DAY CONGRATULATIONS SENT
BY CABLE TO VICTORIA
At the second annual dinner Of the Canadian So
cotv OF New-York which held at the Hotel
Marlborough last evening. great wave OF enthn-
siasm was started by the strains OF the melody to
which the words Of America" and God Save
the Queen" are both sung. 1t happened In the
natural course Of things that while many Of those
present were singing God Save the Queen" the
remainder were singing America" and the key
note of an Anglo-American demonstration was thus
struck.
The greatest enthusiasm prevailed during the
singing Of The Star Spansed Banner" and 1t
would have been difficult to decide whether the az
fair was n feast IN honor Of the Queens birthday
or a tribute Of good will to the American people
The din.ng-room was decorated with many flags,
and II was noteworthy that only one Engnsh pam
ner decorated the walls. this being surmounted by
the Canadian coat-of- arms.
The menu was Anglo-Amercan also. not only IN
the crossed flags which were its most conspicuous
edornment but IN The .urses. which included
Manila soup Dewey punch. English srloln. Anglo
American salad. Victoria ice cream and Canadian
cheese.
