4 general meeting of the Philharmonic Society is to be held at the Philharmonic Hall, this evening, when the question of ite cumtinuance will probib’y be decided.

that

difficulties now present

require to be overcome, the society may still continue its useful work of pro- ducing the beautiful oratorios and cantatas of thegreat masters; for, without the society the opportunity of ever hearing these works will cease, as no one will take up the haed labour of organizing such an institu- tion, and at present the music loving peo- ple should give it their cordial support.

We certainly think that the capital of the Province of Prince Edward Island

This would permit the hard word of learning the ditlicult choruses to be distributed over the whole year, while the simpler choruses would tend to make the concerts more enjoyable.

As a means for producing revenue for the current year, one proposed is to issue tickets of membership admitting the hold- ers to two reserved seats at each of the two concerts and to hold each of the concerts on two evenings at a lower entrance fee than has heretofore been charged.

Against Mr. Stewart's dictum, however, I can place the opinion of the Attorney-General, who was De, Toombs counsel, and who, with his ciieat’s con- sent, permits me to say that he advised an »ppeal and considered the Judge's opinion erroneous.

Strawberries Extraordinary.

Proressor McLeop, of Prince of Wales College, has, in recent years, made a specialty of strawberry culture. We are indebted to him for an early box of these berries—large, luscious and beautiful. The yarieties contained

in the box are the Crawford, specimens of which measure about six inches in circumference, the

Bubach, equally large, the Haverland, the Warfield and the Pearl — all excellent. These productions show that our Island soil and c!imate are particularly well adapt- ed for the growth of the best strawberries, and are suggestive of whar might easily be done by every farmer threvghout our Pro- vince. Why are strawberries and other smll fruits more expensive here than in any other part of the Continent—seeing that they can be produced here in greater perfection than almost anywhere else / Among the strawberries grown by Professor McLeod are the Eureka, Gandy’s Pride, Michel’s Early, Professor Saunders, Gover nor Hoard, and a number of older kinds— perhaps the finest variety grown here or anywhere else.

Just before her bereavement, Lady Mac- donald, widew of the late Sir John Macdon- ald, completed her firss ambitious Jiterar> effort in a series of articles for the Ladies’ Home Journal, the first one of which will appear in the August number of that peri- odical. Last summer Lady Macdonald, with a party of friends, travelled in her private car through the most pictureeque parts of Canada, and in a delightfully fresh manner she describes her experiences on this trip, in these articles to which she has given the title of ** An Unconventional Holiday.” A series Of beautiful illustrations, furnished by Lady Macdonald, will accompany the articles.

imperial Federation. SIR CHARLES TUPPER BRINGS FORWARD SOME DEFINITE PROPOSALS. es | The Montreal Star publishes the fullow- inv speeial from London :

** Respondiog to Lord Salisbury 's demand for a plan of Imperiel federation Sir ( a Tupper has submitted to the council of the Imperial Fe-leration League a series of definite proposals, These embrace the admission ot | High Commissioners of Canada, Australast «| and South Africa to the Imperial Privy Coun- cil and the Imperial Cabinet, while holding | positions in the Federal Cabivrets of the re- spective colonies ; also the establishment of a small preferential duty within the empire against foreiga goods, This, Sir Charles Tupper believes, would give the colonies a needed voice in imperial aff irs and at the same time make the unity of the empire a matter of matual interest, Sir Charles contends that it is neither prudent nor tight to expect the colonies to contribute to an imperis! defence fund, in view of what the colonies have done or are doing t: strengthen the position of the empire. ln

connection with this argument Sir Charles instances Canada’s immense outlay strengthen British in and the east in connection with the Canadian Pacific Railway and the St. Lawrence canale. The High Commissioner had the honer ct sul mitting these proposals betore the lai yest and most influential meeting the counci. of the league ever held. The council unaisi- mously decided to appoint a committee re- presenting al! parts of the empire to consider the proposals and to prepare a definite plan for the federation of the empire to submit to Lod Salisbury.”

higher court, and in delivering my address to them as retiring President, I was not only acting well within my rights, but simply doing my duty in drawing their at- tention to this judgment, and giving my reasons for believing that Judge Alley had arrived at an incorrect conciusion, It seems, however, that Mr. Stewart thinks that because I dared to do so the Medical Act should not be passed, and that the

whole profession should be punished for my temerity! 1 believe the Law Society his the right by

statute to debar a lawyer duly admitted by the court from following his calling unless he conforms with itsregnistions, but according to this legal authority, the doctors are incapab'e and unfit to exercise the same func'ions as regarde their professiona) brethrep, This is truly refreshingly modest on the part of Mr. Stewart !

Mr. Stewart’s inuendo that Dr. Toombs’ case had no precedent for the reason that no other doctor had refrained from informing a third party oceupying Mr. Seller's position,

fever ie so exceedingly disingenuous and 8» contrary te the testimony of the doctois examined, which showed that in their practice after having informed the nurse of the nature of the disease they considered their duties ended as not worthy of even this passing notice. Having condemned me an- neard he takes the liberty, forsooth, to stigmatize the whole medical professionof P. EF. Island as unfit to be entrusted with the same powers and privileges 9s are accorded to the profession elsewhere, If I, because [ con- demn his conduct towards me as unfair, were to brand the whole legal fraternity ia this Province as unlit to exercise the rights granted to them as a Law Soviety, I- would simply be guilty of an impertinence. 1 leave it to your readers to apply the most “fitting epithet to Mr. Stewart's conduct. Mr. Stewart endorses the ** facts” as given in your summary, Astomy reason for challenging the truthfulness of these ‘‘facts” and the correctness of the Judge’s decision, he must only possess his soul in patience unti] my | paper ie published.

The Rifle.

The third of the series of league matches was shot throughout the Dominion on Sat- urday afternoon. Though the afternoon was favorable for shooting, yet our teams were placed at a disadvantage in beginning at a late hour and finishing in the dark. This was caused by the fact that a large number of the militia were required for duty till three o’clock. The Engineers were one man short. The 82d Battalion team shot well, making nearly 86 points per man. The ranges were 200, 400, and

500 yards. 82ND BATTALION.
