This result due to the combination of the finest chorus in the We,tern Hemisphere and the finest orchestra, under a lead- ership which was little, short of in- apired—and the Ninth demands all three if it is not to become monoton- Otte The novelty was the work of the • Mendelssohn Choir of Toronto, which furnished the choral section:" There can he no question that this is the finest choir on this continent to -day. The singers who came to Philadelphia numbered 234, but .ap- siarently every one was a picked voice; there was no11"clead wood" in the organization which sang Thursday evening: They sang perfectly, and that is all that need he said as to the general performance, Larger choral organizations have appeared here, but none so perfect in every detail of singing s this one. In quality of voice, balance -of parts, shading, above all, volume when required, instant re- sponse to the leader, -Whether it was Mr. Stokowski or Mr, Fricker, unan- imity of dynamics and all of the thou- sand and one other details which go to make up perfect choral siging, the Toronto organization is at the very top. , Here is a chorus which can really sing the Ninth Symphony, end, no- -thing snore need be said. NOVA SCOTIA MINERS REFUSE WAGE SCALE Settlement Recently Made Re- pudiatedby Vote of Two to One. A despatch from Halifax says:— The coal miners of Nova Scotia voted almost two to one in Thursday's refer- endum against the new wage scale 3:tegotiated last month at Montreal be- tween the representatives of District No. 26, United Mine Workers, and the British Empire Steal Corporation. The vote was 5,617 against, and 3,145 for ratification of the new scale, totalling 8,762. ' • The repudiation of a contract eareering with it•an increase in wages, negotiated by the responsible officials of the district and the international representatives, has created a situa- tion that is without parallel in the history of the United Mine Workers' Associatioe.i The Provincial Executive will place the matter before President Lewis and the International Executive Board at once, CM -Ma's Picturesque Please Gone Under Labor Regime ,A despatch been London says:— Day by day the slump in the pictur- esque, due to the eetirement of the Tories and the coming into the office of the Labor Party, becomes more apparent. For years the ordinary Briton, far- , ing forth to the Continent or to the ends of the earth, felt, -when' he looked at his passport, that he was going on the grand tour, for- did his passport not begin with, these grand, rolling words: "We, George Nathaniel, Mar- quess Curzon,. of Kedleston, Viscount Scarsdale, Knight of the Most Noble Order a the Garter, Knight Conunan- -der of the Most Exalted Order of the Star of India, etc., etc., request and require, in the name of his Majesty, •all those whom it may concern to al- low Mr. Blankety-Blank-Blank to pass freely, without loss or hindrance, and to afford him every assistanee and protection bf which he may stand in need." - The passport was signed "Curzon. of Kedleston" and ornamented with a beautiful print of his arms, with the motto, "Let Curzon holde what Curzon helde"--altogether an impressive tout -ensemble. But Curzon, no longer holding what Curzon beide, a new name appears on British passports, without arms, motto or honois, except that its holder is "a member of His Britannic Majesty's Most High Privy Council." Thus the old order passeth. Ancient Shrine of St. Alban . Found in Danish :Village A despatch from London says :—A recent despatch from Copenhagen tells of the -discovery of the remains of an ancient 8hrine in the village of Tjaerborg, near Eesbjerg, dedicated to St, Alban. The frontispiece of the ehrine is richly ornamented with alle- gorical carvings of the Charlemagne period: The shrine is believed to have been taken to Denmark by the Danish Vik- inks, to pass into private possession early in the seventeenth century. Greater Toronto has a population of 709,000. Toronto proper hes a population of 684,226. Thee figures were prepared by the publishers of the Torento directory and, 'according to the same authorities, this city, in 1922, had a population of 627,520 and the suburbe 62,568. The increase in the suburbs for 1923 is just about double what it is in the city proper. French Heroes of Seine Floods Honored by Country . A despatch from Paris says:— This year's Seine flood provided Paris with a little known epic, but none the less -heroic, comparable with the leg- end of the Dutch boy who plugged a hole in the dike with his thumb. The French heron were two husky labor- ers, Berated and Regnier, who, when the Seine embankment collapsed, let- ting the water in to the tunnel of the Invalide,s Railway, worked for twenty- eight hours running, carrying 100 -lb. Backs of sand to build a new rampart, preventing damage to adjoining pro- perty which would have cost infilions a dollars.. ' Beraud was dragged from his post half asleep and Regnier collapsed while arguing with his comrade e to keep the -work going. He died in hos- pital. , The Munisipal -Council has proposed a gold medal for Beraud and a peneion for Regnier' s widow. • • Reports to the Dept of Lands and rorests for Quebec stare that the re - 'cent snowfalls have changed activity in lumber camps from cutting to the )muling of timber, which is available in large quantities.

Her coal supply must all be brought into the "province. , Not so in Nova Scotia, There 130,000 men find employment in and about the coal mines of which 1f),000 work underground and many of their'. under the sea, This number would make a con- siderable city of itself: in fact, the mines themselves are not unlike the layout of our eities. They are laid out to'a plan, with streets and lanes, -with railway tracks, with horns and mules for transportation purposes. Thomas J. Brown, Dep.' Min- ister of Mines of Nova Scotia, in a recent address, said; "We shear now and then of great feats of railway construction on the surface in God's own daylight, but their nerformance all sink into significance when we con- • sider the 'work c,f the citizens of the great black cities of Nova • Soothe, Tunnelling underground in the darlcness and surrounded by all the danger and drawback which accompany coal mining, they are excavating one mile of tunnel out of the solid coal every day, traneporting it for miles underground, tied constructing a rallway track in every foot of it at the same time." . It is thus that Canada's na- tural resources are being de- veloped, and a supply of coal produced for Canadian industry. L The only way to have a friend is t be one. Weekly Market Report TORONTO.
