ADJUSTMENTS.
During my " eek 3 stay in Laurel
vile / had one continuous round
of pleasure. GOOD fellowship and
good wishes were constantly in
evidence. One of the most pleas
ant and enjoyable features was the
entertainment given by the Otter
bin Illustrated Musical Amuse-
ment Company. This high class
company, under the management
of Drs L. I. Stoutenbergh of
Westervllle, Ohio, gave one of the
most strictly refined, moral, educa-
tional and up-to date, musical and
stereopticon entertainments it has
ever been our pleasure to attend.
Miss Sylvester, of national promi
nenbe, not only pleased the ears of
the audience with beautiful song
but rendered several very difficult
selections on trombone and banjo,
of which she is con
sidered master. Her plantation
songs were especially well rendered.
The Stoutenbergh Brothers, aged
10 and l3, are musical phenome-
non, born musicians, highly and
rigidly trained, they execute some
of the most difficult and classical
music. They have an ease, ex-
preston and finish in their execu-
tion that positively can not be sur
passed. The entertainment was
better by far than advertised.
