A distinct Scottish atmosplierre WOPB retum to reside three In the Court yesterday Haszard deliver- in the case. without a of a to recover the sum of a pair of foxes the defendant. before me with- s. jury a few ago. Practically only question to be determined was as to the delivery. The contract of purchase at $4,000 was admitted by the defendant but it was claimed by him to be condition- al on the foxes being placed in the Park Island Ranch. While it may have been arranged between the defendant and Lea, who acted as his agent for the purchase, that the foxes when purchased were to be placed iii_the Park island Ranch in pens leased'to the Barker Co., ' in which both the defe_i%l$nt and Lea were interested, the o s a director and the other as manager, the corr - pondence and acts of the parties, aiifl the weight of evidence. shows conclus- ively in my opinion that it was not a conditional sale and that the plaintiff had nothing whatever to do with the arrangements between the defendant and Lea as to the placing of tlic foxes in the said Park lslaiid Rauch. The‘ delivery was complete when Lea notified plaintiff in writing _that he had taken possession of them for defendant. The point raised by the defendaiit`s attorney as to the action not being properly brought, the animals or fox- es being “fur nature” has no applica- tion to this case, these animals hav- ing been tamed or domesticated and while so under control were the plaintiffs property. ~- A verdict will bc entered for thc plaintiff for $4,000, thc amount claimed. C888 The Burns Anniversary concert is always looked forward to as the musi- ral event of the season, and that of last night fully measured up to expec- tations. The spacious l’eople's Thea- tre was filled to its utmost capacity, notwithstanding that the weather was anything but agreeable. The pro- gramme began, as all Scottish con- certs invariably do, promptly on time, and was carried *through without a hitch and without an uninteresting moment. The best musical talent in the city was represented on the pro- gramme. The musical selections were among the finest in Scotch minstrel- sey, while the drills and dances by the younger set-many of them very 3'oun_g-were executed with splendid precision and evidenced careful train- pervaded the performance not only in the bagplpe music and vocal selec- tions, but in the picturesque Highland costumes worn by many ol' the per- formers. A particularly beautiful bit of stage setting was that iii which a‘ number of artificial Scotch iiiistles were represented, some of them elec- tricaly illuminated. and surrouiided by a. score or more of lassies wearing Highland colours. A feature of this scene was a solo by Master Tlioiiios Coleman, who while emerging from the interior of one ot’ the “thistles” gave in excellent voice a military sc- lectlon which greatly delighted the au- dience. Through the kindness of Mr. Hogg, manager of the l’eoplc's Theatre, a number oi' cxccllciit views were thrown on the screen showing the birth-place of_Burns, the interior and exterior of Burns' cottage. "a Scotch H8898" and Old and New Brig 0’Doon -and also photograph of the monument of Burns. The Highland dancing by the young- er people is worthy oi’ special commen- dation, particularly that of Miss Reto MCDUIIB-ld. Wliosedancing in a num- ber of reels was a perfect poem. On the whole the entertainment was 9- Ul°1'0\lKh\Y ¢I1i0yable _one and ranks with the best in the history of the Caledonian Club. under whose auspices it was given.
