However, it is [fully as large as was expected, Rev. J. D. Boyd, the prohibition campaign secretary, considers that the prohibitionists really won the battle in Kingston. He points out that the ballot box stufling and personations gave the antiside fully 100 more votes than they really were entitled to. The prohibition serutineers declare that a peculiar state of things exist far as the ballot box in No. 5 sub: division, St. Lawrence ward, is con- cerned. In that division eighty-iive loss r n 'o votes were against prohibition and twenty-one in favor of it. This means that there were twelve stufied ballots in the box, if the statements of the prohibitionists are correct. e AT THE GRAND. A Splendid Company And a Small House. It occasionally happens that a poor attraction draws a crowded and that a first-class company is ob liged to play to almost vacant seats That is another illustration of the iron of fate, and it occurred again last evening. Charles A. Taylor's **QuecA v r house, S the old-fashioned overland stage coach and many other scenes typical of the wild, free, careless life of the plains and mountains, were decply in teresting. No more beautiful ap propriate scenery could have been wish ed for. It is dificult from such a well balanced company to select any in dividual for special mention. Yet, per: haps, J. L. Ungerer, as Manitona, a renegade Sioux Indian; Albertha Lee. as Rainbow, a half 'breed Sioux girl, and W. A. Bechtel, as Cohen, the He | brew who sold liquor to the Indians, deserve the most eredit. Their | work was clever, especialiv that of Ungerer. Charlotte Severson, had a "difficult role as the bandit queen, but she play ed it well. William Trainor, the gov ernment scout, Ruth Reuck, a weston t great . N or i wild-flower, and George Sharkey, as the hero, lent splendid aid. The play is highly interesting, while the "luce kv" Hebrew furnithed a healthy streak of humor. It is to be' regrett that the play was not more liberally puadt- ronized. St. John's Lodge Officers.
