JUNE 18, 1890. Notes and Comments. -Prospects were never better for a large

fruit: and recent rains have fresh over the

crop of ened up the other crops all country.

—The Edwational Review published at St. John’s has entered upon its fourth year. We notice in the last issue of it a ‘likeness of the late Donald Montgomery, Esq

-The Week hasarrived at the conclu sion that the cause of constitutional free- dom in Germany has probably lost nothing and gained much by the exchange of a Bis marek for a Von Caprivi.

Advices from Chicago report that the prices of cattle are advancing — particularly the class of medium to choice grades. The hog market 1s, however, very dull and sheep are largely in excess of demand.

The Writer gives these four lines con- cerning the proper use of shall and will : In. the first person, simply, shadd foretells; In will a threat or else a promise dwells; Shall in the second or the third doth threat, Wid simply thea foretells the future feat. ~The Empire reports that the doubling of the population of Toronto within eight years has kept pace with by the

peen

erection of new buildings, and the city is no more crowded uncomfortably than it

was ten years ago.

— Le Canada regards the issue of the On- tario elections as evidence that the Catholic vote is solid when Catholic rightsare assailed, and that Protestant sentiment is in the main Opposed to a revival of the old feuds of creed and race. Equal Rightism, it says, is « thing of the past.

—The Irish Catholic, says a recent tele- gram, states that the Pope, in replying to the congratulations of visitursat the Vatican, expressed himself as strongly of the belief that great punishment®* vas impending on society for its disregard of, and indifference to, the Church. “The Lord,” he said, ‘‘willcome no longer with a sweet and peaceful faco, but with an angry one to strike and purify His church. [am neither a prophet, nor the son of a prophet, but 1 feel in my heart surrowful presentments.”

—The last number of The Dominion lliustrated is largely devoted to the Rvuyal Visit, there being fine views of the arrival of the Abyssinian at Vancouver, B. C., of Stanley Park in that city and its striking bridge that leads tu it, of the Decorated that drew the Royal Party over the mountains, of the inspection of the Cadets and the Lacrosse Match at Montreal, and other ijjustrations. ‘The view of Stanley Park, which the Duke of Connaught so much admired, is very effective, and the other pictures are correspondingly good. Presby- terians will appreciate the portrait of the Rev. Dr. Laing, Moderatur of the General Assembly. The next issue of The Do- minion Illustrated will be a special Victoria number, and will be unusual'y interest- ing. Address: The Dominion Illustrated, 73 St. James Street, Montreal.

~At the openingof the present cen- tury there were in round fizures, 20,500- 00) people who spoke the Eaglish language “hey were chiefly in England. We were yaly a few millions in America. The French that time numbered sbout $1,590,000, and the Germans exceed- ed 3),900,000. The French speech is now used by 50,000,000 peuple, the German by about 70,000,000, the Spanish by somewhat more than 40,000,000, the Russian by about 70,000,000, the Italian by about 30,- 699,090, and the Portuguese by perhaps 13,000,000. The English language has en- ormousiy outgrown its competitors. It is used by nearly twice as many as any one of the others, and its relative growth is sure to continue. North America alone will soon have 100,000,009 English speaking people. There are 40,000,000 in Great Bricain and Ireland. Australia ~ will, a generation htace, have as many English people as Eogland now has.

Centennial Celebration.

MES. JOHN M'DONALD'S ONE HUNDREDTH BIRTHDAY, AND HOW IT WAS

CELEBRATED.

Tue relatives and friends of Mrs. John McDonald celebrated that lady’s one hun- dredth birthday in a becoming marner at her residence, Goose River, yesterday. The weather was beautiful. About one hun- dred and fifty persons were present, the yreater number of whom were Mrs. Mac- Donald's relatives. Charlottetown, Souris, Tignish and other portions of the province were well represented at the gathering. Among the clergymen present were His Lordship Bishop McIntyre (Mrs. McDon- ild's brother); Mar. Gillis, East Point, and Revs. D. J. G. Macdonald, St. Margarets; J.C. Maedonald, St. Dunstan’s College; Roderick McDonald, Pictou; D. F. Me- Donald, Souris; A. J. McIntyre, Tracadie; R. J. Gillis, St. Peter’s; J. J. McDonald,

Charlottetown, and Alex. McAulay, St. Peter's. Three Masses were said at Mrs. McDon-

ald’s residence between 7 and 9 o'clock, a. m. His Lordship was the celebrant at the seven o'clock service, at which Holy Com- munion was received by Mrs. McDonald and her sister, Mrs. James McDonald, who is 89 years of age. The second service was by Rev. Alex. McAulay, and the third by Rev. A. J. Mclatyre.

