larger key of 16 gallons, which was full he
concluded to forstall any attempt to cap

The Choral Unions Fine Concert.

The concert of the Choral Union in
the opera house Tuesday evening was,
in many ways, the finest concert given
by the Union in it's history. While it
was given under many disadvantages,
chief among them being the illness of
two soloists, yet the entire program
passed off without hardly a slip of any
kind. The chorus work was par
ticularly fine, showing the hard work
done during the winter under the able
direction of Nelson P. Coffin. The
program was divided into two parts,
the first consisting of varied chorus
and solo work. and the second of
Gauls Holy City. The first part open
ed with the chorus Awake Thou that
Sleepest," from Stainer's Daughter of
Jairus," rendered by the chorus in a
very acceptable manner. The bass
solo, my Little Love-" by Robert
Shelley pleased the audience greatly,
especially as Mr. Shelley only agreed
to take the solo work late Tuesday
afternoon on account of the illness of
his brother. Miss Ingenue Fassett's
rendering of MoZart's Sonata No. II
showed much improvement during the
winter spent in study in Boston. Miss
Fassett has truly the artists skill in
the use of the violin. The two So
prano solos by Miss Cora Shedd, "Give
Me Discourse" and "Titania's Cradle"
drew loud applause from the audience,
while Mrs. Nettie Dunhams piano
solo, "Fruhlingraschen" proved again
her complete mastery of the instru-
ment. The second part of the con-
cert, consisting of Gaups Holy City,
showed more clearly the regular work
of the Union. The entire piece was
rendered in a very pleasing way and
was of a class seldom heard in Bel
lows Falls, the solo work of Mrs. Marie
Summers, Miss Florence Goodhue and
Miss Alice Jackson deserving especial
praise. The Union netted about
$125 from the evenings entertainment,
which will just about pay the expenses

portance to man. He spoke of as
tronomy and the discovery of many
new stars and new facts about Older
