There are but one or two actr of any note on the American sta who are older than Mrs. Yeamans and none who have a longer, or more va- ried theatrical career. Born in the Isle of Man of Manx and Welsh parentage, she was taken when a baby to Aus tralia and in that far-off land she made her stage debut. When still quite voung she joined a circus and in the next few years went on a trin around the world with the show.

In 1890 it thus referred to the necessity - of prohibition : "That inasmuch as many are, through the influence of the liquor traffic, hardened to the appeals of the gospel and the arguments to the true interest of their fellow men, or the welfare of their country, it is neces- sary in order to protect the young, the wéak and the unwary from intem- perance and ruin, and to restrain the lawless, to invoke the aid of the law, 20 as to "reduce, and, if possible, ex tinguish these evils by wise legisla- tion."
