3rd Member
for Frederiksted
Country
Distriet
(M. M. Skeoch)
remarked:
Mr,
Chairman.
It isa
pity
that
the
other
applications pending
were
not given
con-
sideration
and
an
amount
included
in
this
Money Bill for
the
installation
of
the phones applied
for.
The Acting Chairman
(Blackwood)
re-
marked:
Idon’t
know
that
this
is
a
fault
we
can lay
on any
one; if the
ap-
plicants
had
followed
the
matter
up
they certainly
would find
out the
cause
why their phones
were
not installed.
3rd Member for Frederiksted
Country
District
(M. M.
Skeoch)
would
like
to
know why the amount
on the Money Bill
now
before
the
House
cannot
be
il-
-
;
3rd
Member
for
Christiansted
Town
(Alexander)
remarked:
Mr.
Chairman.
The point
raised
by
the
Honorable
2nd
Member for Christiansted
Town is quite
in ovder.
If the Honorable
Government
Secretary
would bring in an amendment
inereasing
the amount,
that would settle
the whole.question.
2nd

remarked:
Mr.
airman.
: gree
with the Honorable 3rd Member
for Christiansted
Town
on
one poiat, but
not on
the other.
It
is not
left
to
the
Government
Secretary
to bring
in
an
amendment.
Why
not
pass
the
Money
2P Ehuis
A NS
Bill which
is
now
before
us
and

remarked:
Mr. Chairman.
I have made

inquiries
and found
that no
applieations
!
have
been
filed
for
the
installation
of
telephones.
'
The
Acting Chairman
(Blackwood)
re-
marked:
As far as I know
verbal appli-
cations
have
been
made.
It
does
not
seem
to
me
necessary
to
increase
the
amount
ca'led
for in this Money Bill.
If
there are
other
apolicants
Money bills
can be introduce
*.

Aninteresting football match
was play-

ed between
the Athletic and Dreadnought
|
clubs
on
the
Parade
Ground
yes-
|
terday
afternoon
and
was
witnessed
i
by a large gathering
of spectators.
Both

clubs
scored
one goal.
It
was remarked
i
that
too
many
non-players
infruded
around
the
goalkeepers
who
ought
to
have
a clear field in
which to operate.
See

the

and
decide whether
this is not an attractive
film worth while
seeing
this
evening.
It
is
highly
re-
commended.

Dear
Sir—lt
appears
to us that
the
bandstand
has
been
converted
into
a
public
play-ground
for children.
Now,
nobody objects
to anyone
going
in there
and sitting
on the benches
in an orderly
manner,
when
the
stand
is
not
being
used for
the
purpose
it
was
built
for,
or in the
event of rain,
but
we object
to
this;
Some
of
tbe
children
are
seen
climbin
on the rails, and walking on the
benches,
which
last
is certainly
very
annoying to the musicians,
who somplain
that several
times dirt has been
found on
the top of the benches,
left tncre
by
the
Children’s
Shoes.
They
also
pull
the
benches
about.,
which gives
unnecessary
work to
the bandmen
1n having
to
put
the benches
back in their places
for
con-
cert
purpose.
If the
bandstand
is
to
be
treated
in
this way,
the
beauty
of
this
excellent
piece of
native
workmanship
will
soon
be spoiled.
This matter
should be
looked
into, as
the bandstand
was built for the
accommodation
of the bands,
so
that
we
could have better music
ete.
We politely
call
the attention of
those
in charge
of
the
children
to this
fact, and
hope that
it won’t be necessary
to write on this sub-
ject again.
Respectfuly,
;
MUSICIANS.

Dear Mr. Editor,—
We
hear
that the
Century
Brass
Band of rrederiksted
is expected
to take
part
in the
Liberty
Day Pacade
of
the
Labor
Union.
We
are
glad
to
learn
this, and take th's opportunity
of asking
Bandmaster
Williams to give the
Chris-
tiansted
public
a concert
on the
Wharf
in the bandstand
Tuesday
evening.
We
will appre®iate
this, moreso
as
we
have
never
had the pleasure
of hearing
these
gentlemen
before.
Hoping
that
we will have the
pleasure
of listening to this Band
of Natives from
the other town.
We are,
Respectfully,
LOVER OF MUSIC.
