As a late marker to his letter lie. has the phrase: "This is the unniversary of Vancouver's tfrcat tire. Floreat Vancouver." He encloses several souvenirs of the big parade held on that day by the suffragettes and goes on to say: "I have just been to the parade of the British "sufferingcats," and 1 must say that 1 am surprised at the enthusiasm shown.

It was estimated that there were 10,0110 in the ranks and this was only a preliminary to the big parade planned for Midsummer Day, and then 1 think it was a conservative estimate. Put in the whole hunch of paradors, gathered from many corners of the earth. 1 could not discern even one who seemed to be impressed with tha importance of the business in hand. The grey old bounder and the gay young Hipper, each conducted Herself in a manner which seemed to say that she regarded the asking of a parliamentary vote for women as a joke. It was truly a great concourse of gigglers, but in my humble opinion, they'll get the vole just the same, as sure as the sun will set tonight, My wife and I are having a grand holiday.

Horticurture, went on the speaker, occupied a most distinguished and large part in the life of most ancient civilisations, and as far batk as the Greeks and Romans, who were delighted in horictural pursuits. He stated that he believed the success of such a society as this depended largely on unity and influence of its members, and that a very principal feature was that it brought together the best and most practicable people for study and discussion on beneficient subjects.

Your association can do murh for the benfit.of your grand city and surroundings in beautifying parks, streets and tree culture, were the words of tho speaker. In conclusion, Mr. Mnrgowan wished the society every success, nnd let the motto ever be, "Unity of action," and it would be found that the best interests of the horticultural work was a most important matter to the neighborhood. Reeve May followed Mr. Maegowan and outlined the practical good that would he sustained from the encouragement of such work.

He said it was not only a great value to the city, but should be equally important and beneficial to the neighborhood, which he hoped would join heartily in furthering this high standard work. President A. Smith spoke in reeoz nizance of the remarks of the former speakers, nnd was followed by Mr. A. Philip, who stated that the credit for the design of the new building was due to a great extent to the KM)7 board, particularly Messrs.

B. J. Cornish, W. L. Keene and A.

Smith, who had devoted a grent deal of time in constructing the plans and details of the building, which should be valuable not only for the society's purpose, hut also for concerts and entertainments. He said that the plans were in hand when the present came into office, but it was found that 11 much larger amount would be required than was anticipated for the completion of the grounds and buildings. As a fact the board had to incur nil obligation of $1'HH on the contract price, for furnishing and other aboslutely necessary work. He RtHted that the city and other hoards had made substantial grnntsand it was hoped that the first of July would draw a good crowd, but counter attractions had reduced the attendance greatly. Mr.

Philip said he wished the board to organize an entertainment committee for the purpose holding monthly musical and other entertainments of like nature.
