CONCERT AT NEWBRIDGE BARRACKS . - By kind permission of Lieut Col J A Stewart M'Kenzie , a very interesting concert was given on Tuesday night last , by the 9th Laucers in the Garrison Recreation Room . The audience was large and fashionable , in cluding & number of visitors staying in barracks for Punchestown . Captain Colvin who is always to the fore when it is a question of amusement for his friends , had the manage ment or rather to use a racing phrase " acted as starter , " and notwithstanding that the pro gramme contained nineteen items as well as a couple of impromptu songs from the guests corner of the house , he acquitted himself of the task in a very efficient manner leaving no performer room to complain of a false start . After an overture from the band under the able conductorship of Sergt Murdock Corpl Wright . gave the comic , " Bunka Doodle " which appeared to take well . Private Pullen's rendering of the song ( sentimental ) " The Song That Reached My Heart " was loudly , encored Trumpeter Powers , in coster , attire gave " E Talks Like a Picture Book " in capital style . The banjo march " Black Boss " was well played by Bombardier Sharpe R H A , who was skilfully accompanied on the piano by Bands man Farmer , Bandsman Winter , who during the season of concerts was so well known on the local stage , was most amusing in his comic , in character , " Angeis have called Him Home . " Bombardier Wright's rentering of " True , True Till Death " was lolly ap plauded . The most striking feature of the entertainment was the concert polka , " L ' Alloutte des Champs " as a picoclo solo by Sgt Everett , 9th Lancers , whose fingering in the difficult variations was characteristic of a brilliancy which is seldom to be heard at concerts of and this kind , it is needless to remark he well deserved the applause which thundered through the hall . The comic " Oh what a night it must have been , " sung by Corporal Knight , brought the first part to a close . During the interval the band discoursed a charming se lection of music , adding much to the enjoy ment of the visitors , who listened with a genuine earnestness , which must have been gratifying to those interested in the getting up of the performance . Sergeant Walker opened the second part with the Tommy , " by Rudyard Kipling , and was well received . Mr FH Althusen's banjo solo , " The Darky's Dream , " won hearty ap preciation . Captain Bryan , 10th Hussars , kept the audience in one continuous uproar with his Irish comic , " She is gone to America . " In response to the repeated cheers and shouts of encore , he gave " Shulin Hickey's bally looby horee , " and so perfect was bss Irish brogue , which , of course , came quite natural to him , that both his songs were heard to ad vantage . song Mr Taggart , 15th Huzzars , was similarly received " In Sally answered yes , " encored he gave " To be there , " winning loud applause . The appearance on the stage of Lord C Ben tinck was the signal of much enthusiasm amongst the audience in the body of the hall , his serio - comic " Trowl , Trowl , " taking well . Mr Von Shroeder , with his accustomed skill sang " Tommy Atkins , " admirably . Sergeant Hides , who like a true artiste , constantly pro gesses in his singing , sang the ballad " Whisper and Isball bear , " winning hearty appreciation . Mr Wellesby , RH A , gave the comic " The Driver , " in first - rate style , and in response to the repeated cries of encore , gave " Where did you get that bat , " getting much applause . Bombardier Sharpe , R H A , sung the rigger song " Blue haired boy , " with banjo accom niment , and was favourably received . The coster song " ' E don't know where ' e are , " was given by Trumpeter Powers in his nsusl style . the rendering of God Save the Queen by the band and the entire assembly brought the con cert to a most succe - sful close . Last week Major - General Lord RD Kerr , C B , made his annual inspection of the 9th Lancers , at Newbridge . Having inspected the stables , barracks , books , etc , in the early part of the day the whole regiment , mustering 600 , paraded in the afternoon in review order . The march pest in troops in slow and quick time was witnessed by a fairly large crowd . Having gone through the usual parade move ments followed by sword and lance exercises the inspection was completed , Lord Kerr complementing Colonel M'Kenzie on the high efficiency of his command , and the satisfactory manner in which he found everything . It is said the 9th Lancers leave Newbridge the latter end of June for Aldershot . The reason of their being away before the 3rd Hus - ars on foreign service is believed to be on account of the regiment being weakened if left at home by a number of men completing their seven vears , and who on the expiration of that period abroad can remain a certain time longer and keep up the strength of the corps . |
