President Mowat went into full de- tails concerning i appointment was made. That tion, he said, had a very marked effect, and things were very warm by the other cabi- made 3 net ministers for Sir Frederick Borden for allowing the appointment to go through, when Major Shannon been 'such a bitter opponent of the Laurier ernment "and the militia seemed ludicrous. Why should a that, man be appointed to an important - position under the government when he pd shown himself so utterly op- to t government's policy ? The correspondence showed that it was nigh impossible for a liberal , oven the minister of justice and the minister of trade and com- merce, to get anything from the militia partum for - liberals of ability worth.

Sir Wii Laurier had given the matter very careful consideration. When ask- ed to cancel the Shannon appoint: ment, Sir Wilfrid replied that when he came into power in 1806, he laid down the principle that there. was to be no Jolities in the militia department. ence he could not cancel the ap- tment on mere Jotiticnl grounds, h was brought to his attention, and he realized it fully, that there was at Ottawa a tory clique 'controll the militia affnirs of the country. He said he would see that what thad occurred in the past would not bé repeated in the future. Liberals, hercafter, would get fair play from the militia depart- ment. It was shown that Hon, Mr. Harty, with all the influence he possesses at Ottawa, had to go up agaipst the red-tape of the militia department. Even the niinister of justice had no more influence in having. a liberal of capability appointed than any other member of the house. Minister Of Alilitia Censured. President Mowat then paid his com- pliments to Sir Frederick Borden, ie declared that the militia department was a disgrace to the country. One couldn't go to a place in Ontario that would say' a good word of it. No body of officers in any place A the province had a' good word (6 say of it.. Business men adopted the same attitude, and in view of all this, it was only to be concluded that the militia rtment was pretty rotten. Men who fail in everything else in life are put on the headquarters staff at Ottawa. It would be hpordbie to nd a more incompetent body bi men than © the headquarters' staff at Ottawn. This was a matter of con- cern to the whole country as well as to liberals. © It was the duty of the orm .

He looked upon Sir Wilfrid Laurier as the groatest statesman Canada had ever uted, and he would follow him thr thick and thin, but it was his duty to tell him that there was connected with his government an in- compbtent militia department, and where there was anything bad in it, it was his duty to hand hina knife to cat it out, was absolutely ' and emphatically opposed to the militia Ftment at the present time, and LY BRITISH 2 oy the best man should recéive ap- pointment under the government, ir- allegiance. respective of party . Bat he was certainly to putting into an 'important a man who was utterly o) 0 the policy of the its minister of militia so vigorously. Should such a man be i office who opposes what the liberal party believes to be ths beet for the country ? The militia department, he said, was to be con- demmed for what it had done in this far case. The re-election of Mr. Mowat as pre- ident, was made by standing vote, which was unanimous. Proprietor Pat- rick Daley, of the Frohman, the Bing ston Catholic paper t su) . ed the liberal party through both de- feat and triamph, proposed three cheers for President .

Savee's sweeping charges against the eriticgl movement, and maintained that they rested upon the assumption that that gentleman possessed all the "fects," and other people all the "fancies." On the other side, he repudiated the sugges- tion contained in Dr. Goldwin "nith's misleading phrase "The Millstone of Christianity." " It is not the htera- ture itself, but' old traditions con- cerning it that are outworn. _Proh- lems arising out of the new treat- ment of the literature were indicated and briefly discussed. In éonclusion, Dr. Jordun criticized the statement of the problem recently issued by Dr. Orr, of Glasgow. He argued that as am intellectual quos- tion, it.is first of all literary and his- toriéal in its character, or in other words, we must study carefully the Hebrew literature before we can form a systematic view of the nature and growth of the Hebrew religion. The programme. to-day consisted of a two hours' discussion this morning on ¥The Book 'of Judges," in which Rev. H. T. Wallace, Kingston, Rev. I. N. Beckstedt, Athens, and Rev. M. H.

The foreman of a jury at the Old Bailey, in a counterfeit coining case, called attention to a simple way of detecting base coin.

