AN UNQUALIFIED SUcoees.—The Petri. olio Concert given by the people of Brao• eels last Friday evening was a marked euooeae and passed off most satisfactorily. Notwithstanding the inclement weather and drifted roads the 'Town Hall wee orammed, the reoeipts at the door, at 25o. a tioket, being over 9111,00. No small amount of trouble was taken in the decoration of the Hall. Red, white and blue bunting and flags of all sorts and sizes gave ample eeideooe along be line of loyalty to the national colors while on the platform and around the walla were portraits of the Queen, George Washington, Sir John A. McDonald, Bir Wilfrid Laurier, Bir Oliver Mowat, Lord Roberta and various battle scenes. Fanoy tables, easy ohaire,oarpet,onrtaine and a large palm gave a home like ap- pearance to the stage. The committee on decoration certainly did their work well.Shortly atter 8 o'clock Rev. Jno. Holmes took the their, which position he filled with aooeptability, and the program was entered upon. "Rule Britannia," was the opening chorus, the audience joining in the chorea. Then tame "Hark 1 the dram," by a soore of little eubool boys who sang the Bong with a gusto, after reoeiving a start from Prin- cipal Cameron. W. M. Sinolair, glad in a military uniform, gave a fine solo "The boys in blue." Mr. Anderson was tohave followed with an address on "South Atrioa" but he woe unable to be present to the disappointment of many. Rev. John Roee, S. A., was changed from the second part of the program and gave an interesting and.00mprehensive review of the South African situation ; the. reasons for the present war and Britain's duty in the matter. Therevereudgentle. man did his part well. "Let the Hills and Dales resonnd" was the title of a male quartette well rendered by Jae. Jones, A.. Strachan, T. A. Hawkins and Alex. Rosa. Next came a military drill in which 1ov 2 b e were pet through their facings by W. M. Bien air Those tak- ing part were Joe.Mclay Ivan Crooks, Jas. Thomson, R. W. Matheson, R. Wi'liameon. Leslie Herr, Rob. Beattie, Ira Garry, Rob. Mo0raoken, Fred. Wil. eon, Fred. IIayoroft Will. McCracken and and with their soldier clothes, guns,_ bayonets, &o., gave a very realietio color to the 80ene ae they went through the varione evolutioue, which they did moat creditably ooneidering the short time for preparation. Jae. Thomson sang two verses of ".BOBvof the old Brigade" the oompany joining in the ohoros and marching as tbey sang. The "sol'diere" remained on the platform while Hngb R, Elliott, of Bruaeele, and Wm. Spenoe, 01 Ethel, were presented with Government silver medals commemorative of the Fenian raid. Jae. Irwin made the presentation and Mies Rebecca Spence and Miss Jean MoLauoblin pinned them on the breasts of the '66 veterans amidst rounds of applause. Mr. Spence sang "The Red, White and . Blue" capitally and the oborus went with a regular roar. This concluded the first part of the program. The Male Quartette eaug "Hail to the Northland" in gond voice. "The Queen's Letter,' a solo by Mies Lizzie Sample elicited a well deserved enoore and in reaponee "Amer - boa Looking On" was given. Miss Brook recited Tennyson's "Revenge" a most appropriate selection at a patriotic gathering and accurately and pleasingly presented. "Hail Canada, Fair Canada," was the title of the excellent solo Mae Spence, of Ethel, gave and responding to aheartyencore sang "This is Love," A quartette, "Beautiful Flag" by Mre. A. Smith, of Marton ; Mies Minnie Stewart, W. M. Sinclair and D. Stewart pleased the audience a0 well they de. manded a return and the last verse wail. given the second time. Alex. Rose eaog in good style "The widow of old Windsor Hall" and was reoalled singing "Her Majeaby," a fine Bolo breathing out loyalty. At this stage a eubecription was taken and so generous was the response. that the sum total of the even, ing amounts to $230,00. Mort appro. priute was the last eeleotion of the Male Quartette, entitled "Home Sweet Home" and was rendered in a most satiefaotory manner, Reeve Thomson proposed e hearty vote of tbanke to all who aesieted in the program, B. Gerry seconding the motion. Thin was followed with a vote of thanks to the chairman on motion of Postmaster Farrow and H. R, Elliott. The National Anthem brought to a close a most saoneeefnl and enjoyable program in which each performer acquitted them - aloes admirably and the audience went away well pleased with the concert and its financial results. • Mies Jean Mo. Lattanzi, mod T. A. Hawkins ae acoom• pp -nista rendered the best of 'service. Mre. Smith was on the program for a Salo but her throat would not permit of her singing which wee regretted as she is a line vooalist and a general favorite. W. Grewar, D. M. Boots and Goo. Beet, aired in the Qaeen'e uniform, discharged the duties of ushers with neatness acid dispatch, Bruesol3 did her part well in CURLIaG,—Two rinks. of Brussels curl- ers went to Wingham on Wednesday to amide the supremacy of °labs in District No. 3 in connection with the Western Tankard competition. Kincardine faulted to Brnesele ; Wroxeter to Luok. now ; Lnakoow to Wingham thus leav- ing Wingham and Bruseele the only contestants. The match was a close one being undecided until the laot end.
