King George arrived at the G.T.R: station at the foot of 'Johnson street after ten o'clock, and was me: by military officers and a guard of hon- or consisting of 100 picked men of the 14th regiment, Princess of Wales Own Rifles, named after his majesty's illustrious and greatly beloved moth- er, Queen Alexandra. After leaving the station he was driven to a pavilion erected between ths porticos of the city buildings where an immense throgy of people had gathered from city and {ecountryside, and where the civic ad dress of welcome was read by His Worship Mayar Kent, From the city buildings, he and his consort were driven to the gene ral hospital, where they paid a visit to the late Principal Grant, of Queen's university, who lay ill, and the prince ecnierred upon the Queen's principal the CM.GG. order. This act of the prineé won for him the hearts of the people, far it was done of his own desire when he heard that Dr. Grant was unable to greet him the uni- versity, to which his highness' grandmother, Victoria the Good, had granted her royal charter in the yenr 1841. At Queen's, the honorary de- gree of doctor of laws was conferred upon the heir te the British throne by the chancellor, Sir Sandford Flem- ing. From Queen's the royul party sot out for the Royal Military Col- lege, which was. reached about 12.30 o'clock, and there the prince viewed the institution 'thmt has given a num- her of famous soldiers to the imperial army. At Queen's the prince planted a tree in front of the old arts building, and the tree is flourishing. Near it is planted at the time the arts building corner stone was laid in 1879 by his aunt; the Princess Louise, In the Roval Military College build- 'ng hang two signed engravings + of the king and queen, presented by them omwthe occasion of their visit there, The only J 3 LATE LIEUT.COL.

Hugh Spring and Herchimer Hamilton, were marched into Kingston, and attach- 14th for service. At-the evening parade, orders were issued by Lieut.-Col. Paton for the battalion to parade at the drill shed the: following day, at 2 p.m, for the purpose of at- tending divine service at SL. George's church. Shortly after the service bad commenced, an orderly walked up the aisle to the commandant's pew, and handed him a large official envelope, which he at once tore open and read the contents. He made a signal. to the chaplain, who at once pronounced the benediction. "After the battalion formed up out- side, the official order from headguar- ters was read to the men, which was to proceed at omoe, by Grand Trunk railway, to Cornwall. Although it was Sunday, the men could not suppress their feelings and gave a hearty cheer, one Kingston lady to be pre sented to the royal pair on that occasion was Mrs. R. E. Kent, the mayoress of Kingston ten years ago. CONGREGATION NAL ( CHURCH Marked Growth -- Some Figufés are Given, Substantial growth in every depart- ment of the Congregational church in Canada was weported by Rev. W. T.

The instruments of the bund were placed iy the stove de partment, and the baodsmen put in the ranks of the eompanies to which they belonged. It was pearly seven o'clock when the battabion left the drill shed, headed by the Rosxal Canadian rifles bund, to Johnson street, where it bourded the train for Cornwall, The citizens were out, én Mpete, to see th: volunteers away. "At Cornwall the 14th was briguded with! her majesty's 26th King's Own Borderers, 30th and 17th Regiments of foot?

In these days, when so much atten- tion is paid to education, itis not very often_that a person is found who cannot read or write. The records of the Joeal police go to show that during the past year there were fourteen men in the lock- up who gould neither read nor write. It may Not be generally known, but u record is kept concerning each man or woman who happens to fall into the police nets during the year, and the fact of whether he or she ean read or write is always noted. In fact it is one of the first questions a person is asked, as soon as his name has been secured. If the person is giving evidence in the witness box he will be called upon to make a cross (his mark) 'after the evidence has been. taken down by the . magis- trate. It is very seldom, but once in a while, a person appears in the wit ness box in the local police court who is unable to read or write. Ii such is the case he is called upon to make his mark to the evidence the magis- trate has taken down. This of course is regarded as being just as good as if his name were written out, in the sight of the law, but to court offi- cials it is indeed a sad sight to no- tice 'a man, who, when called upon, cannot sign his own name, would aot know it if he ghould see it, and | who could not read his name even if it were in big capital letters. It must be stated thaf the majority of those who are not able to read nor write are among the men who come in to the station and ask hr protection, the men who are out on a "tramp," and who are mot very fond of work. There are some who have had every opportunity of learn ing to rend or write, and again phere are some 'who have been unfortunate According" to the stories told by some of these men they were left homeless when very young, and had to. go out and fight life's battles a lone. This story is true in some cases, but not 80 in others. Nearly all have had a chance sometime in their life to learn to write, even their own name, but thev have allowed the op- portunity to slip by them until they reach middle age or more and then they feel that they ave too old . to learn, There is certainly truth in the. old saying the world does not know other half lives a great deal of that one half how the UNCLE TOM'S CABIN Will be at the Grand Saturday After- | noon and Evening. Stetson's "Unele Tom's Cabin' is mammoth double production of "Un ele Tom's Cabin" which will appear this afternoon and evening at ° the Grand Opera House. The rendition of "Uncle Tom" by this wellknown and well-liked company will mnéver grow old.' This managenent evidently be lieves in the maxim, 'What is worth doing is worth doing well." There runs through this gram story a pathos particularly toucking and sweet. It speaks the umiversal story of the heart. It reflects like a mirror of the innermost phases of the humax emotions. It is more than a play--it It argues for two of the greatest themes that can en- gage the mind--human liberty amd im- murtality of the soul. Notwit the frequent production of this play, it is never prod in the sumptuous manner by other companies as it is in Stetson's. It is like meeting an ol friend after a year's absence.

Picture Show Fee Will be But Fifty Dollars. Moving picture theatre proprietors are going to escape with a yearly license fee of fifty dollars instead of one hundred dollars as at first pro posed. An - order in council to this effect has biden passed, and altera tions must pow be madé in the print ed regulations being issued, The - license fee last year was $25 and in drawing up the regulations this year it was proposed to the fee to one hundred dollars for the year, and to make an operators' license fee $5. The order in council therefore lets the proprietors down with an advance of $25. The opera tors, stead of having to pay five dol lars, now secure a license upon the payment of one dollar. This * amount is payshle no matter when the loenss is taken out, but the proprietor pays only for the proportion of the license year remaining when he starts operas' tions. The order in council that the censoring of firs will not be commenced until July Ist advance also provides Coal Prices in Watertow n, N.Y.
