THE concert by the Glee and Mandolin
Clubs of the Western University, at Dill
worth Hall, Pennsylvania College for
Women, last evening, was as pleasant an
affair Of its kind as has ever been given in
Pittsburg. College songs, when rendered by
college students, are always enjoyable, and
those rendered last night were no exception
to the rule. Then the Mandolin Club of the
Western University is made up of really
clever performers on that tuneful instru-
ment, which, with background Of guitars,
gives splendid effect. The Glee Club is
made up of the following gentlemen: First
tenors-Willis Brown, j. II. Evans, ID. G..
Parkinson. Second tenors-C. II. Edwards,
A. B. McGrew, G. III. Calvert. First bass
W. Med. Dorrington, Walker Riddle, III. 5.
Calvert. Second bass-A. L. Hoerr, Nj. G.
Cunningham, c. n. Reidinger. The Mandolin
Club is as follows: Mandolins. J. P. Murray,
j. E. McClurg, 4. c. Brown, G. =. Weyman;
guitars, f. B. Smith, j. A. Hartrick, Ii. L.
Dubarry. The programme opened with the
chorus Praise to Old Uni" and was fol-
lowed by Spanish gallopade Other nota-
BILE numbers were 1.-THE Black Brigade"
'1nvincible Guards March," "Patrol
ConliQue," .Slumber Song" etc. The music,
DOtn instrumental ana vocal, was excel
lently rendered. showing that it had been
carefully rehearsed, and that the natural
talents of the performers had been brought
out under skillful instruction. Many OF the
numbers were encored, and the programme
was consequently very long one. The en-
tertainment was so good, however, that the
large anL fashionable audience did not be-
tray any weariness. In fact, there was
general feeling of regret when the last
selection had been given and the young
men made their final bow. The audience
comprised the elite of the city. and it is
doubtful whether a more representative
gathering of the society people of PittsburS
has been seen at an entertainment this
winter.
A DELIGHTFUL concert was given last
evening in Carnegie Music Hall, under the
auspices of the Allegheny Musical Associa-
ton. Miss Eugenia II. Baldwin, of Chicago,
who is the possesssor of a sweet soprano,
sang Delibes' "Muid of Cadiz," and an air
and variations by Prock. Madame Kate
Ockelsten-Lippa rendered several piano
solos IN mastery style. among them being
st. Saens'K 'Kermesse and Faustwaltz, and Cho-
pins "Noctnrne" % t op "a No. 2 and hroegeTs
tette gave 1.-THE Spring is Come, Huzza,"
and other pieces in the splendid way in
which they do everything Miss Ida NJ;
she showed it by her pleasing manner OF
giving several selections last night.
