Moss, T. Fellowes and R. H. Johnston. All of them are able soloists on different instruments and will add materially to the strength and of the 146tly band, in which nearly all the musicians were members of the famous Kingston Salvation Army band Mr. Moss was for some time baritone soloist in the crack Kettering Rifles band in Eung- land, which a few years ago #on the Crystal Palace cup if competition open to all bands in the Old Country.

Band- | master H. A. Stares, Mygs. Bac., who | is the leader of this excellent organi- zation, is known far and wide as pro- bably the most accomplished bands- man in Canada. For fifteen years' before becoming attached to the 80th | Mr. Stares was the leader of the 91st | Highlanders Band of Hamilton, and | organist and choir leader in Christ | Church Cathedral in that city. When | Mr. Stares accgpted the leadership | of the 80th alion Band he took | with him twenty-five of his former bandsmen, and these he augmented | with twenty selected musicians, 80 | that his present aggregation is as | good if not better than the 91st] Highlanders Band.

Almost every club in the jwo {leagues hag a few players who have 'i not signed for the coming season, Ottawa Citizen: That suggestion <j that the N. H. A. show its "firmness" by refusing to meet the Pacific Coast champions for the Stanley. Cup, may sound all right to the magnates, but not to the players. A sixty per cent. split on the receipts for three games would certainly be welcomed by Ot- tawas, 'Canadiens, Wanderers or Quebec. This is war time. Honus Wagner on Friday last cele- brated the forty-second anniversary of his birth. The "Flying Dutch- man' of the Pittsburg team is one of the athletic marvels of the age. In all his many years in the National League he has hit below the .300 but twice. He retains practically all of his speed of other years, and his fielding and throwing are still sen- sational. ; . -- Meontrea) Hergld: The "Dirty Ot- tawa" cry, which' used to be a slogan at the Arena every time the Ottawas appeared in Montreal, hag never been «J 1ess deserved than this year Otta- wa"s penalties. atcording to the of- ficial compilation; are considerably outnumbered by the penslties hand- ed out to each of the other four clubs in the 'league. ~ Joseph L.

' Owners of baseball clubs in both , '.| National and American leagues are In the World of Sport rant the expectation thath e will lead the International outfielders. _ "Ted"" Edwards, sporting editor of the Montreal News, picks Canadiens for the N. H. A., championship. He believes their physical strength and splendid string of reserves will pull the "Flying Frenchmen" through on top. : Now that the Western profession- al league have all the players they need they are again looking for peace with the N. H. A. Portland want a trip East to play for the Stanley Cup, and it Is very likely that the N. H. A. will fall for the advan- ces from the West. If peace is de- clared again it will likely 'last until they need some new players in the West and then we will have anoth- er little war. Montreal Gazette:--The weakness of the penalty system' used by the Nationai Hockey Association is best shown by the time spent on the bench by some of the players, and yet the teams are well bunched, showing that the ruling a player oft does pot weaken a team to any great extent, as a fresh, #nd in many cases equally as good a man is permitted to replace the player. The average attendance at the professional hoc- key games this season has been far below the standard of previous years showing & lack of . interest in the sport, although the local teams are battling at the top of the standing for the championship. There have been but one or two. capacity houses this seasop, while in the majority of the others, the amphitheatre has ne- ver been filled. : According to sdvices froth Eng- land, it is likely that the English amateur track and field champion- ship meet will be revived this sum- mer, 'The games were dropped English athletic authorities are of the opinion that conditions afe fav- pionships daring the coming season.

The flat racing season in Italy opened at~Rome last week. There will be more racing there this year than usual, for, owing to the war, the five days' racing formerly held at Naples have been transferred to the Italian capital At the conclusion of the Roman series of meetings there will be forty-three days' racing at Milan, 'commencing in April, The Minister of Agriculture is offering a number of special prizes at each meeting for the purpose of encour- aging breeders of race horses, with a view to the improvement of the lighthorse-breeding industry.
