The herald., 1895-03-01

complete the whole is tho finest band
that has ever played here.
No words VIII adequately describe the
grace and harmony Of design, the stun
no matter what vantage point it is
viewed; no matter. how little or how
much OF it is seen, is altogether beauti-
full.
OF the band, too, only praise can be
said. Any organization OF wind instru.
ments that can play Tannhauser and
Faust with such shading, march or
waltz with such go, and swing and the
Peer Gynt suite with such exquisite art
as Mr.. Cassas s band played them all
last night, proves conclusively their. un-
equivocal right to place in the front
ranks OF bands, not only in the West, but
in the East as we'll.
The rendition of the Peer Gynt suite
was an exceptionally fine and clever piece
OF work, and it is not an easy task by any
means.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bates showed themselves
to be superior artists, and the concert solo
and duet added to the enjoyment of the
programme.
The fruit display is also on new lines, as
effective as it is unique, and except for the
handsome column in the center of the
hall, with its everlasting incandescent
lights, they are all placed low enough to
be looked down upon and enjoyed, and
each is so different from the other that
all are interesting.
In the gallery are the different booths.
presided over by attractive 'salesladies,"
who seemed to be doing land officl
business last night with customers, wh6
appeared to be glad that they had an
opportunity to spend their MONEY.
But then everybody looked glad-it W.
decidedly festive occasion.
Mr.. Freeman, Mr. Patterson, Mr. Wig
gins and Mr.. Willard, and the other genial
gentlemen who are more or less RESPONSE
bic for what may be termed a most I'M
equivocal success, beamed genally on
| the throngs OF men, women and children
| that were there.
They filled every inch Of space on the
main iioor, were seated four or five rows
deep in the first gallery, to say nothing
of the crowds of promenaders. In the
same gallery, and then way up stairs
were more-at least two rows, sitting and
| looking down on the attractive scene and
ever it played and applauding after nearly
every number with zeal and energy that
won them an encore from the obliging
conductor.
Among those who walked and stood,
sat and applauded were many familiar
faces as may be seen from the following
