Before the performance began the Fori Steele Brass Band played several selections in front of the Opera House, to the great delight of many who were listening to the music as it limited out on the calm air of the evening, and who noted with satisfaction the steady improvement in execution that this young musical organization is making, The opening selection of the orchestra was well received, and Mrs. Macmlllan, who followod with tlie charming song of "Eugenia," was accorded a hearty recall, to whicli she gracefully responded. It was on (lie programme thai Miss Kershaw, our most talented elocutionist, should favor the audience witli one of lier ininiita ble recitations, hut a recent illness, from whicli she had nol quite recovered, prevented her appoariug, and al a later stage in lhe programme her place was supplied by Mr. .1.
