MR. EARLE’S CONZERT.

The high esteem in which Mr. Earle is beid by the musicial citizens of Charlotte- town was evinced by the crowded house which greeted him last night. Seldom bave we seen a more appreciative audience or listened to a more generaliy excellent progranime. The evening opened and closed with choruses rendered with a great amount of spirit, the parts being well bal- anced. In‘euch a varied programme it is bard to pacticularize, one and all being most enjoyable and creditable to the condactor. The voeal quarieites were enthusiastically encored and Srell merited the applause they received. The vocal trio was eleo good. “Out on. the deep” was well sung by Mr.G. Stewart who is the possessor of a good bass voice, The Spanieh dance by Miss Helen Warburton, and the strathspey, by Mise Belle Paton,

were both very pleasing features. Miss uefurgey recited § in her happy and impressive style, skilfully

accompanied by Mr. Earle. Two opera- tic selections were suug by Miss Edoa Sinclair, the last with choru- accom- pan'ment. Mr. Charles Earle as an ‘wita- tion [rishman, brougbt Cown the house in * Learning McFadden to Waltz,” and loud and long was the demand for more. The instramental part of the programme was perhaps, in a musica! way, the more worthy of praise. The piano quartettes were eplendidly rendered aud the orchestra under Mr. Vinnicombe dis-~- coursed such music as is seldom heard in a city of this size. Mr. Earle has the hearty thanks of all who listened to the rendition. His concerts are always good. But this exceeded his previous efforts; and the audience plainly showed their delight and appreciation,

Towards the close of the entertainment two of the electric wires in the fly gailery Phere was some smoke and a disagreeable smel!, but it was all over ina few minutes .There was some uneasiness, especially the ladies, over tLe affair; and it is hoped that steps will be at once taken to pr - vent, if possible, a revetition of the occur- rence,

ENGINEERS AT SUMMERSIDE

Tre contingent from tke Engineers r:- turned hom e this morning at an early ho after a most enjoyable trip, and without misbap of any kind.

Shortly after arriving at Summerside the boys marched to St. Mary’s Sunday School where ‘he ladies of the ccnzresa tion were holding a bign tea. luxor ious spread warted the sclidier boys ana after each man was served the c/flicers gave the command “Dismantie Tabie’ and the sappers then gave a good exnibi~ tion of how to handle the implements re~ quired at such close quarters. tinished this task thev were marched to

Montgomery Ha!] and there went through |

a few movements of company drill for the benefit of the Boy’s Brigade. The hall was too sma] though to attempt any extended form of drill. Accompanied by the Boys Brigade and headed by the local * band they then marched tothe Market Hall and put onthe programme already known to Chan Jottetonians.

The various events were Jiberally ap- plauded and proved most interesting in all cases. The roll call was most impressive and gave the audience a gocd idea pic- torially of what the troops went through in the warof the Cr.mea. Sapper Riggs won the final in the fencing bout by one point, and Lieut. Morris was victorious in sword versus bayonet. The bayonet ex- ercise was performed with appreciation that would give regulars bard work to im - prove upon, and tne mat drill under Lieut. Lordly was like clockwork, being a beau- ful example ot how men can be trained to work together.

The last stand wasa stirring realistic reproduction, and if the Island boys cau do in actual] service what they accomplished on the stage then we have no feir of them doingiheir work. Bugler Ball acted his part to perfection and Sergeant Bugler Anderson simply captured the house. His solos, Let me like a seldier fall and “It’s ovly aSmall Piece of Bunting” were

cleveriy rendered and the audience would |

gladly have lietened to more. At the close of the programme,cheers were given for the Queen, the citizens of Summerside and the Boy’s Brigade. The train left for home about 11,30, The Enzineers woo
