pearance.
The programme as arranged proved
very entertaining, and the various Sc
lections were heartily enjoyed.
Prof. Wilde and Mr.. Edwin Clarke
furnished the instrumental part OF the
programme, which included several
beautiful selections. Prof. Wilde was
heard to excellent advantage on the
mammoth pipe organ, which did splen-
did work under his skillful manipula-

selections on both piano and organ were
of high order. Mr.. Clarke was heard
in both violin and cornet solos, on either
OF which instruments he is an adept.
The selections given last evening were
much appreciated and several encores
demanded.
Among the vocal selections that OF
Mrs. Clapp's Heaven Hath Shed a
Tear, was perhaps the most enjoyed,
while the ballad she gave as an en-
core was very pretty.
Miss Elizabeth Janet was heard for
the first time in a concert in this city
and was given hearty welcome. Her
mezzo-eoprano voice was heard to ex-
cellent advantage in Gounod's To
Spring, which she rendered very feel
ingly.
Professor Taylor and Professor Kyle
sang duet from Martha, and were both
heard in solos, the former giving The
Worker by Gounod and the latter a Sc
lection from Hayden's Creation. Both
were received very warmly.
MISS janet; mrs. 1c6n1dlf, VII. Glepp.

perfect success, and those engaged in it
are to be congratulated. qiifGa
