It was a big hall for go small a lad, but the audience gave the most attentlve hearing, and the little lad bravely ‘carried his solo through with expression and effectiveâ€" ness. Another lighter selection was the sketch by Misses Florence Gette and Anita Groulx, the sketch includâ€" ing dialogue and song. _ The girls found the big audience somewhat L%‘iss Berthe Boutin set a very high standard of musical ability, and won very sincere appreciation for her giftâ€" ed <work as a pianist. The other soloist on the piano, Miss Katz, showâ€" ed decided talent and her selection was well given and pleased all. The «Juvenile Night‘‘ Programme at the Band concert on Sunday evenâ€" ing in the Goldfields Theatre after the church services won very high compliment from the large erowd present. The theatre was filled to the doors for the, occasion and the quiet attention given throughout and the hearty appreciation shown for each and every number indicated the pleasâ€" ure given by the excellent programme. On account of the length of the proâ€" gramme, it was specially asked that no encores be insisted upon, and the audience very kindly assisted by acâ€" ceding to this request. _ There were two or three times, however, where the audience was very naturally and reasonably tempted to overâ€"tde the rule. Among these special numbers were the solos by Master W, Shewan, the violin selection by Master Jack Neilson and the first number by the Violin Quartette. As the Violin Quartette was on the programme for a second number, and as Master Jack Neilson played lead in the Quartette, and as Master W. Shewan also kindly took the place of another artist on the programme who was unable to be present, the audience had the pleasâ€" ure of hearing its particular favorites again. As a matter of fact, however, it is likely that each and every item would*have been encored under crdinâ€" ary In pianoforte music two very talâ€" ented young ladies gave selections in very gifted way.

After some discussion, it was moved by Mr. Trofford and seconded by Mr. Bissonette that in the freight race the weight to be carried be 100 lbs. for each dog. This was adopted. In previous years the amount that could be carried was limited to not more than 100 lbs. per dog, but drivers could take less if they so wished. An interesting and pleasing feature of the meeting was the donation by Mr. B. Bissonette, of a $5 gold piece to be awarded to the bestâ€"looking outâ€" fit among the entries in the Boys‘ Race. This, of course, is in addition to the usual prizes and will be given irrespective of whether the outfit wins a place or not. It was decided to have the entries for the Boys‘ dog race all made on the Wednesday ibefore the race so as to give opportunity for the arrangeâ€" ment of prizes. Mr. B.

The Timmins Citizens Band added its share of good music to the pleasâ€" ing programme, The cornet solos by Bandsman Master Carl Johns were noteworthy numbers on the list of selections. His first cornet solo was creditably given, while his second number, ‘‘The Flight of Ages,"‘ was still more pleasing and effective. There were four numbers by the Band, all well given and appreciated by musicâ€"lovers. Two marches, ‘‘Deeds of Daring,‘‘ and ‘‘Carry On,‘‘ made fitting opening and closing selections for the evening‘s programme. _ The selection, ‘*‘Oberon,‘"‘ was particularly well presented and won very general favour.

This violin quartette includes Miss Pirtessalo, Master Jack Neilson, Masâ€" ter Harold Craig and Mr. Burton Holland. Miss Dorothy Porter‘s caâ€" pable work as accompanist on the piano added to the effectiveness of these selections. Mr. Ted Emery assisted materially in the success of the vocal numbers by his effective accompaniments on the piano. (On motion of Mrs. M.
