The commodious stage OF the Acade-
my of Music has rarely presented q more
beautiful appearance than was created
upon It last evening at 1.-THE closing exer-
cises of Misses Tucker and Blick's wide
ly popular music school. The platform
had been profusely and taStefully deco
rated with potted plants. ferns, swinging
baskets OF plants and gaily colored Jap
anese lanterns gracefully suspended
from the flies.
In front, entirely across the stage.
ana just behind the flashing footlights
were ranged scores OF baskets of flowers
of every variety and fragrance-theg gifts
of friends of the pupils. Behind these,
ana the sweetest flowers of allsat a
block of some three-score and more little
ladies clad in spotless white, from dain-
~ slipper TO curly head. And, last, but
by no means least, still further back
sat the Quintette of masculine talent
which has accomplished so much dur
ing the past session-five bright young
gentlemen who had kept up nobly with
the clever companions in which their
lucky lines had fallen.
The programme WAS an extensive one
with due regard to variety and harmony
Indeed II was most thoroughly enjoyed
from beginning TO end. every number
being rendered surprisingly we'll the
more so when the tender age of the ma
jority OF the performers Is considered
Throughout the entire evening not a
single mistake was made, and the large
au9ience which packed the Academy
from pit to dome, exhibited its pleasure
and appreciation by liberal and hearty
applause.
The programme WAS OF such length
| that individual mention Is impossible
and In She present instance, unfair It
would not be amiss, however. TO particu-
larly mention the scarf drill, executed
by eighteen pretty girls with brilliantly
hued scarfs and many merry, tinkling
oclls, forming as pretty "a, succession OF
scenes as the eye could desire to rest on.
