One of he ii' e-d ent rtain u-nts it has ever be n our go i fortnn to at-* tend was given b> the Kn ghts of l’yth i is of this e ty .it the opera house last Thursday even ug. The opera house was comfortably tilled hy Sir Knights, their 'adie.s an 1 invited guests, and was a veritable song ef pleasure from first to la t Elaborate prepar tions had been made hy this grand order for a feast, for a lion of wit 1 d oratory, of music and of the dia na, all of which excel ded the h gh ex lectati Ii- ol all At 6:30 in the evening, the beauty mid chivalry of Loup City began to arrive en masse and soon the hah wa< a scene of social activity. Tables, groaning un der their gr< at loads of the ch -icest eui bles, fruits and dainties of all kinds, jr - pared by ihe delt fingers and loving hearts ot the wives, daughters and s.ve-the irts of the gall .nt Sir Knights, nearly tide I the spacious hall, capo h of seating o. e hundred and forty at the banqueting I oar I, wereoceupied nearly the second time, to which all did ample justice. At tiie cl<s* of the oanque. came a flow of wit and oratory, contin ually punctured with applause by the delighted guests, that past master in [ tlie art, lion. K J. N ightinga.e, acting i as toastmaster, and t<» say be did well | is putting it t mely—the difficult place c-in id not have t* e> in more cotnp tent ! hands Hon. H. M Mathew gave the 1 welcome address, for which he was pre eminently well fitted and was at his very best, his s -Hies of wit and humor provoking continual apulau e. It was a source of regr.-l that Judge Wail,who had the | rinc pal toast < f the evening, “the Ueautiesol Knighthood,” was un able to be present, and was the only source of regret for the evening the otner toasts were, however, given in such a happy vein as to make up great ly for the loss. W. K. Metlor left his hearers in doubt as to what he knew about some ">ecr*t8.” Robt. iJ. Starr delved into “The Romantic,” with the ! confidt nee of an expert on that deli cious. dreamy experience, wmle John \V Long gave *‘Th Ladies’ some of the pulsa ions of hissusceptib e heart— yeais ago, v hen it was young and ten der. Following the banqueting and toasts, and while preparations were be ing made for llie comedv to r>e present ed later, Mr. Ii. i\ VlcKinnie, whom we s<-me time since mentioned as having been in operatic work in the past, fa vored the audience with several m* st excellent baritone solos, being accom panied by Mrs. Starr in pan and at oth er times plajing his own accompani ment, ti-e anplause following • ach song only stilled when he consented to favor witti another solo. Asa musician, Mr. McKinnie is ,<n artist par excellence. Following came a most laughable little comedy, full of perplexing situations, characterized by Mesdaine* R. P. Starr and VV. lVdler, Miss Cora Leiningerand the Messrs. Lawrence Smith and Stew art Conger, each of whom did their work as to the manor born, and kept up the ripple of amusement throughout. All in all the Sir Knights, their ladies and alt who participated in getting m> and carrying forward the entertain ment are to be heartily congratulated on its unqualified success.
