The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1891-09-20

While still holding the original plot and |
many of the clever lines, Evans & Hoey |
have added much that is new and inter
esting.
Their puns and jokes are new and orig
inal. The music is bright and catchy and |
with the new business and new individual |
specialties which have been added, goes |
to make up one of the brightest and neatest |
entertainments il farce comedy ever given |
here
The company which will be seen in this |
city, was selected from the cream of the |
farce comedy ranks, ann many new faces |
will appear. Prominent among them are
the three English sisters Levey, whose ap-
pearance with this company in New York
city created such sensation last winter.
They are tall, graceful women who will be
seen in pleasing specialties of high order.
The "Parlor Match quartette, said to
comprise four of the finest singers ever
heard in farce comedy, are an additional
attraction. Miss Lillian Markham and Miss
Ada Jewell will be heard in several solos.
That petite little soubrette, Minnie French,
will play her original role of innocent
KIDD
OF Evans and Hosy little special men
ton is needed. They are too well known
here to require any extended notice, other
than that Evans is as full of ''reparteen as
ever and that 'Old Hoss'' Hoay will sing
his latest success "a Job Lot"

The Choral society has every reason to
felicitate itself upon the recent concert,
and its success should serve as the best
possible incentive to bring out the mem bers
at the regular meeting tomorrow night.
Speaking of the concert THE HERALD has
obtained expressions from some OF the
most distinguished of the irrigation visit
ors, which will be specially interesting to
| those who take pride in Salt Lakes must
cal reputation.
Thomas M. Tongue, representative of
the British press, said: The concert at the
tabernacle on Wednesday evening was
alone worth the journey from Denver. L
do not know MIR. Evan Stephens personally
but he is credit to the musical genius of
tie Welsh people. We have not got such q
Choral society in Denver or such concert
hall. The Young Ladies' Mandolin club
was simply excellent and the ballads rem
dered by Mr.. Easton were such musical
treat as have not before enjoyed during
my eight years residence in America.
Hon. John p. Irish, of San Francisco,
said: II was much pleased with the city
and more pleased with the signs l see of
the decline of asperities and the return of
humane feelings and good fellowship be-
tween all citizens. The concert excelled
anything that San Francisco can produce.
The perfect accord of the chorus singing
were touchiG G aud impressive. The instru-
mentation was beyond all praise. The
performers gave to their guests an enter
tainnent that will long be sweetly har-
monious melody. My wife is musician
and will bring her with me to the next
May festival"
Hon. Henry Blackburn, state senator
from Heppner. Oregon: 81 never saw a
chorus of its size handled SO well by its
director"
w. H. Mills, editor of the Sacramento
Union and musical critique and connois-
seur: "That was magnificent concert,
and 1 can say unhesitatingly that San
Francisco could not give anything equal to
it, l regarl Miss Lincoln az an exceed
ingly fine soloist. She IS equal to any am
ateur that 1 have recently heard, and there
is no amateur on the stage who gives
greater promise than she. The best mum ber
and that which illustrated the fine work OF
the chorus was the third number where i,
, sang without accompaniment. The prof

to New York, Chicago or any other large
city, and the musical atmosphere of your

tabernacle whose splendid acoustics is al
