EASTABROOKS PRESIDENT. Annual Election of the St. Board of Trade. T. H. Estabrooks, proprietor of Red Rose tea, has been elected president of the Board of Trade of St. John, N. By In o city in Canada is the Board of Trade more intimately iden- tified with the ambition and pros- peets, industrial and civie, of the city than in St. John. The St. John Sun says: St. John is fortanate in the men who serveland have served her interests in the presi- dency of the Board of Trade. W, Foster, whose two years term of office came to a close yesterday, has been particularly devoted and active. Un- der his administration the board has largely increased in membership and efficiency. Apnd vn his successor, T H. Estabrooks, the board has secured a man adnirably equipped in public spirit and business energy and ex- perience to carvy along vigorously and progressively the board's work for the upbuilding and development of St, John. In the present cireum- stances Mr. Istabrooks is peculiarly well fitted for the position. By his personal ability and vim he has built up from small beginnings one of the most successful business enterprises in the dominion. One of the chief fac- tors in this success has been exten- sive and intelligent advertising, and Me. Estabrooks, we believe, recognizes this and recognizes also that civic as well as 'private business is capable of development by timilar methods. There is nothing SE John needs more at the present" time than an energe- tic and well-Cireeted campaign of pub- licity, John Kentucky Feud in Kingston. A real old-fashioned Kentucky feud with all the trimmings of love, hatred, horses and shotguns is now on at The Bijou to-day and to-morrow. It recalls the celebrated "Goebil af- fair' and the feud battles of Breath- itt county, Ky. It is entitled "The Pine Ridge Feud," and is splendidly acted. The actors were taken from Chicago down to Kentucky to make this picture, and the scenery i# beautiful as well as realistic. There is another drama, "TH&SAII6Fs Love and a.
