might well be proud to boast.
For some two or three weeks
plans had been under way for a
bazaar and supper to be given
for the benefit of the Episcopal
church, which was recently
erected. Some preparations
had also been made for a musi-
cal program for the evening.
Some member of the program
committee suggested that they
add minstrel feature. The
matter was discussed, talent Sc
cured and the result was far be-
yond expectations.
Thursday evening, Dece mber
II was the date for the bazaar,
and the program was announced
for the evening. This was di-
vided into two parts, the first
being composed of instrumental
solos, vocal solos, readings, lady
and mixed quartetts. The sec
and was a genuine minstrel in
every respect and the cleverest
thing that has been given in our
city in many months.
Part l opened with a piano
duett by Misses Helen Boehler
and Anna McMeel. Both young
ladies played we'll and the APP
plause signified the appreciation
Of the audience.
Francis Backe next appeared
and every one who mas heard
him sing, knew that a musical
treat was in store, and those
who we're less fortunate, were of
the same opinion long before he
finished Come Where the Lin
dens Bloom"
Prof. Hamilton next gave
reading which proved to be no
less appreciated than the prev
ious mum bers and only upon his
return with very catchy encore
did the deafening applause cease.
The next mum Der was a mixed
quartette, composed of Mrs.
VIM. Backe, Miss Laura Mack
ey, and Messrs John Sweet and
Francis Backe. This was their
first appearance as a quartette.
but as they appeared upon the
stage every one knew that some
thing worth while was coming;
Come Where my Love Lies
Dreaming" and their encore,
"Sleep Kentucky Babe" proved
this to be true.
Miss Mackey next appeared
and in her always pleasing man
ner rendered a selection from
II Trovatore and responded to an
encore with Songs my mother
Used to Sing" Miss Mackey is
an exceptionally fine singer and
it is always a pleasure to hear
her.
The next number was piano
solo by Miss Edith Miles. 1t
was we'll rendered and reflected
much credit both on Miss Miles
and her teacher.
The concluding number Of
Part | was ladies' quartette.
This was a little unexpected and
every one waited. In a manner
by far exceeding that of people
who have made such work "a
speciality, these ladies rendered
Little Cotton Dolly" and were
then compelled to respond to an
encore. The audience were in.
debted to Messdames Backe,
Martin Twist and Miss Mackey
for this umber.
After this nun Der the curtain
dropped and every one waited.
