Clan Mcleod No ST. Order of Scottish
Clans gave their annual spring con-
cert and dance last night and despite
the stormy weather the hall was more
than comfortably filled by the members
very fine. In fact, it was one of the
best of the kind ever given under the
society's auspices.
Chief w. l.. Andrew occupied the
chair and was accompanied to the plat
form by Tanist r. C. Bruce and Clans
man John Henderson. The chief in
few we'll chosen and happy remarks
welcomed the visitors and addressed
the audience briefly on the good which
| the lodge and the order had done since
its formation nine years ago,
The program was opened by selec-
ton on the piano by Misses Davidson
and Common. Next Miss Nellie Mel
llle, who, although only little, girl of
seven years, gave a characteristic rem
dering of the song TIN Out With Mary

hearty encore by singing Over the Gar
den Wall"

fine style THE Fairy Jane"

a dramatic recitation Of the Execution

round of applause for their selections

dered, closed the first part of the pro-
gram.
| The second part was opened by Mas
ter William Rowan singing James on
the Stormy Sea- Master Rowan, al
though quite a lad, is the possessor of a
very fine, clear voice, which should with
care and attention gain for him in the
future a name as soloist. He had to
respond to several encores and delight
ed the audience by his singing of will
lies Gaun to Melville Castle" and I'll
be True to My Honey"
Miss Florence Macdonald, daughter Of
the popular and genial chairman of the
republican town committee, who is
studying elocution under Miss Minnie

of 1t showed that she Is indeed a born
artist. She responded to a hearty en-
core by giving The Courtship of Dea-

Forgive" was well rendered and de-
served the hearty applause it received.
A recitation by Miss Henderson was
next given and well received.
Mr.. Dicks inpersonation of the act
ors the dudes, the miners and the ine-
briates and his recital Of the Charge of
the Light Brigade" We're cleverly done
and kept the audience in roars of laugh
ter during the recital.
THE White Squall'' by John Morton
and duet, THE Gypsy Countess" by
Miss Van Der Mullen, followed by Aud
Lang Syne," brought n very enjoyable
program to a finish.
