You paid as little and he got as

Here Is what the Banner ot Nornstown,
N. J. says of the Lafayctto Glee Club
which will appear at the Opera Houso on
the 25th. ;
"An appreciative audience greeted the
Lafayette College Glee and Banjo Clubs on
Tuesday cvcnl.'g, embracing among others
a bevy of young ladles from Miss Ban's
Seminary. While tho programme as
whole was well rendered, tho audience was
ot courso in fullest sympathy with the
parts rendered by the banjo and glee clubs,
and In every instance they wero compelled
to respond to hearty eDCores. Their re.
sponses were always new, and Invariably
bright, and the programme therforc gave
but a part ot tho actual performance. The
piano solo, the mandolin and guitar duet,
and the violin music, both duct and solo,
reflected tho greatest credit upon the
young artists, all of whom show a great
deal of study and a genuine love of music,
The appearance ot two Chlnamcu In tho
audience, who suddenly vamoosed at tho
conclusion of the "Chinese Song," created
some fun that appeared to have been "put
up" by some one.
