ROUND THE THEATRES

... . When thinking of The Gay Parisienne the thought of Miss Ada Reeve keeps coining to mind. She is so delightfully full of life and fun that it is difficult to believe that she can take an interest in pay-day. Few recruits from the halls are so quick as she in catching the lone of the stage, even her singing-voice has grown less brassy. If everything had been as gay as she, I could write with ...

ART NOTES

... . The National Portrait Gallery, which was opened to the public on Good Friday, may be said to have fully satisfied expectation. It may be objected that the various rooms in which the Gallery's treasures are preserved are somewhat narrow and cramped, but it is scarcely possible to commend too highly the method by which the various portraits have been arranged in those rooms, and to ...

SOCIETY ON WHEELS

... SOCIETY 0 N WHEELS. While travelling abroad lately I carefully noticed the cycles and cyclists in various towns. Though in almost every part of Northern America cycling is growing in popularity, in the Western States it has increased more rapidly than in the Eastern, owing, probably, to the fact that the climate of Nebraska, of Kansas, of Utah, of Colorado, and of California, for instance, is ...

THE WORLD OF SPORT

... . FOOTBALL. The accompanying portrait is of Mr. H. W. Moffatt, a member of the London Caledonian Football Club. Two years ago this young gentleman was practically unknown, so that his immense popularity redounds all the more to his credit.

Grand Trunks no longer occupy their old position as a speculative favourite, but the public is so heavily interested in the various securities of the road that the result of the new Board's management is being awaited with great anxiety, for it is a case of a race against bankruptcy.
