Sir George E. Foster, min- ister of trade and commerce. The occasion was the fall convo- cation of Queen's University, and the address followed the conferring of the honorary degree of LL.D., upon Sir George by the senate of the uni- versity The degree of LL.D., was also con- ferred upon Dr.-R. 8. Thornton, of Deloraine, Man., president of the Medical Council of Canada. In the absence of the aged chancellor, Sir Sandford Fleming, who was indis- posed and unable to be present, the degrees were bestowed by Principal Cordon who presided over the cere- monies. A spirit patriotism preveiled over the gathering. Students crowded the gallery and sang patrio- tie songs Loud cheers greeted the announcement of Principal Gordon, that the senate had consented to the proposal to have military drill for the students, and that it would be commenced next week The college staff and a large num- bér of prominent citizens occupied Seats on the platform with Principal Gordon, Sir George Foster and Dr. Thornton, Dr. John Watson, viee principal, presented Sir George Fos ter, and Dr. J.
