Hear them The entertainment triven bv the choir of the Disciple church, last Friday ev enintr. proved to be another of these en joyable programs, with which Waterloo has been so abundantly favored of late, The opening anthem, with Mrs.

Ack man, as soloist; the glee, "On the moun tain life is free, and the chorus, 'Oh hush thee ray baby, were among the finest and best or the choral efforts of our church choirs. The anthem was erandlv rendered, and its solo delighted all. The spirit and vim with which the glee was sung, and the careful modula tion of voices in the chorus, proved the choir to oe one oi me oest trained, and most pains taking of any. Several de lightful quartettes were given, in which Mrs. Rose Miss Mattie Peters, Miss Emma Fisher, and Miss Bevier.

took part, assisted by Messrs. Anthonv, Scattergood. Reed. SShull. Nichols.

Har per and Bowman. Hson bhull and R. Shull, presented a duet for corn ets, and Miss May Davidson at the or pan, made a very favorable impression in an instrumental duet, with iTor. Davis. Mendelssohn edding March beinir selected.

The Sands O'Dee, ar raneed as a soprano solo, uv lay. was suns sweetly bv Miss Mattie Peters, sis ter to Mrs. Acknian. The echo of the building rendered it difficult for those in the rear to catch the. words, but the melodv pleased all.

Those who stayed away, missed a real treat in the elicu tionary presentations of Miss Adah tier hrst recitation, "L.ittle ur phaned Anna." was so smoothly and artlessly delivered, that, while her grace and naive melted the hearts of the out folks, the cheeks of the little ones paled at the visions of goblins she conjured up. The second recitation, "The Mani ac." was a fine piece of actmar. Her im itation of the wild wind constantly shrieking the call of the dead child, was worthy of even Charlotte Cushman or Bernhardt. The concluding trio for ladies, and succeeding quartette, were deep that and and say and did and the ple by A in to a verv nicelv suns, and merited trenerous applause, but most of the audience had been in the church three hours, and were tired. Although theentertaihment was a credit to the church and Prof.

Davis, and the choir, may justly feel proud at its accompiithment. b. chapman There are times and circumstances in life, when the feelings In the heart is too to be expressed by tongue or pen Such a time as that morning, when ball went on its awful mission, the darkest night of sorrow settled down upon us, and the terrible shadow of grief hung over us like a palL Then loving friends, with willing hearts and tender hands, came to us did all that was in the power of man to do. to help us bear that awful sorrow. There was nothing we could or do in that sad time, or now, but commend them to God.

who will bless reward them for what they did. Then when those same dear friends come again, in such numbers as they on last Monday evening, and so A A. completely surprised us ana iiierauy plied the good things ol uie upon our tables, including nice sum of money also bnnsrinar the quilt made by loving sisters, we are completely overwhelmed with their Kindness to us, and feel that we do not merit all those expressions of good will. Kind friends. please accept our weaKinanKs ior wnat you have said and done for us.

We believe God will remember such a peo and reward them as they deserve. W. F. Ackmax, M. K.
