A NOVEL fiiveit at ENTERTAINMENT the Utah School For the Deaf. pleasing divergence from the usual school entertainment was that given by the pupils of the Rah school for the deaf last- evening. The programme, consisting of pantomimes, table-Mixsongs, recitations, etc., was one of the most pleasing and unique ever given in the city. Nature seems to have partly made up the lack of the faculties of hearing and speaking in these pupils by giving tbein an instinctive gr re and symmetry of motion that is as pleasing to the eve as sweet music to the ear. The songs, indeed, accompanied by the sweet voice of Miss Maude Pratt, though A . given in signs, possessed all the rhythm and beauty of real music. The pantomimes and tableaux were of all grades, from the grave and serious to the comic; and laughable. The programme as rendered was as follows: Tableau "lVtcr, Peter, Pumpkin Kilter." 'The Little Doctor." Tableau Song -- The Kcd, White and Blue' Tableaux "The Bachelor," in thre acts.) Tableau, 'Liberty. Impersonations. Pantomime "The Hungry Chin i man.'
