A Dramatics--On Wednesday evening, th 18th, the Angus Dramatic Co. gave what proved to _be one of the most successful entertainments they have ever produced.. Theopening selection by the local orchestra, consisting of Mr. and Mrs C. K. Clark, Jas. Smith, R. Redfern and Jonas Bush, struck the key _note of a very enjoyable evening. The curtain then rose on the imposing gure of W. A. Peter as the knight of the road, or highwayman of-50 years ago, which ne song was rendered with intense dramatic eect. This was followed by the effective historical recitation, Mary Queen of Scots" by John Ottaway, which it is needless to say was given with great power and was very highly a preciated by the audience. ne song The Wyevale correspondent of the Pene- tang Heraldsays: On Sunday last a party of young men from thevicinity of Wyebridge went to the beach on a sand-cherry excur- sion and private spree. On returnin in the afternoon they stopped at a neig boring pump to get `a drink when suddenly they` commenced hustling each other out of the wagon and a general row ensued resulting in an immense amount of swearing and some bloody "noses, and the - fragments of 2 or 3 shirts were left to mark the spot. Changes were made to be respectable enough to go home.- A resident near the beach was on a hunting excursion and shot a large crane. We hope the day 18 not far "distant: when such disreputable conduct will be a thing of the past. Which is the disreputable con- duct, the crane shooting or the bloody nose business ? H_-l-3_arrie is now wanting in everything that oes to make a live town, and were it not or the` business drawn there from being the county town it would disappear altogether as a town and become a quiet resting place of a few hundred worn out politicians and others who liyeon the fat of the land with- out having to earn their bread by the sweat of their brow.

Y., at 1.30 p. m., with, a pair of trunks and a cork vest. The vest was made like a life preserver, the pieces of `cork being sewed in canvas and wrapped around his chest, being two pieces in front and three on the back. After entering the water, he swam out to the centre of the river and looked down the middle current. He was rapidly carried by the eddies to the Canadian shore. In a few seconds he was in a swift drift and was quickly carried to the x-st high breaker which be safely rode. He was dashed through the rapids in just three minutes, and swam out of thewhirlpool almost ex- hausted. It was here that Scott of Lewis- ton lost his life last Thursday. lxendall says. after reaching the spot where Webb lost his life, the water seemed to go from under -him, and a huge wave seemed to strike him on the top of his head and shoulders, which knocked him unconscious for a few minutes, and he found his swim- ming abilities of no use to him, and he never expected to come out alive. When entering the maelstrom of the whirlpool, he was so benumbed. that he could not usea limb, and did not know what he was doing. -The current took him into the main eddy, and when reaching it, sucked him down like a ash. He threw up his hands never expecting to see day- light again. He was under water fully 15 seconds when he was shot to the "sur- face by an under current fully 50 feet from the centre. On reaching the top of the_water he had partly regained conscious- ness, and knew there was no time tospare before he would be dashed down the low- er rapids. He made an attempt to swim out which he accomplished. It took his assistants fully half an hour to revive him with stimulants and rubbing.

' I `think loan say. that this feeling no _longeg.f.ex1sts, and (Ibe 'eire)- simply because the persons with whom it originated` have become en- lightened and `instructed. on the subiect.~ Any person who can read the signs- of the. times must perceive that the stage is slowly but surely assuming its proper character: that of a greatteacher of the . people. We have in London a building in which one of the greatest teachers . of `our time holds mighty audiences spellbound and mighty thousands leave its doors, feeling better, nobler and I will go so far as to say holier, for having been within them. That build- ing is the London Lyceum, and that teacher is our great, noble, high-minded actor-gentle- man, Henry Irving. It ispleasant to think "that in leaving this club I am creating no awkward gap in its ranks. We _have among us to-night a gentleman who has proved him- self not only an accomplished vocalist but a sound comedian. Ladies and gentlemen, I feel sure that you will continue that appreci- ation of talent so conspicuous in the past, and that Mr. Pool s- popularity is already assured. And now I am going to tell you something which, in all probability you know already. You are aware that every dramatic club has its moving spirit, and in case any of you should have hit upon the wrong person with regard to this club I am going to do myself the pleasure of setting this question at rest. Ladies and gentleman, not a wig has been worn, scarcely a costume has been used, nay, the very club itself owes its existence to the genius sad untiring energy of the wife of our talented manager. You all know what Mrs. Peter can do on the stage, but did you know the marvellous amount of work she has bestowed upon this club behind the scenes, you would wonder that one individual could accomplish so much. Among the sunniest recollections of my sojourn in Canada none will be more pleasant to dwell upon than those occasions when I have had the pleasure and the privi- lege of acting here with Mrs. W. A. Peter and with an under the management of her accomplished and talented husband. I have little more to add. My fellow artists (if I may call you so) I thank you heartily and sincerely for your kindness. and sympathy to the great cause of the pure amusement of the people and to myself, and ladies and gehtlemen, with many, many thanks for all your kindness and hospitality. I wish you all long life and happiness and a heartfelt and grateful farewell.
