THE GRADUATES OF THE YEAR,

SackviLue, N. B., May 28.

Last night, a conversazione of the alumni and alumine societies came off. Aninterest- ing essay was read by Miss Jane Humphrey, M. L. A, of Moncton. H. A. Powell, B. A., M. P. P., delivered an elequent oration. The evening passed off very pleasantly.

The orations were well delivered, and showed great care in preparation.

Mr. Crowe divided the possible destiny of Canada under three heads: 1. To re- main as at present. 2. To be annexed to the United States. 3. To become inde- pendent. He was of the opinion that in- dependence would be the best of this tri- lemma,

Mr. McCoy adduced many facts and figures to show that the future of the pro- fessions is a bright one.

Mr. Anderson advocated the claims of the third party as a means of obtaining the total prohibition of the liquor traflic.

Mr. Dobson referred in tender tones to the death, during the year, of two of his fellow-students, one by disease, the other by drowning.

Miss Daisy Lewis, of Charlottetown, brought down the house by her beautiful singing

The thesis of the Rev. D. D. Moore, of Cornwall, P. E. 1., evidenced much thought and study.

Dr, Inch referred to the expected de- pariure of Dr. Burwash and Principal Davis, regretting that the institutions were about to lose two such able men.

Missionary Enterprise.

The anniversary of the Methodist Brick Church Sunday School Missionary Society was held yesterday, and was a time of special interest to all associated with it.

The Mssionary meeting was held at three o’cluck p., m., in the auditorium of the cliurch ; the schcol, under the leader- ship of officers and teachers, being massed in front ot the platform.

The devotional services were conducted by the pastor, the Rev. Mr. ead. Mr. F. W.L. Moore occupied the chair and opened with a neat and appropriate speech The little people in their appearances upon the platform, also acquitted themselves well. The report presented by the sec- retary, Mr. E. H. Beer, showed the school to be in « flourishing condition, and Mr Harry Boswall the treasurer, reported the childrens contributions fur the year, to- wards their Mission in Japan, to be in the neighborhoud of $400.

The closing address was delivered by the

tev. E B. Moore, a former scholar of the

sch ol, and now chairman of the Truro dis- trict in the conference of Nova Scotia. In the course of his address, Mr. Moore called up tender and sacred memories of the olden time, and paid a most eloquent tribute to the memory of the late Rev. Albert S, DesBrisay, a fellow scholar, with whom he had been formerly assuciated in ministerial work,

Mr. Moore preached in the Second Church at the morning service, and in the evening, in the Brick Church, gave the an- nual missionary sermon to a large and ap- preciative congregation. It was a thought- tul, well-delivered discourse, fresh and strong, illustrative of the necessity for the Christ-like spirit of self sacrifice, in order to secure the success of christian missions.

Mr. Arbuckle, Inspector of Schools, is visit- ing the city.

Laval University has conferred the degree of Doctor of Laws on Lord Stanley, Governor General of Canada.

Mr, James W. Sharpe, agent for the Ed- monds Variety Company, was at the Osborne on Saturday. He le:t for Souris this morning. The company wiil open in this city next week.

Lewis Carvell, Esq., returned from Boston on Saturday evening.

We regret to learn that Mr. John P. Wick- ham, Principal of Queen Square School, is seriousiy iki.

We regret to learn that Mr. Joseph Hogan leaves to-morrow morning for Montreal. The conditions which render the living of a sober and decent citizea like Mr. Hogan unbearable in Charlottetown, are in the highest degree discreditab'e.

Mr. J. KE. Evans, for many years past in the employ of Messrs. J. D. McLeod & Co., has severed his connection with the firm, and will leave shortly for Spokane Falls, Washington, where he will reside in future. Mr. Evans is an active, energetic young man, and a very competent salesman. THe EXAMINER wishes him success in his future home,

The Rev. Fred. E. J. Lloyd preached his farewell sermon, last evening, to the congre- gation of St. Peter’s Church, from the text: ‘Behold, how good and pleasant a thing it is,

brethern, to dwell together in unity.” Mr. Lloyd will not leave ( harlottetown for several weeks ; and we hope that arrangements may be made under which he will be induced to remain inthe Province. The departure of two men of such culture and talent as Mr. Lloyd and the Ven. Archdeacon Weston- Jones will involve a heavy loss to the com- munity.

The second of the series of Canadian League Rifle matches wes shot on Saturday afternoon throughout the Dominion. Fifty-two teams have telegraphed their re- sults which will be found below. Here the weather was not very favorable for shoot-

ing. The strong cross wind with mist at times rendered it difficult to hold the target. The 82nd Battalion shot up well

in this match, taking 7th place in the list. Sergt. McMullan made the splendid total of Yl points, the highest possible being 105. Capt. Weeks also made a good score, viz: 89 points. Below are the scores:

On Saturday and to-day a number of prime caitie were weighed on the City seales by Mr. Sellars. All were for city butchers, and are intended for slaughter. Below will be found the weights of the different animals andthe names of the owners and by whom sold.
