ACTUAL REHEARSALS WILL
BEGIN THURSDAY EVENING.

new 0ratorIO to be studiod-It is ''The
PrOdIEaI Son" by George Vincent
Examination OF Applicants for Mem
bershtp la the Union Shows Much
Iatersst tn Work.
The Peoples Choral union will begin
its winters work next Thursday even
ing at s O'Clock in Masonic hall. 1t is
proposed to, study a very interesting
new oratorio, entitled THE Prodigal
Son" by George Vincent, which will
be the main work undertaken this sea-
son. It IL full of beautiful harmonies,
and, while not very difficult, is most
interesting to singers of experience.
After the annual meeting of the union
last Thursday evening corps of four
teen persons was kept busy until 1l:3O
o'clock examining the voices of appli-
cants. The test for the old members
was, in most cases. merely nominal,
tanning the range of the voices. The
trial in every case is extremely simple,
and need be feared by no one who has
a moderate voice.
It is desired to call particular atten-
ton to the sight-reading classes, which
will begin on Tuesday evening, Novem-
Der Is, at 7:30 o'clock for beginners and
$3.50 for the advanced class, in Steinert
hall, TIT Chapel street. Examination
for these classes, as we'll as for the
union, will be held on Wednesday even
ing next in Masonic hall, from 6:45 to
$50 o'clock: also on Thursday even
ing at 1890. The membership tickets
will also be sold on those evenings. The
management is greatly to be congratu-
lated on having secured the services OF
SO thorough musician and experienced
teacher as NJ E. Brown, and it is con-
fidentiy expected that fine work in the
classes will be accomplished this sea
son, making an admirable feeder to the
union.

This is the season when the woman
who knows the best remedies for Group
Is in demand in every neighborhood.
One of the most terrible things in the
world is to be awakened in the middle
of the night by whoop from one of the
children. The Group remedies are al
most as sure to be lost, in case of Group.
as a revolver is sure to be lost In case
of burglars. There used to be an old
fashioned remedy for Group, known as
hive syrup and tolu. but most modern
mothers say that Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is better and does not cost so
much. 1t causes the patient to throw
up the phlegm" quicker. and gives re-
lief in shorter time. Give this rem
edy as soon as the croupy cough appears
and it will prevent the attack. 1t never
fails and Is pleasant and safe to take.

One of the most common ways of
betting in China is with oranges. This
goes on at the fruit stalls and also in
private houses. The bet is on the
number of seeds in an orange. Some.
times it is as to whether the number
is odd or even, and at others as to the
exact number of seeds the orange con-
tains. If at a fruit stand, the dealer
will pay the lucky guesser FIVE times
his bet, but the loser must pay the val
ue of the orange and also fve times
as much as he has wagered.
Quail fighting is done on a table
with a little fence about its edge, The
fighting quails have been starved for
some time. AS they are put into the
pen few grains of rice or wheat are
laid before them, and they at once be-
gin to fight over them. They are
trained for the purpose, and a good
fighter is worth 500 and upward.
II is the same with the crickets.

combat with straws. The Chinese un-
derstand how to feed and groom the
crickets for the fray. They give
them honey, boiled chestnuts and
boiled rice and certain kinds of fish.
They do not allow anyone to smoke
near them, for they think that tobac-
co Injuries them. If the crickets grow
sick they feed them upon mosquitoes
and red ants.
In a cricket fight the crickets are
weighed before they are put in the
ring. They are matched as to size
and color. The betting is done just
as carefully as at an English horse
race. The stakes are held by a COM
mittee, which deducts a certain per
.centage for those who own the fight

gamblers grow excited. They scream

So far as government borrowings
are an indication, says the New York
Evening Post, the annual cost Of the
Boer war TO Great Britain has been
nearly double that Of the wars against
Napoleon, 100 years ago. In the
period 1792-1802, when England was
lighting necessarily In almost every
corner Of the globe, and was In addi-
ton subsidizing half dozen continen-
tai states, the principal of the British
debt increased 9297, $3.50 5S7-an aver
age annual increase of e29, 9,7S9, 900.
Between 1902 and 1915, a period which
covered the Spanish campaign, the
American war and Waterloo. the debt
increased G323, 1886, ,04l-an annual av-
erage OF R24,S75, 900.

deliberate, and the subject for dis
cussion was laid before the meeting.
At first profound silence reigned,
Finally one of the members of the
council rose and said he had heard OF
the possibility of replacing human
teeth by artificial ones; adding. that
to the best of his belief there was a
man in Breslau who undertook to do
this. He said he could not vouch for
the truth OF what he had heard, but
he really had been told that this was
the case! A long discussion ensued,
with the result that the watchman
was told to so to Breslau to get new
set of teeth. In due course the old
man returned to the scene of his du-
ties provided with the needful. The
following night the burgermeister sat
up to hear the result. To his astonish-
ment there was no sound of the whis.
tie at 10 o'clock, nor at IL, nor even
at midnight! The next morning he
summoned the watchman, to whom he
expressed his indignation. "You have
got your teeth now" he said; why
do you not whistle as before? In
voice of humility the old chap replied:
YES! have got new set Of teeth,
but the doctor told me was to put
them in water overnight"

Neither does the above list include
loans issued by the exchequer for
other than war purposes
1t will appear, therefore, that, dis
regarding the amount raised by in
creased taxation In this war or In the
Napoleonic contest, the Boer war has
cost the British government an aver
age OF G5700O000 per annum in loans,
against an average annual cost OF

in the Napoleonic contest.
The much greater cost OF supplies.
ammunition. transportation and equip

the fact that there have been and are
still more British soldiers under arms
in South Africa than were commanded
by Wellington In 1915, sufficiently ac-

however, be remembered that the Brit
