Selections from the "Tenderfoot," by Herts, were played as the overture, Schunke's "Ak-Sar-Ben March." and "Bag-time Bevels," by Pryor, oomprlaed the second number. These were warmly received. D Koven's "Robin Hood" won eiceptionat favor with the sud leneo, and Mr. Bow don ung "Tb Heart Bowed Down" In hi beet manner and allo tted prolonged applause-. Mr. Kryl soared hit with the cornet solo; "Honeysuokle and Bee." He responded to encore and again was stormed' with applause. The sixth number of two parts won such ap proval that a third was called In before the auditor would allow the program to continue. , "La Faloma," by Tradler, was prettily played, and "Tba Baby,", a con cart polka by Blal, proved highly entertaining. The tneof t this number wg the sextet from "Lucia. Mra Partridge sang "A Merry Cngara" (Wellmar), and recponded to en core. .After the playing of "Navajo" tho floor was cleared and the dancing began.
