The attraction at the Opera House next Friday night is a lecture with stereopticon effects byJ.Nelson Lewis, assisted by the famous Ladies' Schubert Quartette of Boston. Of the entertainment the Boston Herald says: "Few lecturers have the power to draw from their homes on so stormy an evening as last Saturday, so large and select an audience as filled Opera Hall, Malden, when Rev. J. Nelson Lewis told in his own graphic manneï of Bro. Jonathan and his exhaustless resources. The whole lecture was a grand object lesson of patriotism and the almost infinity of resource of our countrj; and the lésson was made the more itnpressive by Mr. Lewis's earnest, vigorous, clear cutand intelligent worde, abounding in thoughtful suggestions, and by the beautiful music of the Quartette in its almost matchless rendering of the old home and army songs." The entertainment is interspersed thoughout with beautiful transformation scènes. During one of these the Quartette sing "Nightingale" as the evening shadows deepea over the fall of a beautiful New England scène. The view of Washington in his tent at Valley Forge, and the "Fall of Fort Sumpter" and others are soul-inspiring and should be seen by every patriot and especially by G. A. E. men who will be able to appreciate them first.
