HOME TALENT.
Its Splendid Achievement at
Infantry Hall.
The Feast Of Roses and 0peratic
Carnival.
IrIo,.o.. GnuUa Dance and Iiyinu
Flowers, Songs, Dance, and Living
Pictures Make the Whole.

The efforts OF the ladies Of the Home |
Talent Club to get up something that is
something in the way of festival and en-
tertainment were consummated last even
ing in Infantry Hall and the result Is
more than satisfactory.
They have name their product "fhe
Feast of Roses and Operstic Carnival"
which title is not bit too elaborate for
the show itself. Flowers, pictures, re-
| freshments, scenery, dancing, singing and
| instrumental music are the ingredients OF
this most pleasing combination. And they
| follow each other in dazzling succession
without waits and the knack of having
| Just enough of each and no more Is shown
! TO a nicely.
One of the best features is the method
OF accommodating the patrons. The
| main floor is covered with little
round tables where parties OF
four and six, or even Of two, may be by
themselves, have ices and other things for
the asking, and as the man in the cab
thought one mig ht, sit at table and think
how much better 1t is to sit at a table
than to be crowded on a settee and think
how much better it would be TO sit at
table.
An elaborate program, gotten up after
| the style OF the Kirmess and Spielkarten-
| fes books, contains the record OF attrac-
| tions for the several matinee and evening
! performances that are 10 be given.
Last night, for instance, the stage per-
formance opened with the "Thunderer
March" by Souss, arranged for voices and
words by Charles Lovenberg. Then
came the Sailors Hornpipe, in
which a group of pretty young ladies
danced to perfection. This, for the sake
of contrast, was followed by series OF
living pictures of the clubs own arrange
ment, and they were one of the prettiest
things in the show. They were not
classical, but they were new and remark
ably attractive in their colors and group
ings.
Opera came next and the selection for
the evening was one OF the choicest bits
from Carmen" with Miss Florence Will
liams as Carmen, and Mr.. James Feeley
as Escamillo, and splendid chorus with
all the singers in Spanish costume.
Before the people at the tables had got
through wishing for more Of Carmen"
Mr.. Lovenberg's musicians struck up q
brand new mSrch and grand military
drill by the young ladies under
the direction Captain M. A. Kelly
was in progress The name
of the new music is "The News Gatherers
March," 1t was written by T.. B. Salandri,
dedicated to the Providence Press Club
and Is an excellent piece OF composition
A shadow pantomime was introduced
at this point and the ridiculous effects OF
advancing and receding figures behind q
v screen was as funny as a basket OF mon
l. keys.
The Lovenberg sisters, Estelle and
Y Addie, brought out their lively band OF
pickaninues and helped out lot II
n making the entertainment wha
it was and the concluding
numbe on the program was series o
:. solos and choruses from the "Chimes o
Normandy" with Miss Mamie Monahar
ia as Germaine, and Miss Florence William
IA as Serpolette.
- There is promenade concert before ant
after the stage attractions by Lovenberg'
orchestra, and Dunlap's electric illumi
mated fountain is one OF the final delig ht
to be enjoyed after the show as you 81
and eat cream and discuss the differen
dances.
