of " Good Night,” while six of the troubadours, dressed in night-gowns and carrying lighted candles, produced a most realistic effect. Mr. Sydney Manneririg displayed his tenor voice to great advantage in several firstrate items, and was accorded a hearty reception. Mr. Percival Mackenzie was in great request during the evening, proving an entertainment in himself. Not only was he able to furnish the audience with a taste of his singing and banjo-p’aying abilities, but the lightning manner in which he sketched caricatures and also drew a coloured seascape in sixty seconds and then transposed it into a landscape revealed his talent in still another direction. Messrs. Mannering, Griffiths, Cunningham and Waltham’s excel'ently trained voices were heard in several quartets, the humorous ones meeting with most favour; The choruses rendered by the company were of a highly enjoyable order, and all music-lovers should make it a point not to miss seeing “The Scarlet Troubadours.”
