Toronto Evening Star ' On Thursday evening Mr, Ernest 'MacMillan, A. R. C. O., Organist of Knox Church gave an excellent organ recital on the new organ in the West - minister Presbyterian Church, Bloor Street East. Mr. MacMillan is a most I gifted musician and has recently re. turned from a course of study with I the celebrated blind organist Alfred Hollins. Tha recitalist is well known I in Toronto and a'very large audience was on hand. •His rendering of Rol- lin's concert overtune in 0, minor was rotate Iv. Bark's Toecita and Fugie in 0. Walstenhohnes allegretto in E. flat, Doorak's largo from the "New World" symphony vv ere the chief organ numbers and all were rendered in a most musicianly manner. Tor- ontore young and gifted organist, Mr. Ernest A. Campbell Irlacalillan, Ass - °elate Royal College of Organists gave a very interesting recital last evening in Knox Church before a .large aud- ience, despite the unfavorable nature of the weather, Mr. MAcaltllart's pro- gramme wes diversified in character and well arranged. His playing was remarkable Inc one so young. Mr. MacMillan possesses abundant techni- eat °talky', Itis pedal technique pestle- rilarly being singulorly neat IA nd clean. Further in his selections he revealed a keen sense of discriminatiun in inter- preting the the varying moods requir- eel by the eomposer. The organ of Knox church although a satisfactory instrunient in -many respects does not ohvi usly permit of obtaining es fine eifeets as would otherwise be achieved were there a greater variety of stole; and ace saories, but, although handis capped in this respect, Mr, isliteSliflon played admireblv, His chief nuill betS comprised Etheinberger's Pastoral lam- ina in O.

The Lodge is expecting a very large influx of visitors and are prepared accordingly. Clinton will be well represented that day. One That Is 'Effective There are many ways of advertis- ing our town. but one of the most effective by long.odds is for own citi zens to be wide-awake in taking ever, oppertunity to bring the town's ad- vantages and development to the at- tention of friends living elsewhere. Be Calm • WEEP not, because your new Spring' BC at a • M Wnot be done till Easter Mon- day, The chances are we'll have some snow Easter • • Sunday. • Look Out For These A five -dollar Traders Bank bill, bear- ing the forged signature of an officer, of a bank at Winnipeg, has been suc-; eeerfully pass -ed in a Toronto hotel). This is one of a bundle of $30,0C.0 stolen between Ottawa and Toronto from an express car a year ago. Oth- ers have been passed in different parts of the province, and ,il appeare the y are still circulating. Will Bare Time To Think Over It Mayor alcC it an, of Seaforth, has received a letter from Mr. Southern, the chief engineer of the Hydro Elec- tric Commission, saving.that it is the; intention of the Commission to trans- mit Niagara Power to the towns along the line of railway es faras Clinton as soon as possible. The price cannot ee fixed until it is known how much each municipality will be prepared to take. When the power readies Clinton, the town will be considerable older than it is now, and there is•no use worrying over ittill we see it at Seaforth. 33rd Regiment Highest in No. I Distric t The Inspector General Sir Percy Lake in his last report says the 33rd Regiment in point of efficiency is the best in the district next comes the 30th of Wellington. Lt. Col, Wilson and officers are of course much related over this report and feel the interest andaeal they have so long exercised to attain this position has been suc- cessful. For years it has been gene- rally known the Regiment, had more ninalified officers than any other Regiment in the District their work now shows what be done by united efforts. This no doubt will have much to do with the selection of a perma- nent Camp Ground in this County. The people of the County of Huron should encourage the recruiting of good men so as to keep what we tow hold, The County Councij in their wisdom has shown tangible encourage ment by supplementing the men's pay and the effect is now evident. Organ Recital An Organ Recital will be given in S.:, Paul's Church on Thursday even. ing the 31st of March by Wm. Ernest MeMillati, Organist of Knox Church, Toronto. it will be remembered that on the last visit of Bishop Baldwin to Clinton in 1004.
