Poincare of France and Prime Min

1t is to the moral, rather than to
the specific, results of the meeting
of the premiers that both the Temps

valuable. as nations are not exclus-
lively led. as theorists believe. by

expresses the belief that the happiest
result Of the meeting will be re-

ed a well-balanced program, which
was pleasing to all the people, with
out regard to their musical taste.
The opening number, Guard i.
mount" was spirited march, which
commenced soft and low, as il COM
ing from a long distance. gradually
increasing in volume until one could
almost see the band as it passed and

with occasional bursts OF brass,
which gave a startling and pleasing
