Special ) The Advance. : Mr. Birrell Bell, the popular violin instructor, is to be congratulated on the suecess of the musical recital held on the evening of the 28th ultimo in the new Maple Leaf theatre. _A large _ and _ appreciative _ audience were present and for two hours listened with delight to eclassical numâ€" bers by the youthful orchestra and individual members . of the troupe. Any teacher who can bring an orchesâ€" tra consisting largely of chlldren to such a state of perfection must certainly be endowed with unusual ability as a leader and musician. The Following selections by orchestra and stringed quartette were rendered with a skill that brought forth exclamaâ€" tions of wonder and, continued apâ€" plause from the interested audience : March “Flag Day"‘;â€"‘‘*Rose B‘u(ls"': March, *‘*Patriot‘; * Broken Melody‘ and Hope Eternal."" The musical critiecs were favourably impressed by the tone quality, bowing style and musical conception displayed by the juvenile artists. One of the first was a violin solo by Master Sam Katz in which the young musician showed unâ€" usual skill. The town of Golden City appeared on the map when its repreâ€" sentatives, Miss Frances and Mary King, captivated the audience with their Irish and Dutch dances in cosâ€" tume. Such grace. and beauty. of movement could not hbe exeelled. ‘*Berceuse de Jocelyn,"" a violin solq by Miss Minerva Levinson, wias parâ€" ticularly well rendered, the young lady showing â€" exceptional _ musical ability. **The Broken Melody,"‘ a string quartette selection ‘by Mr. and Mrs. Birrell Bell, Masters David Payne and Willie Shub, was a numâ€" ber that appealed very strongly to the audience, the â€" wellâ€"merited apâ€" plause being responded to by an enâ€" core.â€" Mr. Bell, if his solo, * Mazurâ€" Pleasing Event by Youthful Talent.

A very pretty birthday party was held on Friday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Huxley, First avenue, in honour of their eldest daughter, Joan, who upon that date had reached the fifteenth mile post in the pathway of life. About forty schoolmates and friends assembled early in the evening and for several hours oniove(l themselves in playing games, singing and dancing. After a delicious lmu ‘h, the vouthful guests departed carrying w 1tth0m the most pleasant memories of the kindness and h(h])ltdllt\' of ~_the host and hostess. Mr. (George C.

"This fish is unquestionably the largest hook bill, I have ever seen," saic Mr. NKidder, "#fnd the same Now, Mr. Kidder is a pretty good fisherman, but he says that the exâ€" perience he had while fishing in Cains River, New Brunswick is absolutely unique, and that as far as he knows he was successful in hooking what is probably a record salmon with a trout rod and fly. E. Kidder of Kalamazoo, Miâ€" e chigan arrived in Montreal over Canadian Pacific Railway lines, recently with the best "fish" story of the year. It was a pretty good story, and we had to believe him, especially when he showed us a fortv- pound salmon packed away in ice in the observation car. * [ : Williams A Record Fish and Story Sheriff J.

This was so spectacular and so fast and furious, accompanied by rush after rush of 150 to 200 feet, that we had no time to take a picture of it. ‘*My canoe man and myself were busy every second of the time from twenty minutes past four until after dark. In fact up to the last few minutes of the fight I stood with ont foot in the bow of the canoe constantâ€" ly, when I was not in the canoe and chasing the fish back and forth across the stream. "This fish was fortyâ€"five and threeâ€" fourths inches long measured in a straightline. If measured around the contour of the body it would proâ€" bably show two or three inches longer than this.

The rod weighed only four and sevenâ€" eighths ounces, and the ordinary trout leader, with a three pound breaking strength was not muck heavier than is common® used for a small trout fiy." ‘"‘However, no matter how you look at it, he was big enough to suit me, and the act that it was a ‘hook bill‘ and ‘leaping fish‘ instead of a female or ‘sulker‘ gave me that much more satisfaction. Then, too, it was taken with a No. i2 fly, which taken after he haa been fighting the wires of the live box for gve or six days, in which he undoubtedly lost a great deal of weight. Perhaps if he had been measured when first taken from the water he would have been at least two inches more. _â€" _ During the past week there have" been several wery interesting political meetings in the district, the interest not being confined to any one side. The meeting in the interests of Mr. McGuire at Ansonville is reported as a regular humdinger. Monday evenâ€" ing there was a big rally here at the New Empire theatre in the interests of _ the_ Iiberalâ€"Labour _ candidate. Other lively meetings were addressed at other points in the riding by Mr. MclGinuire and other speakers in his behalt. ~â€"On behalf of Mr. Kenning there were equally good meetings at Timmins, South Poreupine, Schuâ€" macher, Connaught and other centres., The meetings at Timmins on Tuesdayâ€" and at South ~Poreupine ‘the same eveningâ€" were especially â€" effective. But the interest in the address at such meetings passes with the election, and so The Advance makes no extended referencse to these events at this time. All members of the committee are asked to kindly note the dateâ€"Monâ€" day memn«v Dec. 13th. ATTRACTIVE CONCERT AT NEW EMPIRE ON DEC. 15 Musicâ€" lovms are assured of a genuâ€" ine treat on Wednesday evening, Dec. 15th, when â€" Birrell Bellt‘s (‘onm'rt Party will give a musical evening. The programme will be featured by a 25â€"piece orchestra, violin soloists, dancers, Scottish comedian, string quartette and other specialties. _ Reâ€" cently this Concert Party has wor very pronounced approval from large audiences at Schumacher and South Poreupine. _ _ The event in the New Empire Theatre, Timmins, on Wedâ€" nesday evening, Dec. 15th, commeneâ€" ing at 8.15 p.m., should draw a large crowd of lovers of music. The pupils of â€"Mr. Birrell Bell show both talent and skilled training, and the proâ€" gramme by them is sure to please. DELIGHTFUL EVENING AT ALLâ€"BRITISH SOCIAL CLUB (On Monday evening last an open dancee was given in the basement of Charles Hotel by the Allâ€"British Social Club. There was a very large attendance, and the evening was a most enjoyable one. The programme included â€" foxtrots, waltzes, and a Paul Jones. Another feature whs Luecky Number waltz. The. winners were asked to give an exhibition dance; the orchestra starting with a waltz and finishing with a gallop. This feature created much fun. T‘wo other special numbers on programme were the solos by Mr. R. Smith and Miss Cotcher, both talented smgers winning very merited encores by their scifted singing. ELECTION MEETINGS NOW HAVE LITTLE OF INTEREST Owing to the regular meeting night falling in the Christmas week, it has beenâ€" decided "to hold the December meeting of the local committee of the Victorian Order of Nurses on the second.

Accordingly, the regular V.O.N. meeting for December will be held on Monday evening, Dec. 13th, in the New Empire Grill Room, Next Mondayâ€"evening s varied proâ€" gramme will be given by the Allâ€"Briâ€" tish Club for members and their friends.
