The two latest bank additions at the Kingston penitentiary, Phillips and Duncan, are resigned to their new duties and carry themselves with a certain bravado which in iteell dis tinguishes them from other conviets. Phillips is hard at work on the bench with a needle and thread, and by the end of his five years may come forth from the penitentiary with a new trade, join the Tailors' Union and become a full fledged men's tailor. Duncan's duties have not been assigned as yet, but his strong physique fits him for a more strenuous life, and he may go to the blacksmith shop or the stone pile. Coming On April 10th.

There is a good hearty laugh every minute, and the fun never ends until the final drop of the curtain. James Sullivan, who appeared as Frank Peary, and Charles C.

Says Englishman in Hotel - Gave A Bicyclist Fined. The 'fine wegther has a marked el fect upon the attendance at the police court. The court room was crowded this morning, when the case of Michael Devine, - adjourned from yesterday, eame before Magistrate Farrell. Devine was arrested on a charge of being drunk and disorderly, and when arraigned this morning he had anoth- er charge to face--that of carrying a pair of steel knuckles. It will be re membered that the knuckles were found in 'his possession when placed undér arrest early Tuesday morning, by Constable Thomas Mullinger. T. J. Rigney, appeared on behalf of the prisoner, and stated that while it would be admitted that the prisoner had knuckles in his possession, it would also be shown that the prison- er only had them in his possession for about an hour belore his arrest. Dévine went into the Hox, aml swore that he had been given the knuckles by an Englishman, at the Iroquois hotel, just a short time be- fore he was arrested. He further stat- ed that he had attended the dance at the City Hall Monday night, and had afterwards gone to the Iroquois Hot. el. Devine admitted that he had been drinking in the bar of the Iroquois Hotel, at two o'clock Tuesday morn- ing. Magistrate Farrell fined the prisoner $2 and costs, or fifteen days on the drunk and disorderly charge, and on the other charge--that of carrying a pair of steel knuckles, remanded him for a week, The police have stdrted their cru- sade against those who ride their bicycles on the sidewalk. The firgt case of this kind came before the court this morning, when John Kelly walked the carpet. He was accused of riding his -bieyole on the sidewalk on Chatham street. Constable Thomas Mullinger was the officer behind the ease. Kelly told the 'magistrate that he could not remember whether he had used the sidewalk, or not, but the evidence of the police constable went to show that he had violated the city by-law, and the magistrate taxed him $1 and costs, "There's lots of people fiding their wheels on the sidewalk," said Kelly, "But you are the unlucky one," re marked the magistrate. "You just let us know who is riding on the walks." "I would not want to do that," said Kelly, as he paid his fine. An aged woman arrested last night, in an alleyway on King street, hy Constable Mullinger, for. drunkenness, was given her liberty. DAUGHTERS DID WELL At the Armouries on Afternoon.
