by the Unitarian ladies at the Parker
Christensen hall last evening
Seventeen little(?) lads and lassies
| formed a, kindergarten with Miss Lewis
and Miss Thompson in charge. The
circle of tiny chairs was suggestive
lof the bona fide kindergarten, and the
costumes of the pupils also carried
out the idea. There were white aprons
and school frocks galore and the sight
of Nat Brigham in juvenile corduroyS
and 8 broad collar, and Walter Amy
in the costume of a, society young man
of six years of age was one long to be
remembered. The games and songs
were nicely given and some of the jul
Venile acting was very good.
Mrs. Silva was bewitching as Sylvia.
Mrs. Sykes and Miss Mccormick were
such successes as naughty little girls
that it was suggested that they drew
on their recollections of school days
for the role.
Mrs. Green was a success as a bashful
little girl
Mrs. Silva's song MY Doll" was
sweetiy rendered, and it was a pleas
ure to a Salt Lake audience to again
hear Mr.. Brigham'S tenor. lie sang
There, Little Girl, Don't Cry" and
for an encore a familiar ballad.
The pupils were Mrs. Green, Mrs.
Silva, Mrs. Schew. Mrs. Sykes, Mrs.
Bradley, Mrs. Terhune, Miss McCor-
nick, Miss Harrison, Miss Madison,
Miss Jeanette Smith, Miss Ida Pratt,
Miss Scott, Messrs. Eugene Lewis,
Walter Amy, Leon and Professor
Whiting.

had closed an hour was spent in dane

One of the most entertaining pro-
grammes of the season was given by
the members of the Irish American
society to their friends and associates
at the Grand Army hall on last Tues
dav evening. The hall was filled with
a large and appreciative audience,
each number of the programme being
exceedingly well rendered. The enter
tainment opened with some pertinent
remarks by President J. H. Murphy,
who explained the objects and aims of
the society Mr.. Murphy was followed
by Miss Annie Sullivan who rendered a
beautiful solo, Miss Sullivan has made
great strides in vocaIism and her
friends predict a bright future for her
should she apply herself as diligently
in the future as she has in the past to
the cultivation of her voice Mr.
Thomas Carroll. the well known cornet
Isoloist. succeeded Miss Sullivon. His
rendition of theme with variations"
could hardly be excelled. AS an encore
he gave the Last Rose of Summer
Prof. John c. Meakin in his own
felicitous manner rendered the ballad
Morning on the Irish Coast" and as
an encore gave a Dutch defamation
which caused the audience to break
forth in long and continuous applause.
The professor was succeeded by
Messrs. Frank Harvey, L. Petit
and w. NJ. Beynon. who de-
livered some beautiful selections on
guitars and mandolins. The guest
of the evening, Hon. Laurence P.
Bowie of Chicago, entertained the
company over an hour and a half. his
subject being the duties of Irish-Amer-
leans to their adopted country He
proved by statistics that no people
have shown such anxiety for the adj
vancement of their adopted country
as have the Irish. He paid his respects
en- PEASANT to the A. p. A. society and
predicted that should war break out in
this country tomorrow, every mothers
son of them would make quick tracks
for Canada. The speech as whole
was mastery one and were it not
that the judge was suffering from an
affection of the throat it could not
be surpassed.
Mr.. e. ]. Robinson, a new arrival
from Queenstown, county Cork, Ire
land, followed with baritone solo en-
1n1 No. 49,
core Riley and l." Mr. Robinson
should be heard to be appreciated. The
accounts of eastern papers do not do
him justice and he viii doubtless be-
come a favorite in Salt Lake Profess
sor A. Sake, of Fort Douglas, next
entertained the audience with two solos
on the saxaphone, his Ave Maria" by
Luzzi being a masterpiece. His COM
mand Of the instrument is truly Won
derful. The professor was succeeded
by Messrs. M. Morris, c. Merrill and
G. KingSbury in some beautifully rem
dered selections on guitars and mando-
Inns. The entertainment closed with
a finished duet by Miss Nora Gleason
and Mr.. John NJ. Holland. 1t is need
less for us to comment on the ability
of Miss Gleason. Her accompani- 4
ments would do honor to those far
older and given greater opportunities
The IriSh-American society takes this
opportunity to render its sincerest
thanks to all the above as also to
Messrs. M. Canton, Fred McGurrin,
