Cercle Francais Meeting.

The Cercle Francais gave their annual vaudeville performance, marking the close of the year, at the Colonial Club last evening. The programme was long and all the pieces were well given.

The Banjo Club opened the performance with three of their most popular selections, "Up the Street," "Rastus on Parade," and "The White Company." The Bohemian Orchestra followed with several lively pieces and two solos were sung by G. R. Osborne 1900. A. F. Riggs '98 and M. de Diaz '98 gave a very interesting exhibition of fencing, which was enthusiastically applauded. A clever monologue in French by H. W. Cram '97 gave the reciter a chance to shoo his skill in acting. R. de K. Gilder '99 followed with a French song which was very successfully sung to the accompaniment of a guitar. Several comic selections by J. C. McCall '99 were very well received and a short monologue by E. L. Dudley 1900 in imitation of Coquelin was also amusing. The hit of the evening was R. Logan '97 in the character of M. Brunetiere. The performance closed with more singing and music by the two clubs.
