Under less brilliant weather auspices
but with far G reater dignity and decOrum
than characte riSed the inauguration of the
Italian Exhibition on Saturday last, the
Anglo,Danish "WorId- Show" organised
tor the benefit of the British Home for
1%ncurables, was formally opened by her
Royal Highness the Princess of Wales

charity proposed to be thus assisted was
the first institution Gifts kind in this
try directly patronised by the Princess,
within a few weeks Of her marriage to the
British Heir Apparent; and a display of
Danish artistic and industrial products
could not have been more happily timed,
in aid of so merciful a charity, than in the
year which completes the quarter of a
century during which her Royal Highness
has lived, in her adopted country, a happy
wife and mother, loved and admired by
every class of her future subjects. The
Albert Hall, by reason of it's great size
and convenient proximity to the Exhibit

THE JUBILEE MEETING IN
ST. THOMAS:
NrOm Lightb0urW'S Mail notes.

Last Evening a public meeting was held
at the Apollo Theatre to decide upon what
steps were to be taken to celebrate in a fit
ting matter the approaching Jubilee of
Their Most Gracious Majesties the KING
and QUEEN of Denmark. MIR. Herman
McDougal took the chair, and Mr..
Christopher Daniel acted as Secretary.
The object of the meeting having been
stated by the latter gentleman at the re-
quest OF the chairman, Mr.. S.. Fl. Moron
begged leave to say a few words calling
on the large and respectable assembly to
give, as a preliminary, three cheers for
Their Majesties the KING and QUEEN
After this had been loyalty responded to
with three times three, he proposed His
Honour Judge Jurs as chairman. His
Honour having taken the char, and elect
ell Mr.. S. H Moron as Secretary, in q few
well chosen words referred to the object
for which this assembly had been called,
and to the various forms which the pro.
posed testimonial to Their MajeSties
might assume. Mr. Moron then proposed,
an it was u matter that concerned
the public in general, that a thoroughly
representative executive committee should
be elected. Lawyer J0rgensen, express.
ing dissent to this proposition, moved that
the original committee of seven, which had
been privately determined upon, should
be confirmed, seeing no necessity of in
creaSing the number. After an explana-
ton by Mr. S. H. Moron, that the original
committee was included in the list he had
.he honor of submitting, Mr.. q. l..
Petersen seconded the motion, which upon
being put, was unanimously carried that
of Lawyer J6rgenSen falling to the ground.
