benefit to Mr.Jos.Vezina, to which we fully agree: \u2014 \u201cIt was with pleasure that we read in the Chronicle, and reproduced by us yesterday, the amiable letter written by Mr, Wiggs in connection with the recent concert given by the Quebec Symphony Society.This homage by an glish-speaking citizen of a French-Cauvadian artist is a very timely one.\u201cMr.Wigge' idea is that Quebecers should join together and tender a benefit concert to Mr.Jos.Verina, the devoted musical director of the Symphony Suciety.He certainly well deserves such a recognition as he las spent so many years of bis talent and energy for art, in a most unassuring manner.\u201cHowever, a magnificent occasion now present itself.lt is well known that Mr.Vezina has set to music one of the finest works, written by our former Provincial Premier, Hon.G.Marchand, \u2018Le Laureat,' is the title of the opera and consists of an incident in a student's life; the scene is laid in Quebec and the personages ara old acquaintances of this city.To this story Nr.Vezina bas given a musical setting, not composed of in coherent airs, as are too uiten heard at the theatre, but a complete work, homogeneous and consistent from overture to the end, For a long time the author has entertained the Éope, with #mall certainty of success,of being able to produce his work amidst the sum tuous surroundings of the

| amd the thunder of guns, the sonor- | ousness of the organ and the blare of the trumpets, was laid to rest with | the long line of his predecessors of the Luuish throne, whose remuins re jose in the side of the chapels in Roskilde's red at fane.\u2018The cuftin lay im the chanoel { ha black gold baldecbin tupported Ly high oil- cers in full dress uniform.The only decoration om it wes a golden iwanch, atribute from the children of Iomarkleaning ageinst the alter rails were floral tributes from forcign monarchs and members of the Danish royal fum- ily.The choir was filled with wem- bers of the chrgy, whose quaint black wns and white ruffs formed a striking background to the blaze of guid laced uniforms of the diplonatic body occupying the corner of the choir.The left of the church wos reserved for the ministers and court aml etate officials, P whilst on the right were the members of the Rikadez.\u2018The galleries and side pisles were filled with ladies.I'he scene was brilliant in the extreme, andra, the Dowager Empress of Russia, the Queen of Demmerk, the Duchess of Cumberland and other social Ilies seated themselves in the front row of ohairs to the left of the coffin.The King emterad soon afterward with Emperor William, in the uniform of a Danish admiral, at hisieft aml the King of Grecre nt bis right, both topping a litth behind him.King Heakon and the other royal person: ages axl the representatives of foreign sovervigne followed.At the catafolgue Dr.Roerdam, Primate of the Duntoh Church, with Dr.Paulli, court chaplain, and Dr.Bondo, Dean of the Cathedral, awaited the Kings.The royal party took seats with the royal Jadies.Dr.Roerdam delivered a course On ihe prinoipel incidents of the King\u2019s reign, dwelling on the t economical and political strides of the country under his _tameficient rule and addressing words to the many hereaved royal person ages throughout Europe.The sermon was followed with a hymn, the royal mourners joining in the singing.The service was beautiful, but as simple as all the former ceremonies held since the King's death.Then to the strains of the funeral march composel hy Hartmann, ight officers carried the coffin from the chancel across to the chapel of Frederick V.As the solemm notes praled forth a salute of 21 guns was fired while simultamounly in the town all flags were hoisted from helt ment to the masthead in bonor of the new King.A short wait ensued while the coffin was being deposited in the Sarcophagus.Thon King Frederick and Queen Louies, followed by Fimperor_ Wiliam and Queen Alexandre and King Haakon end the Dowager Fmpress of Russie, the four walking ohiroast, wed to the chapel, where Pr.Panlli read the buried service in strict privacy and in the presence only of the rovel personnes, the forvign tives and the ministers.Farth being thrice thrown on the coffin, the Lord's Prayer was repoat- ed and the services onneluded with the benediction.A most impreasive oon: clusion wan given

Federation Will Urge Upon the Government, In connection with our article om the pélotage question now under most serious consideration by the Government by the shipping interests and by the Corporation of Pilots itself, it now transpires that the statement in the article appertaining to the settle ment of the maticr is rather preme- ture.The couse as it stands at pre sent is that it is.admitted on all vides that a thorough and exhaustive reorganization of the system must be accomplished.During the past week im.t conferences have been held tween the repreventatives of the in- terewted bodies above referred to and st present all these are conferring with their principals and within the next week another in:portanit meeting will possibly be held in Montreal at which a definite understanding will be arrived at.It is plain thet the Shi [og Foderation, who are most vitally in this great movement, are most desirous of acting in a thoroughly generous and fair manner with the pilots.It is, we telieve, {ar from | their intention to aot in an erbi- | trary manner, and they wish, while preXicting their) own intensity, to aseist in providing ample support for those pilots who have long and faithfully gerved in their vocation.At t amount at the dispositi of the Corporation of Pilote or ihe purpose of providing for their aged and infirm snembers, allows only an amount of about $200 per angum to sach, and it js admitted that this amount is aheolutely insufficient for a man who has pr lv given 30 or 38 years of his life to this occupation.Poseibly therefore the Shipping Federation at their further conlerence may urge on the Government to take over the capital now in the hands of the Corporation of Pilots, augment this sum by other amounts which have bem raised in the pest by the shipping interests of the ports of Montreal and Quebec and by this means provide a capital amount sufficient to allow a competent amount to be given to those pilots who are unfit for service.Then by the Government taking a rigil contro] of \u2018the system, the very best men may be selected, and means teken to encourage young and active mea to avail themselves of this profession and cultivate and foster this idea among these young men, who would make excellent pilots and competent, intellignt navigators of our great waterway.ELECTORS OF MONTCALM WARD To-day your
