was developed suspicious tendency
toward cold in the head. that necessia-
ted considerable nose blowing. The
recitation in its entire abandon of self
in the demands of the role and COM
pleteness of detail, was one OF the best
amateur efforts we have seen for some
time. AT its close the over charged
feelings of the audience found relief in
a storm Of applause, that would at any
other time and place ended in an encore.
After the contestants. had all been
heard. and pending the decision Of the
judges. came the most unique and TAX
ing part of the programme. in the sing
ing of the two children of Mr.. George
Hyde, Matte and Nellie, who rendered
'.The Sweet Bye and Bye and Good
bye, My Lover. Goodbye" with vim
that sent the house wild. An encore
was enthusiastically demanded, and af-
ter much urging the little ones repeated
their last song. to the the renewed de-
light of the audience.
After the judges had made their
award. Prof. Wood, in a few well-chosen
words, presented the prize TO the win
ner, after which a song from the c. q.
Quintette closed very interesting and
enjoyable evening. Pleasing breaks
were made inthe flow of oratory, during
the evening, by music contrib
uted by scholars and volunteers,
all of which was well re.
ceived. Taken as whole, therefore,
the first contest of the Philomathean So.
ciety was a decided success, and one
which will lead to the wish on the par,
of a large portion Of the audience that
they could be repeated oftener thar
once year.

little behind the prize winner in tn,
general average. As stated by Mr..

well it is hard for the judges to make {
decision" but after weighing every

with a storm of applause, showing tn,
decision to be fully in accord with the
previously formed opinions Of the audi
