ENTERTAINMENTS.

The Western Addition Literary and Social
CLUB gave its usual monthly entertainment and
dance at ODD Fellows Hall last Wednesday
evening to a large and appreciative audience
Every number on the programme was we'll
presented. The California Quartet, which con-
sists of c. L. Goetting, K. NJ Smith. C. l.. Gage
Z. q. McBaine, was excellent They were
compelled TO answer several recalls before the
audience was satisfied. The soprano solo by
Mrs. l.. Maybell Smith was well sung She is
an exceptionally fine soprano. c. l.. Cages
barytOne solo was well appreciated as was
shown by the number of recalls he received.
He has a splendid voice and used il to advan-
tage. The farce, The Good. for Nothing, -
was produced by an excellent cast. The char
aeter of Nan was portrayed by Miss Zlllah
CoOney with great success. She kept the audi.
ence in a con tinual roar of laughter fIom the
time she made her entrance till she left the
stage. Miss CoOney possesses talent of high
order. Miss COOnley has happy disposition
which is plainly seen in her stage work and
makes her Il general favorite with her auditors.
Her voice is sweet and possessed of that svmpa-
theltc quality which strikes the heart a: once.
A w. Jones as Tom Dbbles did some very
clever work. He not only brought out all The
best part of the old mins character but made
1t exceedingly humorous as well His por-
trayal OF the old farmer can be considered one
OF his best characters. George CrandalI did
some fine work III the character OF Harry Col
lier. It Is suited In every way TO his style of
acting. The character is one that gives him a
chance % prove his ability, and this he did to
The entire satisfaction of the audience. Charles
Blanc was assigned the character OF Charley
but he failed TO put 10 an appearance and the
part was taken by E. j. Catlow on very short
notice. He had very little TO do, but il may
be said 10 his credit that lie did that
little well. Frank l.. Houpt, who appeared as
young MI. simpson, created a great deal of
laughter. He sustained the role OF the dude in
manner that reflects great credit on him and
is deserving OF high praise. A very enjoyable
dance concluded the evenings entertainment.
