Influential Deputation of Temper- ance Advocates Wait Upon the License Commissioner -- The Claims Set Forth -- Petition Presented for Consideration. A large deputation of temperance advocates waited ou the license com- missioners last evening and made their annual appeal for a reduction in - the vumber of licenses. The deputation was the largest and most influential that has ever acdivased the commis soners, Among those present were : Dean Smith, Prof. Shortt, H. A. Cal vin, M.I'., E. C. Mitchell, Alderman King, George Hague, GG. XY. Chown, 0. Chown, Gi. M. Macdonnell, George Mills, Dr. Anglin, Principal Ellis, Dr Asha, John Mclntyre, Rev, Mr. acallum, Mre. Macallum, Mrs. Rogers and others, * ry Robert Crawford, chairman 'of the board of commissioners, welcomed the deputation. He supposed the deputa tion came to offer suggestions, Es the commissioners would consider. The conn re occupied an unenvi position, being wedged between the two factions. Any suggestions, how- ever, toward the amendment of the license law or the enforeement of the same would be considered. Dean Smith, chairman of the deputa tion, exp ained that at a meeting held some time ago, the question of estab T Th Februar Sale lishing a coffee house and reading J room, a* an off set to the saloon, was FURR discussed, A committee was appointed to look into that matter, and another, of which he was chairman, was naméd to wait upon the commissioners and urge a reduction in the number of licenses. He offered a petition to the commissioners, and explained that no effort had been made to push it among the citizens; they had not been anxious for a great number of names, but were ahs people will not wake up to the | satisfied that the sentiment of the pe ulages of this sale until March ne ins ed NT of the aan their : We xi give fiiecial hid voted against the referendum were It | {ition represented the opinion of a vast majority of citizens. Many who favorable to the prayer of the petition to have the number of licenses re with a population of the following petition : hat the number of licenses issued in greater than the best interests of the city require, and that it is ug mat ter of public knowledge that the laws regarding the sale of Tiquor in taverns have been repeatedly violated by li cense holders in the city. "The petitioners, therefore, pray that the license commissioners will take the above matters into their con sideraticn. and make a substantial re duetion in the number of liguor li cenwes issued in the city, having due regard, in so doing to those cases where the law is known to have been violated and also to those houses which have least accommodation for the bona fide travelling public." John Melntyre, K.C., chairman of the temperance party in the recent re ferendum campaign, pointed out that the referendum vote, as far a% the provinée was concerned, showed a de finite feeling in favor of prohibition, or the enforcement of the liquor act of is this vote as far as our municipality De is concerned? The commissioners could > 4 nob ignore the vote cast here in favor of the liquor act of 1902, The vote had +444 been 1.571 nay and 1,479 yea, yielding a majority of ninety two against the measu But. consider that vote in re lation to the petition; a majority of vitizens favor the terme of the peti tion, though they voted against pro hibition, seeming to think that it would not he in the best interests of the province to have prohibition en forced. 'The whole scope of the peti tion is that within the jurisdiction" of the commissioners there is a strong feeling that the number of licenses should be reduced, in which should he included - the superadded force, that those who did not vote for the ait in the recent campaign are in favor of the terms of the petition; some of our best citizens are included in this number, and the commissioners could not ignore the strength of the peti uon SEE The speaker maintained that a ma BEN HAAR jority of citizens favored prohibitign, showing that Portsmouth, which is hevond the jurisdiction of the com missioners, gave a majority of sixty- #ix against the act, which reduced the local majority to twenty-six. Then when it is considered that the sol diers. voted "No," this majority is wipedd out and leaves a majority on the other side. He maintained that vessel the soldier vote represented a floating population, which should not be con sidered with the wish of the tax pay ng citizens However, 'there was a united ing among the citizens fa voring a reduction in the number of licenses; cutting off those places which are not fitted up for: the convenience of the public, and those places noted tor continued violation of the law, Ti { the commissioners would, do this th would be supported by the citizens as a whole, G.

Chown adv ated the upliiting of the moral tone of the city, by re ducing the number of licen cut ting off those places not fitted for the convenience of the travelling publi as well as those places which repeat edly break the law." The temperance people would wait upon the police commissioners and ask to have the law rigidly enforced. In gramting li venses the commissioners should bear in mind those places which repeatedly have broken the law However, he laid more stress upon the nec having those places cut off which deo sity of not comply with the law as regards furnishings and accommodation for the travelling publi It was the in tention of the law that all saloons should be abolished Srincinal Ells pointed out that the deputation was not composed of rabid reformers, hut citizens vepresenting the property owners and tnx paver who asked the commis:ioners to take certatn facts into their consideration and then use their own good md ment My fesuin "Tee The eon missile x had Jdarge powers vested i d i ne intended that th L&hould be © used for the best advan- tage of the city.

Greeted By a Large and Apprecia- comedian and sweet singer, and his talented company, graced the boards of the Grand Opera House last even ing. There was a large and critical audience, whose appreciation of the efforts of the company must have shown their old time friend that he had not been forgotten by Kingstoni- ans. The play was "Chris and Lena,' a production in which Mr. Baker has in the past pléased thousands in this and other lands. The character of "Chris" is a charming one, affording Mr. Baker many channels to show his gentle humor and chances for the display of his rare vocal abilities. The play tells a story that excites one, and is rich in fun as well as pathos. He was ably assisted by John D. Griffin, in the role of whose wit when mixed up with "Chris" dialect, convulsed the audi ence with laughter. Miss Anna Willi ams took the difficult part of 'Lena,' and it may be said she has few equals in her line of comedy work, while she excels as a singer. Miss Madeline Win throp, gas 'Mrs. Lawyer Smart," proved herself to be a talented actress and well d ceived. Miss Nina Bromley, as "Lucy Fuller," has a charming presence and by her natural portraval of her role won many admirers. The scenery was very fine and added greatly to the success of the play. The performance concluded by the recitation of the gallant deeds of the Highland Brigade at the Battle of Bloemfontein, and the "Song of Nations," by Mr. Bak and continuous applause until the cu tain dropped. in the magnificent production of Zaza at the Grand on Wednesday. The play has acain proven the sensation of the season, providing Miss Eugenie Blair, the celebrated emotional star, with a the role peculiarly suited to her.
