the middle of the stage What caused
sudden appearance on it of a magnificent
floral car of huge dimensions, over
which lowered on SpiralS several stuffed

along the wire until it was in full view

he bowed now with his right hand on
his chest, and again with his left hand
there. AS the car approached quite
near to the prompters box the singer
moved forward to remove it from it's
trolley. 1t was at that moment that the
keen Zest Of the occasion became con-
spicuous. Not only was there one wire;
there were two, and the second one was
attached to one end of the car and at
the other end to the hand of particu-

marvellous rapid1ty the car suddenly
shot back to the balcony.

Tuesday evening, September Is, as the
date, and the Grand Opera house as the
place for her recital. She will be aided
by some of the best local talent. Miss
Snyder has so often given her services
for local charities that her concert
ought to be a big success. Only one
thing can make it so i'm these times,
howeveu'-wor1; and we are pleased to
learn that the young lady has fr1ends
who intend to see that no work Is
spared.
H. S. Goddard, the well known bari
tone and vocal instructor will give the
first recital by his pupils in the Com
gregational church about the middle

promising pupils will take part, and
a high class entertainment is prom
ised.
There was very little difference be
tween the size Of last nights audience
at the theatre and that which assem-
bled on E1iason's opening. The young
wizard has certainly made an excel
lent beginning, and the applause of his
second nights audience told what
rich entertainment was found in his
programme Everything passed off
last evening with even more smooth
ness than before. The company will
rest a few days and them leave for
New Orleans, where the real battle for
favor begins.
