Hugh Ped- ley of Montreal, Addressed the Students Afterwards. The school of the fine arts in Paris has nothing over Queen's stu- dents now in regard to street exhibi- tions, as was shown Saturday might in the splendid turn-out by which "the students annually give vent to their superfluous energy. The night was clear and crisp, well suited for a time to forget exams, studies and the severer side of college life and to enter into the Spirit of reviving that harmless but enjoyable-to-al} custom of letting the citizens of Kingston know that a body of young men were in their midst who were on the point' of forgetting their youthful follies and preparing to take their place im the world. Towards seven o'clock people on the streets could have observed strangely bedecked and ungainly ladies accompanied by military men, colored gentlemen and so forth, mak- ing their way towards the college grounds amg there a noise of ham- mering and bustle could have been heard amidét the flaming torches and numerous drays. Around the medi- cal building, ghostly figures were tying and painting in a very un- ghostly fashion, around the scienc. building, troops were drilling and as engines were echoing, while the arts building was a regular inferno, with red-dressed and behorned Me- phistopholes. At a little after eight o'clock, all preparations were made and Grand- Marshal McCannel of Science '14, mounted on a gallant livery hack horse, headed the van out of th» college grounds. First came the graduating medical students in cabs, as 8 the custom, followed by a single horse and wagon, containing a typical farmer and his spouse, while over the horse's head, was a TIME amd QUALITY Within a compara- tively short time J.S.A.

Next came Medicine '14's float, This was a representation of the old household picture "The Doc- tor' and showed a little cabin mn which a small boy lay im bed while a very professional looking doctor, with a fine Van Dyke beard was fueling his pulse, and looking seri- ous. In the background stood the father and mother, 4 Medicine "15, supplied the deficiency by an impromptu kazoo organization which, coming after the sad picture of the doctor and his patient, dis- pelled the gloom by vafious rag- time tunes and also heralded the sented an operation table with nurses in the approved antiseptic patient. Then came Med. '16's mas: terpiece, being a burlesque on the renowned Dr. Friedman of serum fame. The doctor was there with his turtle and &ssistants, having grown a beard since visiting Ameri- ca, while beautiful ladies and pallid men, apparently in the 'last stages of tuberculosis, were brought up on the table and by a single injection. outdid the wildest dreams of the famous doctor, and were immediate ly restored to fullest health and spirits, Medicine 17 Wrought up the rear of the medical contingent with an operating theatre in which a fair lady was being operated upon and a regi- ment of skaleton-faced. ghosts fol- lowed. « The floats of Arts were all of a jocutar spirit. Arts '14, the semior year, despising cabs, represented the more than famous Kingston Opera House. There was supposed to he a matinee of "The Comedy of Terrors," as shown by signs and opératic pho- tos and a group of devils, proclaiming by a large sign to he "Hoodlum Stu- dents," were vigorously attacking the theatre, whilst a squad of police, long and lean, short 'and thick, were re- pulsing * them, urged on by a fine representation of the local theatre manager, who, with his big cigar in his mouth, was at one time seriously ,threatenéd by the atbackers and again graciously acknowledging the cheers for is Hemefit from the "Queens isi who followed with toy drums and instruments. A beau- | tiful lady in a mantilla fainted re 'gularly at each attack, and in the |intervals was seem dancing on the road with a tall policeman. Following this float was a venerable i yellow-dressed reporter, labelled 103 years old, who with the assistance of h , carrying his lantern, inter- viewed the on-lookers concerning the disgraceful doings. Next came the famous "Oracle of Delphi®™ sitting before the sacrificial fire and sur- irounded by priests proclaiming the future and the results of the coming Alma Mater elections. The float was prettily decorated with an awn- ing, bunting, and the names of Arts' candidates for the A.M.S. While the remainder of the year came behind clad in the many-colored garments of ancient Greece. Arts '16 were not behind the others in their representation of a Kingston dining hall. The float contained 'a table with a landlady and a group of dimers gathered around the table, conspicuous for its motto, ' contrary banner that picting various weak\points in King- ston's Street Railway service, the K. & P., the theatre, and a brief des- cription of Kingston, containing a fiery red hox containing a devil with a cast-iron. tail. The men of solence brought up the rear and where quantity was lacking quality was ° evident. . Science 'l4 spent the last few days hefore the self-propelling aitship on wheels but like many. aer- ial inventions it would not work, out of the parade. Science a very movel float in the shape of a dreadnought called the the form of a modern warship with guns and so-forth carried by the members of the year inside. ' Science '15 turnout was of a military nature, with red coats of all shapes, tomato-cans for the military pill box hat and chic little moustaches, they announced. themselves as reprevent: atives from the R.M.C. They also had a float representing several soldiers around a camp-fire, and entitled, mili- tary life. Besides the soldiers a num- ber were disguised as members of the police force, swinging their olubs and shouting orders.

Carney, the well-known evangelist, who is as- sisting Richard Irving, in the gospel meetings, which are being held dn Brock street hall. Mr. Carney took as his text John v, 24: "Venily, Ver- ily, I say unto you, he that heareth my word, and believeth on Him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation, but is passed from death' unto life." The speaker said that this verse was the means of bestowing more bless- ing upon the people than any other verse in the Scriptures. It had been frequently referred to by Charles Hadley Spurgeon, one of the world's greatest evangelists,, and also by Dwight L. Moody. Mr. Carney is a very fluent speaker and is free and eacy in his expression. Both speak- ers will continue holding meetings every night this week. ° P------------ Late Alexander] Macdonald.
