Cheer.

The answer to that famous old
conundrum. What makes more NOISE
than a pig under a gate" as every
one knows. is two pigs Should the
question arise what makes more noise
than two pigs the answer surely must
be a Scotch bagpipe. And when there
are several pipers and drummers, a
whole Scottish band, in fact making
music g? at once, the noise WOULD
cause even a boilermaker to hold his
ears. unless he was Scotch. Then me
sounds emitted by the instruments OF
the Highlands would be most pleasing.
But il takes a Scot TO appreciate them.
All that is by way Of explanation Of
the hubbub that arose from the Amerl-
can Line pier Yesterday morning, wncn
the steamer ST. Paul locked. Among
the passengers was Miss Bessie Abott
the operate singer. and her husband,
W. story. brother Of Julian story. the
author on hand TO meet them were
a score or more members Of a Scot
fish band. attired in gay Highland
plaid and kits. and many friends. Miss
Abott will sing the leading role in the
De Koven opera Company's revival Of
Rob Roy" at the Liberty Theatre
next month.
As the liner was nosed into the dock
by tugs the screeChes and screams Of
their whistles were drowned by the
pipes as the bra Highland ladies, with
their kits futtering and tartans fly

the strains Of The Campbels Are

When the gangplank was thrown out
the pipers changed their tune to Mrs.