At one o’clock dinner was provided. The table was spread in excellent style. In the centre was placed the handsome cake made expressly for the occasion by Mr. Carter of this city, and which was presented to Mrs. McDonald by Mrs. Dr. Melntyre, of Scuris. On the cake there was inscribed **1790-1890; 100 years.” There were also a number of other beautiful cakes on the table, and a magnificent bouquet from the Sisters of the City Hospital, On this bouquet was a Gelic inscription, of which the tollowing is the translation : ‘100 years —Mrs. John McDonald.” His Lordship Bishop McIntyre occupied the position of honor at the head of the table, and Mgr. Gillis was the vice-chairman. At the right of His Lordship sat his brother, Mr. John Melntyre, who is 74 years of age, and at his left his two sisters, aged 89 and 76 re- spectively.

After dinner His Lordship Bishop Mce- Intyre delivered an address in Gelic, and Rev. A. J. MelIntyre spoke in English. The remainder of the afternoon was de- voted to vocal and instrumental music, ete. Miss Lizzie McDonald presided at the organ. The proceedings throughout were of a highly edifying and pleasing character, aud were greatly appreciated by those whose privilege it was to be present,

Mrs. McDonald herself was unable to be present at dinner, being confined to her room. However, she met and conversed freely with many of the _ guests. Although for some little time past she has not been able to move about as formerly, her general health is excellent considering her great age, and her mental faculties are unimpaired.

Philharmonic Society’s Meeting.

A general meeting of the Philharmonic Society was held last evening. The Presi- dent addressed the meeting, and gave a summary of the year’s work and read the Secretary's statement of the first financial year of the Suciety, up to July Ist, 1890, and estimates of probable receipts and ex penditure for the second financial year to end of July Ist, 1891. The total expendi- ture including the repairing of the old Athe- naeum, coloring ceilings and ornamenting the walls (which had given the Society a comfortabie and pleasant place for meet- ings) providing stoves, window blinds, caretaking, coal, gas, rent of piano, music scores and rental of hall amounted to $584 31; and the total receipts from active and honorary members’ subscriptions and cash from rental of hall for various uses and cash from sales of music scores to members, proceeds from concert held in Des. 19, 1889, and from concert held on June 12th, i890, amounted to $643.33. This kaves the Suciety with a balance on hand at the close of its first financial year of $59.02, which, as the President explained, was a, very satisfactory condition of affairs.

The estimates of probable expenditure and receipts fur the second year up to July ist, 1891, showed that it would be necessary for the Society to raise a total of $450 or $500, which includes a proposed salary for Musical Director.

Various members of the Society then ad dressed the meeting, and the opinion was strongly expressed that every effort must | be made to induce the present musical director to remain Charlottetown and con- tinue his useful work in connection with the Philharmonic Society.

it was then proposed that a change be made in the date of the annual meeting for election of officers from September tu June, so that the Saancial year commencing on July Ist, 1890, shouid ggree with the date of the election of officers; and it was. decided to call a full meeting of the society for election of officers for the ensuing year on Monday, 23rd inst.

It was then proposed and carried that the executive committee be authorized to make arrangements for carrying on the work of the suciety for the ensuing year, as soon as they raise a sum considered suffi- cient to warrant them in undertaking the work,

The meeting then adjourned,

The work of carrying on the Philharmonic Society for the last year has been one necessitating a great amount of labor and patience on the part of many of the mem- bers. But everything looks bright now, and all who assisted are generally enthus- iastic after a successful concert has takea place; but after this enthusiastic interest has been forgotten, comes the time of danger for a _ society of this nature. We sneerely hope that the influential citizens when called upon will financially assist the society in the carrying on of its useful and educational work in our midst.
