The soloist and end* were ail that could be desired in an amateur performance, and the chorus showed tho results of weeks of training by going through the entire program without a fault. With wall over, a thousand persons In the audience, tho show was a sliceess from every standpoint, and a tribute to. the work of the Pawtucketvillo section.When it was announced that tho committee in charge were to use Paw-luckctville talent exclusively, a great number of local skeptics said It could not be clone. All who attendetl last night, however, say It was done in a very capable manner, and without a single “ringer*' from tho southern sido of the bridges.In the course of tho long program it developed thsi two exceptionally clever “finds’' had been brought out in the production. Aliss Nora Copley, aa an end, ami M.a*t»r John Carney, a boy with a robust tenor, ore among thu Cleverest performers presented in ihls city In a number of years- Other singers shared Llie honors, particularly Mibs Mary McPartland, soprano and leader of St. Columba’s church choir, who gave a splendid rendition of cjub of tho program's best, numbers, Mias Anna Place, Mrs. Thomas Scanlon, Mr. Fred Oummmtfa, Mr. John Stapleton and Mr. Janies Gorman were also splendidly received, anc^ merited manyencores.The program follows: Opening chorus, entire company; end song, “Pullman Porter Blues,'' John (Jack) Carroll; solo. “Out of the Shadows,” MIsdAnna Place; end song, “While Miami Dreams” Richard Grifttn; solo. “Little Town in Quid County Down,” Miss Mary McPartlnnd: end song, “Gin-Gin-GInny Shore.*' John Stapleton; solo. “Little Crumbs of „ Happiness ” Master John Carney; end song, “Carolina Rolling Stone, Miss Grace Han-naiin; goio, 1*11 Forgel ..You,” FredCummings; end song.

Tobin, with Mr. Andrew Molloy as interlocutor: Mr. Tobin, who also acted as accompanist, accomplished a somewhat remarkable feat, for lost night's show was the first in mnny years in which one man succeeded in acting both ns director and accompanist. It Ir, an extraordinarily hard task, and Mj-. Tobin not only accomplished it, but did so with seemingly little effort.Following tho show, dancing was enjoyed by tlie young people until ml cl night, ThroughiniL the eveninghcm.th.1 tables about the hall did a thrivjng business. At tho right of I ho entrance was tho tonic table, over which Miss Delia Copley presided throughout tho evening.

ON oil, 20 Sixth avenue.The lion's share of credit for the affair should go to the lTnlyName society's chaplain. Rev, John G. Hogan, who worked harder, perhaps, than anyone else for the event's success.
