Mr. Spacey, was the vocal soloist for 'the evening, contributing twice to the programme. He has a natural bass voice of more than usual depth and power, and the selections ren- dered were such as to test the capa- bilities of a fine bass voice. Messrs. Stephens and Bond won the heartiest encore by their clever and attractive work on the saxophones. The saxophone duet was one of the big hits of the evening and the aud- ienhe showed a disposition to encore the number given in response to the recall. Messrs Stephens f and Bond demonstrated the harmony and attrac- tive 'music that may be produced by the saxophones in capable hands. The Trombone Solo, “Death of Nelson” by Bandsman \V. Tonlgin, with band accompaniment, was a 1*)leasing number rendered in talented way, and won very hearty approval.

There was special compliment given by many music lovers for the good work of.’ Bandmaster F. J. “70an and his men. The Timmins Citizens’ Band was out in strength and played partieularly well. The rendition of the overture, “Poet and Peasant,” was eSpecially good. Another favor- ite with the audience was the over- ture, “American Federation.” Other well rendered selections by the Band: included the March, “\Vashingtonl Greys” and the selection, “Nautical Fantasia.” BAND CONCERT SUNDAY 'BVBNING MUCH APPRECIATBD Some weeks ago when it was learned that Mr. Robert Smith had gone to Toronto it was thought that the move was only temporary. It is understood now, however, that Mr. Smith has taken a position in the Toronto dis- trict and 'will take up permanent resi- dent there. There will .be very gener- al regret at the removal of this tal- ented vocalist from the Porowpine Camp. In the musical ciroles of Timmins and district in particula:1 will 'he ‘be missed.
