the Centennial in 1876; Paris exposition
in 1889 and at the Worlds fair at Chi

in concert in many of the chief Arner1-

success. Mr.. Eddy fully sustained his
reputation last evening; he is free frc2n
all mannerisns.
Mr.. Eddy is an old friend of Miss Mel
lis and the appreciation he showed in her
success was delightful to see; he led her
to and from the platform at each per
Torrance and at the close of the pro
gramne before the applause had died
away he gave her a hearty handshake
When arranging for her concert Miss
Nellis received a letter from him saying
that she might command him for one
evening.
Miss NeIlis has an attractive stage
presence; She is a decided blond, short
and slight. Her hair was curled ard
caught high on her head; she wore i
handsome Paris gown of white Let
heavily spangled in silver which show
ed to advantage all her graceful move
nents- At the close of two of her num-
bers a quantity of beautiful roses were
handed to Miss Nellis and as she bow cd
her thanks, both arms full of the frag-
rant blossoms she presented a charming
appearance.
The programme from beginning to en1

Allegro FantabiIe and Toccato by Chas

she responded with a composition BY

arranged by List, as an encore The
gem of the entire evening. however, was
the closing number Of the programme:
it was Tschaikowsky's Concerto B fiat
minor, played by Miss Nellis with or
chestral accompaniment by Mr.. Eddy.
1t was the most difficult performance of
the evening but was played with an ease
and skill that captivated the audience
Miss Nellis' playing throughout was
marked by its brilliancy as well as its
delicacy Of execution and depth Of feel
ing, and the ease of her manner could
not fail to inspire her hearers with con-
fdence. After the concert q informal
reception was held
