HEARTY PRAISE FOR AN ORCHESTRA

Sir was q delighted listener on Tuesday evening
at the concert given Ch.ckerng Hall by Mrs Curtiss
orchestra for the benefit OF Of local charities
1t is so seldom that this excellent band Of amateurs,
composed OF men, women and children, appear In

timely and appropriate. All their rectations were
admirably played and the effects produced by their
conductor compared more than favorably with the
work OF our well-knOwn professional orchcstras L

NOT INVITED AS A LAYMAN.

TO the Editor Of The TIL III c.
Sir: was The first Of the nOn-Epscopal clergy
men who made addresses in st. Georges Church tAlS
Lenten season. This morning read Dr. Rahsiod
letter to your paper. and am somewhat surprised al
It's contents. Certainly when 1 consented to preach
in St. Georges it was with the understanding That
appeared there as an ordained clergyman, and not as
a layman. The letter OF invitation was addressed 10
me as Reverend end Dear Slr.' and therefore gave
me TO understand that IL was as a clergyman that
was invited to ofhclate. When reached the vestry
one of the clergy of the church forget who 1t was
asked me II l would gown, to which l Tepnen
Certainly 1 do not know whether it Is customary
for laymcn to be offered gowns in the Episcopal
Church, but my impression to the contrary
accepted the gown because l regarded myself as or
daincd as well rs the clergy OF the church VINO had
invited me under the title Of Reverend ard Dear SIR
otherwise would not have accepted the invitation TO
speak where, by accepting it, should have put any
implied stigma on the council that ordained me- II
DR.. Ransford meant that should ohcate as a LAY
man. he should have said In his letter OF lnVlatO
and then could have governed myself accoruihgS ;
and should not have addressed me as he did, ana tlen
when his brethren begin to find fault with inn, eA-
plain matters as he does In the etter to YOU honor
and love the Doctor but feel that his present course
Is hardly consistent for either he was not frank Win
those whom he invited or he Is afraid to meet the
consequences OF his action. - ,, ,r,,,,-,r, -t

PRETTY rough snake story.

The following Is a good snake story
which has just been carried TO the Uni.
ted States in the japanese paper called
the Kokkai: 1t says that on the 18th
of July man called Neemura Tahichi.
twenty-five years OF age. went out with
his wife Otora, who was fOrty-eiSht
years OF age, to pursue his usual avoca'
ton OF tree cutting in KOshitamura,
province Of Lamba. Tho husband and
wife parted at a place called Mastu
Yuma. Shortly afterward. while en-
gagged in telling d tree, Tahicbi thought
he heard his wife cry out. Running to
the place he was Mortified to find that u
huge snake, described as being three
feet in circumference, had OtOra's head
in its mouth and was engaged in swal-
lowing her, despite her struggles.
Tahichi ran off to the hamlet and sum-
moned seven or eight of his nelghbors,
who when they reached the scene Of the
catastrophe found that the snake had
swallowed the woman as far as her feet,
and was slowly making its way 70 lis
home. They we're too much terrified
TO touch Il, and It finally affected It's
escape unmolested. The province oi
Lamba is one OF the most desolate In
Japan. and monster reptiles and wild
animals are frequently killed there.