Fair Sized Audience at the Grand Last Night. There was a cock fight in Kingston, Tuesday night. The police were called, and the birds, together with those who had 1, were escorted to police station. The fight took place at the Grand at the close of the see- ond act in "Girls Will be Girls," and was witnessed by A fair-sized audi- ence. "Girls Will be Girls," a musical farce, was presented hy Al. Leech and his company, and provided fair enter- tainment. Al. Leech took the role of Prof. Ebenezer Dodge, principal of the Dodge Academy around which the piece centres. © He is very fond of cook fighting, and his love for that sport is continually keeping him in hot water, as the sheriff is determined to run down all guilty parties. There are many funny situations. The sheriff is himself placed under arrest far hav- ing the cock fight. After a lone hunt for the birds he finds them hidden in a piano, at the professor's. zcademy, and he endeavors to pry them out, He does so, but is discovered and plae- ed 'under arrest. The birds go a lively round. The school room scené in the second act provided much amusement, although some of the jokes were rath- er old. A spanking machine was in- troduced and was a good feature. Sey- eral of the girls who formed the class misbehaved, and suffered the penalty. The singing was good, the chorus being particularly strong. Al. Leech sang his latest, "He Walked Right In, Turned Around and Walked Right Out Again," and made quite 'a hit with the gallery. The Sprout sisters had many funny things to say, their most popular number being, "How Dy Do." It may not be generally known, but Fleurette De Mar, who appeared nas Madeline Scribner, a teacher of soci- ety, is a Kingstonian, having been born and raised in this city. It is sev- eral years since she lived here. She showed good talent in her part. and sang several selections in splendid voice, 3 EMILY LASCELLE, In "The Man of Her Choice," at. The Grand, on Thursday night "The Bonnie Brier Bush."' The play that has won all hearts, "The Bonnie Brier Bush," will be presented here to-night at the Grand. This delightful story of *'Auld Scot- land," is one that is familiar to and appeals to everybody in its simplicity and charming naturalness. A pleasing fegture of the performance is a quar- tette of male voices, and the rendi tion of "Loch Lomond," "Mary of Argyle," "Annie Laurie," "Ye Banks and Braes," is always a signal for a burst of enthusiasm from the audience. -------- 5 4The Man Of Her Choice." Young or old, rich or poor, every- body is interested in watching a fire and a brave rescue at a fire. It is be- cause of, this well-known fact that Edw. M. Simmonds has written in his successful 'melodramatic sensation of the spason, "The Man of Her Choice," the most perfect clectrically eqiipped fire scena ever attempted 'on any stage and in connection with it a, rescue of a woman slowly. - burning to death, through roaring tongues of seething flames, This scene makes one of the most exciting climaxes von have ever witnessed and is only one of the many thrillers contained in "The Man of Her Choice"" which ecmes to the Grand on Thursday, November Ist.

The men's social given, last night, in the lecture room of Queen street Methodist church was a great suocess, With one exception, no ladies took part in the affair. The programme was _Snocess--The in Evening Was givén by men, in evening dress. The reception committee were also in similar attire. The doors were open at 7:30 p.m. and the. crowd started to come and from then until 8:15 p-m. the doorkeepers and the recep- tion committee were kept busy finding seats and introducing strangers. The programme was one of .the best and full of humor. It, consisted of classic and comic sketches by the men of the congregation. A feature of the evening was the singing of the male quartette; ; it generously responded to encores. A recitation by George Wat- son was highly gratifying. The company was generally agreed that the event had been productive of good feeling, of creating friendships 'and of bringing into church work many young and old men, who had hitherto not been touched on . the so- cial side. Capt. Crawford as convener of the musical committee had gathered about him a fine set whose efforts were exceedingly amusing, particularly in setting forth some of the church needs and taking off some of its officials, After the programme dainty refresh- ments were served by the social com- mittee, assisted by the reception com- mittee, The gathering broke up with the singing of "God -- Save The King" soon after ten o'clock. Miss Singleton was the busy accompanist. Many visitors were in attendance and they were much pleased with the family--spirit manifested by the church people. The men will likely hand over to the Ladies' Aid some $70 or $80 as the result of the gathering. HOW TO FIX IT. The "King Street Breakwater Should Be Protected. A marine man points out that the city should do something very soon towards the repair of the King street bréakwater, If it is allowed to remain in. its present condition, there will be nothing left of it in another two years. He says it is poorly con- structed, and that the city's rubbish should not have been used. to fill in the old banks. What should be done now is for the city to contract for the delivery of a large number of scow loads of stone, and have this dumped in the water, right up against the planking. The depth in 'front of the breakwater is from three to eight feet. The stone thus placed would pro- tect the planking for.all time from the furious waves. At present the water is undermining the construction. Marine Paragraphs. Calvin's steamer India is expected to arrive at Richardsons' to-day with grain from Fort William.
