Mr. Alfred A. Farland, the banjo virtuoso, who gave a performance at the Grand opera house last evening, is a marvel. He is the greatest banjo artist we have ever had the pleasure of listening to, and his playing is the very apotheosis of the . instrument. His delicacy of touch is marvelous, and the brilliancy of expression is beyond comparison.

The finest audience that has assembled in the Grand Opera House for rnany moons listened to the enrapturing music and cheered every number to the echo. The performers were encored so warmly and returned so many times as to make the program very long, but it was thoroughly enjoyed. Mrs. Trueblood's pantomine performance was fine and highly appreciated by everybody present. Owing to the fact that many Ann Arborites have been accustomed to spend tlieir summer at the Oakland hotel, of St. Clair, better known as the St. Clair Springs, they will be interested to know that on Wednesday it, together with belongings and grounds,was attached by United States Deputy Marshall, E.

Admission for ladies not members, ten cents. The Williams Glee, Banjo and Mandolín clubs which appear here next Tuesday, are among the finest of the eastern organizations. The clubs wiil be the first since Amherst, two years ago, and should receive a a large audience. The Hoosack Falls Massachusetts, Times says: "The Glee club has evidently been carefully trained, and their songs were all bnght and catchy. The Mandolín club, which was augmented by a flute and 'cello, was a favorte from their first number, and the only criticism that could be made is that they did not appear often enough. The Banjo club, composed of sixteen men, played well together, and the selection "Mardi Gras Patrol" was above the average of the music usualy rendered by such organizátions; and special mention should be made of. the medley from "Wang," by the Glee club, and the duet and chorus from the "Fencing Master," by the Glee and Mandolín clubs. One does not usually expect any very high order of musical excellence from these college clubs, but last night's concert was an exception, and shows what can be accomplished by good leadership and hard work.
