THE kNEIsEL QUARTET.

concert by the Kneisel quartet noteworthy. But
there was more than this to give pleasure 10 the
fine audience that filled Mendessohn Hail. Lor

were Mrs Lille Sang Collins. who played the
pianoforte part in the Coreln sonata. and Messrs

LORD DURHAM GETS THE GARTER.

LORD DURHAM GETS THE GARTER.
Lord Durham who has just been created a
knight Of the Garter. is Of the very few peers
who has publicly questioned his own right 10 the
title which he bears For in a speech delivered
some time ago at a public dinner in london he eX-
planned 10 his fellow guests that he Of twin
brothers. and that in his early infancy there was
such a striking resemblance between himself and
his brother Fred the had to put differ
ent colored ribbons around their TO distinguish
them He added that he had always been in doubt as
TO whether he did not owe the eerldom of Durham
his seat in the House of Lords and the possession Of
the family estates, which yield him income of at
least $4,000 q year, to the fond partiaIty of a
monthly nurse. Lord Durham, however, is child
less and separated from his wife, and so at his
death his honors and property viii pass to his twin
brother, Colonel the Hon. Fred Lambton. and, in a
way any mistake or fraud of which the monthly
nurse may have been guilty viii be Strengthened out
and repaired
Lord Durham is a man of very strong convictions,
sn this sense: that when the political party 10
which he belongs adopts a policy of which he does
not approve he at once proceeds TO abandon IT and
e ioin the opposition He started a Liberal.
then seeded. and was Of the organizers Of the
ltberal-JJnionist wing Of the Tory party; while a
few years ago. disappearing, in his capacity of a
great mine owner, Of the employers liability act,
he renowned the TJnionists and Conservatives and
returned 10 the Liberals. Possessed he is OF
vast estates and of great mining industries, with
many thousands of men in his employ and their
families virtually dependent upon his good will, he
commands an immense amount Of political iniiu-
ence Il is for this reason, rather than as re-
ward for any services rendered. that he has now
been nominated by Premier Asquith for the vacant
ribbon Of the Order of the Garter
