MUSIC AND DRAMA.
BENEFIT CONCERT.

The concert given last evening at the
Gospel Mission for the benefit of the musical
fund proved grand success in every way.
An audience filling the large hall was held
to the very last number on the programme.
The orchestra rendered several fine selec-
tions and received repeated encores. Miss
Evangeline Pearson as reader was very
happy in her selections, "The New Church
Organist," and medly arranged by herself
took the house by storm, and she was re-
peatedly recalled. At the close of the
second selection she was presented with an
elegant bouquet by her appreciative friends.
The trombone solo by Mr.. F. o. Welcome
received merited encore. Miss Nettie
Morrison sang in fine voice and was recalled
several times, in response to the hearty en-
cores she received. Mr.. Frank Perkins gave
MS concert solo in very artistic manner,
and the violin solo by Mr.. Eugene Lesser
was highly appreciated by the audience. Mr..
Lew Smith proved himself a great favorite
with the audience and was Obliged to
respond to several encores. The club swing
ing by Mr. R. N. York proved vary attrac-
tive part of the programme, and was very
greatly enjoyed by the spectators. Mr. Pear
son thanked the audience for their appre.
citation of his efforts. and trusted that dur
ing the coming year the Gospel Mission may
by able TO have still better music than ever
before.
PIRATES OF PENZANCE.
The "Pirates Of Penzance" will probably
receive representation in this city by the
amateurs May 9th and 2Sth that has never
been equalled by any musical organization.
The scenery, that has been prepared for the
occasion, will be very artistic, especially the
moonlight scene in the second act Princi-
pals and chorus have labored faithfully, and
the rehearsals have been frequent and well
attended. The orchestra Is putting in good
work. The stage manager, Mr.. Montgomery,
is just the right man in the right place. The
sale OF seats will begin at the box office, at
$50 O'Clock, Saturday.
PORTLAND THEATRE,
several weeks ago the PRESS stated that
the management of Portland theatre-Mr
Chas. ii. Newell-would not renew his lease
the coming fall unless changes were 49,
by which the capacity of tie house conld he
enlarged and the entrances and eTi Huiu De
proved. This statement was priyataIv
denied. 1t now appears that Mr.. NewalEg
will close his management June list after
service. What will be done with the theatre
is not announced; whether it will be leased
to other parties or closed,
