At the close of Archbishop Ireland's
speech, August Belmont was introduced.
He said in part:

may be attained. In this idea, the better

the Give federation. It aids to bring to-

who are interested in life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness so by united
effort, 1t may be possible to improve the

PRUDENTIAL CHARMS

Music lovers had a rich treat last
evening in the piano recital of Albert
Prudential at the Opera House. Such
surges of harmony, and ripples of me-
lody, such strength and energy, such
daintiness, such limpid sweetness, is
never heard but from a master, such
as Prudential is.
1t seemed at times as though there
were a witchery in Friedenthals play
ing and there was-the witchery of
marvellous technical skill combined
with musical insight and a musical
soul.
The program opened with Chopin's
Sonata in b. fiat minor, the compost
ton that contains the celebrated Cho-
pin funeral march, and from which the
theme for the melody for more than
one popular song has been rifed. In
the first movement, the energetic move
ment, Prudential made the piano
thunder and roar in a Niagara of mag
nificent tones and qualities. Then
through the scherzo the march and the
finale there was the liquid trill, the
delicate harmony the rich expression,
that only soul and the genius of hard
work can give.
1t was a splendidly arranged pro-
gram, the Chopin Senate being followed
by noctrune in D. fiat, Valse No. 3 in
A fiat and Polonaise in A fiat, all Cho-
pins compositions and varying in their
moods and requirements as that great
master varied. Then there was the

| Flying Dutchman, the Gounod-Liszt
Valse from Faust the storm scene

composition. The other numbers We're

A SANITARY MAP

It is therefore good sanitary map of
the city. AS fast as new buildings are
connected they are colored.
The map shows all through the cen
trail portions of the city. All the big
business buildings are connected. The
red is also very strongly predominant
throughout Chinatown, where sewer
connections have been very extensive
ly required, in consideration of the
insanitary conditions prevailing.
Throughout other portions of the city
there is less red, and up the slopes Of
Punchbowl, which are shown dotted
with hundreds o. houses, there are no
sewer connections shown at all.

Lawn Sprinkling Rates.

Some people do not seem to
understand why the water company
charges one person more than
another for their lawns. The follow
ing is taken from their books of rules:
Sprinkling lawns under special permit
for season only, for so feet or less,
SO per season or part of season; for
each additional lineal foot in excess
of so feet, 10 cents per lineal foot.
Sprinkiing lawns, where water is
used the entire year for domestic
purposes, for each so feet or less,
$3.50; for each additional lineal foot
in excess of so feet, 10 cents per
lineal foot.

Camille.

The production of "Camille" by
the Lillian Mason company was greet
ed by good house, and it deserved
to be for the reason that Miss Mason
possesses talent rarely seen in this
section. In the title role she was su-
perb and was well supported by Adele
Bradford, Sadie Lawson, w. B. Darcy
Thomas Murphy and Clarence Hat
ton.
"Camilie'' is strong play, the
greatest work of the younger Dumas,
a story of masterful woman of the
world reaching out for happiness,
only to be ground down and driven
back by society.
Miss Mason's Interpretation of the
grand but fallen character lies very
near to the popular American accept
ance of Dumas heroine and can not
be witnessed without profit by any
devotee of either drama or literature.
