J. 0. Crisp was the chairman of the evening, and very ably carried out the duties resting upon him. The chairman confessed that he was not an Orangeman, neither was he an Irish. man. However, he approved of the Orange principles. A good Orangeman would be a good Christian and a good citizen. He would be loyal to his} earthly and heavenly sovereign.

Dealing with the principles of the | Orange order, the speaker took oc- casion to refer to the recent reported statement of Rev. Mr, Vaughan, at Montreal, that the protestant re- ligion, was a "soulless religion." Me would say that the answer to. this, so far as the Portsmouth Orangemey were concerned, was that if the Orange men were simply Orangemen on the 12th of July, then the statement was true. The Orange order had in it Christian principles. The Bible was not looked upon as a sealed book. The order stood for all that was good, the teaching of the children how. to®live to be good citizens, so 'that they might becdme empire build- ers, If this was caried out, then it could not be said that the protestant re- ligion was a "soulless religion." We should value all these advantages. The speaker took strong objection to the remark of Rev. Mr. Vaughan, and de- clared that the protestant religion nad a soul. Rev. Mr. Tennant expressed his plea: sure at being present for such an in- teresting ceremony, and extended his congratulations to the Portsmouth Orangemen. He delivered a timely dress.

A tall slip of a girl, with a sweet face, framed ina mass of dusky hair, | Miss Kathleen Parlow comes on the stage with a touch of modesty which is a further ornament of grace, but | withal the salm fearlessness of a child iwho has never been repulsed, aod { ahve leaves it, amid thunders of ap- plause, with a childlike little bow of pleasure at having pleased. But be iiween her coming and her going ! there. is naught of the child, save the fearless serenity which runs through all her wonderful work. The fnost wo- ticeable feature of Miss Parlow's play- | ing is its singing quality. Now her lviolin was a lyric soprano, n the i notes of a contralto thr through Grant hall, again the sweet, true motes were the lullaby a mother | might sing to her babe. But ever and always it was human. : She opened the programme with Tartini's, "The Devil's Thrill," and it {was a wonderful performance with a breadth of phrasing and a conception of the music's possibilities that might be totally umlooked for in one so young. But as has been said above, there is nothing youthful about this i Canadian virtuoso except her age. | W. E. Seilbach, the tenor whose 'name was on the programme, was réevented by illness from coming to 'Kingston, so H. XN. McRostie, presi- dent of the Queen's Musical Club, an- notnced that the violinist would play a number of Russian dances instead. Perhaps the greatest tribute to Miss Parlow is this, that in 'spite of the 'weight of a programme solely instru- mental, and chiefly. made up of the nerve-straining music of the violin, the audience would gladly have heard more, and yet more. Wildly she was called back again and again. She was harping them up to the doors of hea- ven, she was sweeping them down to the depths beneath, she was stirmng "passionate emotions, she was soothing fears, all with her marvellous humfin notes, and her hearers would fain have had her continue lift them from themselves. - | It is unnecessary to speak of Miss Parlow's technique, it must be there, but it never shows, there is just the violin and the how in the hands of a air], and a voice, singing, seemingly, for its own pleasure or relief and that is all. In her high notes and her melody, Miss Parlow reminds of Mar- chesi, who sings because she loves to and none could doubt that the young zirl who stood before them playéds be- cause she loved to. The concerto in G. minor was her heaviest number and the one, possibly, which taxed most { her powers ob interpretation but it is probable that it was the ethoven minuet, with its charming lilt, that caught the fancy and lingered in 'he ear. to i The pianist, Irwin Evesth Has- | sell was not only an accompanist of { the utmost merit, always making his | instrurgent subservient to the strinas, wit also, combining at times, with (it, in such a depth of treatment, that {the effect was orchestral and - deenly impressive. In his solo nunvers Mr. | Hassell played with an ezquisite clear- ness and tunefulness and he was given a reception that showed genuine ap- | mreciation of his music. Miss Parlow's last number, one of Sarasate's Span- | ish dances, was a charming close to her performance, and as a finale, Mr Hassell came on to play "God Save the King," the students (who are to i be heartily thanked for brinzing Miss Parlow here) singing with lusty fer , vour. I The audience represented the musical Fine Acts at Orpheum. | world of Kingston. 1 | | One double act at the Oipheum { theatre for the remaining days of this week may easily be descril as one {of the best which this or any other {house has ever shown here.

Daley and King, the mirth specialists and foremost soft shoe dancers, were a particularly pleasing team and their work was well recerv- ed.

The members of L.OL;, No. 9, met at their hall, at Cushendall, on the Ider {evening of Dec. 5th; where the annual business meeting of the election of of- ficers took place.

Twenty-five Years Ago Ice Was Formed as Early as Dec. 1st-- Marine Briefs of iilerest. Now that the cold snap has sel in, it has caused a good deal of talk about the freezing over of the harbor. Capt. Malone, of the steamer Prince Rupert, stated, to-day, that he could remember" that (wenty-five years ago the harbor was frozen over on Decem- ber lst. The captain remembers an- other occasion, in the early days, when he drove over on the ice from Garden in the .afternoon, with grain, in a boat. For many years, Capt. Malone was engaged in the timber trade for the Calvin company, and for about half a century has been engaged in marine work. He is one of the best known captains on the lake. Capt. Malone has bought some property in Barriefield, and will move down from Deseronto in a short time. -- Marine Paragraphs, Steam, rising in clouds off the Jake, this morning, blocked the island from view. It will be hard for wny stray boats that happen to be out on the water to get along. Work was temporarily abandoned on the government quarantine boat, this morning, on account of the condition of the atmosphere, the weather being too cold to permit the men working. The boat is all iron and steel and extremely cold to the touch. * EXTENSION OF STREETS. Brock, Mack and Victoria Should be Extended. This year's board of works will not take any action on the recommends- tion 'of the city engineer with refer. ence to expropristing the land be- tween the Allan property and Union street, in order to extend Victoria street through do I'nion and make 5 connection to the water with Beverly street, It is very important that Vie toria street should be extended, aa there is a great deal of building in that locality, and property values are increasing. The matter will come before the new board of works in Janvary. The city emgineer says that now is the time to secure the necessary pro- erty for other street extension, Earl, rock and Mack streets should be ex- tended to tae city limits, and reports concerning them will likely be present- ed to the board early in the new yeur. The people will be asked to vote at the January elections on the issue of debentures for the extension of Barrie street from Quebec to Pie, which ex- tension is very much needed for the accommodation of the people of Frontenac ward. v AT THE POLICE COURT.

What Happens at Stations When an Alarm Rings. It is a very interesting thitg to walk into the firemen's quarters just after the men have been called on a run. The men spend a good share of their spare time in playing a game called Parchesi, and they are past masters at it too. Probably about the time the gong rings they are engaged in this most interesting game content edly smoking their pipes in peace and happiness, when, lo! at the first peal 41 the bell they are transformed from a band of laughing, careless fellows in to an organized force of fire-fighters.
