JOLLY PIPERS
ARE FEATURE OF
KILTIES BAND

The gentleman that howled with the
Kilties' bagpipe last night at the AL
hambra had the courage of other con-
victions than his own. A good many of
us would have howled had we dared.
Honorary Pipe Major Albert Johnstone
is by no means the least of the Kilties
attractions. He plays the bonny "kist
o whistles" with a tripping gayety
truly infectious and a positively Pade-
rewski execution. His tone, or rather
drone is-but Mr.. Johnstone should be
heard to be believed.
The band itself is in fine fettle. There
are some excellent players among them,
and some beautiful instruments. Will
liam F. Robinson, the leader, shows
himself, as last year, a thoroughly good
workman-and no musician. 1t is
averred of Mr.. Robinson that he takes
off his coat at rehearsals; one wished
he would last night occasionally, even
if it had spoiled the fetching scheme
of tartan, kilt and cairngorm that the
Kilties present. But one is indebted to
the leader for fine, precise drill, a
pure, good tone and excellent intona-
ton. With these the Scotch things go
pretty much themselves, so what mat
ter if the Robinsoned Mascagni be un-
convincing?
The Clan Johnstone troupe, consisting
Of two featly-foote lasses and laddies,
contributes the best reel it has been
my luck to see, and the sword dancing
of Tom Johnstone is a bit of pedal
magic worth going a mile for. Further
variety is furnished by the kilties
choir, a tenor, ]. Coates Lockhart, and
the tallest drum major in the world,
who may be seen at the door.
Concerts will be given by the band
every afternoon and evening Oh tnls
week, Clan Caledonia to be in attend
| ance this evening.

Young Corbett has had such

will lengthen, as the men who bet in
thousands will undoubtedly be behind
the Denver boxer.
Dave Sullivan is not without ad-
mirers. Quite a crowd went over TO
CrolFs Gardens, Alameda, yesterday
to see him in action. Among the spec

ada, discuss Indians; Their Habits,
Their Sports and Their Homes" DR..
Young is a we'll known missionary,
traveller and author, who speaks from
the experience of many years spent
among the Indians of British America.
His travels have taken him from the
Great Lakes to Hudson Bay, the
Rocky Mountains to the Arctic ocean.
His lecture last night dealt in pop
ular fashion with the Indians of the
Northwest, its main theme being the
progress they have made. under the
conditions of modern civilization from
the condition of savages living wholly
by the chase to that of settled culti-
vators of the soil and supporters OF
schools and churches. He gave anus
ing examples of Indian logic and hu-
NOR, of Indian music and of the abb
origines' mental quickness in copying
the costumes and customs of the
whites. The lecture was illustrated
by beautifully colored stereopticon
views. DIR. Young closed his enter
tainment with a few striking views of
