1t is unnecessary to comment upon
the playing Of the Opera House Orches-
ira, for the greatest praise would
scarcely add to its reputation as Wheel
nj ~
The singing section OF the Arlon rem
dered two selections. The first was the
Evening Star" which was we'll reh-
dered. The second chorus, in which
Mr.. Diegmilier sang the solo, was one OF
the best things of the evening. Miss
Bertha Schrader favored the audience
with two piano selections, which she
rendered in q taultleSs manner, well
meriting the liberal applause with
which they were received. MISS
Schrader is but twelve years OF age, but
she plays the instrument in a manner
that would do credit to pretentious per-
formers of more mature years, ana
gives great promise OF future attain
ments.
Mr.. Edward Yahn made his first ap-
pearance in public, singing "Fair Dave
in such a manner that ELECTED loud
applause, in response to which he sang
1.-THE Sexton" Mr.. Yahn possesses
pure rich voice that is very promising.
The baritone solo by Mr.. Frank ,Dieg-
miller was a very pleasing effort. In
response to an encore he sang pretty
ballad which was we'll received.
The programme closed with the
operetta, "Ein Lustiges Verhoer,"
comic court scene in which Mr.. Appen-
teller enacted the role OF judge
and Mr.. DlegmilIer policeman,
while two tramps were unprecedented
by Messrs. Front and Woeber.
The make-ups Of the gentlemen
were simply immense, and caught on in
great shape. The music was catchy,
and the witty sayings and clever acting
kept the audience in continual roar.
Mr.. Theodore Roller acted as director,
and the singing section rendered two
choruSes.
After the programme closed, the floor
was cleared of the chairs, and the or
chestra stationed itself on the stage,
and played the Grand March, which
opened the dance programme. Then
the latest and most popular figures were
discussed, amid much merriment, until
an early hour this morning, when the
joyous assem6lage reluctantly dispersed.
ELKs AT PARKEEsBURG.
The minstrel entertainment given by
the Elks at the Academy OF Music at
Parkersburg last night was grand
success. Every seat in the theatre had
been sold long before the evening, and
standing room was at a premium. Inc
parade of the club and visiting Elks
look the town, and elected columns OF
good -natured criticism and PERSONAL
ties. which il taken in a too literal
sense by strangers, or one unacquainted
with the boys, would have led him to
believe the club was infinitely more
wicked than the famed Tenderloin Club,
OF New York. Many of those attend
ing the performance doutless expected
TO see more than few dismal failures,
Int in this they were most agreeaoly
as the almost con-
tinuous storm of applause showed
There was talent there,
ameteur, it is true; nevertheless talent
which such men as Primrose and west
would have been proud OF possessing.
II would be difficult to discriminate
among the artists, so thoroughly ana
ably did each one perform his part.
The heaviest Of the group was Capt.
George Pillsbury, OF Marietta, VINO
mills down the scale at 900 pounds. Will
r Day, of Wheeling, who is quite a
fayorite in this city, delightfully."-
surprised the great audience, In
which were number OF musical
critics, Mr.. Day is an artist Of extraor-
binary talent. Mr.. Henry Tally, who
is well-known in Wheeling, succeeded
even better. than his most intimate &C
expected. In brief, the en-
tertainment instead Of being disap-
nointment was really an unusually ex-
cellent display Of talent throughout.
The audience was the largest known
here for years and everybody was de-
lighted. Among those present from
Wheeling were Messrs. Clark Hamilton,
Gsoree House, Harry Stallman, Robert
B. Simpson, Will II. Cassell and +. c.
Schoen.

There was quiet but pretty wedding
solemnized last evening at the home OF

which the contracting parties were MIR.

book-keepers at Block Bros. Tobacco

First ward, and who has acquired con-
