ment, were meritorious and were well re-
| ceiyed. Gray's orchestra, so well known
and highly appreciated in this vicinity that
| commentator in this correspondence ia not
| necessary, gave two selections that were
| heartily spplauded. The violin playing by
| Mr. Nye WAS perhaps the most interesting
feature of the entertainment and he was en-.
cored again and again. In his numbers old
familiar airs were recognized, played with
J original variations that we're truly wonder
full Miss Lincoln sang solo in pleasing
| manner, and was warmly encored The
solo by Mrs. George Kelton showed the
melody and power of her voice and demon
