AT THE OPERA-H0USE.
Last Evening the Children of Annuneia- ton Academy Delighted a Large
 Audience.

One of the happiest and most pleasurable eentertainmentse ever given by home talent in this city took place at the Oper-house last evening. It was that given under the auspices of the Sisters of Charity by the children of Annuncintion, for the benefit of the Catholic Church. The program was as unique ns 1t was delightful, and consisted of music-instrumenta and vocal-recitations, dialogues cal- Rsthenic drills, and all who took part acquitted themselves most cred itably, and won warm applause from the large audience present. Numbers of little lassies and lads, and older ones, too, deserve special mention. and the reporter for the GRAPHIC sincerely regrets that space will not permit him. to give them their dues. The managers of the entertainment are receiving com pliments on all sides for the skill, pa- tienee and energy required to make the affair such a success. both from a financial as we'll as amhsenment point of view.

chas. F. Underhill. the Impersonator.


 Last evening the above talented actor, and accomplished reader, ap- peared at Merrill Institute. He was greeted by only fair sized audience, which would have been much larger, doubtless, but for the attraction at the Opera-house. Mir. Underhill, successfully impersoniated five char acters in the celebrated play "The Rivals. He is endowered with a fine stage presence, added to which he has an admirable voice, and his interpretation of the characters was unstrained, graceful and free from exaggeration that it was most de- lightful to listen to him. He will be- come immensely popular with those of our people who appreciate the correct interpretation of classic English comedies, and do not like the artificialities of the stage. All who heard him last evening trust that he may be induced to return to Pine Bluff next season,

Such entertainments as that given by the pupils of Annunciation Aead- emy last evening are of inestimable value to those who took parts, for it gives them confidence in themselves, makes them feel at home in public, and takes from them that bashful and awkward feeling which clings to some people through life, simply be- cause they were not given proper training in their younger days, when 1t would have been easy for them to overcome that most disagreeable feeling.

Henry Ward Beecher said: "Ed- ueation is the knowledge of how to use the whole of one's self, men are often like knives with many blades; they know how to open one, and only one, all the rest are buried in the handle, and they are no better than they would have been if they had been made with but one blade. Many men use but one or two faculties out of the score with which they are endowed. A man is ed- ucated who knows how to make a tool of every faculty how to open it, how to keep it sharp and how to ap- ply it to all practical purposes

Choosing Partners.

At a recent progressive euchre party the other night the ladies were asked to go into an adjoining room and partners were put up at auction, says Good Housekeeping. Thecleve auetioneer mentioned the qualifica- tions of the unseen article as CA man who is both witty and wise and skillful at cards,a or "Here I have one who, though elegant and agree able, sometimes trumps his partners aces." 1t was as noisy as q stock exchange for few moments, and after once being awakened q compa- up never relapses into that state stigmatized as dull.
 At a recent charming private en- tertainment dainty baskets contain ing little packages wrapped in tissue paper were passed and were found to contain little stick pins, those hav- ing similar ones beginning the game together, while the consolation prizes" were small heads of cabbage scooped out, lined with pale pink tissue paper filled with candies, then put together and tied with pink rib bons.
 Another unique method of securing partners is by little rhymes written on slip of paper, folded compactly and placed in peanut shells, which are then tied with ribbons and passed to the gentlemen.
