SAILORS' FRIEND SOCIETY
A very big audience of men met Mr. I R-. Darroch at the Sailors' Friend Society on Tuesday', wh6n he delivered his popular lecture on "The Navy." The men punctuated the lecturer's remarks with cheers, and showed great appreciation of the views which were ably exhibited by Mr. Milne. The lecture was under the auspices of the Navy League, a society that was anxious, the lecturer said, to help the Sailors' Friend Society. The proceedings wore enhanced by Mesdnmes Good, W..Gate, and P. Morgan, the Misses Trim and Gawler, and Messrs. W. Cato and Chappie, who sang and played.
