The reception given by TIE Ladies China
club was the most notable event of the
past week, and the exhibition was q credit
to the taste, talent and energies of the
members, an artistic display hat
would a proven meritorious in
any art centre, and a distinctively
woman's enterprise, which commends itself
to public favor under the most promising
auspices. The short time the reception
was held, together with the inclement
weather, deferred many from visiting the
display, which is their loss.
The c%otillion party on this occasion was
not so numerously attended as previous
hops have been, but an air of thorough en-
ioyment prevailed, and after lunch was
served dancing was resumed, and with re
luctant footsteps the participants at a late
hour dispersed.
The Knutsford was the chosen place of
meeting for the New Englanders to cele-
brate Forefathers' day, and a royalty good
time was had in speech-making, feasting
and social converse. Mrs. DR.. Utter re-
cited charmingly a poem of her own upon
the subject.
The Unitarian Sunday school children
deserve unstinted praise for their gracious
charity and generous offerings contributed
to the Orphans home. The ladies in
charge Of the entertainment who planned
the pleasant exercises for them conceived
a most admirable precedent for time to
come in showing them that it is more
blessed to give b receive.
The Orphans home was the scene of the
most joyous gathering yet chronicled. The
happiness of the children and the pleasure
of their benefactors was immeasureably
great. No stone was left unturned to make
it the most memorable occasion in each
child's life present. The noble women
who lent willing hands to this labor of
love cannot be too highly praised.

If "Fatinitza'' had been adversely criti-
cised on previous performances, certainly
it redeemed itself last night in the presence
Of a large and fashionable audience. The
rendition was smooth and the principals
were all in good voice, the costuming was
as elegant as ever seen. and our amateurs
donned their attire with royal grace. Miss

contralto voice impressed her hearers with
It's superiority. Goddard was at his best,
and his sonorous tones were well suited to
his Russian colonelcy. Mrs. SIlva's win
some presence and her sweet information
captivated all. The handsome Mr.. Pyper.
not only sang in an inimitably sweet voice
with much magnetism, but his stage pres
ence was the admiration of the audience.
Our Spencer is beyond comparison and
his diversified talents are always aDpre-
ciated by a partial public, for ne is an uni
yersal favorite.
OF the young ladies who constituted the
harem, Miss Title Phillips bore away the
honors. She has a most pathetic and silvery
voice, and her beautiful face was an add
tional charm.
The music was good, and all together a
most delightful performance was given.
