It had been announced that there would be a civeus, but the young ladt were not prepared for quite such a literal fulfillment of the prophecy as they saw. W. F. Sapp, attved in a large pair of white pantaloons and several other things, with a long whip, played the part of the ring master. Kldon Lougee and George H. Mayne put themselves together in such a way as to wake an excellent elephant. ‘Wallace Shepard was the ossified man, bunt his appearance belied the placard, which announced that he Was) 32 years old and weighed only thirty- seven and one-half pounds. Thomas Met- calf, jr., played the handorgan, while Dr. H. A. Woodbury played the monkey, the technique of each being excellent, although there wight have been a little more execu- tion hud the spectators had thew own way and an axe.

Every selection by the quartet was enthusiastically applauded and several were encored, Mrs, J. Wads- worth sung several selections ina munner that fully sustained the reputation she had already obtained as a thoroughly artistic soprano. Herr Albin Huster, a violinist of great promise, made his first appearance be fore a Council Bluffs audience and snowed himself a master of the bow. “The concert to be given at Dohany’s opera house for the benefit of the Woman's Chir tian Association hospital will be a rare musical treat.
