All found the event a most enjoyable one and ecah number was much appreâ€" ciated. The selections by the orchestra inâ€" cluded :;â€"‘‘Field of Glory;‘‘ Oriental fantasie, ‘‘Desert Caravan‘‘; concert waltz, ‘"‘Autumnal Day‘‘; novelette, All these were given very effectively. ‘‘Field of Glory‘‘ was especially well received and was given as an enâ€" core. j The violin solos were particularly noteworthy. _ Miss (Poulin played 1st Air Varie,‘‘ ‘‘Theme by Pacâ€" cini,‘‘ with good expression, the difficult passages being canried by this talented artist with ease. Her sister played the accompaniment. Willie Shub presented Michel‘s Hunâ€" garian classic, ‘‘Czardaz No. 2,‘‘ with confidence and a fine tone worthy of note. This number merited the good reception given. Accompaniment by Mr. and Mrs. Birrell Bell and Leo. Laporte. ‘‘5th Air Varie,‘‘ by Leo. Laporte was a difficult selection for a debut, but the violinist showed great promise, the parts being well blendâ€" ed and the whole number given in pleasing way. _ Accompaniment for this number by Mr. and Mrs. Birrell Bell and Willie Shub. 2e CC iss The cornet solo, ‘‘Annie Laurie,"‘ by Carl Johns, won very hearty apâ€" plause, the artist playing the variaâ€" tions well, and the only disappointâ€" ment being the failure to respond to the request for ‘‘more.‘‘ Mr. James McFadden showed his special talents as an accompanist by the talented way in which ‘he dealt wifh the tricky piano passages in the accompaniment. es en in t ts o We i The vocal solo, ‘‘Aloha Oe,""‘ with accompaniment by the Hawaiian orâ€" chestra, was one of the big hits of the evening. Douglas Craig was the voâ€" cal soloist, and he was very well reâ€" ceived. The Hawaiian orchestra made its first appearance in this numâ€" ber, and an encore was insisted upon. The play, ‘‘Selling the Farm,‘‘ was another popular feature of the proâ€" ecramme. The trio giving this proved to be a decided asset and there was general hope that they may remain here permanently. The number was interesting and amusing in itself and specially well done. Mr. James McFadden, at the piano, as usual, proved himself an able acâ€" companist, and his good work added to the success of the evening‘s proâ€" gramme.

TORONTO STAR WEEKLY HAS GREAT IMAGINATION (From The Broke Hustler) A man calling himself Frederick Griffin writes in the ‘*Toronto Star Weekly‘‘ some experiences of referees and tells this about Iroquois .Falls :â€"â€" Mike Rodden gives Iroquois Falls the credit for being the most yabid town in which he ever refereed, beâ€" ing even worse than Springfield, Mass., or the old Mount Royal rink in Montreal. A couple of years ago he was rxeâ€" fereeing in Iroquois Falls in a game of the series with the Soo. Things were wild from the start. Thousands of dollars had been bet and the crowd were even more fanatical than usual. â€"+<*The climax came when a man opened his jack knife and huxled it at Rodden. It flashed past his head and just missed Bill Phillips of the Soo, now centre player of the Monâ€" treal Maroons. Mike calls Bill Phillips the coolest fellow he knows. He picked up the knife and skated over to the referee. S “Mlke ,‘*‘ he said, handing it over, "‘I don‘t mmd the vegetables and trozeu turnips, but I object to cutle..*'y t As Mike walked off the ice a wildâ€" eyed fan stuck out a revolver, "‘I‘m going to shoot you, you....‘‘ he said. right,""‘ said the referee, ‘Shoot away. Don‘t miss.‘‘ As he explains, there was no chance to duck or run away. _ man hesitated. Then, forâ€" tunately, someone in the erowd beanâ€" ed him. "That did not end Mike‘s troubles that night. Into the dressing room came the town serapper with a piece of seantling behind his back. Mike had to act fast. But he was never slow in a serap. He knocked the visitor out for twenty minutes with a cracked jaw.‘‘ ud o Awa h. th.. lying; and if Rodden did not tell that to Griffin, then Griffin is lying; that is all there is about it. It is just anâ€" other of the things that the ‘‘*Star‘‘ does every day, drawing on the imaâ€" gination to make a story read well, without the slightest attention to fact. Ne AEIE oo 2R CCC n db The only thing that happened at all in that game was that a man told Rodâ€" den he was going to lick him, but the man had indulged so frequently in the flowing bowl that he could hardly stand up. When Mike slammed him, hard, breaking a bone, and blacking an eye, the fellows here thought it mighty poor sportsmanship for a reâ€" feree to attack a man in such a conâ€" dition he couldn‘t defend himself. Every team coming from Toronto or outside, and every official, gets betâ€" ter treatment in lroquois Falls than our teams and officials get in Toronto. | A .. A ies t EDP PR OE SEA It is too bad the spoxt writers in Toronto cannot stick to the truth, but they think lroquom Falls is so far away that it is safe to slam them.
