Its tone was rich, smooth, and re- fined, and the general effect showed not only the results of Mr. Thomas’ old-time drill with the men, but also the more recent work of Mr. Brand, who is following closely in Mr, ‘Thomas’ footsteps, and proving himself a worthy suiecessor, Their program numbers were admirably selected by way of varicty and Interest, nud one of tho most charining of them was tho “ Czardas” set by Brains, whieh was delightfully played. It {8 to ba hoped this fine organization may be heard here under more favorable auspices, and ato timo when on audience can be tnd, and also at atime when such excellent players as these have not been dragged all over tho city to play until they aro nearly exhausted, ‘The voenl assistance nunounced in the program was Mrs, Lous Falk, Miss Helene Batatkn, aud nselected male quartet, Messrs, Knorr, Wheoler, MeWate, and Nobie, at Farwell Hall the audienco, was still smuiller than at McCormick's, and tho heat was too intense for anything ike comfort, much Jess cujoyment.

The Central Musle-fiall was better filled than the other two, owing to the new attrac: tion.of the bullding for strangers, but even here the audience was very sinall, ‘Tho or chestra played the Weber Jublice Overture, Strauss’ Pizziccato Polka, tho Audunte from Beethovew’s, Fifth Ssiphony, and’ Meyer- beer’s “Schiller March,” and the vocal assist- ance was Miss Balatka, Mrs. Davis, and the Apollo male quartet, Those who were in attendance at the con- ecrts—and they were entirely strangers, ex- evpt at MeCormick’s, wherg some of our nin- sleai people turned ont In spite of the leat to hear the Cinelunati Orchestra—aoppeared to be delighted, and encores were frequent, but they would hardly piss muster ag first-class concerts, but rather as impromptu and ered- itable popular entertaliments, THE THEATRES. HOUSES AND SURPINSED TICRET- HOLDERS. To the general public the doors of Me- Vieker’s, Maverly’s, and Huoley’s Thentres were closed last night, The performances at those places wero miven for the amusement of the Knights Templar, It is understood that the managers of Mooley’s nud Haverly's Theatres reecived from tho ‘T'emplar Committees the sun of $500 each, the former by the operation losing not less thun $700 and the latter notless than $900, Judging from the recelpts of the previous nights of the week, Mr, MeVicker refuses to say whether or not he recetyed no shuilar sum, although it hus been sald that he donated his house and Maunger J.
