 With roses red for you. The fresh afr flag is iutterinE high Der vale and hill and plain: The world is washed In sweet delight or April sun and rain. The heart Of time iH fresh with> youth.

 The silver seas ashino: The robins witchery fills tho glen. The field larks found his home; The skyiark like a falling star Fades down the golden dome. The fresh air flag is at the peak. The warm wave signal floats: Youth to the tinkling music swinWu Of imyriad bullfrog !throats; Age, like a shadow falls away.

The Western Road Agent. Thrilling
 and Sensational Moving Picture.

From among the many big feature pictures displayed at the Breed theater last evening the one entitled The West ern Road Agent was easily the leader, it being a virile story of the west with thrilling holdups, division of spells, hot prairie chases, with fleet footed bron- chos, and the final roundup of the vil- lains and capture by lassoOing.
 A wonderful picture of rapid motor boats is shown, in a complete picture from launching to the exciting river racing, the marvellous speed attained by the boats shown is almost beyond description.
 Many other fine films are exhibited, both dramatic and comedy, and with the attractive musical numbers makes one Of the best bills yet MT. De- laney sings the pretty rural ballad "There Never Was a Gal Like You" with soprano obligatO by Madam Morelle. who sings later the famous Vocal Staccato Polka as featured by her in the Boston theater during her long engagement there. The tremen- dous demands upon the voice by this composition seem very trifling in her hands and it becomes one of the brightest numbers she has sung here
