At Wheeling Park Last Night-Enjoyable
Stag Entertainment.
The annual Sommernachtsfest OF the
Opera House band and orchestra, which
was postponed from last Wednesday
evening on account of the rain, took
place at Wheeling Park last night The
weather was much too cool for an out
of-door entertainment. but there was
nevertheless good sized crowd in at
tendance, and from a standpoint of
pleasure; the affair was a complete sue
cess. The early outgoing w. & E. G..
cars were all well filled, the ladies and
gentlemen all carrying wraps on ac-
count of the cold weather.
The enclosure was lighted by cleo
tricity, and by the vari-colored lamps
which were suspended from the arches.
The concert programme was rendered
from the handsome and commodious
new band stand, and it was richly en-
joyed. The bill of numbers has been
heretofore published in the Register.
The selections were made with view
to pleasing persons of varying tastes,
and the result was one of the most de-
lightful instrumental concerts ever
given by the band.
When the last number was played
the orchestra took up a position on the
Casino platform and discoursed sweet
strains for the devotees of the dance.
Supper was served throughout the
evening in the Casino cafe. Special w.
C E. G. cars brought the throng back
to the city after one o'clock.

Mandolin Club discoursed excellent
music throughout the evening. At one
o'clock all repaired to the dining room,
where Caterer Otto had prepared a
feast ''fit for the gods" Connoisseurs
would have pronounced the wines per-

an early hour this morning when the
assemblage dispersed, and the host was
voted prince of good fellows.
