SAILORS' FRIEND SOCIETY

The Sailors' Friend Society's Institute was well filled by men from ships in port on the occasion of Mr. F. F. Thomas's concert. The items, of the performers i-aised a' storm of applause, and encores were the order of the evening. The artist's were: Mrs. Hi S. Wood, Miss. E. Churchill, and Messrs. H. S. Wood, Goudie, W. W. Crawford, Reynolds, Seely, Everoth, and Durey. Mr. Thomas was at the piano. ' Mr. Moore, Missioner, was in the chair. He spoke on "Drift," and nine men signed the pledge. Tho competition produced some very funny tit-bits. The men themselves were responsible for the vote of thanks, that was novel, indeed.
