MR P.R. DIX'S CONCERTS.

' The attendance at the twenty-fifth of the i Monday popular concerts last evening was | well up to the average. A special attrac- | tion was introduced in the shape of a limelight baby-show, when photographs taken by Mr Edwards at the opening of his new I studio were exhibited to the delighted j audience. The musical portion of the proj gramme was exceptionally good last ] evening. Mr Cadzow sang the everj popular "Maid of Athens" in a manner | that elicited rounds of applause. The j violin obligate to Cristabel's fine song was i played with great taste by Master Jack . Garry. Later on Mr Cadzow rendered | " Estudiantina," with appropriate verve. j The popular tenor was recalled after both j his numbers. Mr George Garry, an accom- ; plished cornet solo player, made his first , appearance at these concerts, and scored a ; distinct success with his solos, " The Lost II Chord" and Meihden's "May Waltz," | both of which were encored. Songs were | rendered by Miss Katie Fitzpatrick, Mr ; Archdale Tayler, Mr John Reid, and a ! humorous sketch by Master Bertie Lork- ,; ing. Signor Cebasfs orchestra played the | overtures in a pleasing manner, and J Madame Cadzow made a very efficient accompanist.
