An orchestra should not be a con glomerate creation at the last min- ute. It should show a development and training. 'This university has talent for the making of a good" or chestra and if we "bury it" by leav ing it unused, or only to be called forth in emergency cases, the results are going to be disastrous. For such inattention we would deserve sever reprimand. And that same repri- mand (insignificant as it may seem to some, bemause they are entirely disinterested,) will not come upon us in any mild degree. It is sure to come in the disgraceful form of surrender if we cannot draw from tha student body enough proficient mem- bers to rally wround and support our able director in his most able endeavors. We ars being asked again this year, as we have been asked previously, to muke engagements and the most ¥m- portant on¢ of this season to *wnich | here make reference is on an even: ing in December, when we are ex- pected to accompany the Dramatic Club in its efforts to put before the people of Kingston and Queens Uni- versity a production thoroughly worthy of their admiration and pa tronage. It is an event to which all look forward with enthusiastic anticipation. Previous good records of the Dramatic Club have not only warranted for its patrons a treat, but has won f6r Queen's a high es teem for the work she is doing in this department. Its members think it mone too little to contribute eav) day several hours to a most faithful and untiring study of the minutest and most intricate detail of the play to be presented. Are we them, after all that and worry on their part to them on that date, the accompaniment of an orchestra created fromthe mass by simply inviting a few days before hand, this one and that one to "'coni along and help us out" on the oceans jon. Surely this methid is very lax. If we once surrender that place which as a university orchestra we should hold, or, if we go there on that oe i" work promise THE DAILY FLANAGAN UPHOLDS JOHNSON, He Thinks Him a Better Sport Thar White Man, ¥ Toronto, Nov. 14.~Thomas C Flanagan, who was Jack Johnson' Manager before and after the famous puglilist 8 battle at' Reno against Jef. fries, when the colored man o ' the heavyweight championship, writes 4 long article in the Evening Tele gram defending the fighter. He doe not excuse Johnson's moral lapses but says the big black is one of the cleanest, fairest sports, white or col ored, the writer ever met, ' "The fact that Johnson has been straight in the fight game and the fact that he defeatd Jeffries it against him in the eyes of somo, "He could have lain down to Jef- fries and retired independontly rich but he didn't because he was 4 cleaner and better sport than 'thou- sands of whites who hoped to clean up on the public. Jack Johnson fi no saint, 1 am free to admit, but don't forget that he has been literal ly dogged by women m every city of any size he has ever visited--sup- posedly respectable white women-- and Toronto was no exception to the rule. Johnson will be driven out of Chicago, not because he is wors than many others, but because ther is one moral code for whites and an- other for blacks. He will probbly 80 to Europe dnd fight aii comers. Johnson is ptill the greates: pugilist who ever «entered the ring, but-- he is black." S--ami------ UNAFFECTED BY FORTUNE.

(Continued from Page 1.) maintained profound silence The Turks possessed little or no meens of caring for their wounded, and the MServians from thein own accounts, have found the greatest difficult in dealing with casualties. Confirmation came to"dlay both from Constantinople and Athens, of the' fall of Saloniki and its garrison into the hands of the Greeks. Yhe first report of the capture wis based on mere sup position. King George of Greece had received a despatch from Crown Prince Constantine saying the Turkish ecom- mander proposed capitulation I'he crown prince demanded that the Turk- ish army within the city should lay down its arms and that Fort Karabu- run should also surrender. He gave the Turkish commander until Friday morning to eowply with his condi tions. When the people of Gida, where King George had 'his headquarters, heard twenty guns fired on Friday morning amd then silence, the took it for granted that Saloniki bad sur- rendered Kings to Lead Armies. » It said that King Ferdinand, of Julgaria, and probably, also, the olh- er Balkan kings, will lead the army which enters Constantinople and that they will be. accompanied by Dulgar- ian, -Servian, Greek and Montenegrin contangents. While Bulgaria has declared tention not to remain in the capital, even the entrance of vading army is likely to cause a re- vulsion of feeling in Russia Against Bulgaria and possible complications With the arrival of the conquering army sultan mush nece leave for Asia Minor, and his govs erument will probably accompany h her in- Turkish an o- the im.
