She appeared in no immediate dagger, although she listed slightly on the left side. She -went aground last night. . The tug Relief from Key West and the coast guard cutter Unalga from Fol-t Lauderdale rode at anchor nearby, ready to lend assistance. The Relief was expected to attempt to float the Marques during the night or tomorrow. Passengers aboard the stranded liner appeared at perfect ease. The Marques, out of Barcelona, Spain, for Havana and Mexican ports, cleared from New York April 1. Whether the ship of 450 feet, punched a hole in her bottom in striking the reef was not known.

Objections t0 the legislation, four in number, were set forth in a brief submitted to the Council by its com- mlttee appointed to deal with the power matter. The brief was ap- proved by the Council. Chief objection to the proposal arose through the view that the legislation was the "first step lead- ing to the consummation of a mer- ger" between the Power Company and its subsidiaries." The commit- tee expressed itself as opposed to any merger.

Cable) —The House of Commons tonight gave second reading to the Govern- ments Bill authorizing executive declaration of an embargo against Russian goods, after turning down a Labor motion for its rejection by a vote of 347 to 48. Opposition Lib- erals refrained from voting. The Bill, which would give the Government a weapon in the case of six British engineers arrested in Moscow on charges of sabotage and’ espionage, aroused Labor opposition on the ground the crisis might have and very appreciative aildiencc. It may be said of Mme Kurenko that her vocal technique is faultless. Her voice, too, is very pure and clear throughout its whole range ,and her tone colour is remarkably pleasing. The well chosen programme was as follows: i I Shepherd! Thy Demeanour Vary (Old Englism-Arr. by Brown. Phyllis Has Such Charming Graces (Old Englisln-Arr. by Wil- son. Alleluia (from the Motet, "Exuit- ate, JubilatsW-hfozart. ll Aria, from tllc Opera, “Sncg- ourotchka"—Rilnsky-Korsakoff. Ladouchki (children's game song) -—Strlmer-(Dedieated to Mme. Ku- renko).

The Mozart Alleluia, and the Aria: "Una voce poco fa,” as also the Ver- di “Bolero" and the Jewel Song-all very difficult technically—were well suited to the Artist's voice and were splendidly and effectively sling. The same may also be said of the "Pas- sepicd" of Dcllbes, which was speci- ally arranged for Mme. Kurenko. The old English numbers, "Shepherd! Thy Demeanour Vary" and “Phyllls Has Such Charming Graces," were very beautiful too. But possibly the most interesting selection was the Aria, from Rimsky- Korsakoffs opera "Snegourotcllka." This is very fine music-and it was finely sung by Mme. Kurcnko. The vocalist was very fortunate in having as her accompanist Mr. Harry Dean, President of the Hali- fax Community Concert Association. His broad and sound musicianship was made evident in his treatment of the piano accompaniments for the various numbers. Previous to the recital and in tile intermission, brief remarks were made by Mr. Justice Arsennult, President of the Charlottetown Com- munity Concert Association, and by Mr. Dean.
