THE TRIANGLE
WILL PARADE,

The Association of Exempt Fire.
men will hold a meeting in their
headquarters in Rector street tonight
to make final arrangements for the
parade. At their last meeting it was
decided to buy special caps and red
shirts for parade uniform, but the
committee which had the matter in
charge, said today that they could
not buy red shirt of the kind the
association desired in New York city
The matter will be brought to the
attention of the association tonight
One of the members said today that
since the can not obtain the red
shirts white ones and white caps will
probably be secured
The Exempts are going to hold
open house on the day of the parade
and the committee in charge of re-
freshments say they are going to
tickle the palate of their guests with
steamed clans, chowder and other
articles, which go to make up shore
bake. The main reason for the meet
ing tonight is to perfect arrangements
for entertaining the police and the
band, which marches at the head of
their division.
The famous old triangle, it is said,
will be placed in wagon and sus-
pended from supports so it can be
rung. Two horses will be used to
draw the wagon. This will be in
the rear of the EXempts' division.

The STORY OF
The SCOTTISH
REFORMATION
Pleasing Entertainment Given in
Lecture Room Of the Methodist
Church Last Night Seventy Per-
sons Took Part TO illustrate
the Readlnss..S ..StereOpiicons.

The entertainment, given in the
lecture room of Simpson M. e. church
last night under the auspices of the
Ladies Auxiliary proved to be a de-
clded success. The readings and
scenes related to the Scottish reform
alton and were entitled John Knox
VS.. Mary, Queen of the Scots" 1t
was given by Mrs. H. E. Monroe, of
Washington, D. c., and seventy rep
resentative people of this city.
The lecture was divided into four
parts. In the first part, Mrs. Della
Mayors gave the story OF Queen
Mary's life, while sixteen excellent
views were thrown upon the canvas
by stereOpticon machine. At the
opening of this part an allegorical
procession, entitled, "The Rallying OF
the Clans" was enacted by seventy
persons. During the part two beau
t1ful songs were sung. All were at
tired in the costume of the times.
Part two was the story of John
Knox and Mary Stuart. 1t was told
by Mrs. Mayors, with the aid of
twenty-eight views. During this part
scene, partly dialogue, was en-
acted for the purpose of showing the
religious feeling of the times. The
parts were all taken by men, attired
to represent the Puritans, those of
the Protestant faith, and the students
of Glasgow university, those of
the Catholic faith. Some songs were
introduced after a short dialogue.
Part three was a scene depicting
John Knox at the court of Queen
Mary. 1t was finely rendered. The
costuming was superb, not detail
was lacking and the mammoth stage
presented dazzling appearance, as
Queen Mary, in the person of Mrs.
Bradley w. harrington, entered be-
tween the lines of courtiers and 9TH
ers assembled for the audience about
to be given to John Knox, and took
her place upon the throne. The mu-
sic and songs, rendered in this part
for the pleasure of Queen Mary, are
worthy of much commentator.
The part of John Knox, was taken
by Charles R. Fletcher. His appear
ance was the signal for hearty ap-
plause. He entered to answer the
summons of Queen Mary.
Before the opening of this dial
ogue the facts of history relating to
the scene were told by the reader
with the aid of twenty stereopticon
views.
Twenty more parts were taken up,
that of Queen Mary on the way to
execution and the allegorical proce-
sion entitled, the Triumph Of the
Puritans." The story was concluded
with nineteen views.
The lecture and dialogues are very
instructive, relating, as they do, to
the history of England, Scotland and
France The audience was well
pleased with the event. 1t will be
given again tonight.

since. The manufacturers want two
opening each to be 200 feet wide.
Letters were read from the Nat

what a great inconvenience the pres

used at certain stages of the tide be-
tween a. m. and p. m.
One boat recently had to wait five
hours, from a. m. to 10 a. M. before
it could pass. The result of all this is
that business is about at standstill
The manufacturers fear that when ice
comes the opening will be Blocked COM
