A Really Grand Concert.

Agnes Thompson, soprano, and James
Fitch Thompson, baritone, announced
here for concert in the NJ. E. Church, on
the evening Of Wednesday, June 18th, in
conjunction with Henri Ern, violinist. Ga
pupil OF the celebrated Ysaye), Charles
w. Rietzel, 'Cellist, late of the Sedel Or
chestra, and Signor q. Gnarro, Pianist,
for the benefit of the Epworth League of
the Nj. E. Church, bid fair TO surpass any
concert of similar nature ever given
here. The vocalists, although in way,
known 10 the American public, have with i.
10 very short time attained prominent
place among the greatest singers who
visit this country.
Agnes Thomson is a young English
woman who made her fist great success
in Am, iica during the Worlds Fair, at
which time she sang at oil the principal
music events during the month OF June
and afterwards a series OF special con-
certs, sixteen in number, 10 the Music
Hall there. Her musical successes in
this country are replete with the honors
which Americans are always willing to
tender 10 foreigners whom they admire.
Her voice is of exceptional range, partic-
ularly of a light order, but still of that
beautiful quality which makes it discern
able, no matter what forces she may be
singing with. Thus, ia the Dvorak Re-
QUEEN, with chorus of 400 (The Apollo
Club, and orchestra of SO, and Theodore
Thomas as conductor, when the work was
given for the first time In Chicago at the
great Auditorium there, in the midst of
all the great ensemble with which the
work abounds, her voice WAS at all times
distinctly audible. The numbers which
she is TO sing on this programme are Sc
aud in addition to the wonderful skill
turd which she will display in her princi-
pal aria, she will sing number of beauti-
full ballads.
OF James Fitch Thompson II can only
be said that he is recognized as among
three or four of the greatest Baritones
that have been in this country this season,
and he divides with them the engage
ments for concerts which are given by the
great concert organizations OF the day.
The violinisi, Ern, will delight all who
come within hearing of his violin. He has
only been in this country since last Aug
ust, and is a recognized artist.
Tickets SO cents. Seats may be reserv-
ed without extra charge. Diagram open
on Monday noon, at Shamalia's drug

dozen large trees uprooted and some OF
them carried a long distance away. His

several times before they were able to
regain their feet A large farm wagon
was lifted over the fence and carried to
the middle of an adjoining field.
The barn OF James Opdycke, adjoining
Mr.. Rinehart's, was demolished and many
of his choice young fruit trees destroyed.
West OF Cherryville there was much
destruction. AT Samuel Johnsons 1t un-
| reofed some Of his buildings, besides
other damage to his property. Al Jacob

damage than anywhere else, as 1t blew
| down his barn, tore about one quarter OF
the roof from his house, nearly demol-
ished the chimneys, uprooted and broke
the shade trees in front OF his house, and
swept away all the outbuildings. II also
