JAS.’ PATON & GO'Y.!

THE D.ILY EXAMINER, CHARLOTTETUWN, JANUARY 26, 120)

THE BURNS CONCERT.

The audience which attended the Burns anniversary celebration last evening com- pletely filled tae Opera House, and thaor- oughly enjoyed tae excellent programme prepared by Mr. James Paton and the gentlemer associated with him on the coneert committee. Seo'ch music and Scetch song abounded, and a spirit ef paiiietism prevailed. There was not a poor vumber om the programme of twenty pieces.

Professor Caven, whose fine bass voice has not beem heard for a longtime, con- tributed the first vocal number,

“A Han- }

dred Pipers,” which pleased the avdience }

and made them anxious formore. The next solo was by Miss Florence Earle, who always simgs well. She gave My Willie and Me’ excellently, and later on ia the evewing sang “‘The Abseot Minded

Beggar” in a maoner whieh delighted everyone and call forth round afier round of applause. Mra. Watts’ rich

voice was heard t) advantage in “Auld Robia Gray ;” and Miss Hetiie Collings delighted everyore by her exquisite ren- dering of “Tne Old Seoick Says,” with piano and violia sccompanimenot and invieible chorus,

The secoad part of the program ve was opened by the ever-popular Robert Lamont, who sang “ Come under iy Piaidie” as only he can sing it; and ix response to a vociferous encore Mr, La- ment gave “* The Hie’landman’s Toast.” Mr. Charlee Earle, who seems to be ab! to sing better every time he appears, a1 i- ed to his popularity ia “‘ Cam’ ye by Athol,” and was rewarded with welli- merited applause. Mr. Frank Stanley, the latest acquisition ‘o Charlottetown’s male Singers, contributed materially to the success of the entertainment, his simging of “Burns and Scotland Yet,” aad “Bcots Wha Hae,” (the latter by special request) being greatly appreciated.

There were twe quartettes on the pro- gramme, aad both were pleasing contri« bations, the voices blending well. The first was “ Robin Adair,” rendered by Messrs. Davison, Cook, Maloney and McKay, and the secend, “ Annie Laurie,” by Mre. Nerton, Mre. Watte, Mies Browo anil Miss Webster. The duet by Mise Awy Esrle and Mr. Charles Earle was sung im good voice and pleased everyone.

lhe clarionet solo by Prefessor Watts, and Mr. Vinnicombe’s violin solo, showed what can be done with these instruments when played by master hands; and the three selections by the ercheetra were we ] pe-fermed.

Niss Filo. Mackenz’e gave two patriotic recita:ioue, “Scotland, the Worlds Mother,” aod “Our Sit of the [hinRed Line,” and the applause which attended the rendering in- dicated the great pleasure afforded the au-

dience. Mr. T.A.McLean substituted a readimg for the recitation opposite his name, ard gave ‘‘ The Burial of General

33

Wauchope ” in excellent style.

The Highland mareh and dance by a number of boys and girls uader the direc- tion of Miss H. C. Macdonald, was « fea- ture that pleased everyone, the lads and lassies marching and dancing exceediugly wel), The Buros tableau which preceded thie number «ae artistically arranged and strikingly «ff utive

The accc mypauiments during the even- ing were -k. ituily played by Prot. Earle. Prof. Watte, Mr. Blarchard and Mr. Lamont, ct Fredericton.

The Boys of The Second Contin-| gent.

(Special correspondence of Tue ExamIxeR)

Hairax, Jan. 23.—Two train loade ef | Mounted Poliee and Northwest Cowboys, arrived in Halifax early yesterday mora- ing. They comprised the second section of the Mounted Rifles aud consisted ef, twelve officers, three hundred and thirty- hundred and eleven

three mea and two

horses, They were the centre ef attrace | tion here to-day. ‘Oh, they are the boys!” A hardtime the Boers will have

who come within range of those chaps. | The very sight of some of them will) frighten you acd make you feel decidedly | smail and upimportaut. The horees they

brought, too, with them were a surpise to} Basternere. They are emall and/{ shaggy, and must be very hardy, for they | looked quite fresb atier their long railway | jourmey. Seme of them had only been riddem enee or twice; and to say that they were wild—well the use to which we put

the word here does not express what some | of tbe horses are at all. Tne broache! tumt we reed about iam t.e cewboy stories | gives aw idea of what they are like, and one whv bas seen them could well believe tnet ‘hose stories are not exaggerated. K:ck—why they kiek first with their hind legs and then with cheir fore, they stand straight up, then jump oe their hind lege, hee on their fore. But the men don’t| miod them—go up alongside them, while

others would run for their lives; and thay take goed care of them too. But the men themseives,~-they appear to be almost as andy as their herses.

Of course the Mounted Police look the | better, nearly all of them must be Bix | feet, fine big strapping fellows, Many of them are gentiemen by birth. They were

’

great favorites about the city today. Crowds would stop on the streets. and gaze after them and = take |

interest in their every action when one or two would be walking downtown. As fur (he cowboys, or ranchers, they are a mixed crew. Thev have noe uniform. Some wear the big broad-rimmed hat with the rest of their clothes of various ma- terials. Some bave yreat fur coats, some: farjackets. Auanovoer are dreseed en- tireiy in come Kind of bide like chamois

meterial, and some lvok very .auch like

the rougher and _ bigger farmers on the Island. But tuey al) certainly know now to macage horses. The Boers

will probably fiod out thatthey all know, a thing or two about handling a rifle. The borses are branded, many of them on the fore feet and the reat on the hips.

Of course the other section, the eastern men, of the Mounied Rifles who have been here for several] days altnough rather put in the shade by the wild and woolly wesis ern mex, came in fer no little ehare of ! visitor’s admiring attention. This morn- ing they were tu'ned out on horseback without saddles, This afternoon the horses | were each individually inspected by General Huttoa. The horees were hard te handle

aod the men had a good deal of trouble in msking them do what the commanding officer wanted them to do. However, they will no doubt be in splendid shape before the Milwaukee is ready to gail.

Work on the Pomeranian ie being rush- ed right along, and it is euppoeed that she will sail on Tuesday. Lieut. Colonel Irving and the other cflicers who have to do with the trapeporting, etc., are kept exceediogly busy.

The tram-care are making abig thing out of the contingent being in town. Every car going to and coming from the exhibi- tion grounds is loaded,

The newsof Captain Hensley’s death was received here with great regret and sorrow, and gloom was thrown over the whole citye

Don’t Blame The Doctor

. Sometimes a Physician is blamed for not curing a patient as soon as they think they ought to be.

Sometimes a Physician wonders why a certain drug he prescribes does not have the expected bene- ficial action on his patient.

Perhaps the Drug-

Attention to our December 81st Account wil. oblige us.

gist is to Blame If the drug ordered by the Phy-

Sician is not used, but another sub- stituted, because the druggist doesn’t happen to have it in stock, ifthe drugs are not pure, if the prescription is net properly dis- pensed Any one of these reasons would defeat the object of the phy- sician, and might cause him to be unjustly blamed.

We do all in our power to help the Physician by using only drugs of known purity, never substituting one drwg for another, and person- ally doing everythieg in our power to help the physician, by seeing that every prescription is properly dispensed.
