E. church under the auspice of the Epworth League ai well attended and beartilj enjoyed br all. The fpe-cial feature of the evening' entertainment wan the soprano hoIoa by Mian Virginia X. Eastman, of Detroit, and her elections were delightful and the anticipation of the audience were fullj realised in this remarkable Tocalmt. Her voice clear and the tone is perfect and it appears to be as easr for her to sing the tcoet difficult selections as it is to converse.

Miss Eastman as on the program for four selections and she was required to appear in as many enthusiastic encores. Among the other numbers in the first part of the program was a piano selection by Prof. Q. L. Johnson, a tenor solo by Mr.

Alfred Nichols and a recitation by Mrs. James M. Merton, all of which were well rendered and thoroughly enjoyed. In the second half of the program, beside the selections by Miss Eastman, were a violin solo by Mr. Solomon, a vocal solo, "Slumber Song," by Mrs.

Whistler, a tenor solo by Trof. F. E. Andrews and a selection Imp the oelf organised Cluiuet Mandolin- aod guitar These numbers, were all very good and the club made a reputation tor first-class string music. The concert was a success financially and musically.

A Social KveaL The grand ball given by Heclu Lodge No. 90, 1. O. O. at the Calumet Light Guard Armory last eveniog was attended by about one hundred couples and all present had a most pleasant evening and enjoyed the dance thoroughly.

The party was given to celebrate the eleventh anniversary of tbe organization of the lodge in this city and tbe committee having the dance in charge left nothing undone to make the affair tbe success it was. Dancing was commenced early in the evening, and, with the exception of the intermission for supper, which was nerved shortly alter 12 o'clock, was kept up until early in the morning. The Daughters of Ilebeckah bad charge of the details and arrangements for serving tbe supper. Tbe spread set up by the ladies was first-class and they proved them selves caterers of no mean reputation. Karkeet's Ideal orchestra furnished music for tbe event and this well-known and popular musical organization strengthened its reputation for first-class dance music.

Mr. James Riney acted es prompter to the entire satisfaction of till concerned. Tbe dance was a success from a social standpoint and although not very largely attended, dancing as a real pleas ure and the party could have not been more enjoyable one. Heath of Mrs JobnL. Mclean.
