Those who attended the Society Sic- cus at the Grand Opera House, on Tuesday evening were delightfully sur- Lath r it. One would not credit that J amateurs could put on such a performance, and few would believe that the city has so many young ben who are quits finished artists in so | many different lines. | "The first scene was called "Dixie Days," oncoing: with some good old- {timo southern coon songs that' wero | delightful. Some new and original jokes were cracked by the clever end men, and then a fow more songs were rendered. © After this came the pro- r, and it contained a vaudeville bill that would do any house in Canada credit. On the pro- gramme no names were -- but it is only fair that the people should kuow who ono or two of the star perform- ors were, Wilsoh and West wego first on the |spen bill with an up-to-date specialty, filled | with good, live dope, many good ones being dealt out. 'Saw Dow," the Ja- panese strong man followed, and he was really very glever. He is without doubt a vefy powerful man, and is of splendid physique. The main acts during the picce weve {a high wire turn, acrobats and the | LiMliputinn family. The first act was put on by Miaco, who, in private life, is George Bews, one of Kingston's best kriown allround athletes and whe carried a great, surprise. The acts that Mr. Bews does on the high wire wore never oxcellad by any performer in this city. He goes over the wire, doing all his tricks with the utmost grace and case. His act would make good on any circuit. As acrobats, Thompgon and Gibson have it over any other' in overy way. J. J. Thompson is well known in the city and his work is equally well: known. Mr. Gibson is a student, and has nol heen seen so much, but he id an artist of high crder. During their performance, there was nothing that overyone in the house did not follow with interest. Mr. Thompson = also has four youngsters, the McBroom Bros., Parnum and Cook, who are good acrobats, and with their director. do some fine work. Their act greatly enjoyed. The Society Sircus has also one one - of the best na- seen here in some makes one of the best clowns "'om tho road," His performance was a greal surprise to the large audience. . He was ably assisted by Lolo, another clever fun maker, Many other fine acts, including Prof. Light, in his marvelously illuminated club act, were well received and re ceived great applause.

It is supposed that = the trouble Jarose by contact between the electric | wire and a Jarge tree through which it |passed. The manager said that the | light department should have author- lity = to do any tree trimming it | deems necessary for the sale conduet tof its wires. At present, trees could not be touched by the department. (Ald. Rignoy said he. certainly thought that the city council wonld give the department authority to. cut trees where danger existed. The department 'was carrying deadly wires through the city and it should not be hamper- 'ed in any way in securing a safe pas- sage. The commitiee gave the solicitor certain instructions in regard to the i Bostridge case. So hw a preliminary examination has taken place. | At the request of the chairman, the city: solicitor: gave his opinion as to the liability of "KM." Campbell to the | city in regard to the defective gas tank. He said that aiter going care fully into the question, he had come, { to: the' egnclusion that Mr. Campbell twas liable, The « solicitor. = recommended that j Mleps be taken to repair or replace | the tank, reserving the right: of ac: tion against Mr. Campbell, and that r. Campbell be supplied with. a re: port, of Expert Melkay, and also in: formed that ' the city was going. to hold him responsible. | "Ald. Rigney wanted to know if the i committee should not give Mr. Camp: ! bell. a chance to make the tank good, Jnpteadd, of proceeding itself to do so. The. solicitor said that could be one; but 'the city should not , yive ei ha hand | to. make some taw- hig Sepa. If he is given such a | chance, ho: should he notified that the repairs are to be subject to the satis faction of the city's expert. The solicitor was instructed to. {draw out a statement of the matter for submission . to the city counil. The chairman pointed out that it wouldnt do to delay too long, for the tank should' be thorodghly complete before next November. A reasonable time will be given Mr. Campbell if he wishes to give the city a satisfac. tory tank. On the petition of the British Whig Publishing company for a lower. rate, no action was recommended.
