Feilding Amateur Entertainment

The concert given last night by the Feilding Amateurs was only moderately atended, the wretched weather no doubt accounting for the small audience. The first item was a well rendered piece by the orchestra 'La debutante,' followed by Mr ii, Worsfola singing the ' Silver Rhine,' Mr H. Taylor next contnbuted a stump speech. Miss Kitchen gave very pleasingly • Love tide,' Messrs Haybittle and Keen's comic sketch " You ought to know " took well and they had. to reply which they did by giving the last verse. Miss Bellye sang " Scarlet poppies " in her usual excellent manner. " Gone for ever more," a comic song by Mr Bobson took the audience's fancy and he was enthusiastically recalled. Mr Kitchen gave a violin solo, " Last rose of Summer." Mr Steveuß gave the " Friar of orders grey." This is this gentleman's first appearance and he v no doubt one of the best Amateur singers about here. An encore was demanded, Mr Elkington sang a comic song, and had to give an encore. The Orchestra then played ' Merry bells.' The winning jockey of the St. Andrews Handicap was here presented with a silver mounted whip by Mr B. F. Haybittle on behalf of the management. Mr Williamson sang •' Where are those boys " nicely, and Miss Kitchen followed with a song. The next item was "Ta-ra-ra-boom-deay" by the company, with suitable accompaniment, and had to be repeated. Mr Elton gaye a series of acrobatic feats, completely as» tonishing his audience. The Orchestra contributed the " Ada " schottiscbe, and the performance was wound up with the farce "Irish Justice," which created a good deal of amusement. The Amateurs hold a promenade concert and dance this evening in the Assembly Booms.
