MISCELLANEOUS ENTERTAINMENT.
There was a large attendance at the Druids' Hall last night, when a raicsellaneous entertainment was given in aid of the Temperance Social Club. The first part of the programme consisted of a concert, the members of the Citizens' Band playing the overtures for each part, and a number of selections outside the hall, their music proving a great attraction. Songs were contributed by Mrs W, Snodgrass, Misses fl. Stallard and W. Haase, and Messrs T. Condell, B. Tasker, A. Aydon, junior, Stobans, and Hindley (comic). Messrs Aydon (senior), and Hindley gave bone and tambourine performances. The concert was very enjoyable, several of the vocalists being re-called* In the second part, the farce "My Wife's Second Floor" was produced. The characters were impersonated as follows:— Captain Topheavy, R.N., Mr R. Watson; Mrs Topheavy, Miss L. Watson; Mr Felix Toddle, an artist. Mr W. J. S. Smith; Fanny May love, Mrs R. Watson ; Jacob, the manservant (who was as. close and dumb as an oyster), Mr A. Karsten; Mrs Downey, Miss F. Gledhill: and Tim, a porter, Mr Clark. The farce was well played, and from the start to the finish kept tho audience in a state of laughter. The management is to be congratulated on the very creditable performance, which reflected credit on all tnking part therein.
