About half- seven o'clock th tients with their attendants marched into the hall to the sound of music by the orchestra—the male pa- Uents entering first and taking seats on one side of the hall, the females following and taking seats on the op} ite side.

Every piece on the programme was heartily applauded, particularly songs or recita- tons with an element of the ludicrous in then, which elicited hearty laughter. The laughing song of Mr. Tucker, and the very funny school-boy recitation of “Casa Blanca,” by Mr. White, seemed to please the en- tre avdience of insiders and outsiders best. At the conclusion of the entertainment the patients filed out to their wards, and the few visitors,who had the good’fortune to be present, were invited by Dr. Chase, the first assistant physician, and his estimable wife, to their apart- ments, where the party was joined by Drs. Witmer and Stack, of the institution, and re- freshments were served. After ashort period of social converse the visitors departed, well pleased. Miss Mary Harris was one of the inter- ested audience present. She feels aggrieved, it is sald, at the recently published statements that she had been the victim of her lover, Bur- roughs, whom she shot in the Treasury depart- ment. His desertion of her after a solemn Promise of marriage, was the only wrong she avenged.
