CHORUS CLUB ENTERTAINMENT.

One of those present at the Chorus club entertainment in Harmonic hall last Friday writes as follows: The en- tertainment given by the Hllhouse chorus club in Harmonic hall last Fri day evening was a success. The first part consisted of songs and readings. A farce, "The Marble Arch,' concluded the affair. Cast: Jack Mereweather (newly married), J. Webb Dillon; Cap
 tain Trentham Gin pursuit of wife), w. Richard Smith; Constance Came
 ron (running away from an unknown
 husband), Annie Lane; Marion Mere weather (Jacks wife), Neva Russell
 Benham. Mr. Dillon has a good stage
 presence and pleasing voice; these, combined with natural talent for act ing, enabled him to carry out the part of the husband excellently. Miss Ben
 ham as Jacks wife portrayed the part to perfection and showed fine dramatic ability. Miss Benham is considered the best amateur actress in the city, and may go on the professional stage next | season. We predict success and a bright future for her. She has true
 genius.
 w. Richard Smith as Captain Trent ham carried his part admirably throughout the play, and kept the au- l dience in good humor. Mr. Smith has ! accepted position with the Grover Dramatic company, and starts on the road very soon.

coLLIDED WITH THE PILGRIM

Sound Steamer Sinks Schooner Which
 Sailed from Here Sunday.
 New York, April 23.--The Fall River steamer Pilgrim and the fishing schoon- CT Samuel Kicker, of this port, collided off Cornfield at 20 o'clock this morn ing. The Kicker sank almost immedi- Captain Allen. The Pilgrim lowered a boat and picked up Norwegian sailor, the only other occupant of the schoon- CT. According to the crew of the Pil- grim, a very heavy fog enveloped them and they were going ahead cautiously sounting the whistle at shorter inter- vals.
 Suddenly the Kicker appeared on the starboard beam and came smashing into the Pilgrims side amidships The smaller craft suffered by the impact and as she settled back after the blow began to fill and sink The Pilgrim was stopped and a boat hurriedly low cred over the side. The boat found one sailor struggling in the water and , pAChCo HiAl up. I1C WdS ulldplG u speak English enough to give his name but he indicated that he and Captain Allen were the only ones on the schooner.
 A portion of the Pilgrims rail was carried away, her wheelhouse was stove in and several stanchions were smashed! The Kicker was sixty-four- tonner and hailed from this port.
 The schooner Samuel Kicker sailed from this port early Sunday morning with a. cargo of 5000 bushels of seed oysters shipped by the Smith Brothers, of City Point for s. D. Greene, of War ren, R. I. The oysters were to be used for transplanting in Warren river. The Kicker was loaded and ready to sail on Friday, but the continued period of northeast winds and rough sea prevent ed the Kicker, with a big fleet of other small vessels, from sailing to the east ward. Captain Allen impatient because of the tedious delay, hoisted sail and weighed ancher on Sunday and started for the eastward.
 Captain Allen, the master who was lost, is not known here. The vessel was built at West Haven in 1870, but hailed from New York. Her cargo of oysters, valued at Sl,o00 was insured, tiie risk being held by the Security In- surance company, of this city.
