The stage was beautiful, it was transformed mho • a clearing in the midst of woods. ' A wooden awing was in the foreground in which two boot" were Winging, while other six were standing near; red light was cast over the whole scene. These eight boys opened the concert with the ''Swing Song." It was given with the heartiness of boys and the confidence and skill resulting front careful preparatio». Miss Carter followed the boys, and she charmed the audience in her rendering of the "Car- nival," she was encored and sang very prettily, "The Way of the World you Know." Mr. Fry appeared twice in the first part ;.his last selection "No - man's Tower" was especially enjoyed. Miss Florrie Hughson recited the "Street Gammon's Story of the Play"; in the dainty dressed little figure and :the winsome face and manner we re- cognized the ideal American. . Her selection was given with the skill of an older ,person, and with the grace of a •child, She .was heartily encored, aed gave a very graceful recitation, "The Dance in the Kitcheue' later, she ren- dere& th e Mil1tnry SteepleChase" with wonderful ' effect. Miss McMurray, Miss Olive: and Mies Chisholm were the three remaining soloists. Miss McMurray has a charming stage pre- sence and her voice was exceedingly sweet in the "Love Setae though it was not so strong as usual. Miss Oli- ver gave exquisitely the "Bells of St. Marys" ; she was enthusiastically encored and sang a little operatic piece • "Come •down, Darling- Mint." Miss Chisholna's rendering of the "Sky Lark" Wei most beautiful; so also was her encore "Duleiana." This part of the programme was closed by the round "Chicago Street Cries," given by the eight boys. It was truly renta.rk- able, confusion seemed predominant, yet order was preserved throughout. An account of the second part of the programme can be nothing better than a negative. The outline can be grveu, but all the brightness and gaiety fade away from it. It was now to be an old time concert and everything was in keeping. Every performer had done his or her utmost to make the costume; as old-fashioned and as pretty as possible; the result of their united efforts was most unique. First, a few young men and young women were seen pic- nicing, while at a little distance was the grandmother inseparable from her spinning -wheel. Mystresse Melytahle Hospytable, (Miss Oliver) then appear- ed and in songshe told her children that their cousins were corning:to tea. At once alt was interest and preparation. In the distance the approeching cousins were singing "Cheer Boys Cheer!" growing louder until they came upon the scene and were overpowered with welcomes. As order was restored they seated themselves upon the grass to have a merry thne. Florrie Hughson, very quaintly dressed in white sun- bonnet, pinafore and pantalets, told the cousins about '.Katrinn's vyeyte to ze greate cyty." Then Mrs. RAMS - ford, acting the part of grandmother perfectly sang "Darby and Joan." In the quartette that followed in spite of the ponderous names we recognized Miss .1cMarrity, Miss McWhinney, Miss Carter and Miss Campbell; and in spite of the old time costame.s the song was as sweet as ever. The hostess then invited her guests to see her house, and all left. An old darkey (Mr Israel) then came upon the desert- ed grounds, and broke into the song of "Darling Olo," while behind the scenes was heard the banjo accompaniment and other voices joining softly in the chorus. When the darkey retired Miss Oliver dressed as a fish wife, carrying a creel, came forward, and in the song of "Caller Herrin" she cried her fish. It was beautifully done. The boys then cnme out dressed aa tinkers and went splendidly through their. chorous with tan pan accompan- iments. The next scene waa beauti- ful. A little Irish cabin was added to the scenery and when the cur - tab] rose again a pretty little Irish Maiden (Miss Chisholm) was sleeping at its door. Derruot's (Mr. Fry) love song in the distance, and then her ans- wer as they walked hand in hand were beautiful. "Johnnie's so long at the fair" closed the artistic part of the programme. Miss, McMurray sang very prettily, and in the chorus she waspined in her coquettish invitation by sixteen other impatient maidens. When handsome young Johnnie (Mr, McCrea) appeared all clustered around him, repeating the chorus and waving aloft their blue riblms. "Our Own Cemulian Rome" sung hy the perform. ere, and God save our Quebressung by ever/one, closed, this exeeedingly in - tweeting Afitthriginal (Concert. es's; "." • • Neva?P Ioar ttiOft bruq.7444 ipoken T bee been our %total) w 111 from thi itiirt and onrowth proves,the truth of 11, tfolittus but the best F.irattito it any prio.p, but the priaa s aa law Pe the lowest.

RUNAWAY.— Last Thursday Mr. Hovey's horse, which was attached to a light dray wagon, took fright on Isaac street and proceeded at a break- neck pace around the corner up past the post office, and along Victoria street. The animal collided with one of the big willow shade trees in front of the Rattenbury House and was landed out several feet on the road. A few feet further on the harness gave way and the whiffletree iron fastenings snapped off, se that the horse secured its liberty without much datuage.

In the boys' race there were six starters and the race was hotly con- tested all the way and finally won by Cecil Agoew, best time 53 seconds. The handicap was won easily by May- or Hohnes. He surprised all has com- petitors. In the mile open race .Jow- ett, Manville and Emerson faced the starters.

Manville spurted past the speedy Bayfield hay and heat him Immo in .one of the nicest finishes eyer seen:on thistrack—time 2.50.
