A Pleasans Society Event.

Miss M. Louise Gallagher, harpist, of
 this city, recently appeared in one of thoss extremely delightful charity entertain ments in New York which have lately be- come such . fad among the ultra society people there. The method of these affairs is to bring together only artists of special excellence in the homes of ladies who have these various charities in charge, to which invitations are issued by the hostess the same ss for reception, with the practical addition that those who accept make do- nation to the charity for which the enter tainment Is given. The affair that Miss Gallagher took part in was given by Mrs. T. Fl. Hall of Seventy fifth street, and was in aid of the ''Children's Fold" of which Mrs. Hall is one of the trustees. Miss Gal lsgher's delicate and effective rendition of her classical numbers added to tho reputa. ton she enjoys in New York, and at the same time enhanced tho growing admira- ton for the harp that of late has obtained among the musically intelligent wealthy people of the metropolis.
 Nr. J. l.. Parke of Yale, violincellist, e duet with . harp, and his wonderful on this difficult instrument Was qualification to the critical audience.
 The rest of the program was made up by talented people. Professor DeSalszsn, . violinist of note; Mrs. Besson, soprano singer; Mrs. Robson, elocutionist; Mrs. Otterson, we'll known singer. and the Dramatic club, an. amateur which, during the present season, has done excellent work, and is much in demand, made up an evenings at once unusual in it's ex- ,ellence and very successful in its results tor charity.

 This undertaking course along brfce-f.red principles must contend with prevalent promiscuous price haggling now up, now down, now fixed. now unhxed, but the "one price" method has long been good enough for us and best for you.
