THE MUSICAL.

One OF The msst pleasant musical en-
tertainments on Wa1sworth's SOCIAL isl
took place at Music Hall last Friday
night, and was given by Mrs. Cora feek,
assisted by her class. 1t was well at
tended and all seemed satisfied II were
loud in their praises of Mrs. Peeks sue
cess as Il teacher and the progress OF hef
scholars, during the short time she mas
been teaching here.
The entertainment opened with a
chorus entitled "Moonlight Dance by
the class, which was very well executed.
The instrumental trio, "Barbier De Sew
| ille," rendered by Misses Jennie Mar
shall, Josie O'Brien and May Pollock.
was one OF the events Of the evening and
was loudly appiauded. Alice George
played "At Home Again" and did very
well. Misses Jennie Marshall and Josie

usual sweet way and earned great APP
plause. Miss Josie O'Brien's instrument
tai solo, "HArmonies Du Soir," was well
received. The instrumental duet,
"Love's Dream After the Ball." was
well executed by Misses Claire LAWS
and Alice George. The second part
opened with the "Bubble Chorus by
the class and it was very pretty and well
performed. The instrumental solo,
"March Hongroise,' was well performed
by May Pollock, after which Alice
George favored the audience with Il de-
lightful rendition of The Raccoon And
the Bee" which was a great success and
was deservedly encored. Miss Mamie
Donelin and Mrs. Cook sang a duet,
Beautiful Moonlight" which was very
pretty and we'll received. Miss Jennie
Marshall's performance of the instru-
mental solo, "Galop De Concert La
Chase Infernalle," another event OF the
evening, was unusually good and as we'll
received as it was played. The instru-
mental duet, "Love's Labours Won,"
by Misses Mamie Donplin and May
Pollock was very well executed. The
Burnt Cork Specially, by Messrs. Fred
Washeim and Roy Lewis, was as good
as they usually do and this is where
they regained their lost reputation as
colored artists. The instrumental solo,
"Monuet" by PaIerewski. was well per-
formed by Miss Claire Lewis, to whom
a great deal of credit il due for her com
mitment of such a composition. Mrs.
Peek and Miss Mamie Donelin ontdid
all previous performances in their rem
dition of Verdi's famous Grand Fantasia,
III Trovatore." During the perform
ance the blacksmith scene was arranged
for the anvil chorus and the tableau
lights were thrown IN. 1t was a capital
scene for the picture artist. The last
number was a tableau In which the
members OF the class were arranged on
the stage with the several different mus.
ical instruments. 1t presented a very
pretty Gene.
The floor was o cleared and by the
application of a little soapstone was put
in good condition for the dance, which
lasted until early in the morning
Messrs. Dave and Fred Wosheim anC
Mrs. Peek furnished good music, and
all remarked that they had surely spen,
one more pleasant evening. Great cred.
it is due Mrs. Peek for her perseverance
and work in presenting TO Wadsworth
program of such excellence. We hope
it will be repeated.
