In the absence of Miss M. Need, Miss McKenna contributed a spirited piano solo to the programme, and was followed by Rev. Father Crowley, who devoted his address to an explanation of the aims and objects of the Iadies’ auxiliary, in tie cours= of which he managed to say a good mauy gallant things of the sex. One of the order's primary objects, he said, was to perpetuate the best traditions of the Celtic race; as also to foster patriotism for the flag under which we live. From Lex- ington to the surrender of Lee, he main- tained, the Irish have always shown themselves foremost in the struggle for liberty. Miss Katherine Black aang several Na- tional selections in admirabie style, and was loudly encored on each occasion. Her sister, Miss Fanny Black, was equally suc- cessful as an elocutionist, her choice and treatment of subject, albeit undertaken at a moment’s notice, achieving instant pop- ularity. The last orator on the programme was Dr. Thomas J. Galvan, who spoke for up- ward of half an hour with an eloquence t.y]iically Celtic, and although perbaps un- duly tinged with the*deathrock measleep’” spirit his periods were epigrammatic, spirited and patriotic, and as such warmly applauded. He reminded his hearers that Ireland had not only produced a purilist O Clear ® Partly Cloudy @ Cloudy ® Rain® Sno Explanation. The arrow flies with the wind.

In this latter expectation the spectators were not disap- pointed, but the outcome was a genuine surprise. Nealon and Bonmet won the first game and Riordan and Donnelly the second and third. They looke! like sure winners, but Nealon and Bonnet pulled themselves together and won the next two amid the wildest excitement. The champions did not at all like their defeat and challenged the winners to pla next Sunday. It was at once accepted.
