A BRILLIANT ooNoERr.
Hawaiian Musicians Score a Grand
Success.

Mr.. Theodore Richards deserves
the thanks of the public for the ex-
cellent work done by him in organ
izing the Hawaiian Choral Club and
ip arranging and directing the fine
concert given at the Opera House
last evening.
Every seat in the house was occu.
pied and the audience was com
posed OF men, women aud children
OF all classes, races and social con-
ditions.
The receipts will be distributed
among several worthy benifcent in
situations and thanks are due to
those who assisted the Choral Club.
There was chorus from Kawaiahao
Seminary and one from the Kameha-
meha Girls School, There was the
Glee Club and the Mandolin Club
from the Kamehameha institution,
and the Either and Guitar Club Of
Waiahole did excellent service.
The mems chorus is very creditable
although there syet much room for
improvement. There are many we'll
trained voices among the members
OF the Choral Club but we hope the
director will succeed in developing
the deeper voices in proper pro-
portion to the size Of the chorus
and get the so.called tenors and
high baritones to drop the falsetto
voice which the Hawaiian only too
often use.
The girls who took part in the
concert have been we'll trained, and
the virtuous INDEPENDENT nearly
blushed when select chorus from
the Seminary in very fascinating
way attempted little graceful
ballet when singing the dear old
songs about the pussy cat"
The guitar and either playing was
very good indeed, the young either
player deserving special mention.
The police chorus made a good
appearance, but the boys IN blue are
more in their element running in
DRINKS than on the stage. The
song selected for them was toe
"heavy" altogether.
We hope that Mr.. Richards viii
keep up the good work aud arraug,
some more concerts. They vii
always be well patronized by an ap
preciative and grateful audience.
