In opening, the president stated that the main business would be the elec- tion of officers. He wished to extend thanks to the members of the associa- tion, who had honored him a year ago by placing him at the head of the as- sociation. He felt that it was a great honor to be a conservative, and to be elected president, it was a still great. er honor. There had been some talk, he said, about a "split" in the con- servative party; if there was, so far as he was concerned, he had heen unable to see it. There was every reasan for believing that the conservatives would rally around the candidates and give them a handsomé majority. At the close of his address, Mr. Langwith stated that the meeting. was open for the election of officers. Capt. Esford was the unanimous choice for 'President, and he was handed over the reins of office by the retiring presi- dent. The election of officers resulted 8s follows : President--Capt.

An observer of Weduesday's the 14th and hockey St. must land the championship. The players should workout with their coach, beforehand, a thorough system of playing their games. 'There was no such system in evidence in Wednesday evening's game, The officers of the regiment, who are most eapable fellows in the ordinary routine ol every day business, but who seldom attesd practices, should big contest like the one mentioned is going on. They should realize that the players are the hardest workers, and that if they listen to everybody where would they be? Or how can they work out a mutual line of play with every one having a different scheme to present to the players dur- ing the game and 'at half time? -If the 14th will only act upon these lines they will. have every reason to congratulate themselves later on, and their success will be assured. ---- Made A Fine Showing. Toronto Star: George Richardson was the star of the Kingston team. His speed and clean unselfish work got. the eye <f your real hockey shark. Bernier, too, was in the limelight for his speed and hard shooting. Vanhorn stifiened up the defénce in great style. He checked hard and relentlessly and instituted some grand rushes. "Jim" Richardson, brother of George the Great, who played point for Saints, wasn't strenuous enough. The Kings- ton forwards came romping in sure that Richardson wouldn't "rattle their slats' with a cross cheek, or a hard body bump. This gave them a good deal of surplus confidence once they passed McArthur, and that was St, Georges' undoing, for they hooked three around from behind and into the net, when a real rade point man would have taken the curl out of their hair with stiff body and hard stick work. The Toronto defence could break up a three-man rush, but the loners beat them. . A -- Miss. Dalton's Win. Montreal Gazette.

This is just what the 14th wanted, and the friends are well pleased with the outcome, although Toronto want- ed only one game. Notes On Sport. Rossland sports want to bet $500 on their hockey team against the Nel son combination for the championship of British Columbia. : Eustace Miles will leave London for the United States on March 16th to make an attempt to win the American amateur court tennis championship bonors, as well as to regain the Bri tish championship, which he lost last summer to Jay Gould.

Has Not Yet Taken Action on the Road Building Plant Question --To Ask Government to Ligat Dry Dock Better. The board * of works met yesterday afternoon. Aldermen Graham (chair- man |, Craig, Givens, Nickle and Mec- Lann, were present, : I'be chairman said that he was not prepared to bring in a final report be purchased. A special meeting would likely be called for next Monday ai- teraoon to consider the matter, A communication was received from J. McD. Mowat on behalf of John B. Ferguson, Chatham street, who fell at the cormer of Princess and Wellington streets, on January 5th, and broke his ankle. The matter was referred to ithe city solicitor for report. Charles H. Powell complained that corporation men had shovelled a walk along property of his, before twenty- "four 'hours allowed by by-law had ex- 'pired. The walk was shovelled when he went to clean it. The matter will be adjusted by the board later, when j he charge for the work is made. Regarding the paragraph in Mayor Ross' inaugural address regarding the harbor and government dry dock, Ald, Givens moved that the harbor master prepare for the committee a list of the derelicts in the harbor, and that the mayor be requesfed to communi- cate with the proper government de- partment at Ottawa, as to the better lighting of the dry . dock which was dangerous in its present condition. Mayor Ross directed the attention of the board of works to the unsightly {eoiidition of parts of the harbor and to the lack of light at the dry dock. No action was decided upon ip con- nection with a communication of Prof. D. H. Marshall, regarding a charge for fence removal on Centre street.
