the currency. It also force. Mr. Mc

"Greeting and Parting" march, com
posed by Miss Kelly is deserving of es
pecial mention. Miss Bertha Simpson
sang the touching lover's appeal,
"Won't You Be My Sweetheart," In a
pleasing style, and the Highland Dance
by Miss Jennie Curtis w'aa gracefully
executed. Miss Etta Strauss maintain
ed her reputation as a good performer
upon the guitar, and Mr. Terry Mc
Kean, as the Darktown swell, carried
the house. "Angellne" was a hit.
The audience was carried back to
the old Castlllan days by the dancing ot
the Misses Sovey and Leberman. Miss
Holden appeared to decided advantage
and her contralto solo demanded a re
call, to which she responded with the
child's story in song, "Three Little
Lads."

Miss Kelley and Mrs, John Gratke

of the evening.
The scene from Shakespeare' "Mac
