numbers were as usual very
pleasing yesterday. Those of the concerted
music which received the most Eociferous en-
cores were the overture L'Italiana d'Algeria BY
Rossini; Mayerbeer's Schiller March. the grand
selection from DoniEetti's AdeIin, Anber's
Bronze Horse overture, the fantastic negro
dance, the selections from Uhrich's Flora Mac
Donald, the Tannhauser overture, and the de-
scriphye Summer Day in Norway BY willmers.
The last number on the afternoon programme
was loudly cheered. 1t was theme with varia-
lions for different instruments which brought
out the properties of each instrument and the
qualities of the performers. and to say that the
band acquitted itself with distinction does not
express the situation. A loud cry for more
went up from the immense audience, end Con-
duetor Hecker, with his usual agseeability,
complied.
The trombone solo by Mr.. Stress was accom-
plished with that gentlemsn's usual excellezce.
He has thorough command of his instrument
and the rendition of Down in the Cellar, - as
an encore, q composition requiring supple lip
as wei as sympathetic tone, showed that Mr..
Stress has mastered the trombone, and that
that instrument must be classed among the
melody pieces.
The horn quartelte by Messrs. Muller, Riley,
Carroll and Giskie was put on in fine shape
The selection rendered, concert piece BY Null
Ter, was suitable for the occasion, and the mu-
ness.
The. clarinet sextet, the Quails. by Messrs.
Stengler, Dennsteadt, Iroli, Werner, Bosque
and schafer, caught the audience. Professor
aeeker has bank OF some sixteen clarinets,
and the performers in this piece were among the
