A Rural Tournamen. Of song.

For two days the little town of Kendall
was given mp TO holiday life.-a holiday
not on the ordinary lines of merrymak-
ing, but whose motif was the carrying
out Of musical ideal, and whose raison
d'etre was genuine enthusiasm and q
strenuous devotion TO art. The holiday
had been well earned. During long win
ter evenings the church and school choirs
Of the villages Of Westmoreland and of
the contiguous parts Of Lancashire and
Yorkshire had worked with thorough
ness and energy beyond all praise with
these two days In view. To take part
and II possible to excel In these compe-
titions has every year fred the conduct
ors OF these village bands to fresh exer.
tions. till now 1t may truly DO said that
no rural district in England can supply
q pendant TO this unique musical meet
ing. The competitions this year, as last,
extended over two days. The first day
was chiefly dedicated to soloist perform
ers and TO the contests between the junior
choirs.
The delight and enthusiasm with
which the children go through their per-
formance form a charming and pictur-
esque feature Of the festival. The DIFF
ferent villages are distinguished by col
ored badges and rosettes, distinction
In which the children take evident pleas
ure. In many cases choir is conducted
by a lady belonging TO the neighborhood,
to whom the children turn with rapt
attention, their eager faces and keen eyes
hanging on each twist Of her wrist and
stroke of her baton. This year 10 junior
choirs entered the lists, and the really
admirable work that they did both In
singing and sight reading gives promise
for great results In the future, when
members Of these junior cboirs will be-
come the nucleus Of larger village and
choral eties.-London Saturday Re

A,I,tsrnationaI Coin.

When everybody is fretting about let
tsrs Of credit and all the other make
shifts TO avoid penury in a foreign land,
II occurs to the mind unskilled In ques-
tions OF finance TO wonder why we can
not have one single international coin
which would be good wherever It'll spent.
An entire international currency is boon
reserved for our grandchildren, but a
single gold coin Of about the value, say
Of $3.50, would be an immense convey
fence 10 travellers. A moderate sum In
such coins would not be burdensome,
and before leaving each country the ma
tional currency could be exchanged into
them at the hotel Office or tho nearest
shop without any fuss and feathers what
ever. MAtiples Of such coin, TO the
extent Of hundred or moro, would be
easily portable, and fractions Of II would
not DO large enough TO cause serious en-
barrassment TO most travellers. The
amount Of time and trouble which SIN
gle international coin would save 10 al

The large and cultured audience which

the matter Of patronizing the stage, can
properly estimate. 1t also proved that

merely been humbugged so often by FLAIR
ing handbills and gaudy posters that
they have become prejudiced against the
entire profession and ceased to expect
anything worth seeing to stop in the
town.
But those who were out last night were
not disappointed.
The press potices and reports which
had preceded him, had led them to ex-
pect in the young tragedian an actor of
real merit, such as would commend itself
to any audience and which would stand
the rigid analysis of honest criticism
But he had not been five minutes before
them till they were satisfied that what
had been said was nothing more than q
just estimate OF true genius-a genius
which gave promise of much greater
things.
