There was another large audience at the seventeenth special concert on Saturday evening, when Mdllo Alive Verlet, the French Prima Donna, made her second appearance at these concerts. Mdlle. Verlet, on her first appearance at Llandudno, a few weeks ago, created an excellent impression, which was more than maintained upon the present occasion. Her voice is of a pure soprano quality, bright and flexible, AND while being able to sustain long swelling notes at any pitch of the COMPASS, her trills are magnifi- cently done. The richness of her voice was well displayed in "The Jewel Song" from "Faust," which she sang with great effect, and in response to an encore she rendered Meyerbeer's aria, The Shadow Song." After the interval Mdlle. Verlet gave a brill- iant rendering of a "Spanish Bolero," and responded to a determined recall with a pretty little ballad entitled "Come into the sun." After this she was again recalled, but with a kiss of the hand she gracefully de- clined to respond. Mr Henry Turnpenny, always a welcome favourite at Llandudno, was in fine voice on Saturday evening when he opened a week's engagement. He selected as his opening song Lohengrin's "Farewell" (Wagner), which afforded him ample opportunity for displaying his rich t-enor voice, and of which he took full advantage. AFT-ar a most effec- tive rendering Mr Turnpeny responded to a well-earned encore with "I heaT you calling." In the seoond part of the concert he was equally successful with Sullivan's pretty com- position "Once Again," responding to an ,encore with "Angels, Guard Thee" (Godard). Mr Turnpenney WAS the vocalist for the re- mainder of tbe week, and his songs included Adam's "Star of Bethiehem," Mendelssohn's "Be thou faithful;" Gounod's recit. and aria,, "Lend me your aid;" Forster's "If love were all;" Sullivan's popular song, "The Sailor's Grave;" A new song by Ed. German," "The English Rose;" and the ever green English ballad, "Come into the garden, Maud," etc. 0 J On Saturday evening Madame Lilian Wright (Mrs. Tipping) played, with the orchestra, Max Bruch's Adagio Finale from Concerto IN G minor, which gained general appreciation. it it • At Monday's concert Miss Alice M. M. Jones, pianist of considerable ability, played with the orchestra two movements from Rachmaninoff's Concerto. This item was given for the first time at Llandudno, and the pianist was rewarded with a vociferous encore. » » » On Tuesday evening, Mr Arthur Nichols gave his favourite Cor Anglaise solo, "An Evening in the Mountains;" and on Wednesday evening Messrs Halstead and Hat- ton contributed a piccolo duet eiftitled "Nightingale and Blackbird." ♦ The orchestra has been at its best this week, and Mr Arthur W. Payne, the genial conductor, has received congratula- tions from many expert musicians who at- tended the concerts. Mr Payne's Andante in F for strings, which he wrote a little while ago, is becoming quite a favourite item. It was given at the popular concert on Mon- day evening, when Mr Harry Freeman played the violin solo. The' audi-ence demonstrated their appreciation by demanding a repetition. Among the orchestral works given during the week were Wagner's Overture to "liienai;" Sul- livan's Selection, "Patience;" Herald's Over- ture "Zam it;" Sa" t-Smti's Fantasia "Samson ot Delilah;" Wagner's Overture, "Die Meister- singer;" Dvorak's Largo and Allegro Con Fuo from "The New World Symphony;" Rossini's Overture, "William Tell;" Mendelssohn's "Bees' Wedding;" Tsehaikowsky's Overture, "1812;" Liszt's "Hungarian Rhapsody;" Sullivan's Selec- tion, "The Pirates of Penzance;" Myddleton's Selection of Irish Airs, "The Shamrock;" Schu- bert's Overture, "Rosamunde;" Sullivan's Selec- tion from "lolanthe;" Wagner's Fantasia, "Lohengrin," etc. » < MADAME EDNA THORNTON. At the eighteenth special concert on Saturday evening Mudaine Edna Thornton and Mr Chas. Tree will be the vocalists. Both artistes are es- tablished favourites at these concerts, and have previously appeared at Llandudno this season. Madame Thornton will be one of the principal vocalists at the National Eisteddfod of Wales at Colwyn Bay this month. • • MR MARTIN HARVEY )AT THE GRAND THEATRE. Mr Martin Harvey and his talented company have been attracting crowded audiences to the Grand Theatre during the first three nights of this week. Mr Harvey, unlike many other great actors, has devoted so much of his time to the Provincial centres, and has always staged so large a selection from his repertoire, that he has de- served well of the play-going public. And the public have not been loth to recognise that his great earnestness of purpose, the high tone of his plays, and the