UNITY HALL FILLED
THE ENTERTAINMENT GIVEN LAST NIGHT BY THE FIFTH DIVISION A.O.H.
City Hall was well filled last evening with an appreciative audience who enjoyed with great satisfaction the excellent entertainment program given under the auspices of the Fifth division, A.O.H.. The majority of the audience was made up of Irish people, who availed themselves of this opportunity to bring the feast day of their patron saint to a close after having observed the other portion of the day in a fitting manner.
The Program opened with an exhibition of the projectorscope. The views were thrown on a sheet arranged on the spacious stage of the hall and there the the audience saw with wonder and amazement objects in the scene move in life-like manner. The first scene was one from Bowling Green, New York City, one of the hustle-bustle centers of the great metropolis. Horse cars and cable cars moved along; horses drawing trucks laden with merchandise turned out of the car track at the signal of the cable car gong.
Other views were a bathing scene at Rockaway Beach, the Empire state express, which thundered along at the rate of a mile a minute. The audience then enjoyed several stereopticon views of illustrated songs, "pictures from the other side of life," scenes in Ireland and familiar faces in Waterbury. Among the latter were those of C.F. Chapin, editor of the Waterbury "American," Charles R. Bannon, Stephen W. Wilby, principal of the High school, and group pictures of the officers of Companies A and G, Second regiment.
One of the most interesting scenes presented was the occasion when General McLeer was tendered a banquet by his brother after his promotion to the rank of General.
The first part of the program was concluded by a vocal solo rendered by Mr. Murphy. The second part consisted of views by the projectorscope.
