The Choral Festival, which was to have been given in the Town Hall on the 14th ult., and was postponed on account of the weather, was rendered iu the Village on Monday evening, the 9th lust. Owing to the fact that it was not very well advertised, the at- tendance was not as large as it would have been. The program was one of the best ever given in town. The Chorus of 60 voices, under the leader- ship of N. E. Hicks of Centralia, sang with great spirit and their efforts re- flected great credit upon the Conduc- tot as an Instructor. They sang six numbers, the "Bridal Chorus" from the Rose Maiden, "King all Glorious" and the "Soldiers Cborus" frotn Faust, are worthyof special mention. The Imperial uartette of London, consis- ting of Messrs. Pink, Fitzgerald, Moule and Hicks were in good voice and sang with power. Messrs. Hicks and Houle displayed their abilities as solo- ists. The Quartette was repeatedly encored, and many bad a good laugh at the facial contortions of that jolly fellow, Pink. His solo "Empress of the Seas" and the duet"Excelsior" by himself and Mr. Moule were of a high order and well merited the loud ap- plause given. The final number "Crossing the Bar" by the Quartette was beautiful. Each singer dispayigg his part to perfection. The encore "Your Mother is praying tor you" was very suitable and ruore than one was delighted with it. Miss Clara Heist of this village sang the popular solo "!:ear not ye, 0 Israel" by Buck. Her singing was of a high order. Miss Lillian Elliott's solo "The Miller and the Maid" was well sung and took well with the audience. it is regrettable that more were not in attendance, as there was a great treat in store for those who attended. Mr. Hicks de- serves the congratulations of all for the able manner the prograin was ren- dered and we feel satisfied that if at any future time, he gives another en- tertainment in our Vitlage. that it will be well patronized. Great was the shock to our citizens when the sad intelligence was 'phoned from Detroit on 'Tuesday morning, that Mrs. fere' M. Humble (nee Ent- ut.a Ston n) had died in the hospital in th it city after goiig through an oper- ation. The deceased's body arrived here un Tuesday evening and the in• lea nient will take place in the Evan- gelical cemetery on Thursday (to -day) at 2 o'clock.