great capabilities of his com- pany, are as forceful as the charm and magnet- ism of his own personality, which has made his performanfee3 so conspicuous. No "star" has ever been better supported, and no man has worked harder to gain the affection of the pub- lic. The spacious theatre was crowded to its ut- most capacity on Monday evening, when Mr Harvey appeared in his original part of "Reresby the Rat" in John Rutherford's popular play "The Breed of the Trcshams." He was ably supported by Miss N. do Silva as Batty. On Tuesday and Wednesday Mr Harvey appeared in his master- piece "The Only Way," which is a dramatised version bv Freeman Wills, of Charles Dickens' storv "A tale of two cities." Mr Harvey was at his best in both plays; and he was supported by his full London company, including Mr Chas. Glenney, Mr Fred. Wright, senr., Mr Percy Foster, Mr Philip Hewland, Mr Cowley Wright, Mr Edward Combeimere, Mr B. A. Pittar, Mr Denholm Muir, Miss Brenda Gibson, Miss Alice Chapin, Miss Bessie Elder, Miss Sybil Walsh, Miss Ethel Patrick, Mrs Fred. Wrights, and Miss N. de Silvo. For the last three nights of this week the popular musical play "The King of Cadonia" is the attraction. « THE PRINCE'S THEATRE. Jury's Imperial Animated Pictures continue to attract, large audiences at the Prince's Theatre. The pictures are now changed twice weekly. A most interesting series is exhibited this week, and include dramatic and humorons incidents, chief among which may be mentioned a most pathetic incident, entitled "Mother's Heart," "Oll Stevedore," and "Child of the squadron," arc also two pictures which appeal to the dra- matic element. The humorous iteme include "Double Bass," "Rigfat House," "Baby HAS swallowed a 3d piece," etc.; and an interesting picture of "Territorials in oamp" is also exhib ted. THE HAPPY VALLEY MINSTRELS. Each afternoon this week Mr W. J. Churchill's famous minstrel* have been entertaining ] :.¡,rcfl audiences in the Happy Valley. The songs and amusing patter of tihe merry men aire much 1IIp- preciated by the thousands of people who daily flock to the Valley. On Wednesday evening- A complimentary "benefit" was given to the mem. bers of the troape. The minstrels will con- tirruo to perform up to the end of tl6 month. THE BUSY BEES. i This ie the last week at Llandudno for them popular entertainers, who have been perform- • ing at the Cosy Comer twice daily throughout &e aecsoxi. On.

BEDDGELERT. THE HARVEST. Owing to the wet weather a great deal of hay is still down on the tieids of Nant Gwynant, Nant Colwyn, near Rhyd- ddu, and in the-upland farms of the districts; and it is in a very bad condition. The corn harvest has not yet commeneejd around the Snowdonia district, and the farmers generally are in great anxiety about the elements. VISITORS. In spite of the unfavourable weather the lodging-houses of the neighbourhood arc now full of visitors. A great many are gaged in fishing, and good sport has been ob- tained. ABERGLASLYN MINERAL SPRING. It is understood that Mr J. A. A. Williams, of Aberglaslvn Hall, proposes to open the Abcr- glasiyn Mineral Spring, or the waters of the "Lefel Goch" (The Red Level), which stands by the side of the road on the Beddgelert side of the fa.mous Aberglaslyn Pass. The waters are generally recommended by doctors, and the old people of the parish who use it freely gave every praise to its effects. Herewith is the analysis and remarks of Dr. Lowe on the waters:—"The amount of mangan- ese is unusual, and should make the water espe- cially valuable. The water is of great organic purit-4. It should be of value to persons suffer- ing from a deficiency of iron in the system, for the iron is a natural constituent of the animal body, and it forms an important constituent of the red colouring matter of the blood, it may therefore be regarded as a food as well as a medi- cine."

ITEEEI vi 1 TG no reply he evidently took it for granted that the inmates were not at home. He then peered through the windows and returned to the road to his partner. After an earnest conversation, number two trainp -came towards the house and went ihmngh the same performance with the dooa- and windows. He then went to another I Moor, which was slighti.y ajar. He, however, AGAIIN went round the house, a-nd after care- fully examining all the windows returned to numbsr one. After a short consultation he re- turned to the open door and was just entering wheal the lady of the house gtot excited, and I cried out, "What do you want'?" Her husband thereupon ran down aad caught hold OF tiMj man and gave him a good lecture. The excuse given was that ho WAS looking for "old boots- OONCER.T.
